Hello and welcome to Tuesday's Radio 1 all day breakfast podcast with me, your host, Greg James.

So today's breakfast show, we had a really fun round of nan things. We debriefed Mega Massive Monday's, whatever it was called, Battle Tracks. Plus we had yesterday's quiz. We got you up to date with all the latest things. We had a celebrity listener as a footballer, footballer listener.

And, um... Oh, yeah, we did a really fun bit with everyone trying to do impressions of Pitbull. Basically Pitbulling your day. But let's start with the very first bit of today's breakfast show. Good morning! Welcome to Tuesday! Thank you, Pete, for your news. Thank you, Dean, for your show. And welcome, everybody. Hope you're good. I'm going to play Lola Young in a matter of minutes. I'm going to play Jo with End of Beginning. Dochi coming up. Yesterday's quiz as well. Feeling good today.

Very much enjoyed the conclusion of Mega Massive Battle Tracks yesterday. We'll go through some of the highlights just after 7.40 and reveal the winner to you. If you missed it, it was a dramatic conclusion. Really good twist at the end as well. I was just listening to the thing that I just played about Europe's biggest gig. There's such an opportunity there for Mischief. And I really, I would love to change...

I wasn't expecting the word gig is all I was saying. Iceland. Germany. Belgium. Ireland. The UK. Europe's biggest gig. In 11 hours. I was convinced it was going to be a part of your anatomy. The search is on, guys. We found it. Oh, good.

Hello, I am Hans. I am the owner of Europe's Biggest... Oh, dear. Sadly, we can't re-edit that because that would be the end of me. But what a way to go. Bex in Derby says, I thought it said Europe's Biggest Pig. Maybe we should find Europe's Biggest Pig, she says. I would love to clear the decks today, do nothing else, and just prioritise that until 10.30. Can we find Europe's Biggest Pig? Europe's Biggest Pig!

If you have pig in your head, she's saying pig. Europe's biggest pig. Speaking of which, Tom the Young Farmer could help out. He's just returned from Australia and says, I'm in good spirits after a month in Oz. A real sense of good things ahead. Lovely. Got any pigs? I don't care about how Australia was. Do you have any pigs? Let me know. If so, how big are they? What's considered a big pig? How heavy's a pig?

What was that? I mean, my dog's like 35 kilograms. A couple of hundred? A couple of hundred kilograms. 1,000 kilograms. Ton. It's the biggest pig. What, in the world? Yeah. Bring me the head. Well, not the head. The whole... Bring me the head of the biggest pig. And also the body, attached and alive. Where is that pig? Dead. Okay. Sorry. Dead.

Okay. Someone had a good feast. All right, let's... I think we do need to specify that the pig is alive. That's what we need. Anyway...

Yes, someone else says... Richard in Hertfordshire says, how about Radio 1's pig weekend? Excellent. We'll get all the biggest pigs together and that will just be the line-up. And we just walk them out on the main stage. We'll cancel Sam Fender and we'll just get loads of pigs on the stage. Hi, Greg, I'm a pig trader. I also own a pig farm. On average, the sows are 150 kilograms. I have seen them up to 350. Male pigs I've seen up to 550 kg. And, um...

Down in London. He says his... How best to say that? Appendages? A part of his anatomy that is low-hanging, he said, was at 1.16 kilograms. Okay. Big brave boy. And now, let's pitbull your day. Tomorrow on the show, after 8.30, Mr. Worldwide, Mr. 305, checking in, checking out, pitbull, darling. He is on...

He's on with me tomorrow. We've got him, finally. Finally, we've managed to get Pitbull onto The Breakfast Show and it will happen tomorrow morning. A lot of people are currently having a Pitbull awakening. And one of the reasons for this is that he hasn't played in the UK for 20 years. That's why everyone was going so mad for it last Friday in London and Dublin the week before. It's because it doesn't happen.

He's not been here for a long, long time. He's Mr. Worldwide. He's busy. The world is big. But he's finally remembered about us. And on Friday night, he was, as we've been talking about, it was a sensational show. We just hadn't had the chance to ever see it live. So you hear the songs, you're like, oh yeah, Pitbull, yeah, we get it. It's funny. But no, it's actually good. And the show is also full of wisdom. Life is not a waste of time. And time is not a waste of life.

