on LBC.

Three minutes after 12 is the time. You're listening to James O'Brien on LBC, where we turn our attention next to the great mysteries of our time.

We generally solve political and philosophical mysteries on this program, but today we are solving, well, every Thursday, we solve any sort of mystery you want.

Silly, serious, sublime, stupid. They all count. Well, maybe not completely stupid.

There are a couple of rules. Allow me to remind you what they are. Rules are governed by

repetition and these two questions that you've got coming up first are absolutely rubbish.

I'm going to insist upon a, just clear the board and start again. The dullness and the

repetition arguments are these. So, if... Now let

Mohammed on, actually. That one might work. But Daniela,

I don't know if that one's going to work.

Should stop doing this as an internal dialogue, shouldn't I, and remember

that you might not actually know how mystery works. Mystery how it works.

The way it works is this.

You have a little question bubbling away in the back of your mind that needs an answer.

You know how you ask it.

You dial 034-6-0-60-9-7-3.

If someone listening knows the answer, they ring the same number and give it to you.

Everyone's a winner.

But if it's boring, don't ring in, all right?

I'm, is it, I don't know, last time I did this, I used someone as an example of a boring question.

I felt really bad afterwards because it wasn't really fair.

So I won't do that again.
