Sam MacGregor spent 36 seconds listening in after Danni Diston accidentally "boob dialled" him, and the pair turned it into a full WhatsApp debate on how long it's acceptable to stay on the line after a pocket dial. Danni argued her case by pointing out exactly where the call came from: "the lesser spotted boob dial." Listeners piled in with their own stories, including one from Louise whose ex stayed on a pocket dial for two and a half minutes before texting to ask if she meant to call, and Liam from Brecon, who pocket dialled his old boss just as the boss was slagging him off to colleagues.

Listen: The boob dial debate
Inspired by Matt Edmondson and Mollie King's blindfolded hugging experiment the day before, Sam and Danni tried to prove they knew each other better than Matt and Mollie know each other. Danni was blindfolded and had to pick Sam out from eight mystery huggers lined up in the Radio 1 office. After working through the line-up, she correctly identified Sam on hug number three, prompting Sam to declare, triumphantly, that they'd beaten their colleagues at their own game.
Harry Kane's Ballon d'Or win got a big celebratory mention, with Sam and Danni revisiting his old PE teacher's verdict that he "wasn't blessed with great pace." There was also a quiz catch-up with wedding-bound listener Maddie, who didn't recognise Danni's name when asked if she'd mention her in a wedding speech, a moment the pair said deserved a place in "Greg's Friday clip."
