AMT353: Despacito, Apples for Teacher, and Glory Holes 03.08.2017

To borrow from The Song Of The Summer 2017, let AMT353 in the walls of your labyrinth. IE your ears. What did you think we were talking about? A duck's complicated nether regions?

AMT351: Stoned Dads, Dragons, and Getting Verified on Twitter 01.06.2017

Answer us this: how would you define 'Afternoon Delight'? 1. Settling down to watch Countdown with a nice cup of tea (not Lipton) and a nice biscuit (not one that gives you a 20-year-long health fear)? 2. Bit of post-lunch pre-dinner nookie? 3. Listening to AMT351, admittedly a delight at any hour of the day? Find out more about this episode at . Tweet us http://twitter.com/helenandolly Facebook h...

AMT349: Citizen's Arrests, The Shipping Forecast and Cheddaring 06.04.2017

If you win a year's supply of Weetabix, how much Weetabix do you actually get? And where will you keep it? (And why would you want it?)

AMT348: Fruit Machines, Caesar Salads and Jelly 02.03.2017

AMT347: Vampire Bats, Mugshots and Shaven Eyebrows 02.02.2017

After AMT347 we have more questions than when we started, eg: Is Michael Parkinson really a giant? Are chocolate fondant puddings actually sexy or is that Olly's desperation talking?

AMT340: Fitbits, Whale Poo and Mushy Peas 22.09.2016
