| 0:00.0 | We don't want to cause a fence. No, we don't want to cause a fence. No, we don't want to cause a fence. Not on a Monday morning. Let's leave it to Wednesday. And then let's absolutely go for it. Welcome back, everybody. This is off air with Jane and Fee. We've been away for a week. So we're highly caffeinated now. |
| 0:22.9 | Jane has got a book of chocolates in front of her where all systems go. |
| 0:26.7 | We've got lots of things, got lots and lots of notices and thank-yus |
| 0:30.0 | and all of that kind of stuff we've got to do. |
| 0:32.3 | So first of all, how are you? |
| 0:34.6 | All right, how are you? |
| 0:35.9 | Very well, thank you. |
| 0:37.1 | How was your week off? |
| 0:38.0 | It was okay. |
| 0:39.7 | Swings and roundabouts. |
| 0:40.8 | Quite glad to be back. |
| 0:42.8 | There was a day when I, basically, last week, |
| 0:46.1 | I just didn't have anything to do except listen to the radio. |

| 0:56.5 | I actually thought I'd be better off in the workplace. |
| 0:58.6 | Was it a day when the war had been finished |
| 1:01.9 | and everything had been sorted out |
| 1:03.3 | and J.D. Vance was on the way |
| 1:04.8 | and then by the close of play |
| 1:06.0 | everything had fallen apart and nothing had been solved |
| 1:08.8 | and we were back to beyond square one. |
| 1:45.9 | Probably one of those days. It's actually hard to keep track at the moment. Yes, it is. One thing you can rely on is that if J.D. Vance goes anywhere, people will tend to do with the opposite of what he'd like them to do. So he didn't actually succeed in changing any minds in Hungary, did he when he was there, not by the sound of things. And then he's failed also to bring peace to the Middle East. And he wasn't popular when he went to Greenland either. No, it's funny that, isn't it? So I can't wait for his book when he retires from office. Diplomacy, the J.D. way. J.D. Your way to international harmony. That's something, I mean, although Donald Trump is clearly a lunatic, there's something just incredibly annoying about Judy fans. |
