Notes de l’épisode
It's only fair to acknowledge that when The Great Leader delves into the paranormal, there is occasionally an ulterior motive. We all, including The Great Leader Himself, enjoy hearing Steve get wound up by excessive detail, but this week there is something that demands a closer look. What was really going on? Plus, the Northern Lights, Scotland, counterfeit biscuits (finally) and a piece of advice from "business Steve".

Notes de l’épisode
It's D-DAY, which is not to say it's Dan day, because that's every day... THIS D-Day is dedication day, because for reasons unknown, many, many listeners made time-specific dedication requests falling on, or around this very day. It coincides with The Important Broadcast welcoming a new neighbour in the shape of Steve Jones, whom The Great Leader was not in the least bit threatened by. Plus, another Steve invention and a spooky tale from the toy box.

The Great Leader opened the doors for listeners to contribute today and luckily they didn't let themselves down. Lovely. After all that, there was still plenty more to talk about, including Steve's method for measuring olive oil and how exactly one can bridge the generational divide, should one want or need to.

Notes de l’épisode
Sometimes, the IBS emerge from your device strong, warmed up and at the top of their game. However, don't you think it would be unfair of you to expect that EVERY time? Surely you have to accept that Steve is human and sometimes, just sometimes, he might need the first 30 minutes of the show to warm up. Is that not ok!? Not to worry, because once he'd warmed up, it all fell into place. Toothbrushes, hair, team-building exercises and almost everything in between, plus a new Radio X directive for The Great Leader to try out.

Notes de l’épisode
Steve has a lot to unload this week. Luckily, The Great Leader bears the weight of a thousand men, so it is no challenge. Firstly, there are Steve's international piano lessons. Then, there's the issue of how many times he might have to go and see 'the new Nolan.' The Great Leader simply listens and advises better than any wiseman ever could. He is flawless.

Notes de l’épisode
When The Great Leader asks "who else is doing this on the radio?" it means he's about to do something that, quite literally, nobody else would dare to do on the radio. Such is his courage. Steve, to his credit, will back The Great Leader through all of this and for that he, too, should be commended. This week there are conversations which include milk, sitcoms and Father Christmas. Enjoy.

Notes de l’épisode
The Great Leader has given it a huge amount of thought and has decided that 'Retail Roulette' (an idea that the IBS half-heartedly tried out last week) could, in theory, potentially, in the right market conditions, become a semi-regular feature, depending on many factors... So that's exciting. Plus, Steve has been chatting to his bin, so there's a lot to unpack there.

For some reason, Michelle Michelle Michelle has demanded that Steve go away on something she insists on calling a "honeymoon." For that reason, Steve is absent this week, but the IBS team understands that he will return next week. Until then, a disturbing update on Silver Lightning, much discussion on the Anglesey Panic and a dog doing a wee PERILOUSLY close to The Great Leader.

Notes de l’épisode
The energy was all over the place today. At times it was frivolous and others, entirely absent. The Great Leader maintained control throughout, but there was no doubt about the energy. Steve couldn't settle himself down before the game last night, so he played on his yoga mat for a bit. Meanwhile, The Great Leader recalls the time he inconvenienced Stephen Merchant.

There was huge excitement inside and specifically above the studio today. HUGE excitement. The Great Leader contained it with ease, though, as you'd expect. As The IBS grow closer to Steve's nuptials, there is much business to attend to, like what his wife's name will be. Plus, what should you say if a friend says "I love you" and are you watching the game tonight?

Notes de l’épisode
If you're reading this and you're trying to gain some insight into this episode, think... Would The Great Leader want you going in, armed with prior knowledge? Well... It might not hurt. This episode will challenge what you think about novelty t-shirts and confound your expectations of what somebody might do if they visited somewhere called "Zip World". The Great Leader will give you most precious look into how he answers his children's questions and a YouGov survey might just have hit the nail on the head.

Scottish football fans were thrilled as they woke up this morning, but it fell to Danny Wallace, The Great Leader to deliver some very unfortunate news.

The Great Leader doesn't have 'good' or 'bad' shows. The Great Leader just has shows... Magnificent, era-defining, colossal shows. However, The Great Leader IS working with mortals and those mortals will make mistakes. They are human. It is an insult to Him, but they are only human. Steve is only human and that's why he gets so angry about his little car getting dented. Plus, cable aggression, scandal at the chip shops and a guest judge for Dinner Winner!
