Fire up your podblasters; Answer Me This! Episode 306 has arrived:
Today we consider:
Ainsley Harriott
Extreme Wink Murder
standing desks
Britney Spears’s haircare range
Barry Norman’s pickled onions Paul Simon’s chicken and eggs
yellow dusters
skateboarding and similar activities
having ‘a bit of fun’ on Tinder
and
Chicken Kiev.
Plus: Olly’s madeleine is the Bernard Matthews Mini Kiev; Helen is sitting all the way to skating glory; and Martin the Sound Man preaches discretion when encountering colleagues on Tinder. Got something to confess, Martin?
Today’s Bonus Bit of Crap on the App is another Stanley Mann Special, this time how he’s way ahead of his time with fashion trends. Full of surprises, that Mann. Hear on your iDevices, Android and Windows gadgets.

••• AMT306 Child-Friendly Rating: 47%. Quite a few swears. Some crudity towards the end, involving One Direction’s bodily fluids, polishing wood, and Tinder. •••
Your emails are so full of surprises! For instance, I was amazed to learn from Luke aka Boney Stark that not only does Suffolk have a roller derby club, it has MORE THAN ONE roller derby club:
I help run Suffolk’s first co-ed roller derby club, Suffolk Roller Derby. Most roller derby events have a theme and punny name for example “Mad Smax: Beyond Rollerdome” and “Skate from Alcatraz”. Can you suggest any for our upcoming events that will take place in our home town Bury St Edmunds?
Buried Alive?
Suffolk You Up?
Bury St Edmutherfuckers? Sugar Beet You to Oblivion? Ab(bey)olition?
Alright readers, your turn. Skate over to the comments and offer Luke some suggestions for his co-ed wheely carnage.
