0:31.7 | This is LBC from Global, leading Britain's conversation, Mystery Hour with James O'Brien. |
0:40.4 | It's five minutes after 12. |
0:42.2 | It's your weekly opportunity to achieve the sort of satisfaction |
0:44.5 | not ordinarily available anywhere else on your radio dial. |

1:58.0 | It was from, I think it was Sue, who was talking about the woke roundabout that featured in Woke Watch and said, well, we've had what-aboutery. Now it's time |
