Things we talked about today…
Whistling Jen took over the show today.. Jen called in and had a random request for us: “If I whistle you a tune can you ask your listeners if they know what it is? I’ve not been able to pin point it and its been nagging me for years!” Our listeners got on it, and after about an hour of false alarms including Looney Tunes and Popeye, Dave called in and asked Laura and David to look for the People Like Polo advert. Well, well, well… we only went and found it! Years of relief has now lifted from Jens shoulders, and an hour of being bamboozled paid off for the listeners.
Laura struggled to pronounce Joaquin Pheonix in the showbiz, so Google pronounced in instead – incorrectly as Jacoocoo. Helpful.
And in a Radio Times Poll, Chucklevision has been named the best and most popular Childrens TV show so Laura and David asked for the listeners favourite – Looks like Fraggle Rock and Blue Peter were our winners!
