Robert Elms on BBC London talking to Ottolenghi about his new cook book. Once again he drags up a story about his vegan daughter coming home and opening the fridge to ask where the hummus is. He said it was just the other day, but she appears to have been doing it for the last ten years. Wayne from Buckhurst Hill is off to see Christina in Brixton according to his manic Insta page.

I thought the same about his old hummus story, in fact I think he's mentioned it to Ottolenghi in the past. I

I wonder where RE is going tomorrow, he asked to be wished luck but he can't talk about it due to it being embargoed. He will miss tomorrow's show.

It wouldn’t surprise me if he’s mentioned it to Ottolengthi in the past. He’s quite often a try hard is Robert. Blimey, I’ve been eating hummus since the late Seventies/Eighties in Greek restaurants in London and in Greece. Maybe they didn’t have hummus in Burnt Oak. 😆
 
Was listening to Robert Elms from the 7 November broadcast because they rebroadcast the Listed Londoner slot with Lionel Blair. It’s the last 30 minutes. It was very funny because the Barbican came up as his most hated building and Bobby is now Bobby from The Barbican. This was before he bought it, of course. Lionel said how can you find it, meaning everywhere in the complex. He tried to defend it saying that a friend of his has a flat there and the inside is all right. Lionel said hmmm it’s all right, meaning the inside of the apartment.

I don’t get the Barbican love. I’d hate to be reliant on those lifts and they don’t allow pets!
 
Grrr. Johnny I’Ansin on 5Live sitting in for Dotun consistently mispronouncing Wisconsin. He keeps saying WiNconsin. It should be pronounced Wuhsconsin.
 
I thought he might have had Covid a couple of months ago when vernon was on by the way he said he wouldn’t be in for the rest of the week without saying he was ill . He’s been odd a lot since although Scott was definitely covering holidays at one point as they tend to have set holidays for rajar figures around school holidays
 
Did anyone hear Rupert an 80 yr old doctor call into Stephen Nolan on 5Live on Friday night, Rupert advocated not vaccinating Care Home residents "as they will be dead soon anyway"
:oops:
Nolan played the call a few times until his show ended.
 
Radio 4 - the Any Questions audience in Presteigne are a noisy lot. Listening to this and will listen to Any Questions afterwards.

Wireless Nights is a good show, Jarvis Cocker goes on late-night walks.
Next instalment is Monday 11pm on Radio4

Ah good tip - sounds my cup of tea.
Another little gem is Bunk Bed, sometimes on at that 11pm slot. Peter Curran and Patrick Marber chatting about all manner of things for 15 mins. It is lovely, witty and sometimes laugh out loud funny. They sometimes have guests, like Kathy Burke. Highly recommended.
(I'm sure it will be on Sounds).