So let's not waste any time, get wasted tonight and have the time of your life.

Yeah, he loves his word played as pitbull. But I've realized there is a basic formula. It's just the old switcheroo, isn't it? It doesn't matter what you wear, it's how you wear it. Yeah, it doesn't matter what you wear, it's how you wear it. It doesn't matter what you wear, it's how you wear it. It's a switcheroo. If we don't take that risk, it's the biggest risk that we take. Right, great. So make sure you do risk and then just reverse it. You may have a plan. It never plans out. But somehow, ironically, it plans out.

Right. It makes no sense, but loads of sense. I make money, money don't make me. Right, there's another good one. I make money, money don't make me. Okay, fine. I sort of don't know what you mean, but also I do. Utilise technology, don't let it use you. Right, great. Don't utilise... Utilise technology, don't let it use you. Utilise technology, don't let it utilise you. It's quite hard to follow sometimes, some of those.

I think this morning you could pitbull your day. What are you doing right now but do it in the style of pitbull? Because remember, drink your coffee. Don't let the coffee drink you. Okay? Just remember that. And like my job here, I play the songs and not let the songs play me. Okay? If you're on the school run, be on the school run. Don't let the school run you. Yeah? No, it's important to remember those things. So what have we got? Your day...

But as Pitbull... I'm strategising my day, not letting it strategise me, darling. Great start.

Chris is in Manchester. I'm on the drive to work. I don't let work drive me. Dale. Very good. Very good one. Mr. East Anglia here. Off the wire house. Don't let the house wire you. Dale. It's good. My favourite bit about that one is he calls himself Mr. East Anglia. Mr. East Anglia here. Off the wire house. Don't let the house wire you. Dale. All right, what's next? Spread your toast in the morning. Don't let it spread you. Mr. 305, dale.

Gabby's next. The sun is shining, but don't let the sun outshine you, darling. Oh, that's my favourite so far. Gabby, that's something that he would say. The sun is shining, but don't let the sun outshine you, darling. Yeah. The sun ain't shining, be your own sunshine. Jade. Get in the gym. Don't let the gym do you, darling. Oh, doesn't quite work, because it feels like...

It feels like, because you're saying gym and I'm not reading it, it sounds like that's a man. Get in the gym. Don't let the gym do you. Oh dear. Darling. Careful with that one, Jade.

What else? Put makeup on your face. Don't let your face put makeup on you, darling. Put makeup on your face. Don't let... Hang on. Put makeup on your face. Don't let your face put makeup on you, darling. Yeah, I mean, it's good advice. Yeah, very good. What else? Just because you're sitting in traffic don't mean traffic's got to sit you, darling. It doesn't work with all of them. It doesn't work with all of them. Rob! Today, I'm going to sell to these customers. These customers ain't going to sell me.

Yeah, that's good. Don't let the customers sell you. That would be bad. I'm wearing my lip gloss, but I won't let the lip gloss wear me, darling. It's great. It's been so nice to hear people lose confidence as they do it.

But this is, as we're finding, it's not as easy as Pitbull makes it sound. Me not working hard. Yeah, right, picture that with a Kodak. How better yet? Go to Times Square, take a picture of me with a Kodak. Also, I'll never get over him rhyming Kodak with Kodak. I need to bring this up with him. I'm emptying the bins. The bins don't empty me, darling. Good one. Whoever sent that in. A couple more then, come on. I'm plastering the wall. The wall's not plastering me, darling.

Let's pitbull your day. Baking a birthday cake. The birthday cake ain't baking me, darling. You're getting the hang of it, yeah? I'm listening to the radio. The radio, don't listen to me, darling. Right, good. Another one. Take a picture with a Kodak. Don't let that Kodak take a picture on you, darling. LAUGHTER

Yeah, still good. Caroline is in our favourite place in the world. She's in Deeping St. James. It's good, isn't it? Straighten your hair so your hair don't straighten you, dolly. Yeah, good. Well, you could do a Deeping St. James one. Hang on. Oh, no, maybe I shouldn't. No, I will. I'm Deeping St. James. I don't want to listen to James Deep Me. And while we're on the subject of Mr. 305, Mr. Worldwide, chicken in, chicken out, dolly.

