Punderland XI

OJ is live through the night live from the Salford Riviera, with a Punderland XI, Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There, Yawn Chorus and Shiftfaced.

OJ has your back during the big hours, live from the Salford Riviera.

Punderland XI is where you test your pun skills. OJ gives you a theme, you have to come up with celebrity puns on that theme, to fill our team, the Punderland XI. Then OJ reveals the team in his best 5Live commentator voice.

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 picks 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.

Shiftfaced is for everyone on the nightshift, working hard to keep the country going. Tell OJ what you’re up to, who you’re with and where you are. Plus, he’s always keen to know what snacks are powering you through!
