About this episode

Jon and Angela discuss emergency text messages, 80s music, and listener stories.

Jon and Angela are back with your emergency Saturday morning alert. We have listeners' suggestions for what emergency text message they would send to the entire country, Jon stands up for an iconic 80s band, we have a bumper crop of Literal infractions, and Angela Barnes spins another Yarn, but is it true? Play along at home, and let us know if there's anything you'd like to add by emailing jon@absoluteradio.co.uk