Let's welcome a celebrity listener. I got a message just after the breakfast show, or I saw it after the breakfast show, from a famous footballer who listens regularly. And that means we have a celebrity listener. I haven't done this for a while. Let's see if I've still got it. There's a celebrity that's listening to the show. There's a celebrity listening to the show right now. Which one is it? There's so many of them. Celebrity listener. Celebrity listener.

It's Spurs and England footballer Bethany England. Bethany! Good morning, Greg. Good morning. Welcome to the Radio on Breakfast show. You sent me this amazing message that said, basically, so you listen to the show whenever you can. Yeah, no, so I listen pretty much every morning drive on my way into work and I'm a massive fan of the show.

This is so cool. An actual lioness listening to the show. That gives the show some credibility, finally. So, Bethany, welcome to it. You said that you like listening to yesterday's quiz. You enjoy the space updates with Sean Moondez, which will make his day, because that's a really nice bit of the show. But also, the most exciting bit of your message, where were you on Friday night? I was seeing Pitbull live at the O2, and it was possibly one of the best nights of my life. LAUGHTER

Now, is Pitbull on often when you're training? Is it allowed in the dressing rooms? He is, yes. And I literally played him to death last week. I think the girls had had enough of me because it's all I played in the changing rooms leading up to the weekend. Did

Do they understand your fandom of Pitbull as well? Have you got allies in the dressing room? There's a few, but there's also a few that got sick of it by the end of it, but it's fine. I'll take the heat on that. Which song, as you're about to run out and play for Spurs or England, what song would be the song that you'd like to hear? Because we'll get it queued up for you. What is your Pitbull jam? I would say...

Timber is probably one of my favourite ones. Okay, yeah, that is a good one. So how did you find the gig? Let's get the review of the Pitbull show from an actual lioness. So, Bethany, what did you make of the show? I felt like it was just a constant party, to be honest. I feel like for three hours straight, nobody sat down in their seat once and that it was just...

pure vibes everywhere and it was honestly a very lucky moment to feel that I was part of that special time at the O2. Yeah, it felt like we were part of a cult, didn't it, in that moment? Were you wearing a bald cap, by the way? Sadly, I wasn't. I thought about it, but I didn't think I could pull it off as well as you did, so I didn't, but it was amazing to see the amount of baldness everywhere in the arena. Yeah.

A lot of baldness. There's going to be a lot of baldness tomorrow. He's going to be on The Breakfast Show with me tomorrow morning after 8.30, by the way. I'm so excited for it. That's pretty amazing, yeah. And obviously, I'm announcing his new tours as well in June. That is even more amazing. Yeah, the news has just come out, hasn't it? He's going to be in London and he's doing Manchester as well. Yeah, unfortunately, I'd love to go, but that's the same weekend I'm getting married, so I don't think my...

I'd be best pleased if I missed the wedding for Pitbull. Well, I don't know about that. I mean, congratulations on that. But also, maybe it is... Maybe it could be... It's not too late to change the date, I'd say. You can come perform at the wedding. It's fine. So, one of the things I noticed at that show was that there was a lot of wisdom from Pitbull. And on this morning's breakfast show, we were doing the Pitbull wisdom in the style of him. So, he does things like... It doesn't matter what you're wearing. It's how you're wearing. Yeah, he basically just flips things around. So... If we don't take that risk...

It's the biggest risk that we take. Yeah, so what we were doing earlier was getting the listeners to send in their ones. I don't know if you heard this because you're... Are you on the way to training now? I'm currently on my way to work, yeah. I've just pulled over so that I'm being safe whilst I'm talking to you. On the way to work, but your job is a footballer. It's not. It's a bit like me saying that this is work. It's not really work, is it? Yeah. I like to kid myself that it's work. I'm on the way to work. Anyway, we'll let you get to work in a second. What time does training start then? About 10 o'clock I'll be in today. Okay, all right.

So the listeners are coming up with their own pitbull wisdom. Have a listen to this. The sun is shining, but don't let the sun outshine you, darling. That's good. Today, I'm going to sell to these customers. These customers ain't going to sell me.

