BBC Radio 1. Radio 1's All Day Breakfast. With Greg James. Hello and welcome to Thursday's Radio 1 All Day Breakfast podcast. Loads of good stuff coming up, including Danny Howard doing What's My Age Again. We did a round of Thursday, because it is Thursday. All the latest things. A really fun quiz with Ellis. Plus, the official fart show.
And we started off with a confession. Morning! Thursday! Love Thursday. Welcome to the Radio 1 Breakfast Show. Thank you, Dean. For Earlies, Callum Leslie. Hi. Hello.
You know you have those moments in your day where you just go, "Oh yeah, I need to go to bed." Yes. And your body is telling you something and you've got to listen to your body. Always. For context, I had, from what I'm about to tell you, I had a really lovely afternoon. Look, there was nothing bad that happened. It was all very joyful, very wholesome actually.
Took my niece out for her birthday. Went shopping. She got her nails done. I went and had a pedicure. Lovely. Lovely time. Really nice, nice time with Funko Greg. I got home and I was just sitting on the floor next to the sofa. Barney was on the sofa, the dog. Bella was watching telly. And I turned around to Barney and our eyes met. I was at his level. I was on the floor. He was on the sofa. So our eyes were the same level.
And he just looked deep into my eyes like he was trying to tell me something. And I'm not ashamed to say, Callum, I started crying. Aww. Sorry.
And Bella was like, are you okay? I went, I don't know. She said, I think you should go to bed. Oh no. So I cried looking into my dog's eyes and went, yep, I think it's time for bed. I think that's the sign. You know, your body tells you some things. I mean, it was a lovely moment. There was no particular reason. I just felt like he was trying to tell me something.
I think that's the saying of a man who's had a lot of 5VM alarms. So I think it's a bit that. But as I said, I'm not ashamed to say that I did that. But it's a reminder sometimes, just, you know, just go to bed. Yeah. And so I did. Good.
You feeling okay now? I feel great. Good. As I said, I didn't have a bad day. It wasn't a horrible thing. I just think maybe that was a little bit too much emotion. Welcome to Thursday's Breakfast Show. I promise that I won't cry. Actually, I can't promise that, and I won't promise that. I might cry before the end of the show. Let's begin. One BBC Radio.
But again, let me just reiterate, I'm fine. Actually, you know what? It tends to be, if you have a good cry, you do feel better. I feel very in touch with my emotions. And I feel very in touch with my dog as well. He's a good soul. I think our souls speak to each other. So I think we should kick off the show proper with an unbelievable...
Pitbull plot twist. BBC Radio 1. We need a Pitbull update because something fun has happened. Back in February, was it February? Oh my God. The year is, our lives are zooming past us. So it was February when Pitbull was in the UK doing a few shows and we finally, long story short, we were trying to get hold of him for ages. We eventually got him on The Breakfast Show
We had, we've exchanged phone numbers and we got him on. The whole chat around those shows were the explosion of the bald caps, the explosion of people dressing as Mr. Worldwide to go and watch Mr. Worldwide. He went to go and see him at the O2 or he did a show in Dublin. He's back in June, actually, in the UK. You would look out across the crowd and it was just slap heads. That's all it was.
I want to remind you about the chat that me and my close personal friend Armando...
as I'm allowed to call him now, had about the bald caps. We talked about it. Life's better with the bald cap. And to all the folks with the bald caps that were out representing in the show, that really was, I mean, phenomenal. So stay bold, beautiful, bald and sexy. And then I sort of pitched him an idea because he's a businessman as well as a musician. And I thought he'd appreciate this. I was being quite enterprising, I thought. I was very surprised that on the merchandise stand, you aren't selling them.
I think you need to sell bald caps and aviators. And I think that's going to fund the whole trip and then some. Well, first of all, you're absolutely right. The things that we did in the States, we didn't know that over here was going to be...
Magnified is the word that I'm looking for. So he took it well, and that's where this quote came from. There's a saying that we say amongst the team. They say the biggest room in the world is room for improvement. So therefore, there's room for improvement, and we appreciate it. So his room for improvement was next time he tours, he's going to sell his own bald caps, and that will make him a fortune. I wake up this morning, put my phone down,
unlock my phone, take it off airplane mode. And I look at Instagram and the first thing that pops up because my algorithm knows me better than I know myself was Pitbull. On his story, he's announced that you can now get the look. The official bald cap and Mr. Worldwide kit is now exclusively available. Glasses, bow tie, and of course the bald hat.
