| 0:37.1 | Text 84850. Mystery Hour with James O'Brien on LBC. |
| 0:44.9 | Three minutes after 12 is the time, and your weekly opportunity to achieve the sort of satisfaction, not ordinarily available. |
| 0:52.0 | Anywhere else on your radio dial is. |
| 0:54.0 | Now, upon us, if you're new to this, then let me briefly explain how it works. You ring me with a question to which you suspect there must be an answer, but you have thus far been unable to find that answer. Someone else hears you ask the question, and they ring in with the answer. There are only really two rules for mystery. The first is, don't be dull. |
| 1:11.6 | Seriously. Never be boring. It is obviously in the eye of the beholder. We've got a fluid production team at the moment, |
| 1:18.3 | so we will be working on the hoof, turning on a sixpence. But Chris's decision is final. |
| 1:23.3 | If he thinks the question is boring, the question is boring. Please move along without a fight |

So you'll be the one who possibly points out, but don't point it out all the time. and try not to ring in with the qualification for your answer, being that you've heard it before. I'm not selling it well this week, am I? Should we start again? If you have a who, a why, a where, a when, a whither, or even a wherefore, and you need an answer to that inquiry, this is the place to come. 035-06060-9773 is the number that you need. And if we do veer into the realms of repetition a little bit unnecessarily, why don't we chalk it up as a greatest hits? It's five minutes after 12. This is mystery hour on LBC. And I have to say you don't like the boom. If you're just tuning in for reasons that I haven't got the energy to explain, we were thinking of substituting the traditional mystery hour round of applause with a boom, but now we're not going to because the majority of votes have been |