Straighten your hair so your hair don't straighten you, darling. Bethany, have you got one? Have you got like a lioness one that you could do for us in the style of Pitbull? The best one I can give you is I play the game, the game doesn't play me. Yes, absolutely. So Pitbull on the show tomorrow morning at 8.40. Bethany, while you're on, can I ask, I'm just going to be bold here and ask, if you don't ask, you don't get it.

Can we get the lionesses on yesterday's quiz? I'm not sure how many of the other girls listen in, but I can maybe ask around and see. Get them. Get them in. They'll have a nice time. Tell them that it's a nice thing to listen to. They'll have a great time. They'll be great at yesterday's quiz, no? I think they would be great, but it's a very early start. So unless half of them are awake, I'll have to let you know on that one. Okay. So it's a maybe? It's a maybe, yes. Yes. Okay. Bethany, nice to chat to you. And...

Thanks for being on the show finally. And you can get back to listening to it and then you've got to get... I don't want you to be late for training. So we'll play Pitbull and Kesha and get you on your way and we'll catch up soon. Okay. Thanks very much, Greg. Take care. Cheers. And now some Nan things. Oh, Nan. What's your thing? What's your thing? What's your thing? Some great ones standing by.

Let's go to Scott in Brum to begin with. When your nan always would say, three rings when you get home on the landline, and she'd answer after one ring. And then tell you off. I said three. Yeah, but you are in control of that now. I said three rings. This is costing now. Elle, good morning. Hello, Greg. Hello, and welcome to Nan Things, a celebration of nanas. What have you got for me?

So a couple of things. My husband's nan thing is that his nan's favourite restaurant on any occasion would be the local garden centre, without fail. And my nan thing is that whenever it was my birthday or Christmas, my nan would throw some random coppers into a card for me. So I think on my 18th birthday, I had 32 pence for my birthday.

The garden thing has unlocked such an amazing memory for me. Yeah, what a treat. Oh, my God. What a birthday treat. That is it. If we were to go visit them in half term or summer holidays or whatever, in Weymouth, it would always be...

Should we go to the garden centre for lunch? What would you have to eat? Would it always be the fish and chips? Yeah, fish and chips. But my granddad loved, he loved ham, egg and chips. Oh, yeah. Oh, that's a very granddad thing. Very granddad thing. And also he, I know it's nan things, but actually they both, they were both partial to scampi. Of course. They love scampi. Oh, my God. Old people love scampi. They love it.

They love Scampi. I think maybe because if they're of that age and they're post-war, they're just like, well, they live through the war. Once you reach a certain age, you start liking Scampi. That's when you know you've hit the OAP zone. Yeah, I wouldn't choose it as first choice. I'd go for it. But it's also, I think it was very special for them. It was like, what's this? Mystery fish. It's a real treat. It's mystery fish.

So when you get to a certain age, there's a few rules here. So scampi.

I think also you like gardening. You become good at gardening and baking cakes. Yeah. Well, I think with the gardening thing, it's specifically you get one of those things to stop your knees hurting. Oh, yes. My mother's got that. See, I think that's the bit. People of all age like gardening, but I think it's the knee thing. It's the equipment, I'd say. Yeah. Well, I actually was recommended one a little while ago when I was trying to prune my bush outside the front of the house, and I'm only 37. Oh.

I hope the neighbours didn't mind. Oh, good one! Nan things continue. Oh, actually... What's your thing? What's your thing? What's your thing? Oh!

We've actually, Al, got another money-based one here. My nan thing is when I was little, birthday's all Christmas, she used to get a fiver. She used to wrap it in tinfoil and then put it in the car. Yeah, that's good. You've got to keep it safe. What else have we got here? One time for Christmas, me and my sister got one of every coin. So from one P up to two pound coin. Yeah, they thought that we'd be really excited about it, but really we've just been giving...

£3.88 for Christmas. Yeah, but £3.88 in a very creative, imaginative way. When I used to ask my nan her age, she used to say, as old as my tongue and just a little older than my teeth. Good one from Emily in Surrey. My nan pronounces words wrong. My two personal favourites, sat-nab for a sat-nav and codice.

For COVID. CODIS! Can you plumb the address into the... into the... what does she call it? The sad... sad...? My nan pronounces words wrong. My two personal favourites. Satnab. Can you plumb it into the satnab? Jen in Leeds says, "My nan used to mix up words all the time. "She once wanted to compliment my new Doc Martin boots "and told me that I had a lovely pair of knockers." Thanks, Jen.