That's yours for $50. He's having a laugh. What on earth? And how much is old Muggin seeing of that? Nothing. I tried to buy one, obviously. They've immediately sold out. The website has actually crashed and no one can get them because they've sold out so quickly. And I'm not surprised. My question for you this morning is, as I have his phone number, I've been very respectful and not embarrassing at all. I haven't even messaged. I've not even tried to message him.
Is this moment the moment that I message him? Do I text him this morning to congratulate him on the bald caps thing? Or do I shoot my shot and say, remember where that idea came from? Baldie. Oh, it's really split actually. Really split. And I really take your advice, you know, seriously. Like I would a friend. I mean, if someone's telling me not to do something, I'll listen to it carefully.
Chris in Liverpool says, don't burn that bridge already, Greg. You've only just lifted the ban. We don't need more Pitbull beef. We've just got him on side. That's true. He is very much on side at the minute. Sam in Leicester says, remember, it wouldn't be a mistake. It's a must take. But what does that mean? What do you mean? Do you mean I should message him? Kevin Aldershot says, be careful asking for a cut of the bald caps. Do you think Pitbull's lawyers will be as cool as Pitbull? A very, a very good point. Very good point.
So you think I shouldn't ask him for a 15% cut of the sales of the ball caps, the aviators and the... Okay, look, I'll play it cool.
Greg, what was his advice? Play his advice about money. Ask for money and get advice. Ask for advice, get money twice. So therefore, go to your employer and ask him, hey, is there anything that I could be doing better? Is there things that I could be improving on? So I should ask him for advice? I mean, I've already given it. I've given him advice. I said, get your own bloody bald caps. And then ask for advice, get money twice. So he asked...
I think it's deliberately confusing this advice so that you don't ask him for money. Ask for money and get advice. Ask for advice, get money twice. So therefore, go to your employer and ask him, hey, is there anything that I could be doing better? Is there things that I could be improving on? I'm confused. Beck is in Kent and says, just please don't embarrass us, Greg. Butter him up and then ask him. Play it cool, don't do it. Okay.
Help me. Everyone together. I just want to be breezy. Keep it classy. Just text him. Yeah, but it needs to be breezy. It doesn't need to be asking for money, does it? No, no. I just love this idea. Is that it? Looking great. We talked about it, you've done it, and you've smashed it. Love that for you, mate. Love that for you? I wouldn't say that. All right. No, I wouldn't say love that for you. Love that for you, mate. I said hi, mate. Big respect. No, I wouldn't say big respect.
Hi, mate. Kisses? Oh, would I put a kiss on there? I would normally. XO? XO. XOXO Gossip Girl. Gossip Girl. XOXO Gossip Greg. No, no, no, no, no, no. Focus, focus, focus, focus, focus. Okay, so hi, mate. Great shout on the bald caps.
That's a great shout on the bald caps. Glad you took my advice. How about that? Can't wait to see you when you come back. Why, why, why, why, why? Maybe just say like... Glad you loved the idea. Glad you loved the idea. Glad you loved... The idea we talked about. The idea or my idea? The idea. The idea we talked about. The idea we talked about. Glad you loved the idea we talked about.
The biggest room in the world is room for improvement. The biggest, great, yeah, yeah, yeah, in the world is... And you filled that room with bald caps. The biggest room in the world is room for improvement. Yeah, great, remember. And you filled that room with bald caps. And you filled that room with bald caps. Your pal, Greg. With bald caps, yeah, okay.
Lots of love, Greg. Lots of love, Greg. Can't wait to see you in June. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. To see you. Dale. Okay, that's gone. Hi, mate. Great shout on the ball caps. Glad you love the idea we talked about. The biggest room in the world is room for improvement, remember? And you filled that room with ball caps. Lots of love, Greg. Can't wait to see you in June. Dale. I feel quite... It feels like I'm trying to get off with him.
So that first text you send someone, it's gone. Like when you workshop. Yeah, we workshopped it. Can I just point one thing out? What's up? It's 10 to 3 in the morning in Miami. Yeah, but he'll be up. Now it really seems like you're trying to get with him. No, it's fine. No, because he's always up. He's partying. Don't stop the party, famously. Radio 1, Radio 1, all day breakfast. Were you hurrying through that news?
Absolutely on time results. Leanne in Swansea says, hurry up, Callum. No one in the world listening to Radio 1 is turning off right now. Everyone's late for school and work. We need to hear this message. Okay. By the way, we need to hear your gasp again. We've got your gasp from a second ago. Ready? That's real. That's real emotion.
