“TalkSport has a new companion, TalkRadio. I haven’t listened to much of it yet, though the presenter line-up sounds perfectly pitched: Paul Ross, Julia Hartley-Brewer, Sam Delaney. Not so keen on George Galloway, but he’s only Friday nights. And then there’s Iain Lee.
The last time I wrote about Lee, he was taking his leave of the BBC for calling out a homophobe. But we’ve all moved on now, haven’t we, and Lee is perfectly suited to his new slot, 10pm-1am, Monday to Thursday nights. How to describe his show? It’s… a load of waffle. Brilliant, mad, unpredictable waffle. I love it. There’s not much music, the occasional caller and interview, and in between, Lee and his on-air producer, Katherine Boyle, have a laugh. And they make me laugh while they do so.
On Wednesday night, a good half-hour was filled with Lee and Boyle trying to serve a caller in a restaurant. They weren’t actually in a restaurant, you understand; it was just that Lee had been talking about going to a lunch and saying thank you to waiters, and how everything would grind to a halt without serving staff and that developed into… Oh, you know what? Give it a listen. If you don’t laugh within five minutes, it’s not for you. If you do, say hallelujah for some late-night radio that’s more than – oh God – “lively discussion” of “issues”.
