The best thing about your August (so far)

OJ makes being awake fun, with Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There and Shiftfaced.

OJ makes being awake fun, live from the Salford Riviera.

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.

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