I was just so shocked. I didn't think it was going to happen. Okay, just to get everyone up to date with the story. Overnight, I spotted that Pitbull had started selling bald caps on his website. Aviators and bow ties. That's what I talked to him about when he was on the show.
Excellent message from everyone. That was sent at 7.49 this morning.
At 7:54, he's replied. He's up. Someone texted in saying he's Mr. Worldwide. That's his own time zone. All in capitals. Look. Oh, it is. It's all in capitals. I'll show you on the screen. All in capitals. Yes, sir. Thank you. I appreciate the support and advice. See you in June. Stay blessed, my friend. Dale. Que tu puede. Susanna, what does Que tu puede mean?
I don't really, just like yeah, hell yeah you can. Hell yeah, let's go. Hell yeah. K2 play day, that's it. That's gone well. That's actual Pitbull. That's gone well, hasn't it? That's gone really well. So now, I think now I leave it. Yeah, do you want to stay calm? Well, I'm not going to stay calm because... I can't stay calm, I'm not going to stay calm. I'll stay calm on text, but in real life... On text? In real life, I'm buzzing. Just half a note of Pitbull.
I mean, I'd love to. No punctuation in that message. He's too busy for full stops. Next up on The Breakfast Show podcast. Well, it's all about balanced life, isn't it? So let's do a fart-based feature. Welcome to the official chart. It's Craig Saunders with you. We're running this thing tonight.
Are we okay up in here? Last week, we were talking about some of the biggest farters on the planet. And we feature them only on this show because this is the only fart that counts. It's the only fart the artists care about. And when I say artists, I mean fartists. Let's speak to some of the biggest fartists in the world. Are we going to get some non-movers?
Hello. Hello.
Yeah, good, thanks. Going really well. Good. Let me just break out of Crack Saunders' character for a while. So, yeah, last week, this all started, a couple of weeks ago, this started with you. There was a question on yesterday's quiz, which was about farts and how many is sort of, is healthy. Anything over 25 was deemed unhealthy or not unhealthy, but excessive by an Australian health sort of survey.
So we wanted to put that to the test. We thought that was a little bit low. So last week, what did you get on the chart, on the fart chart? I believe it was 18. In one 24-hour period? In a 24-hour period, correct. Right, OK.
We need to start the rundown because we've got Jake on line two. Hi, Jake. Hi, Greg. You all right? Yeah, pretty good. Thank you. Welcome back to the official fart. How's it feeling? Feeling all good. Great. Last week, you were at 41, weren't you? Yes, I'm a lot, yeah. Okay. And Will. Good morning to you, Will.
Good morning. Welcome back to the official fart. Okay, let's get back into Crack Saunders territory and start the official fart countdown. Last week's number one was Will. 42 farts in a 24-hour period. Has Rachel done enough this week? Or will Jake just squeeze out a couple more to get the top spot? Top Plop, let's go. Three. Jake, how many? 21 yesterday. Three.
21 yesterday. Okay. Okay. Let's go for another two. Rachel. 49. It's going to be close. Do we have a new number one or will Will do it again? Let's find out with Jake. How many? It's been Will. Oh, I meant Will. Yeah. 58 this week. 58? Incredible performance.
I've got a lot of research out of Hartmoor. Oh, really? Yeah. So it's two weeks at the top for Will. 58? What have you been eating, man? Onion rings and Red Bull. That'll do it. That's really grim, isn't it? Well, look, you...
Sometimes you have to suffer for your farts, don't you? That's what they say in the business. And thank you. Yeah, thanks so much for being back on. Rachel, wow, you've got a lot of ground to make up here. I know. I can't believe it, to be honest. Are you actually gutted? Yeah, I am a bit.
Next time. Next Thursday? I don't know if we can do this again. I actually think we're done. No, me neither. I think, in general, it should have been a one-week thing anyway. Maybe it should have been a no-week thing, actually, if we're being honest with ourselves. But I do think, Will, you are the champion and you've simultaneously killed it by saying Onion Rings and Red Bull. I think that was the moment that we all went, yeah, I think we're done with this. But you do remain the undefeated...
chart farter of the world. So well done. Thank you very much. I hope you feel proud of what you've done. Jake, Will, Rachel, thanks so much. And Rachel, you need to get back onto your amazing adventure. You're off around Europe, so we need to let you go. Yeah, OK. OK. But I'll continue to count. Thank you. And that's all I ask, guys. Just think of me. BBC Radio 1.
Radio 1. And next, an appearance from Danny Howard. Radio 1's all-day breakfast. Danny Howard, good morning. Good morning, Greg. This exciting? It's very exciting. It's always nice to see you. Nice to see you too. And I'm pleased that you're bringing back an old classic.
