The Dark Lord presents The Best Time Of The Day Show. Includes The Listeners' & Lester's Library, Album & Record of the Week and Pause For Thought at 3.20am.

Alex, aka The Dark Lord, presents his unique blend of great music and offbeat conversation. This morning, the Pallet Party continues with new offerings including pallets of chocolates, bins, envelopes...and tile adhesive. What can you bring to the party? Alex continues to celebrate the world cup in his own unique way, and we are also adding an extra day to the week in the thread, Design a Day. Plus, there are a new batch of inductees welcomed into the 4.15 One-Off Canteen.
From Lester's Library this morning, there is the new single from Temper Trap, and a track from the latest album by Jack Johnson. Your choice from the Listener's Library comes from Dean Friedman. There is a new Album of the Week from Lissie and Record of the Week from Scouting for Girls. Pause for Thought with Alison Murdoch at 3.20am.
