Whoever is on right now: marry me. (Anon, 01:30) // I only tuned in to complain about the jazz. It has been six hours. (Bren, 22:10) // You said my name on air and my nan screamed. (Jodie, 09:15) //

The 3 am bloke who only plays B-sides deserves a statue. (Rhys, 03:12) // Put the kettle on, I am texting from your doorstep. (Lou, 16:33) // My dog howls at your jingle. We call it a duet. (Petra, 08:27) //
