I can’t wait to air tomorrow’s show because I’ve got a cracking great interview with Tooth & Dagger to coincide with the release of their latest banger, “Survive”. It was a blast hanging out with them.

Surreal moment: listening to @nickabbot.bsky.social on @lbc.co.uk and got name checked by caller Jan who told him about the @radiotimes.bsky.social ‘Face behind the voice’ thing where I said I think he’s brilliant (he is).
