OJ sits in for Steve Wright and keeps you entertained all afternoon, live from the Salford Riviera.

Mid-Afternoon Mastermind is the quiz where you ask the questions and test OJ on your own specialist subject. He never knows the subject beforehand, and has just one song to revise before facing the questions.

Our Tunes gives a family of Radio 2 listeners the chance to choose 30 minutes of their music. No matter how far apart they are over the holiday season, this is their chance to come together and play their favourite tunes on Radio 2.

Wish You Were There is your chance to soundtrack a story or situation that OJ will tell you all about. He wants your suggestions for the perfect song to capture that moment.

OJ brings you some of the best interviews from his One Hit Wonders show.