A recent modern classic. Yeah. I mean, it was only five, six, seven years ago. I guess it is a long time. The Radio 1 Rave Lounge. Have it. Let's have it. I'm so excited about this. And do you know what? When we first did it, it felt really naughty because the live lounge is...
What's best to describe it? It's the pinnacle, maybe, or it's an important, significant moment in an artist's career. We've had some pretty big artists in that live lounge. It's like a museum. Yes. Isn't it? Good way of describing it. It's like a pop museum. Some of the biggest pop stars...
in the world. It's an institution. I think it's fair to say. So when the Radio 1 bosses allowed us to turn it into a rave lounge, it went well. It did go well. We did it for two years and then it happened. And we haven't done it since. But now we are bringing it back. But...
But I don't think they trust us as much this time because we're not having actual people in it this time. It's going to be in the portal. You might have seen this on Jack's show, actually. He did it with Confidence Man. That was brilliant. It's good, the portal. It is good. So the whole Radio 1 Dance family are going to be DJing, myself, Pete, Sarah, Jaguar, Jerry's going to be there, all doing sets. And you can be involved. You can be there virtually in the portal, having a rave in the rave lounge with us.
This Friday from 6pm. Perfect thing to put on in the background if you've got a party. A bit like, you know how sometimes you just... People just will put on a boiler room set. Yeah. And just have it on in the house. That's exactly what we're doing. So that's the sort of thing you're going for, isn't it, with the rave lounge? Exactly that. Does it feel like you're sort of... When it's the rave lounge, is it a little bit like mum and dad have gone away for the weekend and you're inviting friends over and they're a bit like...
Just don't touch dad's drinks. It's exactly that. The Raid 1 bosses, they're not working on a Friday night, are they? Let's turn the live lounge upside down and have a rave. Please, please just make sure everyone takes their shoes off. And please, please don't get drinks on the carpet. And please don't put beer bottles on the piano. And our room is out of bounds. Right. Always a favourite. If I find anyone's been in our bedroom...
That sort of thing. Well, that's going to be great. So the Radio 1 Dance lot are going to be on. So Friday night should be where you're listening to Radio 1 anyway, because if you love dance music, that's the place to be. You know, you know. Danny Howard's going to lead things off every Friday from 6pm. And then Sarah Story, Pete Tong, Jaguar's on. Who else is on? Martha, Jeremiah Asiyama, me, Sarah P. Yeah, the whole Dad's family. Great. It's going to be good. All doing sets, especially for you.
In the Rave Lounge. So that's going to be this Friday. Make sure you are listening and also portaling. Portaling. Have you put yourself in the portal? Yeah, I've had a look. I've had a look. Have you? I've had a look in the portal of you. Yeah, I've had a look. It's looking good. Does the AI Danny Howard dance? Is he a better dancer? He is much better. Really? Oh, wait till you see on Friday. So you're a better dancer in the computer world. Got some moves, let me tell you. Have you programmed some cool moves? Yeah. Yeah.
Not like that though. I'm going to get you, I'm going to hack in and change your avatar so that you start twerking. No! No!
Wait, you can't do that. Surely you can. I can't twerk. Surely there's a nerd that can help me with that. No one wants to see me twerk. Okay, that is happening on Friday. The Radio 1 Rave Lounge is back and you can get involved by listening and by portaling on there. Let's play a song. And Ellis is standing by. Hi, Ellis. Hi. Ellis is going to be on What's My Age again. I don't think you've done this game for a long time. A long time. I can't remember. So long ago. So Ellis has got an age. Can you confirm that you're alive and you've got an age? Yes.
I am alive and I do have an age. Excellent. Good start. That's a relief. You've confirmed that you are alive and you have an age. We've got loads of questions and we're going to guess what that age is. It's going to be ferocious. Me versus Danny Howard. Danny, would you like to go first with a question? Yes. I'm so rubbish at games. I'm going to go...
Did you ever record your favourite songs from Radio 1 onto a cassette or a dodgy MP3 player? I did not, no. No, I think she's young. She's way too young for that. I did that and it didn't go well.
Well, it has gone well. Well, no, actually. Look what you're doing now. No, but I recorded Pete Tong's show and then my first DJ gig played a tune and forgot that he came on halfway through the tune. That crowd was like, oh my God, Pete Tong's here. I know. We came to see Danny Howard. We got Pete Tong. It was before I was on Radio 1. It was embarrassing. So she didn't, right? You didn't do that, Ellis, so you're going a bit younger. What are you going for, Craig? I did not, no. My question to you is, what's your perfect Brighton day? What do you do? Perfect Brighton day. You've got a day off in Brighton. What are you doing? Um...