Craig says, "Nan-thing. A doily under everything, rooms full of doilies and net curtains everywhere." Very good. Alex in Nottingham says, "Hi, Greg. My grandma used to... loves to steal the tiny packets of butter from restaurants just in case... just in case she needs them." Again, I do think that is... again, that's a wartime thing. I do think it is. You never know when you might run out, you know. What have we got? Katie, hi!

Welcome to Nan Things on the Raider and Breakfast Show. What have you got for me? So my Nana comes out with these little one-liners that we have coined Nana-isms. So whenever she comes out with one, we'll go, oh, there's another Nana-ism. But one of the ones we particularly always come back to is 37 isn't old for a man. What? Exactly.

Exactly. Like, that doesn't really make any sense. It's good. It's a good one. What's your Nana's name? Is she still with us? Yeah, she is. She lives in Ireland. She's called Bernadette. Bernie. Bernie. Great name.

How about some of these then? I've listened to these, Katie. So my nan thing is trying to guess what weird and wonderful presents she would get me and my cousins. One year she got me a massive, like five kilo tub of dead mealworms so I could feed the birds. Wow. Oh my gosh.

How about this? We stay in the garden here. My nan presents things wrong. She doesn't say gnomes. She has goms in her garden. Not gnomes, they're goms. That present one does remind me, actually. I do remember a time when, I think it might have been this Christmas or Christmas before, she'd got my partner these spicy marinades for chicken and she went, I don't think you like spicy things, but I thought they looked nice. LAUGHTER

Here's a nice thing for you, says Lisa, the health and safety officer from Cambridge. She says, saying thank you to cash machines. Thank you. I'd also like to add also, not trusting banks.

That was my Nan. Never trusted the banks. She'd always rather have the cash. We love Nan things. It was really good to do this with Ricky, Melvin and Charlie as well. They had some good ones. Morning, Greg. My Nan. Give us a go. If she saw you and she felt like you'd put on weight, she'd sing this song. Fat girl in sweet puddings. We don't know what it means, but that's what she used to do.

That's brilliant. I love that song. My nan used to have a Yorkshire Terrier dog called Bruce. We used to love him. But he was so protective of my nan, especially her handbag. So if she didn't like someone, she'd go, oh, just pass something out of my purse. And if you went to reach for it, the dog would just come out of nowhere. Yeah.

It was the funniest thing ever. It's a trap. That's great. It's little booby traps around the house. That's good. Charlie? My nan, oh my God, miss my nan so much. My nan, she was 94 when she passed away two years ago and we used to make a joke with her and say, nan, you're only a few years off from getting a letter from the Queen at the time. She'd be like, oh, gold. I don't want to get that letter. I don't want to live to 100. LAUGHTER

She'd be the best. She always talked about her age and she... Yeah, I feel like she thought she was younger than what she was. We used to get Nanny P on the radio, didn't we? Oh, my God, she was on all the time. Yeah, we'd put her on the radio. My nan did manage to get to 100. Really? And this was a couple of years ago and she...

She was annoyed because she turned 100 and outlived the Queen. And she was annoyed that her card came from Charles. That's brilliant. See, I bet your nan and mine are best friends up there. She was like, I don't really like Camilla. That's brilliant.

I've got a video which will never see the light of day, but it goes around the family WhatsApp quite often. How about this one? This is quite good as well. My nan sounds things wrong. She doesn't say gnomes. She has goms in her garden. I'm going to go and arrange the gnomes. Brilliant. Time now for all the latest things. First, we go to a video that has gone madly viral. And I sort of want to find this person.

because I feel really sad for them. Someone has a phone number that is one digit away from a local takeaway shop and at two in the morning they got a message from a disgruntled customer.

who obviously dialed the incorrect code. 2am. I ordered a kebab and garlic mushrooms and onion rings tonight. Ordered them yesterday as well. Both nights, they've not been delivered. Why is this? What I will say is actually he didn't need that. I think we've saved him from himself. Do you have a grudge against me? Have I done something to upset you? I don't know. Please let me know what I've done wrong, thanks.

