No Sam this week, but Kris, Jenn, and Rob hold it down, playing you a selection of music new and old from around the world. Everyone is feeling a little tired, which somehow lends the show a sense of hysterical professionalism.

Rob covers a jam-packed sports segment, and follows it up with the always popular Emmerdale review.

Kris is a doctor now which is cool eh! 
Sports chat takes on a ominous talkback like quality that no one can predict and the team gets a coach fired 
Otherwise is wacky-ole business as usual

Sam and Kris are rejoined by their long lost co-host Mr Rob Bollox in the flesh. They cover some real sport, and real Emmerdale, and Sam gets into some protest music that remains just as relevent today in these troubled times.

Plato's Retreat is back baby. Sam and Kris head up this return to The Retreat, playing a mix of Italo, sleazy disco, some more clubby stuff, and of course some eclectic picks from their respective crates. Rob joins on the phone for both the Sport and The Emmerdale reviews. Thanks to all the listeners who sent their love and support during the remote radio experiements!
