BBC Radio 1 Radio 1's All Day Breakfast with Greg James Hello and welcome to Wednesday's Radio 1 All Day Breakfast podcast. Fun one today! We did some train announcements for Mersey Rail and the listeners really helped out. We did What's My Age Again. We got you up to date with all the latest things. We talked about a very silly bit of Lost in Translation.

Plus, we did a quiz and we talked more about people abusing my email address. So let's crack on with the start of today's breakfast show. One's all day breakfast.

Hey, Alison, good morning. Good morning, you all right? Yes, yes, yes, yes. Exciting news about the Universal theme park thing. I know, right? Yeah, some big plans. They've got big plans. We were excited until you told us the date of it. Yeah, it's quite a way off. It's only ages. It's going to take quite a while to build, I think. It's a big old site that they've got in mind. 2031. I can't even see to the end of April. The end of... 2031. That feels...

It feels like something from a film. I was going to say it's a date for your diary. It's a year for your diary, isn't it? A year. Shall we all put it in now? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right, let's try and scroll forward a few years. Let's try and put it in. So when do you reckon? Did they give us a month? No, no, just generic 2031 for now, I think. Pretty vague, isn't it? Pretty vague. All right, 1st of January. I'm putting it in. Universal Theme Park. Universal Theme Park.

Opens soon. No, opens this year. Nice. All right, there you go. Anyway, thank you. It's the pick-me-up we all needed. Absolutely, yeah. Thanks, Pete. And welcome to this morning's breakfast show. We all spend too much time together, by the way, in this team because I was five minutes late to the meeting, the breakfast show meeting. I'd been spotted on the way in on my bike and they'd pieced together and were sitting waiting for me

And all of them went, are you late to the meeting because of the veggie volcano pizza you had last night? And I crumpled and went, oh my God, you know me better than I know myself. Correct. Was it worth it? Every single time. What have we got here? Greg, how about this? Picture the scene. It's Jan Slam 2031. You're giving tickets away to the grand opening of the Universal Theme Park. Oh God.

Just feels too far off. I mean, thank you for thinking that I'll still be here in 2031. Just me sitting here going, just text the word park. Please let me sleep. Please give someone else this show. I've given away the FA Cup prize for the last 15 years. John Slam, 2031. I'll see you there.

Yeah, big up Bedford. Get in Universal Studios, whatever it's called. Next up, let's talk about Mersey Rail. We received an amazing email the other day from Mersey Rail. OK, Mersey Rail have emailed me and they've said, Hi, Greg, would you be interested in recording four short train announcements that will play across Mersey Rail in the week running up to Big Weekend? Interested! Of course I'm interested!

Of course, it would be the biggest honour ever to be the voice of a train for a bit. Mersey Rail, it will be a dream come true. I know that I do radio every day and this goes to loads of people, but there's something about doing the announcements on transport, which is just that next level. So, yes, thank you. That's a lovely offer. I've been doing some thinking. And also they sent through, they sent through a few questions.

of what they want. They've given me quite a tight script, which I think needs to be, it just needs to be loosened up just a little bit, just a bit, because it's, you know, it's the Radio 1 listeners. You're really fun. I think there's an opportunity here because what they've said is, right, so pretend we're on the train. This is what they've given me so far. One second. Let me try and get a good train voice. Hello? One, two. One, two. Does that sound good? One, two, three. One, two. One, two. Yep.

Hello, it's Greg James from BBC Radio 1. I hope you're as excited as I am for Radio 1's big weekend in Liverpool. Welcome to Mersey Rail. St Michael's Station is a short walk away from all the action. If you need any help while travelling, please speak to a friendly member of staff. But I think we need to... Let's get rid of that. I think we need to just jazz it up a little bit. It could be more fun, couldn't it? There's an opportunity here for some Radio 1 fun.

Let's go back on the train. We need a sort of... The door of the toilet is currently unlocked. Someone might walk in on you doing a poo. Or, you know, stop imagining a life with the hot person opposite you. They won't be interested. Liverpool, Rathapool, Loverpool. That sort of thing.