By the way, that is like some of the texts you send me on here. Well, you haven't given me a shout-out for three weeks now. It's very Curtin from this country, isn't it? I'm utterly raging now. Please will you find that man? I feel sad. Find that man and I'll send him a takeaway. Send him a kebab.

He was very polite as well, wasn't he? Next up, we go to the very, very important. Guys, it's awards season. It's very important that millionaires get their awards. It's the SAG Awards. The Screen Actors Guild. That's what that stands for. SAG. SAG.

So they had celebs doing funny bits on stage, including Kiki Palmer, who played a Law & Order drinking game. You know, Law & Order is one of those shows that sort of every actor in the whole world has appeared in at some point. It's like the American Midsommar Murders. It has actors on the way up and obviously, therefore, on the way down. So here's her game. All right, who's been a guest star on Law & Order? Take a drink now. I'm looking at you, Zoe. And

Wasn't you the one that killed your mama in that one episode? Loved the performance.

So basically everyone in the whole room took a drink, including Timothee Chalamet, who appeared on the show back in 2009. Timothee also won an award that night, Best Actor for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown. He's become the youngest person ever to win the award and did a really nice speech, actually. I'll start by thanking my mother, who I'm here with tonight. The truth is, this was five and a half years of my life. I poured everything I had into playing this incomparable artist, Mr. Bob Dylan, and it was the honour of a lifetime. Very nice.

Always thank you, Mum. Always thank you. Colin Farrell was also a winner for The Penguin. Jamie Lee Curtis announced the award and decided it was a good opportunity to get her own back. The actor goes to the man who gave me COVID at the Golden Globes.

Colin Farrell. Great burn. Great burn. So we go from the SAG Awards to the Oscars that are happening on March the 10th. Now, it's been heavily rumoured that Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo will be performing a wicked medley. The internet was full of rumours about this. Both of them have been asked about it. Cynthia was quite firm. I don't know where that has come from. I've never...

I have no idea where it's coming from. It's a lovely idea. And if it happens, great. But I don't know where it comes from. As soon as everyone saw that video, everyone went, liar, you're lying, you know you're doing it. It's very Linda from The Traitors. Oh, my God. Who the hell is not going to come back? Oh, no, I don't know who possibly could be performing at the Oscars. So that was Cynthia's very hard line on it. Ariana Grande didn't hold it together quite as well. My take on this...

What did Cynthia say? What did Cynthia say? It is definitely happening now. They will be performing at the Oscars alongside Ray. That's a big look for Ray to be performing there as well, alongside Doja Cat and Lisa from Blackpink. That is all happening on the 10th of March. And with that, you're up to date with all the latest things.

And last but not least, a quiz. And here's Ben. Hi, Greg. Good morning. How are you? Very well, thank you. How are you? Pretty good. Yes. Well, 16 minutes into the show, we've launched a search for Britain's, sorry, Europe's biggest pig, which is a good start to the show, I think. I keep my eyes peeled. Thank you very much. Well, you are rural. You're in Herefordshire, aren't you? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're not going further, yeah. Get out there. Get out there and have a little look.

Well, Ben, before you do search for a big pig, we're going to do yesterday's quiz. So yesterday we spoke to Sam, lovely Sam, who is part of the cricket team, Woolhope Cricket Club. I think he maybe underplayed the team a bit yesterday, saying that you were sort of a ramshackle group of villagers just playing cricket. But actually, you're the captain of the first 11, so you're pretty decent, are you?

No, I think Sam hit the nail on the head, to be fair. But yes, I know I am. Yeah, we enjoy it. We don't take it too seriously. So it's good fun. Although you do have to take it seriously because you're sort of in charge of the logistics and getting the team together and wrangling everyone on a Friday and Saturday night to make sure they make up the numbers and stuff. It's quite a stressful job. Yeah, it can be. Yeah, Friday nights aren't fun all the time, to be fair. And also you've been recovering from quite an important operation for cricket purposes. Yeah.

Yeah, I was without one shoulder for six months or so. So yeah, I had the opter in the cricket season, which didn't go down too well with everyone. But yeah, that's it. I'm firing now. Have you had a net? Have you done some practice already yet? Yeah, no, we had our first indoor net last night, actually. Oh yeah, of course you did. Yeah, I remember Sam saying so. Are you feeling achy today?

