What a guest bonanza it was this week! We had five guests come in this week to chat about all kinds of things from making Stephen Hawking laugh, to being on the Traitors, to y’know… being the England football manager.

That’s right, Gareth Southgate was in to talk about his new book Dear England: Lessons in Leadership. He gave us some insights into what his career really looked like behind the scenes, from being a young inexperienced manager at Middlesbrough F.C., to facing the pressure of taking England to the finals.

We also had Kate Garraway in the studio chatting about all things Celebrity Traitors. She spoke about how much trickier it was actually being on compared to being a fan and watching the show at home. She also spoke on how helpful it was for her mentally, being able to throw herself fully into the show after going through such challenging times recently.

Friend of the show, Alex James from Blur was also in to chat about his upcoming slew of dates for his incredible Britpop Classical. Russell Howard also spoke about his upcoming dates and the thrill he gets from seeing his friends succeed in their own varied careers. Edgar Wright was also in this week, promoting his upcoming film The Running Man. He spoke about the process of his film’s creation, from his inception of the idea when he was fourteen, to the film’s eventual release. He also told of a curious superstition he has regarding his movies’s premieres. 

Keep an ear out for loads of other silly bits in this week’s episode:

  • Polly’s student radio video
  • Chris and Dom’s wee adventures 
  • Dom’s uncle's rifle polishing

Enjoy!