The door is opening. Stop pooing now. I think what I'm saying is there are opportunities on there. It's a bit like in the American office where Michael Scott finds wet cement and panics and goes, what do we do with it? We've got an opportunity here. What do we do? We've got a thing here. Please help. I need you now. I've been asked to record some announcements for Mersey Rail around Big Weekend.

on the train that goes to St Michael's Station, which is, as we remember, guys, just a short walk away from all the action. If you need any help while travelling, please speak to a friendly member of staff. And thank you for your ideas. Loads of great ones. Craig in Shrewsbury says... Oh, let me get my... Let's get back inside the train, guys. We're back inside. Craig in Shrewsbury says... The toilets are open for those who would like a BBC Radio 1 or a Radio 2.

Gareth in Newcastle says, can you give me a bing bong, please, Greg? Yes, I'll give you a bing bong. You're ever so demanding, aren't you? Where's the bing bong? Stop having loud conversations about your corporate job. Nobody's impressed, laptop boy. Andy thinks we should do an OK, let's go every time it leaves the station. Could get boring. Or would it ever get boring? OK, let me try it. So let's do... This is what they want from me.

Hi, it's Greg James from BBC Radio 1. Welcome aboard this Mersey Rail service to Radio 1's big weekend. And other places, of course. Remember to get off at St Michael's Station. I hope you're as excited as I am. OK, let's go.

Let's get some voice notes. What have we got here? Let the doors open. Don't let the doors open you. Oh, yeah, pitbull. Pitbull's a good idea, isn't it, to put in? You have arrived at Liverpool Station. Please let the people off the train before boarding. You impatient bing-bing.

Oh, yeah, use the bing bongs as a beep. Yeah, very good. Dan? Please mind the army of a thousand goats as you leave the platform to head towards Big Weekend. We could try and get listener Jesse and his thousand goats to turn up. I'd like that. Good afternoon, all passengers. This is Greg James here. Are you well? I thought you were. Thank you very much. See you. Stay up. Long boy. Yeah, we do have to do... I think we do have to do that. We have to do...

And are you well, I thought. Are you well? I thought you were. Hmm. How about this? This carriage is a fart-free zone. As such, we kindly request that you refrain from tooting whilst in this carriage. That person's got a really, really good voice. I like that one. The noise your child is making is irritating all of the other passengers. Please shut them up. OK, I think what we need to do is we need to have a pitbull quote at the end of each one.

In fact, should we just record one of them now for, we'll do one now, live, for Mersey Rail. It'd be great if you're actually on Mersey Rail now. This is live announcements for you. Okay.

OK, let's go.

Or maybe, do we call Pitbull and ask him to get involved? Just as an idea. A few of you have said do a Jack Saunders style one. Tell me what this stop means to you and how this stop makes you feel. Welcome to Radio 1's Big Weekend. Mark in Halifax says maybe you should do a Daniel Craig. Ladies and gentlemen, the weekend. Yeah, we've thought about this. Hang on. Ladies and gentlemen, Big Weekend. Please exit here at St Michael's.

And now let's do What's My Age Again. What's my age again? Wednesday morning, it's the Radio 1 Breakfast Show. This is Greg James. And last week we had a really good round of What's My Age Again. Danny Howard was on. And it's the game where we get to ask loads of silly questions to a caller. Then we work out their age. It's What's My Age Again. It's not that deep.

Danny was trying to guess the age of a listener called Ellis, and she was a real puzzle, actually. We were finding it very, very difficult. But then, listener Lisa sent in this message, and she theorized how old she thought Ellis was. Ellis has cool parents, she said. They've got a record player for sure. I would say 23 years old. I'd say mum was a clubber and dad was a chilled out dude.

No.

Yeah, absolutely, definitely. It was a great theory and I looked at all the messages and really you were the only person that got it spot on because everyone was thrown off scent by a few other things that she'd said and they were like, oh, she's way older than 23, but you nailed it.

