X-M.

Ellis James and John Robbins on X-FM podcast.

That was the man who sold the world by Nirvana.

I am the man who creates radio, John Robbins.

Welcome to X-FM.

I am John Robbins, and to my right is the man Bryn Terfel described as a thorn in my side.

It's Ellis James.

Oh, good morning.

How are you, John?

I'm good, thanks, man.

Top to air, interesting fact, my grandmother once said of Bryn Tervel, he's a good singer, but he's a bad farmer.

That's not true.

Really?

Because she sort of knew someone who knew someone who knew him.

And apparently, because he was brought up on a farm in North Wales.

Apparently, he was terrible at milking in general farm duties.

And he was always going to theatre Chloe to sing opera.

And they were like, oh, God, he'd better make this work because he is a bad farmer.

Did they used to find him in the barn, miming songs with an udder as a microphone?

What sort of songs does he sing?

He's an opera singer, he's a sort of, you know, he's a Premier League opera singer.

Yeah.
