Jo & Sparky ”Off the Radio”

Episode 32 - You should hand back your Citezenship

Ey up Duckies, 
Hope you had a good weekend. 
We start with terrifying news about Dynamic pricing, which will get you angry. We hope it's just a rumour. 
We have an amazing story about a celeb in the wild. You won't believe who has been spotted on an EasyJet flight. 
Listeners' Britishness has been brought into question as we discuss drink habits. Can you have a weak cup of tea and be proper British? 
Is there a job you need to do that you'd be willing to pay someone else to do for you, for a price?

Episode 31- Jam Doughnut

Happy Monday! 
Let us bring some fun to the start of your week! 
In this episode, Jo has found a new way of saving cash, and it sounds BRILLIANT! Don't worry, she's willing to share the love. 
Sparky's weekend has been nearly ruined by something that'll make your head itch. 
Your obsession with bin chat continues, as we hear big news for the people of Derby regarding the bins. 
A pre-warning, last week's vom stories have triggered a load of listeners to share their own. You will have the choice to hang around at the end of the episode if you want to hear it. 
On top of that, we play Guess the Year and Kids Tell Fibs! 
Keep an eye on our socials as we start on our new Radio station, Magna Radio, this weekend.

Episode 30 - Sprinkle some sawdust on top

Happy Monday! 
We should make it clear that in this episode, there are some conversations that contain vomit! SORRY! It's been a tough week in Sparky's house. 
 Jo wanted to bring back an old feature, "Fate watchers", as she has been touched by the hands of fate itself this week. You might have a story to share.
We have had so much love for last week's adults-only episode. Someone injured themselves whilst laughing, listening. Hear about that. We have now made the adult-only episodes available separately from the monthly subscription on our Patreon page. Click to link to check them out.

Some more celebs in the wild stories, you won't believe who's been spotted in Morrisons, Newark! 
 
Thanks for joining in as ever! Keep sharing the podcast as it's continuing to grow brilliantly.
 
Sorry again for the sick chat.

Episode 29 - Big on Bins in 2026

Ey up, Ducks! 
Let's go with another week!
We start the episode with excitement for Sparky's second Christmas as his mum is coming up with presents Santa left at hers! Anyone else still got a Christmas celebration to have?
Jo has been stalking a celebrity and earned a special award for it! Yes, she is that person on Facebook! 
A.I. is getting a lot of stick on this podcast lately so it probably means we'll be the first ones taken out when the robots rise to defeat the humans. 
People are obsessed with giving us bin updates, and it sounds like it's been a tough few weeks for one listener in Derby. 
A voicenote from a treadmill and more humbling stories from people who have "had a fall" in the recent icy weather. 
Don't forget this Wednesday's Patreon episode is an Adults only epsiode. Don't miss out, you can subscribe to our Patreon by clicking this link.

Happy new week!!! 
Bringing some early joy to your week. 
Jo is smashing her New Year's resolution. It's her year, and she promises not to fail, and she has a really special reason as her inspiration for nailing it!    
Jo is also fuming because something she was expecting to go into the sale, hasn't! Has anyone had any January sales wins or losses?? 
Some great stories from listeners who have made it onto TV. 
Sparky has thrown some shade at a national treasure who appeared on a celeb special over Christmas. Plus, Guess the Year and Kids tells fibs.

Episode 26 - Ask us Anything?

Happy Christmas week!!!
As it's Christmas week, we're giving you something a little different. 
An Ask Us Anything episode where we answer questions you have sent in, and we don't hold back. 
We talk about the most awkward places we've had conversations about our jobs. (You won't believe it) 
 What jobs would we do if it wasn't radio? 
How do we feel about Harvey working for the new breakfast show? and we talk about the biggest misconceptions about our job. 
Oh, and Jo finally gives us an answer about going on The Chase.
 
Thanks so much for all your support this year. ~Its been a massive change for us, but your loyalty and suport means so much to us. 
Have a great Christmas.

Happy Monday, Ducks! 
We start with more excitement about our news! Have you heard yet? We're gonna be back on the radio soon. However, don't worry, for those who have been asking, the podcast will be continuing!
A twist of fate that has to have been caused by THIS podcast has happened to Sparky this week. How do strange coincidences like this happen?

Episode 24 - "A Christmas tree is just for Christmas, A bookcase is for life"

Happy Monday, Ducks! 
As this episode goes out, we have some news to share with you. (maybe) If it's been announced publicly. Otherwise, keep an eye on our socials. (ooooooo tease) 
It's safe to say the podcast has created quite a community. We have now got to the point where listeners are asking other listeners questions through the podcast. 
How patient are you with your Advent calendar? because we have a voice note that takes patients to new levels. 
And a story of the most petty and fun couple battle that you will love! Is there a chance that there is another couple that could be as petty as this?!

Episode 23- "If it doesn't have a price on it, you can't afford it"

Pinch, punch first of the month, Ducks! 
On day one of Advent, we spend a bit of time talking about all the types of Advent calendars that are out this year! 
We have a message from a listener that may have got the rules changed on Tesco Clubcard because of what can only be described as minor fraud!😅
Sparky is on a Tightness rant! Trying to protect the price of your Christmas. Furious at what some places are trying to charge for food for your Christmas table. (Have your volume button ready for this bit)
