| 0:00.0 | It's not about killer abs or big left jabs, bikini selfies or TikTok fads. |
| 0:05.8 | It's about embracing every wobble, looking funny in goggles, doing the twist and shout and laughing with your mates until a bit of wee comes out. |
| 0:15.0 | It doesn't matter how you move. Just move. Start with just 10 minutes of activity to help boost your energy levels, |
| 0:22.9 | mood, sleep and confidence. Search this girl can. We like the way you move. |
| 0:32.1 | This podcast is sponsored by Magic Radio. So I've had the builders in recently, and I won't lie, we've had a few |
| 0:38.8 | disagreements. Apparently, my obsession with the colour pink is borderline weird. But one thing we've |
| 0:45.0 | totally bonded over is our shared passion for Magic Radio. The truth is everyone loves Magic Radio, |
| 0:51.2 | because there's no other station quite like it. Where else can you |

| 1:26.1 | And when the day winds down, Nikki Chapman brings a soundtrack of |
| 1:29.7 | relaxing favourites on her mellow magic show, ideal if you need to put your feet up after a busy one. |
| 1:36.0 | So thank you, Magic Radio, for the constant daily joy you bring into my life. I wonder if my |
| 1:41.9 | builders are saying the same thing about me. Listen to Magic Radio on your |
| 1:46.3 | digital radio in the free Rayo app or ask your smart speaker to play Magic Radio. Oh, there we go. Oh, |
| 1:53.3 | okay. Of course. Yeah, ways. You do it. Not on me here. No, not on you. He won't be on you, I promise. |
| 2:00.5 | So gentle. This week on Walking on you, I promise. Poor gentleman. |
| 2:02.6 | This week on Walking the Dog, Ray and I took a central London stroll with Radio 1 DJ Charlie Hedges. |
