After a recent crisis with the drummer from The Magic Numbers, it turns out that he was just having a bit of beef with Scott for a joke. Scott feels a bit relieved about this, but he didn’t mind the idea of having beef with some big music stars. And he’s also having problems with the promotion of Kaiser Chiefs tickets in the game ‘Oh My God, I Can’t Believe It’, as he likes to make up lies to provoke reactions, and so telling a white lie could be a problem. Chappers still thinks they should have done a feature involving riots. As listeners rightly point out, his timings are crap, so he hopes no one calls in because of that.
This week’s Record of the Week involves ‘The Creeps – Fedde Le Grande’.
You’ve Been Busted
It’s the return of You’ve Been Busted this week. And it’s a bizarre one involving major American R’n’B singer Akon. Beth was on today who met a guy who’d chatted her up whilst she was with her uni friends, in an American accent, but didn’t quite have a convincing enough accent. He said he was a record producer, who was rather attractive, and asked if she could sing. She couldn’t sing, but he said she could make him a star back in his hotel room. He said he’d worked with Akon, Mariah Cahrey and Kanye West. Not only that he gave her an English money number. She was having none of this. She searched for ‘Jason Travillion’ (the name he gave) online but had no results, and Akon had no idea who he was. Beth gave ‘Jason’ a call, and the extent to how poor his American accent was revealed! She said she had a good singer friend to introduce to him, and put Akon on the phone. He gave Jason an ‘audition’, and was left speechless trying to work out what was going on.
Laura has found a brand new show that she’s loving on Tuesday night on BBC Three at 9pm. It’s called Wedding Stories, and everyone has many different stories. There’s three couples they’re following at the moment. We heard from Siobhan and Darren, who spent their honey moon in Pizza Hut.
Listen in tomorrow for more from Wedding Stories, and will Scott turn up after his night out at a MIKA gig?
You can listen back to the best bits from today’s show here.
