Someone out there is surely archiving for statistical analysis Delvin Melvyn's choices of tea or coffee at the end of each podcast edition of In Our Time on #BBCR4. (real knife-edge stuff today, eventually plumping for a small coffee with "I'm fed up with tea".)
Always find it amusing when radio interviewees fail to distinguish between renumerated and remunerated.
Not sure that this smugness counts, or will ever pay off?

Really struggled to focus during today’s episode of Appetite for distraction 😅

Amazon AWS now signed a deal for 3 SMRs to feed their power requirements. BBC R4 report that energy needs are set to increase 160% with 19% required by AI by 2028.
So that's the Microsoft 3 Mile Island refurb, 7 SMRs for Google and 3 more for Amazon. Meta next for sure. Our new nuclear powered overlords have arrived, and no one seems even inclined to do anything about any of it.
The Reunion on #BBCR4 on Blair's first 100 days. On a visit to Northern Ireland:
"Remember Tony [Blair] stood in that huge cow pat? And he stunk the helicopter out on the way back."

Someone has dialled into James O'Brien's Mystery Hour with a question about the car in the river scene in The Archers. James' answer was: "It must be true because it is in The Archers". 😂
#BBCR4 In #Ivanovo a tiny bookshop shines a light of hope, dignity and truth into the dystopian Russia of today. #Orwell, #Kafka et al show the true ideals of Russian people, #fraternity, empathy and truth. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckrr1k1xl0lo
#BBCR4 #KemiBadenoch gets increasingly crabby as she flails about trying to answer questions on the Tory #gender proposals. Amazing that Badenoch is at the top of Govt, but then this Govt are all like that. #SunakOut #rejoinEU #ToryCorruption #TorySleazeParty #StandWithUkraine
Congrats to #DameDianaJohnson for resisting #NickRobinon 's attempts to make her say the #police should have the right to say which organisations can hold protests and when.

Had to turn Lyse Doucet off.
She was getting on my nerves.

#BBCR4 Listening 2 #TomPursglove one would be excused if one thought this MP was deluded. He talks about at most a few hundred migrants 2 #Rwanda. His Govt has presided over 175K & rising unprocessed migrants in UK. #ToryIncompetence #ToryCorruption https://shorturl.at/gqx14 #SunakOut
@catzilla Not exactly. But #SlicedBread on #BBCR4 kind of does this
Well I never thought I'd hear that on #bbcr4 !! #MattHancock #BrownAnkles
"Keir Starmer is positioning himself slightly to the right of Keir Starmer, distancing himself from the wacky left wing policies he supported when he came into office"