I can see why people were thrown off the scent because of the sort of the 80s references of the bands. But that's why I said a record player, because she's been brought up on music that has been played on a record player. So maybe a lucky guess, but also probably a bit of theory to it as well. No, there was a lot of theory to it and you nailed it. So what we're going to do today is you and I are going to go head to head and we're going to try and guess the age of a new listener called Alex. Hi, Alex. Hi.

Welcome. We're going to ask you some questions and then we're going to try and work out your age. Okay, Alex, can you give me your favourite thing to do when you're not at work? What's your favourite hobby, I guess? I know it's a horrible question, but what do you like to do in your spare time? Well, I like to sew a lot.

And then any form of, like, gigs or sort of festivals, stuff like that, I'd say I pay a lot of attention to new music. OK, music, gigs, but also sewing. Lisa, tricky little curveball in there. Yeah, no, I like that one. I like sewing. Yeah, I think if you've been raised with crafty parents,

No idea of your age, though, to be honest. It's early days. Give us a question, Lisa. What format did you buy your first album on? A CD.

Can I piggyback the question and ask what was the CD? What was the album? Oh, I believe it was Yumi at Six. I remember my sister bought it for me at the time. Oh, it's a good question. It's between that or Katy Perry, actually. Okay, fine. I've got a good, that's a good era. That's a good era for me. Yeah, okay, got that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, Lisa, next question.

What is the first family car that you had when you were a kid and your parents were driving you around? What was that car? Can you remember? Brilliant question. Oh my God, it was a proper old school SEAT. I'd want to say it looked like a bus. I had a SEAT bus as well. Brilliant, that's a good one actually because that gives me a really good idea. The SEAT bus. It was huge, literally huge.

I bet it's a funny name. It's going to have a horrible name. I know it already. Would it have been a say at Alhambra? It may have been, yes. Okay. Lisa, next question. If you were ordering a drink at the bar, what would your go-to drink be? I'd say in the winter a Guinness and in the summer maybe an Aperol Spritz. Okay. That's good.

OK, we're in the pub still. Favourite pub snack? Ooh, as in like hot food or cold? Packaged.

Packaged goods. I'd say salt and vinegar crisps. Okay. Would you ever go for a pork scratch in? No. Would you ever go for a bacon or a scampi fry? I would not, no. What about cheddars? I'm a picky one. No cheddars? Maybe a cheddar. I'd be impartial to a cheddar. Okay. That's good to know. That's good. One last question from Lisa, and I think we can guess.

What is the song that you have on your playlist that reminds you of being a child that your mum probably played the most growing up? Something that my mum would have played would be ABBA, Angel Eyes, but I think more recognisably from my dad would be In Too Deep by Summer 41. OK, I am ready for a guess here. I'm ready for a guess. Lisa, are you ready for a guess? Yes.

Yeah, yeah, go on. Let's do it. What are you going to go for? I've written my answer down. I can show everyone in the studio so they can tell I'm not cheating. That's what I've gone for. What are you going to go for? How old do you think Alex is? I am going to go for 24. And I've gone for 25.

And, yeah, I think we're both in the right ballpark. What was your theory? Because you're good on your theory. So I think it's the music that you grow up listening to. And I think you really start paying attention, you know, at that sort of primary school age to what your parents are listening to, which obviously sort of shapes your preferences. But also cars, you know, and that was quite an old, obscure car.

