Alex Lester

Fight off those post-Christmas blues by tuning into Alex on the Best Time of the Day Show for a dose of night owl comedy and fantastic music. Like all of your favourite programmes at this time of the year, Alex is hosting a Review of the Year show, reviving some of those threads from earlier in the year that are too good for the cobwebs: our niche shop, Enigmas 'R' Us; moments in the spotlight of shame in Closed Door Cabaret; and we are naming tours for those artists that really should call it a day in the One More Encore Tour. There is a new Record of the Week from Rumer, a track from Fats Domino from the Listener's Library and tracks by Elvis Costello and Howlin' Wolf. Plus, Pause for Thought with Michael McMahon. Nobody else, nowhere else.
