Was your Monday better than mine?

OJ is live through the night from the Salford Riviera, asking if your Monday was better than his. Plus Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There and the return of Midnight Caller!

OJ is live through the night from the Salford Riviera, asking if your Monday was better than his. Plus Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There and the return of Midnight Caller!

Midnight Mastermind is the quiz where you ask the questions and test OJ on your own specialist subject. He never knows the subject beforehand and has just one song to revise before facing the questions.

Wish You Were There is your chance to soundtrack a story or situation that OJ will tell you all about. He wants your suggestions for the perfect song to capture that moment.

Midnight Caller sees OJ send a burner phone out to New Zealand, not knowing who will answer it next!
