I am talking with you today. You're talking to me. It's a phone in. How exciting. How wonderfully exciting. How glorious. I'll give you the details in a couple of minutes time. It's Wednesday, October 9th, 2024. It's the BBC. This is your Richie Allen show, live from the magnificent city of Salford.

It's the Richie Allen show.

Broadcasting live on richie Allen.combe.

And multiple platforms around the world.

And now, here's your host, Richie Allen.

Now, if you don't have the contact details for me by now, you don't deserve a car.

You don't deserve a car or a phone.

They're out there in the ether, but you can find them.

They are on the most recent tweet of mine.

I'm BBG Richie on Twitter.

BBC Richie, after I run down the news headlines of the day, I'll be taking your calls.

There's a couple of ways of doing it then.

Let's let you have it.

You can phone, you can WhatsApp. WhatsApp is good. You've all got

WhatsApp, so connect to me via WhatsApp.

It's your call. Phone 0161, 818, 2018. WhatsApp on 07565-942-270. Or Skype with Richie talk to Richie now yeah that was all very quick

wasn't it so the WhatsApp then is 0756-59-4-2-270 as I said the details are on the top of my Twitter thing, chatting with you in about

25 minutes or thereabouts, if you fancy it, that is. The first phone in since we've gone back

to the 5 to 7 slot, which is nice, isn't it? Isn't it just? Listen, if you're in Florida,

be well, be safe.

Talk about it in a moment. In fact, you might want to give me a ring if you're in Florida.

If you were told you should leave and go to a shelter somewhere in a football stadium or somewhere away from the coast, you might want to talk to me. You might not.