So if she remembers that, I think that would be, again, primary school age. So I kind of just added on the years since the Sum 41, actually, which would have been about 2009, 10-ish. So I've just added on 16 years, to be honest, to eight years old. And that's my theory.

to be honest. I didn't go into it that deeply. I just thought 25 is about right to have hit in too deep some 41 when you're at primary school and your dad's going to be taking you there. I think that's about right. Plus the...

sewing is like quite a cool nice thing to do which would have been laughed at if you were 10 years older I'd say and that's a horrible thing people were not very sort of imaginative with their hobbies when I was growing up so oh you meet six that was the other thing I reckon you'd have been teenage for that so I reckon that's about 10 15 years yeah 25 okay 25 is my guess 24 is Lisa's guess Alex how old are you what's your age again

I'm 22, guys. I'm sorry. You went a bit too old. No, I originally thought 22 and I went with 24. That was just your instinct, wasn't it? Yeah, I'm also my sister with music influence. Yumi at six, definitely. I remember back in 2008, she was...

playing them so yeah rest in peace gone on Friday they're no longer yeah you meet at six did you go to the final gigs I did yeah I managed to pick up a drumstick actually it was amazing literally amazing thank you Alex for being on the breakfast show today and Lisa he didn't quite do it but you did win yes I'll still take the win thank you very much well you have to because you have won alright Alex thanks for being on thank you cheers Lisa bye

Thanks, bye. Really fun quiz today. Jen was here. Jen, good morning.

Good morning, hello. Hello and good morning to you. Welcome to The Breakfast Show. So this team all met at Manchester Met University and we've got a load of physios. You're a physio, right? I'm a physio, Rachel's a physio. No, Rachel isn't a physio, she speaks the language and then Lou and Hannah are all physios. Lovely. So yeah, we all met 2012. Nice, and Rachel's getting married on Friday. We had her on yesterday. This is a very, very exciting week for all of you really, isn't it?

I know, it's all a bit mad because obviously we've seen Rachel and Kurt get together and get engaged and we've been waiting to do yesterday's quiz for ages so it's like everything's come at once. That's what we like to hear, Jen. Well, you're very welcome to The Breakfast Show and we have got a load of questions about stuff that happened yesterday and before we get there, we have started a new thing that we are now getting requests from the listeners about which font the quiz should be typed up in and today...

By the way, that's sort of making me want to leave sooner than waiting for 2031. Okay, so today's font of the day is 72 Monospace. Exciting. It's exciting, isn't it? Yeah, all right. Let's go.

Quiz is happening. 90 seconds. Your time starts when you give me your first answer. As long as the dinger boy's ready, I'm ready as well. Question one. Ariana Grande posted a picture of her dad, but which film does she star in alongside Cynthia Erivo? Wicked. Yes. Declan Rice scored two unbelievably brilliant free kicks against which Spanish team yesterday? Real Madrid. Correct. German police earned their stripes after discovering two zebras in a raid. What colour are zebra stripes?

Black and white. Yes. Astro Bot won best game at the Gaming BAFTAs. Give me your best impression of a very happy robot that's just won a BAFTA. I'm going to give you three points for that. It's incredible. Which abracadabra singer announced Australian dates for her tour? Lady Gaga. Correct. A universal theme park was confirmed for the UK, but how many acres would it take up? 476 or 476,000?

476. Correct. Robert Irwin shared a thirsty video from his recent underwear photo shoot. But who's his famous zookeeper dad? Steve Irwin. Yes. A scientist identified the most bitter substance known to man. But what was it? A mushroom or Amanda Holden? A mushroom. It was a mushroom. What day was it yesterday? It was Tuesday. Correct. Yesterday was National Pygmy Hippo Day. But what was the name of the Thai pygmy hippo who went viral? Mudeng or Pesto?

The first one. It is Mudeng, correct. Ed Sheeran commented on a negative review of his latest single. But what's his latest single called? Who was it, sorry? Ed Sheeran. Oh, Azizan. Correct. An escaped peacock was located yesterday. But what large appendage do they present to attract a mate? The tail feather? Oh, yes. Tail feathers is correct, yes. And Charlie Brooker revealed he won't stop what? Writing Black Mirror or consuming an entire...

horse every day? Henry, that is unhinged. Even for you, Henry, that question is unhinged. And that is the end of your quiz. Very good. The robot was fantastic, Jen. Thank you. I didn't know I had it in me. The brilliant robot. Felt like he was there in the room.