Honestly, sit on the beach. Yeah. Sit on the beach, have a swim, have a tinny in the sun, have a little picnic. Oh, yeah. Go to a gig. What gig? What gig would you love to go and see in Brighton tonight? Who would you love to be on in Brighton tonight? Aside from... What, just like out of anybody ever that I could possibly... Yeah, who would you love to go and see? Um...
I know you want to say something in the New Music Portal, but you don't have to say the New Music Portal. Yeah, I actually really wanted to see Danny Howard. I've sort of seen everybody that I'd like to see. I'd like to see Suzie and the Banshees, or I'd like to see the Dead Kennedys, but they're not playing anytime soon. Wow, where's that come from? That's crazy shouts, but amazing shouts. Okay. I don't know who they are. Danny, next question. What's something from your childhood that you wish would come back?
Going to your mate's house and sitting on their desktop computer and just sitting on YouTube and watching music videos. That's good. You know you could just do that. You are able to do that. Who has a desktop computer? Like a proper PC anymore? One that you have to really fire up. iMum. Yeah. One of those ones with a huge fan on the back of it. It just goes...
Like those ones that sound like they're about to take off because they're just full of dust. What music video would set the time for us there, the era? What do you immediately think of when you think of watching? Again, I'm not very helpful because I love all sorts. So I'd watch, like, To Remember A Quiet, obviously, Virtual Insanity, fantastic. But also love, like, something that's just implanted in my brain forever is...
Justin Bieber and Nicki Minaj Beauty and the Beat that video is like locked into my mind okay I mean Jamiroquai and Beauty and the Beat probably about 15 to 20 years between those two songs yeah exactly Ellis I have no I know I have no idea who are
What do you think is Jamiroquai? It's such an iconic video. Anyone, like my little sister would go back and watch that. I'm not here to make it easy for you. No, I know. We know that. What am I sure? Yeah. Okay, that's a really good one. A good question from Danny. Let's go quick fire. Go, question. Danny, let's get this done. What was your first email address? What did it end with? At AOL.com. No way. AOL. Oh. Okay. Do you remember when Channel 5 started? No.
No. Good, that's okay. Next one. Was Milkshake on Channel 5? Milkshake was on Channel 5, yes. Oh, she's sort of got it then. But no, but when it started, it's a very specific moment in history. Okay, go on. Did your school pack lunch ever include a Sunny D cheese string or a Froob?
Yes. I can hear the seagulls. That is amazing. Lovely. Do you remember life without the National Lottery? No. Okay, good. Next question. Did you ever have a flip phone? No, but I wasn't allowed a phone. Okay, I'm going to have one more question. Did you ever like watching the Crystal Maze?
Yes, loved it. Who hosted it? Oh, good question. Richie O'Brien. Yeah, okay. I don't know who you are. You're mad. This is all over the place. You're simultaneously 45 and 20. Yeah, exactly. Were you raised on Dick and Dom in the Bungalow or Bluey? Dick and Dom. Dick and Dom. All right, I've got it. I'm going to do a guess. I've got a good guess.
Danny, go. Write it down. Write it down, write it down. Lots of difficult, conflicting answers there from Ellis. I think born in... Okay, so what are we saying? All right. Okay, I think I've got... I've got it. I think I've got a good answer here. I've got a really good answer. You got one? I think so. What are you saying? I think born in 2000. Oof.
I don't know about that. Go on. No, well, go on. Go on. So, yeah, 25. I think you're 28. Ellis, what is your age again? I'm 23. I'm 2001. Oh! Danny wins. Oh, my God. Danny got it. Great. Great work. I was one year out. Great work. Born. 25 instead of 23. So you're nearly 24. Those are really good questions. Yeah, really good, Danny. That was great work.
Great work. 28? I went way too old, yes. Yeah, that's... I was trying to not feel insulted, but it's nothing personal. But at the same time, it felt quite personal. No, it's nothing personal. It's just all your answers were a real mess. And therefore, you've lost a listener. But that's fine. It's really... You're doing life well because you like all sorts of things. And that's why this game is very, very difficult. Well, Ellis, thank you for being on.
And have a great rest of your day today. Enjoy the sunshine in Brighton and we'll catch up with you soon. Thank you so much. Enjoy the rest of your day, guys. Thanks, Ellis. See you in the portal. See you in the portal. There's no way of making portal sound cool, is there? Even though it is cool. It is cool. The dance portal. Hello, we're going...
