Mystery Hour is the greatest hour of weekly radio that I'm not in.

Teachers, ceasefires, solidarity & the continuing carnage in Gaza.

It's also the most Partridgey radio segment I can think of

Try Ian Payne, 4am till 7am (yeah, i know..). More Partridgey than the Blessed Partridge hisself ever could be.

He drives me insane
I get more impatient with him, than I do @ficknerrarilbc.bsky.social

But, I can see the partridge side your talking about

pablosquared.bsky.social•201 days ago

I think the cluelessness is deliberate, in lieu of an actual point of view. Often, I switch on only to switch off five mins later,. 5am radio should be whalesong and bongos.

Ferarri is a cynical rabble rouser whose morality is a tradeable commodity. I can pick out the dog whistles at 80 paces.

His talent is squeezing 6 callers into the last 4 minutes of his show having spent the previous 56 minutes talking garbage with someone from AJ Bell.
Good morning

Hah! Yes. It's almost like he's trying to sound professional and engaged to the Ferarri crowd, hoping they'll tune in for the 56 minutes tomorrow.

He's a RAJAR, as we say in Glasgow.

Oooo, RAJAR Glasgow, do expand.
I remember fondly Stor was the burning smell of the dust on the rads when fired up after the summer

Love Scottish and Irish colloquial language

He had a caller the other day, who dropped

Your line of questioning is interesting, you ask a follow up question in hope of discrediting what they are trying to say.

He was briefly stunned

Beautiful moment!
I think the chap was Nigerian, wonderfully eloquent. More so than I. Broke his method

That's his usual tabloid schtick - except for times when he's interviewing Tory ministers when it's all bonhomie and shared in-jokes. And yet, still no gong awarded. They must hate him.

We are all 'in' mystery hour. It's that kind of thing.

In the 80's I was an insurance man for Royal London, going around collecting life insurance premiums on a monthly basis, I had one lovely, talented lady who didn't own a TV, she had the radio for company, one day when I went she'd painted her stairs in a woodgrain effect that was truly remarkable.

I got confused and thought that you were suggesting that the biggest problem in life was mystery hour. 🥴

It's a recurring appointment in my work calendar
