R
34:46Romesh RanganathanHOST
And this is just your look.
R
34:48Romesh RanganathanHOST
This comes up a lot for me on Radio 2, actually.
R
34:52Romesh RanganathanHOST
Because even though I don't think I dress that wackily, for Radio 2 listeners, I'm not fucking Andre 3000 for some reason.
R
35:00Romesh RanganathanHOST
Every time there's a video of me, oh my God, can't he get trousers that fit? Bit of a wacky shirt from Romesh.
R
35:08Romesh RanganathanHOST
I now take that as a badge of honour.
R
35:12Romesh RanganathanHOST
If I wear an outfit and a Radio 2 listener doesn't comment on that being a bit weird, I think someone will say I'm dressing too normally.
R
35:20Romesh RanganathanHOST
People, they do have very set expectations.
R
35:23Romesh RanganathanHOST
Just make it your thing.
Budget Reaction Special
S
34:15Sean FarringtonHOST
Well, with the world of tech these days, Eileen, maybe don't give us too much credit for finding that out quickly.
S
34:22Sean FarringtonHOST
But it's the closest I'll ever get to being a Radio 2 DJ taking requests from people is what was the word map of the Chancellor's budget.
S
34:31Sean FarringtonHOST
Now, you mentioned, Steve, about how all of this can lead to productivity and employment.
S
34:38Sean FarringtonHOST
Part of the array of data we've got, and particularly with the Office for Budget Responsibilities analysis, is what's happening and what has been happening to living standards.
No extras here.. just the main cast..

Mm-hmm.
H
39:22Helen ZaltzmanHOST
The most recent one has him dancing around with Radio 2's Sarah Cox.
H
39:27Helen ZaltzmanHOST
Or he answered me this.
H
39:28Helen ZaltzmanHOST
Have the Einstein family sold his image? Is he copyrighted? And who on earth thinks this is a good idea? What's next? Heisenberg promoting dog food? Niels Bohr selling funeral plans?

But she's released a few albums.

R
44:31Richard DunningGUEST
And they came down to that.
R
44:32Richard DunningGUEST
And just in chatting to them at the show, I said, oh, you know, I've looked at Croydon Radio and there's one thing you don't have.
R
44:40Richard DunningGUEST
You know, Radio 2 has a blues show and you don't.
R
44:44Richard DunningGUEST
They said, what a great idea.

You don't have to go down a particular path, or be someone you're not.

Euro '88 Episode 3 - Matchday Two
G
77:37Gary NaylorHOST
There was local radio and there was, I think, Radio 1 for pop music.
G
77:43Gary NaylorHOST
Radio 2 was easy listening radio channels.
G
77:46Gary NaylorHOST
Three was classical and Radio 4 was highbrow.
G

There was no talk sports or anything like that.
#33 The Jon Richardson Podcast #33 – Featuring Zoe Lyon
J
19:56Jon RichardsonHOST
That was recorded for Radio 1's Top Gear on the 24th of February, 1970.
J
20:00Jon RichardsonHOST
I'm getting right into Radio 2.
J
20:02Jon RichardsonHOST
They're redoing the pirate radio era.
J
20:05Jon RichardsonHOST
So they do like Johnny Walker does his show with all the old sound effects and pretenses out on the boat.
J
20:10Jon RichardsonHOST
They're really good, but then he keeps having to clear up that he's not actually on a boat.
J
20:15Jon RichardsonHOST
And it really, like every half an hour goes, it's Johnny Walker or BBC Radio 2.
J
20:18Jon RichardsonHOST
Of course, we're just reliving the pirate era.
J
20:21Jon RichardsonHOST
We're not actually on a boat.
As soon as you say it….I know it!

If you get this right, you get the fridge magnet.

In what year did Radio 2's kitchen disco queen, Sophie Ellis-Bexter, feature on Groove Jet, if this ain't love, the number one dance anthem by Spiller?