I was wondering what you're doing on Friday night because I've got tickets to the dance portal. Okay, no, it's not cool, is it? But it will be. So, Danny, thanks for coming in. It's a pleasure and a pleasure to play that game again. We brought it back. Immaculate round from you as well. Thank you. Really well played. And you're back on the radio on Friday night, six o'clock for the Radio 1 Rave Lounge. Yep, the Rave Lounge is back.
virtually. You can get involved. You can all be there. We'll tell you. If you listen, we'll tell you how to get involved in the portal and you can, of course, listen to the sets on Radio 1. Lovely, Danny. Good man. Great man. One of our best men, actually, Danny Howard. Next up, it's time for Thursday. Charlie Hedges. Hey! Hello. It's Thursday. I've actually got one to kick it off with today. Go on. So Pitbull overnight released...
official bald cap bow tie aviator combination packs on his website. Are you actually serious? $50. No! Sold out immediately. No! Websites crash, you can't get anywhere near them. But I thought, well it was actually a thought from, so producer Amy, I've been chatting about this for a while.
I haven't messaged him yet. I haven't abused the phone number privilege. Have you got his actual mobile number? Actual phone number. Oh, my God, I'm so jealous. You know when we were setting up that interview? Yeah. And he had to cancel the interview the night before and he wanted to call me personally and he was like, so you've got my number now, so we're connected. Oh, my God, don't. And with great power comes great responsibility. I don't want to ruin that moment, that friendship, by, you know, just...
Ask him how he's day was. Or just being drunk and being like, can you say that to my friend? I don't believe it, I've got your number. He doesn't believe it, honestly, honestly, honestly, honestly. No, no, speak to my mate Johnny. No, no, no, because he like loves you. Fuck.
I haven't done that. But anyway, so producer Amy today said, I think it's time. Oh my God. I think it's time to message him. So I messaged him and said, hi, mate. This was a working. This was like a group. You know, like when you're trying to text someone back that you fancy. Yeah. You get all your mates involved. And you go, how do I not sound weird? Pre-freed it. Yeah. And it was, we all workshopped it. Hi, mate. Great shout on the bald caps.
Glad you love the idea we talked about because we suggested it when he was on the show. The biggest room in the world is room for improvement, remember? And you filled that room with bald caps. Lots of love, Greg. Can't wait to see you in June. Dale. Kiss. He then replied within 10 minutes. Oh, my. Within 10 minutes. What is going on? In capital letters. No punctuation. Yes, sir. Thank you. I appreciate the support and advice. See you in June. Stay blessed, my friend. Dale. Que tu puede. Oh, my God.
Oh no, that's just stupid. Have you actually got his number saved in your phone or do you not? As in, have you got him under Pitbull? It's saved as Mr305, brackets, Pitbull. Hey, here we go. You're kicking off. That's the first way. The first way of the day. So, Thirds Way is happening. Charlie Hedges, we love having you here. You are synonymous with Thirds Way. Love it. Chosen a big song today. Okay.
It's finally sunny! Woo-hoo-hoo!
Hi, Berg. I'm off to see G-Mate 6 tonight for their penultimate gig. Hey! Windy. Possessed at the end of that. Next one. Off to play golf in my new golf clubs. Hey! Next one. I'm super excited for the weekend because the sun is out. That's all we need, really.

On Saturday, I finally get the keys to my new home. Whey! Get the fish and chips in on the floor. I've just been promoted at work. Whey! Whey! Just been promoted. Turn it down.
It's 18 degrees in my part of the country today. It is warm today. It is.
Day off tomorrow, long weekend. Start of the cricket season. Off to watch Somerset v Worcester. I also feel that. I also deeply feel the start of the cricket season makes me so, so happy. Let's wait for John. Take it home, John. Best bit.
Connor! I am extremely excited about the portal. The portal! The dance portal! The Radio 1 rave lounge!
Oh, we're all excited about the portal. Of course we are. Oh, yeah. Love a portal. Can't stop thinking about it. My girlfriend's just done eight pull-ups on the pull-up bar. Wahey! Wahey! Get in there. That's a lot. Get in there. I'm on maternity leave and it's my mum's birthday, so we're going out for a midweek lunch. Wahey! Wahey! I love midweek lunch. Going out for a midweek lunch.
DJ Snake, Lil Jon, Turn Down For What and all your voice notes. So many more. Here we go. But Kai Osaka is back. I'm getting my tattoo finished today. I'm running my first ever marathon in Brighton on Sunday. All right, Jamie Lang.