Yeah, there was a few sore bodies. I think there was a bit of early season rust, I think. But it was good to get everyone in the same room, really. Well, thanks for being on the quiz today. We've got 90 seconds on the clock. A load of questions about stuff that happened yesterday. Ben, are you ready? Yep. Let's go. Dingers, please. There we go. Question number one is this. It was reported that Witch Shake It Off and Love Story singer is working on new music inspired by her boyfriend.

Taylor Swift. Yes. Sheffield United played which neighbouring northern team in the championship last night? Leeds. Yes, they did. Leeds United. It's a new double-decker plane came with warnings about a fart zone. Give me your best impression of someone letting rip at high altitude. I'm going to stop the clock there. That was an incredible fart noise.

That's really got Henry, he loves farts. Henry, that was amazing, wasn't it? How many points do you want to give him for that? Can I give him four? Four! You can, you can. Ben, that was really amazing. It really pierced through the speakers. So, well done. Well done, you. Let's start the clock again. Which Fireball singer and legendary baldy was I talking about on yesterday's breakfast show?

Pitbull. It was pitbull. Scientists discovered a three billion year old what on the surface of Mars? A beach or the musician Mick Jagger? A beach. It was a beach, yes. It was National Playing Tennis Day yesterday. What did you used to hit a tennis ball with? A tennis racket. Yes. Lizzo was teasing new music, but what kind of drink has she previously sung about? Was it juice or sherry? Sherry. No, it was juice. It's not manan. A gorilla was filmed practising beating which part of its body yesterday?

Chess. Chess is correct. What time was it at this time yesterday? 7.19. It was 7.19. Gaga revealed her new album was influenced by what? Ballroom culture or the EastEnders character Sharon Watts? Ballroom culture. It was ballroom culture, yeah. Baker made a life-sized recreation of what from Rice Krispies? Queen Elizabeth I or The Magic Roundabout in Milton Keynes? Queen Elizabeth. It was Queen Elizabeth I, yes. A fitting tribute. A solar flare may cause radio blackouts. Name me something I could do with that time off.

What was that? If the radio is blacked out, what could I do with my time off? Go to the pub. Yeah, could go to the pub, definitely. Or just go and have a cricket net. That's what I'd like to do. Yeah, good idea. It was revealed... We'll do one more question. It was revealed a pothole hadn't been fixed for 18 years. But is that pothole older than Olivia Rodrigo?

No. No, only just good answer, yeah. She's 21. The fart hole's 18. Some very strange questions today, but some very good answers. And you nailed it today, Ben. Thank you for being on. With those four points for the fart, it's 15. You're in the lead.

Oh, wow. Yeah. That's fun. Thanks very much. A captain's innings. Very, very good. Thanks for being on this morning. And we will replay that sound effect many, many times over. Ben, have a great day. And we'll catch up with you later in the week. No doubt you'll be in the final. OK, so speak to you later in the week. Great. Cheers, Greg. Cheers. Have a good day. Actually, there is one more thing, and it's the Mega Massive Monday debrief. I'm going to play you the winning track from yesterday's Mega Massive Battle Tracks. What a day yesterday. It was very tense.

There was a lot of arguing, but it was nice for everyone to hang out. And you'll hear in a second, my favourite contestant actually wasn't the winner. My favourite contestant who really went in, got stuck in, was Danny Diston. Danny got so cross yesterday.

At one point I had to sort of calm her down. She went, "Love, they won't let me change the track and I'm just not ready for that one." And she really, the commitment was fantastic. So, Mega Massive Battle Tracks. Matt and Jerry do this on their show, well, Matt and Molly do this on their show, but Jerry's covering for Molly at the minute. So it was DJs going head to head all day. They would pitch a song and then you would have to decide which one you wanted to hear. Let's follow Matt Edmondson's journey.

Started with Matt Edmondson versus Charlie Hedges. Listener Lexi was the judge. This was basically this time yesterday. Matt brought out some sneaky tactics immediately, as is his way, and brought in the big guns. Gregory, I believe you have a little clip. Charlie, I absolutely adore you. You know that. But I know Matt's track and it has to be played out today. He disturbed a woman on her maternity leave. I'll just let that sit with you for a second.

