Join us for A Wee Natter in the #talkshow that covers the not-so-important issues of the day. This week we touch on that thing you both love and hate at the same time. Whether it's the gym or that American TV series that's just too much to commit to. We also chat about celebrity a well known singer dropping by Mansfield to turn on the Christmas lights. Though not all famous faces are quite so recognisable!

Remember back to your days in school. Did you ever change the lyrics on songs and what did you change them to? Often it resulted in a much ruder and much funnier rendition of the classics. Oh, and it turns out Marc used to play an instrument in the school orchestra but what was it?

After that, Jenny illuminates us on what the BIG light is all about and why you don't use it. Even if you probably ought to! Though compared to the free lazer eye surgery you get from modern car headlights it's nothing.

It's not all fun and games though as we continue to give out serious consumer advice in the hunt for the perfect chocolate yule log for your Christmas dinner table. This week brins a surprise as special isn't quite special enough. And on the topic of surprises, there are some things in life that need a soundtrack.

Things may be kicking off in Australia with I'm A Celebrity but there are some unexpected visitors in the UK that we think are more interesting. Though why they're in Scunthorpe is yet to be determined. All before Jenny admits we're talking rubbish.

Join us for A Wee Natter, the chatshow/talkshow/podcast about the not so important issues of the day. In this week's episode we kick things off with a look at the gifts you gave or received that were not appreciated. In the hopes of making ourselves a bit happier, we find out what you'd do if you won an insane amount of money,

With Valentines making an appearance this week, we explore what a budget romantic night could look like... and the ways it could go wrong! Powered by love, we take a trip back in history to check out the first Japanese astronaut. The time travel continues with a look back to the Sarajevo Winter Olympics. Somehow it's 40 years ago this week!

Elected returns with a visit to the shops and a plan to solve the problem of sweet treats becoming smaller. Whoever came up with "fun size" probably hasn't had fun in a long time. Talking of returns, the outdated 100 question quiz returns with us puzzling over where loofahs come from. It's probably not where you're thinking of.

We then take a trip to an old BHS store where snails are taking over. Is it all part of a sinister plot? It all gets more complicated when we find out something mind blowing about the Amazon river.

Join us for A Wee Natter, the radio show about the not so important issues of the day. This week we kick off by building the soundtrack to your life. What songs should be playing in both the important and not-so-important moments we encounter every day? You come up with some interesting suggestions.

After getting you to pick the best version of I Will Always Love You in Covers vs Originals, we then explore what's in a name. Turns out they're complicated, hide some low key conspiracies and might get you some free food.

In the meantime things kick off in the online chat about KitKats. That then brings us to the topic of things kicking off in Ollerton. Why do some people just want to destroy good things? That in turn triggers a conversation about what kind of dog you are. We're going full local radio. Never go full local radio. Especially when you've got listeners from Canada dropping in.

In this week's Elected we tackle the issue of people that don't understand e-mail etiquette. If they can't handle modern technology, it's time to teach a lesson with old fashioned punishment. We then move into the world of champagne in the Super Shonky Sunday Quiz. Is it too posh for us?

On a different note, does Google Photos also do that weird thing for you? Who doesn't love a trip down memory lane to that time you took an electricity meter reading.

It also turns out Marc made a few mistakes. Watch as he apologises for screwing up some simple things he really should know better about. That then leads to a Top 10 list of back to the office tricks employers are trying before reaching for the P45.

In the hope of improving morale, we then visit the world of cats on the Internet.