Another. Last day of work today for three weeks because my girlfriend's having a baby on Sunday. Oh. Hey! Hey! Have you got one, Charlie? You got a good one? I put him in a baby. Sorry, you lost me then. Have I got what? Just a way. Have you got a good way? Have you got a good thing that you're excited about? I went to see Asha last night.
That was filth. Oh. Whey! Whey! A whey. Good whey? I was like that, though, a couple of times, like fingers in the eyes, because I didn't really want to look too much. Oh, really? Really saucy? Very saucy. If you're going, you're going to have a whale of a time. I mean, the guy's got a song called Climax. The clue's in the title. True. But this is... It was... Was it a lot? It was a lot. Whey! One more day at work, and then I'm off to St Lucia on the weekend. Oh, wow. Whey! Whey!
Nice one, Jake. Have a great time in St Lucia. Do we need to get the spray bottle out for everyone that went to see Usher last night? Yes. Down. Down, girl. Down. One word. Cherries. Cherries? That's what we need to know. If you're going to see him, live your life. That's it. Look, I need to spray you again. This is... Charlotte. Come on, because I need it. It's so bad. Come on. Can we just... Can we not...
Please. Was he there? Was he naked? I wished. No, he wasn't. Of course he wasn't. What do you mean he's there with cherries? What do you mean? Is he giving out fruit? I don't want to spoil it for everyone going, but I'm just saying, ladies especially, just if you're at that front, if you're at the front... I'm sorry. Unbelievable. Unbelievable.
Can we just put it... I'm going to put you in the showers. As long as there's a towel there, and I ain't got to use Matt Evanson's dirty one that you found. Anyway, sorry about that. There's a lot going on, Charlie. I think you need to get a bit of fresh air before your show starts. I might actually. And a coffee. Oh, no, bad idea. Thank you for your Thursdays. Charlie, have a great show today. Bye, love you all. And now we quiz. Here comes Ellis.
Radio One's All Day Breakfast. With Greg James. It is the Radio One Breakfast Show, and shall we quiz? Although, I've got a problem with the quiz. For the first time in seven years, the font has changed on my script, and the questions are written in a different... Henry, what's that font? I think it was Aptos. Aptos. By the way, I don't hate it. No, it's nice. It surprised me, but I'm...
If any listeners would like to request a font for the next Yesterday's Quiz, which will be tomorrow, then please let us know your favourite font. And if any clowns ask for wingdings... Ellis, good morning! Good morning, Greg. Welcome to the Radio 1 Breakfast Show. You're not a kitchen fitter like your brothers, are you?
Couldn't do it. That feels like they should have supported you in this endeavour a bit more. Oh, you're a scaffolder.
The noisiest people in the whole world, but very, very skilled and legends, and we'd be lost without you. But are you unbelievably loud as well? Do you shout jokes from the top of the scaffold to the bottom of the scaffold? Yeah, I'm probably the loudest in the family as well. You can hear me before you can see me. Right, so really what's happened there is they've got you out of the kitchen and put you in the outdoors.
Yeah. That's what's happened there. Yeah, I get it. Ellis, you're Cole's twin as well.
Yeah, I'm the youngest by 10 minutes. Nice. And we've had a team of brilliant brothers this week, Jordan Colton, Ellis, plus your cousin, Tala, as well, who was great on Tuesday. Ellis, you could get in the final tomorrow. This is an opportunity for you here. So you've got a load of questions about stuff that happened yesterday, and all you need is 14 or more to get into that final. Let's get on with it. It's yesterday's quiz, the final of the group stages. FILE!
Now, I should have some dingers. Let me just check those. One second. There we go. Yes, we have some dingers. And your time will start when you give me your first answer. Here we go with question number one with a new font. Scientists discovered how the human brain can predict the future. Can you predict what score you're going to get on this quiz? 13. 13, I see. Haim announced their new single, but can you name me any of the sisters in the band?
Oh, not a... Name a name. Name a girl's name. You might get it. Sabrina. Liverpool played Everton in the Premier League, but who won? Liverpool. They did. Two sheep in South Africa have joined a herd of rhino. Give me your best impression of a sheep who thinks it's a rhino. OK, I'll give you two for that. What day was it yesterday? Wednesday. It was. Dua Lipa covered the song Royals by which New Zealand singer?
Oh, not a clue. It's Lorde. Yesterday was which famous Pedro's birthday? He's also known as the internet's daddy. No, not a clue. I'd say just randomly, no. It's Pedro Pascal. A baby giraffe took its first steps at West Midlands Safari Park, but who's taller, me or that giraffe? The giraffe. No, it's me. The giraffe's only six foot currently because it's a baby. Who was on the quiz yesterday? What?
