Danny Wallace. Well, hello! You weren't expecting this, were you? Huh? What the heck? A day early? Have they gone mad? What's happened to the world? So you've just crept up behind them at a supermarket. Yeah, and I've gused them. Well, if they were listening to the last podcast and seeing our plugs on... And making their notes. Seeing our plugs on social media, they would be expecting this. Well, you're absolutely right. And obviously listening to the trails and radio X throughout the week as well. So, you know, really, they should They should know. It shouldn't be a surprise. No. It is a surprise and you haven't been doing you work properly. No, I know. I was given them, I was being friendly and avuncular. Yeah, well, sometimes you can't. I once saw a guy I knew talking about creeping up behind people in the town centre. And I like, this'll be fun and he was with someone, hadn't met his wife, so I assumed it was his wife and went up and goost him. I went, oh, hey! It wasn't my friend at all. You mustn't goose people.

Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because sometimes it's still right to have no effort in the room. As long as you don't name it. Yeah. It depends on the room. Depends on the room. It turns on a lot of different factors, a lot of variables involved. But I think that reflecting what is going on in our gentle way is a necessary thing. And as I point out a bit later on,

it's nice that the country seems to have caught up

with my very sort of authoritarian way of doing things.

It feels like this show now makes sense.

Yes, it finally found its climate.

It will move from comedy in the podcast providers, John Wright, into public service broadcast.
