| 0:00.0 | LBC 97.3, call 084560673. |
| 0:11.0 | Text 84850, tweet at LVC 973. |
| 0:16.5 | This is London's biggest conversation with James O'Brien. |
| 0:23.0 | Three minutes after 12, this is LBC 97.3. |
| 0:26.8 | And this is my favourite, predictably favourite part of the week, |
| 0:31.7 | by which I mean it doesn't take me so by surprise that I enjoy this so much. |
| 0:35.6 | And I do hope you do too. |
| 0:37.0 | If you're new to it, think of it as the radio equivalent of the newspaper columns where readers write in with their mysteries. You know, why do we do this? What's that about? Where does that come from? What's the origin of this? Why do we do that? And I want Olympic-flavored ones as well. Glancing at the switchboard, the Olympic invitation |
| 0:56.7 | has not been taken up as enthusiastically as I might have hoped. By that, I mean, if you've |
| 1:01.6 | seen something during the Olympics, heard something, picked up on something that has baffled you, that |
| 1:06.4 | has befuddled you, that has puzzled you, then I want to know what that question is, and I want to |
| 1:13.2 | get you an answer. Whenever you hear me say the phone number, it means you will, at that specific |
| 1:18.3 | point in time, be able to get a line into the studio. So, 0845-60-60973 is the number to call. It's a busy |
| 1:27.1 | hour, but whenever you hear me say the phone number, |
| 1:29.0 | it does genuinely mean that at that moment in time, there are some gaps or a gap on the switchboard. |
| 1:36.0 | So give me a call now if you've got a question. If you hear somebody else ask a question to which you do actually know the answer, |
| 1:42.4 | then I want you to call in with it. |
| 1:45.0 | That's how it works, really. And you win a wonderful, brand spanking, new, shiny mystery hour. |
| 1:51.0 | Round of applause. |
| 1:53.0 | 0845-60609-73. Anything goes. The only rules we've got, really, repetition and dullness are disapproved of. |
| 2:00.0 | If you ask a question to which we have satisfactorily provided an answer in recent weeks, |
| 2:04.8 | then you will be very politely turned away. |