Sorry, say that again. Who was on the quiz yesterday? Cole. It was. Astronomers observed a supermassive black hole burp for the first time. But what caused the burp? Was it astrophysical jets or leftover prawn boona? Astrophysical jets. Yes, correct. Yesterday was National Reconciliation Day. Can you say sorry to me, please? Sorry.
Sorry. Thank you. Apology accepted. And Pitbull has started selling bald caps on his website. But what is Pitbull's famous phrase? Does he say, darling or darling? I'm going to go darling. Unfortunately, it's darling. Sorry, Ellis. But good ones. Difficult questions today, I thought, and...
Also, you didn't get... Oh, you also got the first one incorrect because you said 13. Yeah, I'm breaking up a little bit. I'm breaking up here and there, so I can only just hear you. Are you up a scaffold?
No, no, I'm just parked in a lay-by on my way to a job. Well, I'm going to give you an extra point for parking up in a lay-by because that sounds bleak. So thank you for that. But with that, you've only got seven points today. Ah, what? Yeah. But we had a nice time, though. That's important. And we had a good chat. And I imagine your brothers and your cousin will be...
slagging you off today on various WhatsApps? Nah, they're alright. We've been on the family group chat all week. Has it been good? Has everyone enjoyed it so far? Yeah, they have, yeah. That's good. Ellis, it's been nice to have you on. Thanks for pulling over. Can I do a quick shout-out, Greg? Of course you can. Just to my mum and my partner Danny for helping me this last month. It's been a hard month. To Grandad Dave, whose birthday it is on Saturday, and my mate Tom.
Grandad Dave. I'm going to make Grandad Dave star listener today. I'm going to give him a fanfare. How about that? All right. Thank you very much, Greg.
Ellis, have a good day and thanks for being on The Breakfast Show. And now, all the latest things. Radio 1's All Day Breakfast. Loads of good stuff to get through this morning and let's drop in on Ray, who's doing a little Get Ready With Me video on TikTok. Not me, she's not getting ready with me. She's getting ready by herself and filming it. For me. No, not specifically for me. I'm married. For everyone. Cheers.
She did talk about her underwear to kick things off, though. I love granny pants. I'm not the thong girl. I really have a lot of respect for those of you who are, but I just can't do it. I'm just like a constant wedgie. Oh, I agree. Couldn't agree more. She's also got some new music. So I'm back in the studio. My first five sessions, I couldn't write anything. I was overthinking everything. I definitely cried. That's great news that she's back in the studio. Hopefully we'll get some new music from Ray very soon. And next up...
We have a hunk emergency breaking news. Paul Meskel, recently been cast as Paul McCartney in an upcoming Beatles biopic or biopic. He's also appearing in a play at the minute, A Streetcar Named Desire, and the fans wait for him after every performance just to get a little photo and say hello to him.
They're waiting at the stage door. And he was approached by this fan who was wielding some flowers. Nice way to get his attention. I got you flowers. He's got me flowers. Thank you. That's nice. It's warmed him up. Really nice. That fan's got Paul exactly where he wants him and then hits him with quite a difficult question. I gotta ask though. Thank you, thank you, thank you. What's your favourite Paul McCartney song? I don't know.
Love the assembled crowd, like making that into a sort of like, like he's just been cussed at school and everyone's like, ooh, cuss.
But it's because that's a big question to ask a guy who's just been performing for two and a half hours on stage. But because Paul Mescal is always prepared and also probably a genuine Beatles mega fan, he had the answer ready to go. At the moment, I love Helter Skelter. Oh, OK, OK. Yeah, that answer is a real up yours to that fan. Yeah, it's Helter Skelter. Shove that.
And finally, we go to Dua Lipa. Currently on tour in Australia and New Zealand doing the Radical Optimism Tour. I've still got the hunk music on, sorry. Let's change that. I wouldn't say Dua Lipa. Dua Lipa, she's not a classic hunk. Anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway, focus. She was in Auckland in New Zealand, which is the home of Lorde. And Lorde's song Royals got the Dua Lipa treatment on stage. Let me be, let me be.
Great song, nicely covered. But where is Lorde? Surely there's new music on the way at some point from her. But with that, as Sadie in rugby has said, you should finish all the latest things with, you're up to date with all the latest things, XOXO, Gossip Greg. Thanks, Sadie. And that is the end of today's Radio 1 All Day Breakfast podcast. Thanks for listening. I'll be back with you tomorrow with a big old Friday load of fun.
And yeah, just join me then. See ya.
