With Lester's and Listeners' Libraries, the first Half-Time Hooter of the week, Album and Record of the Week and Pause for Thought, all on the Best Time Of The Day Show.

An early morning mix of music & conversation, including the first Half-Time Hooter of The Week. The thread, "Annie, Get Your Nun" goes on, with more tales on how to use nuns as weapons. Alex is still being transformed into a drag queen; further suggestions include Tequila Mockingbird and Gertie Girdle. The new thread, The Stuck Story Sticky, asks: where have you been stuck? News Hank today is another child of the Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne.
There is a new track from The Black Keys and one from Dwight Yoakam from Lester's Library, plus a track from rockers Airbourne from the Listener's Library. There is another track from Album of the Week by The Avett Brothers, Record of the Week from Renee Fleming, and Pause for Thought at 3.20am.
