Summary

Lots of great stuff this week, but mainly just a list of famous Davids. You'll see why. John and Elis explore what is and isn't acceptable to do alone, Elis feels his comedy career has been threatened by a hen party on a train in South Wales, and Xfm's Josh Widdicombe takes a verbal battering from The Golden Voice of John Robins. All this plus the usual Winner Plays On, Sacred Cow, and a Bend It Like Beckham-based Textual Healing. All before the boys prove they don't know how to say goodbye. Catch the show live on Sunday, 10am til 1pm, Xfm.

1:12.9

the sort of critical acclaim that I'm trying to think Robin Cook gets the ex-foreign minister.
