The Best Time of the Day Show with Alex brings you more great music and unpredictable chat to keep you entertained through the small hours. Album and Record of the Week included.
Fight off those Monday blues by tuning into Alex on The Best Time of the Day Show for a dose of night-owl comedy and fantastic music. After a week off, Alex returns to declare it National Hidden Talent week; some of these talents really should remain hidden! In the thread On the Road Again, we are setting the scene of passenger terminals with those things you always see: the sport team, the crying girl, the complaining man, the overly-tanned elderly man wearing an obscenely bright shirt and a sombrero. Plus, we investigate if life as we know it is really just a dream. Very deep. The 4.15 One-Off Canteen is back in business and there is more Pause for Thought at 3.20am.
On the music front, there is a track from Gary Moore and a new track from Trace Adkins in Lester's Library. Your choice from the Listener's Library comes from Iggy Pop. There is a track from the new Album of the Week by Manic Street Preachers, plus Record of the Week from Elton John and Leon Russell.
