Hello listeners.

Unusually, we are recording on a Saturday evening this week.

Ian, why are we recording on a Saturday evening?

Well, it's all my fault.

I thought I'd improve your entertainment on a Saturday evening.

I know you're going out on the razzle a bit later, so this podcast might be a little bit shorter

than normal. The reason we're now going to have to record on a Saturday evening is because

for the next seven weeks, I will be presenting a Sunday show on LBC between 10am and 12 noon because Nigel Farage isn't

allowed to present anymore and that's because he's obviously taking part in the Euro elections

and under offcom rules if you're a candidate you can't present a radio show so yeah that's what that's

how I'll be spending my Sunday mornings in the future rather than talking to you so people

are going to get even more of us and there's been a fair old amount this week actually hasn't there

we've been i've been i've been whoring myself about like you tend to do most weeks this week with you

in fact well we've been doing some joint-horring haven't we not just on

Good Morning Britain but you made your news night debut to great acclaim I hear on

Wednesday evening so that was good we did podcast live on Sunday I I have only seen

good reactions to that I have to say that I didn't think it was quite the same.

And it never is when we're doing this face to face, is it?

It's there's a different vibe.

But it was because, you know, for people who didn't listen to last weeks, we were recording it in front of actually quite a surprisingly large crowd, I thought,

for 10 o'clock on a Sunday morning, and appreciative.

So you did hear the sort of clapping and laughing.