16 points today because you got a clean sweep. You're way out in front. Oh, amazing. Yeah. We're quite a competitive bunch. I'm happy with that. Yeah, I can tell. But also sort of put a dampener on the celebrations this week because you've left the bride for dust.

Sorry, Rach. Tough at the top, isn't it? It's tough at the top. You know, you've got to be number one. Yeah. Well, there you go. So, Jen, we'll see you in the final on Friday and we'll see what Hannah gets up to tomorrow. Oh, my God, we didn't give her a point for the NHS either. That's a ridiculous score. 17 for Jen on the quiz. And now, something from Vibe Chemistry. Radio One's All Day Breakfast. Mm-hmm.

Vibe Chemistry has been all over the Radio 1 playlist for a while now. You know, this is the song I'm going to play in a bit. That's got Vibe Chemistry on it. So Vibe Chemistry is a DJ and producer. And recently he had a little bit of trouble with some language.

It's a classic example of something's been lost in translation here. Someone told me that patatas bravas was like a way of saying thank you in Spanish. It's a great prank. It's a brilliant thing to try and trick someone with. So when I was out in Spain, I would get like taxis and I'd be like, patatas bravas, you know. And then basically I'm saying to them, spicy potato dish as I'm leaving. It's really good. Thanks for the cab. Lovely wine. Patatas bravas.

Thanks for the potatoes. It's a really, it's really, it's a great example. I love Vibe Chemistry 4. Well, essentially doing one of our things that we call a fact controller. So it's the thing you've only just learned, but you should have learned sooner in your life. There'll be so many of these loads in your head. There's a lot of examples of this, which will be difficult to do on the radio because if you say a certain word in a different language, slightly incorrectly, it could also be a swear word. That happens quite a lot. Think how easy it is to do here. You know,

is only one letter away from a really bad word. For example, it happens. Don't be shy. It happens to everybody. Can you beat the vibe chemistry? Patatas bravas. Thank you. Let me know. Yeah, this is more perilous than I first thought because really what we're getting sent in now is loads of swear words but in other languages. So we're going to keep on our toes, guys.

Hey Greg, you might not be able to read this out exactly, but I have... I was in a Spanish butcher's and I got this wrong and it's bad. Basically, pollo in Spanish is chicken, but if you change the O at the end to an A, then it's a male appendage. Slang for it. Fair enough. Yeah, going to a Spanish butcher's and asking for that might be tricky. You might get a little surprise.

Tom's in Lille, in France. He says, in French, beaucoup means a lot, but beaucoup means nice bottom. If you mispronounce that one, it can lead to a lot of confusion. Merci beaucoup. Thank you, nice bottom.

I had a week in Wales recently, Greg, and our friend was convinced because I told them that Cymru meant hello in Welsh. So he was basically saying Wales to every Welsh person he met. Cymru, Cymru, Cymru, Cymru. Hey, producer Tom, who's Welsh? Cymru, Cymru, Cymru. Wales, Wales, Wales, Wales, Wales.

Went to France recently on a ski trip, says someone else, and noticed my boyfriend wasn't saying au revoir, as you're supposed to, to say goodbye. He was saying olive-wa, which is in restaurants. Did he get a portion of olive-wa or not? I'd like olive-wa, please, and a glass of wine. Megan's an exeter and says, I've always referred to my breasts as patatas pravas when explaining something about them to people. Boobs feels too personal and intimate. Patatas pravas feels more appropriate. LAUGHTER

It's a good one. It's nice. Yes. Be comfortable with your potatoes, Travis. Sarah. This happened to me when I was living in Vietnam. So I thought that the word for bless you was hetzy. So I would hear people sneezing and I would say hetzy, thinking I was being polite, even though I kept getting weird looks.