So the winner of that round... The fact that Matt got Molly on, I love that. And she is an absolute queen of pop. So, OK, my decision, even though it overran a little bit, I've got to go with Matt's 2013. Hopefully top banger. Matt Edmondson wins the first round. Yeah, his little smug face getting a little smugger every time.

Matt made it to the semi-finals against Dean McCulloch and they were asked to pick a dance banger. The power was left in listener Matt's hands. So going from that, I'm really sorry, Dino. That's all right. It's all yours. No way. So Matt makes it through. So Danny Diston, meanwhile, was facing off against Vicky Hawksworth in the other semi-final, also picking a dance banger. And the two created a truce. This is a truce.

This was the idea. Whatever happens, you know, we can't let Matt Edmondson win this because it's his feature. So hopefully, look, I do want to win. But if you do take the win right now, as long as Matt doesn't win, that's where I'm at. That's how good I feel. Okay. We were all united against Matt Edmondson to the point where just before I went home, because I was sort of hanging around listening to it, um...

I said to one of the producers that was in charge, I went, if you want me to be the final listener, I can do a voice and make sure that Matt doesn't win. Turns out we didn't need it. Three listeners on the line to pick whose pitch was their favourite. It was a one-all tie, so the decision was in Dave's hands. Oh, my God. I think it's going to have to come down to...

My fellow Boltonian. Hang on. It's yours. We did it, guys. We beat him at his own game. I can't believe it. You said you were going to leave the Bolton thing at the door. He knows there's a pasty bar in it for him. Never happy. Always complaining. There was a final twist, which I loved, though. If, guys, you had picked Matt's song, you would have been listening to this. I said,

One of the greatest songs of all time.

Vicky's cannot be better than this. Well, I can reveal that in picking Vicky Hawksworth, you've gone for this. No! We're both winners. The same song. And of course Matt said they're both winners. But let's make it clear. Vicky Hawksworth was the winner. And this was her winning choice as selected by the listeners. That's that. That is today's show done. Yes, Tom. Anyone want to finish with a game?

I do want to finish with a game. Shall we go round and round and round? You've got to come up with one of those pitbull things on the spot. And if you pause, you're out. Okay, let's go because we're going to be forming them in our heads. Okay, who wants to start? I'll start because I wrote one down in the group. Go on then, quick. Aim for greatness. Don't wait for greatness to find you. Good. Go round to the left, Henry. Answer your phone. Don't let the phone answer you. Good. Get the MLT sorted, otherwise the MLT's going to sort you. I actually do have to get my MLT sorted.

Eat your breakfast, don't let it eat you. Yeah, good one, Tom. Drink from the mug, don't let the drink mug you. Oh! Did you come up with this game because you had a good one? No, no. That's the best one. Amy, go. Stroke your cat, don't let your cat come and stroke you. Yeah, that works. That works. Henry? Sweep the floor, don't let the floor sweep you. OK, turn the lights down, don't go down...

Okay, Libby C, I'm out. Out. Climb the tree, don't let it climb you. Press the buttons, don't let the buttons press you. That was my one from earlier. It was. I said that to you. Right, and then I said it. And you didn't say it on air, though. Oh, okay, fine.

Talk your truth. Don't let the truth find you. Yeah. No, but you didn't... I said it, I said it. You're out. You're out. Henry? Turn the TV on. Don't let the TV turn on. Good. Live a thing. Open your bag. Don't let it open you. Open your bag. Don't let it open you.

Open your bag. Don't let the bag open you. Read the clock. Don't let the clock read you. Yeah, nice. Oh, I thought it was out. I'm not out. No, you're in. Okay, open the door, Dave. Let the door open you. Yeah, okay. Dress yourself. Don't...

Wipe the desk. Don't let the desk wipe you. Can I just remove myself after that one? You can remove yourself, but don't let yourself be removed from here. Dally. Dally.

Any more, Tom? Come on. Read the screen. Don't let the screen read you. Yeah, good. Climb a ladder. Don't let the ladder climb you. I don't know if that works. Yeah. End the podcast. Don't let the podcast end you. There we go. Some of the stuff we have from this podcast could actually end me. But hopefully it's smartly edited to save me from myself. Bye.
