    • Tuesday beginnings and the name thing Scott opened Tuesday by immediately clocking how many people share the same name, admitting it’s something that “always throws me a bit” when it happens in real life. Ellie Brennan and Tina Daheley were both in, with Scott noting it felt like “one of those proper Tuesday shows where people are very chatty already.” The opening run leaned heavily on listener messages, with Scott laughing that “we’ve not even done anything yet and you’re all already telling us your life stories,” before steering into the first big topic. The name conversation widened quickly, with Scott explaining how awkward it can feel calling out someone’s name when there are “four Davids, three Sarahs and a Mike all turning round.” Ellie chipped in that she avoids names altogether in those situations, while Tina admitted she sometimes doubles down and “says it louder and hopes the right one answers.” School awkwardness and things that still sting From names, the show slid neatly into school memories, sparked by listeners texting about moments that still make them cringe years later. Scott shared that certain things “just sit with you forever,” even when you know they shouldn’t matter anymore. Ellie recalled school situations where teachers would single people out, saying “you could feel the heat in your face,” while Tina admitted she still remembers being called out incorrectly and not correcting it because it felt worse to speak up. Listeners piled in with voice notes about assembly mishaps, being picked last, or answering questions confidently and being completely wrong. Scott read one that made him stop and say “why does this still hurt?” before admitting that radio is essentially “a safe space for all of us to relive it together.” Saying it out loud: letters and confessions The letters segment returned with Scott reading messages that people had clearly been sitting on for years. One listener wrote about finally admitting something they’d kept quiet since school, which Scott described as “quite brave, actually.” Ellie reacted quietly in the background, while Tina pointed out how often people only realise later “that they weren’t the only one feeling like that.” Scott stressed that writing it down or saying it out loud “does actually change something,” even if nothing else shifts. Several listeners followed up immediately, prompting Scott to joke that “we should probably put a warning on this show — you might accidentally process something.” Pause for Thought Pause for Thought brought the pace down, focusing on reflection and perspective. The speaker talked about noticing patterns in everyday behaviour and how people often carry things far longer than they need to. Scott thanked them afterwards, saying it was “one of those ones that sneaks up on you,” before allowing a short beat of silence before moving on. Ellie commented that it tied neatly into what listeners had already been sharing that morning, and Scott agreed, noting “sometimes the show sort of makes its own running order.” The handover At the end of the show, Scott handed over to Vernon Kay, greeting him directly and referencing the morning’s themes. Vernon responded by picking up on the listener stories, saying it sounded like “one of those mornings where people have been properly honest.” Scott agreed, replying that “they really have today,” before outlining what had been covered.