Turns out that Hatsy is actually sneeze. So whenever I saw people sneezing, I was basically pointing at them and saying sneeze. Lovely, lovely stuff from Sarah. This is as good as the vibe chemistry one. Someone told me that Patatas Bravas was like a way of saying thank you in Spanish. So when I was out in Spain, I would get like taxis.

and I'd be like, ah, patatas bravas, you know? And then, basically, I'm saying to him, spicy potato dish as I'm leaving. Patatas bravas, adios. Fran, good morning. Hello. What have you got for me? What's going on? So, I went to Venezuela with some mates a few years ago. I speak Spanish. So,

So I spent the whole month doing all the translating, doing all the speaking and then after a month of this I got a bit fed up and my mate lost his key to our hotel room. So he asked me what the Spanish word for key was and I told him it was cabra, which is actually the word for goat. So he went to reception and asked for a goat for room 9 and you can imagine the sort of looks he was getting.

Well, my next question, Fran, is did he get the goat he was after? He did not get the goat he was after. Maybe he wasn't running with me. When did you tell him that it was in fact the wrong word?

Probably about five minutes after he continued to use the word to the reception staff and got some odd looks. See, this is the number one reason for learning another language, I'd say, to mess with your friends. And I think you've deployed your skills perfectly there, Fran, and I applaud you for that. I think that's fantastic. Absolutely. Well, thanks for being on The Breakfast Show. Sorry, I should say patatas bravas for being on The Breakfast Show. And have a great day. Patatas bravas to you too. Go well.

BBC Radio. Emma's in Bedford, which she says excitingly is the new home of the Universal Theme Park. Yeah, in 2031. She says, from now on, Greg, I'm really inspired by today's show. I shall now be calling my boobs Patatas Bravas from this moment onwards. Good. She says that's really excellent. It's good.

Some really good ones coming in still. We were chatting after a few drinks to a French lad who was really nice. And we spent the evening going, Kevin, Kevin, tu est un poubelle. Which we thought meant good egg. You're a good egg. But apparently it means rubbish bin. Yeah, poubelle's the bin, isn't it? What would good egg be? Bon oeuf.

Tu es un bon oeuf. You're a good egg. I bet it doesn't have the same meaning in French. You're a bon oeuf. You're a good egg. Emma. I was always told that ich bin windig means it's windy, but actually it's German, but it actually means I am windy. So I was telling people that I fart a lot. Might also be true. Might also be true, Emma.

Hi, Greg. Here's a good one. When I was on holiday in the Maldives, I told my wife that Baba Ganoush was Merry Christmas. She was saying it to all the staff for about a week. Horrid, wicked man. Radio One's All Day Breakfast. And now let's get you up to date with all the latest things. We'll start with something very stupid, but actually something quite spooky as well. You know that spooky instrument called a theremin? It's this thing.

You know the thing with the string? It sort of does that. So what someone's done is they've put some cats in a room with a theremin. And here's some cats playing with the spooky instrument. Here's a cat rubbing up against it. Here's a cat pawing at its... ..face. That's nice. Here's some cats just pacing around. Oh!

I really like it. I'm sure it set off a load of cats this morning. Sorry if it has done that. But also good morning to the good boys and the good girls. I don't know why you do cat shout-outs, but I thought I would today to share a bit of love. Next up, we go to Australian comedian...

Mitchell Coombs, who has an absolute mare whilst out and about. I was just walking along the street and someone accidentally walked into me, but the exact moment that the bump happened, I just burped in their face. Big shock, this. More details on the incident. And I've been brewing on the burp for a bit. I was like, oh, this is only going to be a quiet one. I'll just do it really subtly. Because of the shock of the impact, it turned into a burp. And I just fully belched in their face. I feel so bad. I think it's a good idea.

It's a good warning sign. Let them know you're there. We now have... We stay in Australia. It's a... Oh, my God, hang on a second. It's a double Australia! All the latest things. We also need the spray bottle because what's coming is apparently incredibly hot. Now, this has been brought to my attention by Henry, who works on The Breakfast Show. It's Robert Irwin.

The first trap himself, Robert Irwin. These are Henry's words. Steve Irwin, Crocodile Hunter's son. So he recently went viral for the underwear shoot he did. I hadn't seen this. I actually had no idea about this guy. And I said this to Henry this morning and he went, it won't be on your algorithm, but it's certainly on mine. Henry, can you show me a picture of him? It's on your background, isn't it? Go on, just show me your phone.

