Weekend Boasts

OJ is live through the night from the Salford Riviera, with Weekend Boasts, Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There and Yawn Chorus.

OJ keeps you entertained through the night, live from the Salford Riviera.

Weekend Boasts is your chance to show off about the best bit of your weekend. However big or small, OJ wants to know.

Midnight 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.

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.

Yawn Chorus sees OJ pick a different theme each week. He chooses a song each day related to that theme, and then come Friday it’s your chance to get your song played on Radio 2 in the head-to-head.
