Jo & Sparky ”Off the Radio”

Happy Monday, Duckies! We recorded this the day after a day session with the old radio crew. We met up in Nottingham with Producer Harvey! All the goss from that. Jo calls out Sparky for trying to casually "cool up" being a National Trust member. We get gardening advice, money-saving train advice and an easter egg bargain that might not be that much of a bargain. We have had some great claims to fame come in. You won't believe what someone has done for Andre Rieu in a hotel in Nottingham. Sparky went to a birthday party with Moana, and it wasn't what he expected. Of course, we have a game of Guess the Year and Kids Tell Fibs. And today may be the final episode with vom story (Some people will be breathing a sigh of relief) Thanks for listening- Remember, you can get more if you subscribe to our Patreon.