Okay, I get it. Yeah, I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. Anyway, he's been taking questions at the zoo from very cute kids. I've got time for one more question. What was yours? How did you get so brave? Great question. How did you get so brave?

How did I get so brave? That's beautiful. That is very sweet. The thing is, there's a difference between bravery and being afraid. I'm afraid all the time. That's okay. All the time. You know when I jump in with a crocodile? I'm afraid. It's a little bit scary. But the most important thing is how you respond to that fear. Right. So just remember that when you're thrown into the water with a crocodile. Like now!

So that's that. Have you seen him sort of wrangling a crocodile? No, but I would like to. You like that? I thought that might be the answer. And with that, you're up to date with all the latest things. Radio One's All Day Breakfast. With Greg James. We had a laugh today, in general, as we always try and do. But after the ten-minute takeover, this happened. Erase my tears.

Lincoln Park. And what I've done is a great, great choice. Really nice one from Shannon, who is busy working in Bournemouth and was very surprised when the radio called her. I went, hello, the radio's calling you. And I just wanted to get her name for the shout out. She deserves all the praise. Great choice, Shannon, says someone here on text. Also, Jeff, who's doing some housework in Richmond in North Yorkshire. Best 10 minute takeover ever.

Stephen the Bearded Painter in Newport says, do you mean to say you can see every message we've sent you ever? Yes, Stephen. And Lewis says, today has been an absolute 10 out of 10. No more radio needed 10 minute takeover. You've all earned an early finish. What, 9.15 early finish? Down tools at 9.15? I mean, if you insist. But if we go...

If we leave now, then, well, it'll be sort of, I guess they'll do an hour and a bit of hour and 45 minutes of, I don't know, what happens, what kicks in, sort of the sad obituary music, probably. The emergency tape will happen. It'll be like someone big's died. We can try it. Guys, Lewis has said we can go. All right, let's go. See you later. Everyone out. Henry, out.

Amy, out, out, out, out, out. Come on, let's go. I think it's good. It was a good show. Really good. Let's just get out. We'll close the door. All right. Have a good one. I've been walking in the same way as I did. I told you the emergency side music would start. We can't have that for too long. That would be silly. That would be silly. And we don't like being silly. BBC Radio 1.

Rhys in Cardiff says, as funny as that last bit was, Greg, it was, thank you very much, it was also quite devastating to learn that the Adele song you played is being classed as sad music because that's the same song my wife walked down the aisle to when we got married a few years ago, so that's ruined. No, don't associate it with death. The only reason this is on here is like all of these, this is the sad music page. When you hear these, someone big has died.

So when you hear this, but it's not the fact that it's, yes, it's a sad song, but it's more like there's no lyrics. So all the lyrics have been taken out of these. So this is actually weirdly upbeat, you see, but there's no lyrics. Okay, so you've got all these. You've got what else we've got here? What's this song? Good Game. Good Game? Is it a good game? I'm not sure. I don't think it's a good game. Lana Del Rey. That is good, yeah. Maybe this is a good game.

Coldplay scientist. But no lyrics, you see. No lyrics allowed. That's the thing. Yeah. Anyway, there you go. Hee hee hee. Aren't we silly? Silly, silly people. There's loads of good tunes. Absolutely cracking tunes on here. What else have we got? Thinking Out Loud. When your legs don't work like they used to before. What else? Darling, you hear me, you're all around me. Only love. Only love.

What else have we got? Hold Back the River. You are the only exception. You are the only... When you try your best but you don't succeed. Greg sings the sad songs. Out now. It's not what you want but not what you need.

Can I add something? You sound like the Victorian Ghost version of yourself. The Victorian Ghost sings the hits, sings the sad death hits. Can we pick one if you turn away and see if you know what it is? Yeah, yeah, I'll close my eyes and pick one. Pick one, pick one, pick one. I'll put some, hang on, I'll put the... Close my eyes. Heaven's in the Hall of Video Games

Mama's in the shop now, daddy's in the garden, playing with my face. It's video game. What have I done to deserve all the things I'm to do? What if I said that you are here and then you're there? Is that John Legend? Yes. I'm sorry to literally back out. Oh yeah, that was Harry Styles. Okay, last one.

What is this? What is this? Give me a minute to hold my girl. George Ezra. Oh. Go again.

That's the end of the game. And that is the end of today's Singing Songs for Sad People. Radio One's All Day Breakfast. With Greg James. Just wanted to give you a brief update on something. Yesterday I was talking about how my BBC email address is being abused by a man called Justin in Bristol. He keeps ordering Domino's with it. Although he did inspire me last night to get one. I was thinking about him and anyway... Other pizza places are available.

We noticed this on the 5th of April when Justin ordered a large original cheese and tomato classic crust and a large New Yorker classic crust for collection from the establishment in Bristol. Turns out, we wound the clock back. Justin's been doing this since 2019. And by clock, of course, I mean calendar. But 2019...

He's been using me to get his pizza deals, which is fine. It's nice to, you know, it's nice to be connected. But I launched an investigation yesterday and then ever since we mentioned it, we checked the inbox this morning.

I just want to do a big shout-out to Peter, who also ordered one last night, two for Tuesday. Pepperoni Passion, Chicken Feast, no mushrooms, mac and cheese and dough balls for a side. Came to £48.50. I feel like you could have done some more deals there. I feel like you could have played the app a little bit. We move over to John now, who's used the email to sign up to the premiere in Wi-Fi. Hope you had a good night, John. I want to take us now to an anonymous person who's ordered a Papa John's in Manchester.

Small chicken and sweet corn plus a bottle of Pepsi Max. I think you got the best deal. The person didn't put their name, and I can't read out their email because it's mine. They got the best deal. They got that for £4.99. That's down from £22 using the deal. Maybe this is my new crusade. We do a bit of a Martin Lewis money-saving expert on this. You know, cost of living and all that.

and all the tariffs flying around. We're going to need to get all the money we can off things like this. So who can get the best deal? I think that's difficult to beat. That Papa John's one, small chicken and sweet corn plus a bottle of Pepsi Max, £4.99. I'm giving you free reign to use my email address. You play those apps, sweetie. No, no, honestly, you go for it. They're asking you to. It's like a video game.

And by the way, for all those asking, still nothing from Justin. Still nothing. He's crafty. Our long-lost friend Luke popped back from his world tour. He's the audio wizard of The Breakfast Show, or one of the audio wizards of The Breakfast Show, and he popped back and we all went to the pub for a little welcome home, and I thought, I'm just going to bring Barney. We've been to the vets. He's fine, by the way. He is fine. I think he sprained a muscle, something.

Went to the vets. He's all fine. Thought, I'm just going to bring him to the pub. You liked him? Good vibes? He did the stinkiest fart I've ever smelt in my life. We were outside as well. It lingered. Yeah. And me and Amy were downwind of it. Yeah. It was bad. It was intense. Imagine that was inside. Christ. Yeah. Because...

Well, Bella said, when I got back, she went, did everyone like Barney? Was he well behaved? I went, yeah, he was really well behaved. And he went down a storm. But he did fart badly outside. And that's when you know it's bad. It sticks around in the open. In central London as well, which stinks anyway. Who farted? I heard that. I went, hmm. I heard a...

It was George Ezra. So that is the end of today's Breakfast Show podcast. And we thank you for listening and your continued support. We will be back tomorrow with more fun. Goodbye. Bye.

I'm Zing Singh. And I'm Simon Jack. And together we host Good Bad Billionaire. The podcast exploring the lives of some of the world's richest people.

And as always, Simon and I are trying to decide whether we think they're good, bad or just another billionaire. That's Good Bad Billionaire from the BBC World Service.
