Ever heard a bin playing a saxophone? Ever heard Chris Moyles playing a harmonica? Well, I’m not comparing the two…but you’re in for a treat…

Hello and welcome to The Chris Moyles Show on Radio X podcast! It’s episode 461 and a whole load of guests and giggles await you, my friend. 

The week began with both disappointment and celebration, when The £25k Box was unlocked at long last and oh my Buck Rogers, that was exciting. 

The week began good n’ proper with a visit from William Hanson, the etiquette-expert, who taught Chris and the team that slurping on your super-noodles or demolishing a burger is NOT the polite way to go about things. Next, comedian and presenter Joel Dommett momentarily stepped aside from dad-duties to pop to the studio ahead of his 4th round of presenting the NTAs. Then, Blur legend Graham Coxon dropped by for the greatest achievement in his musical career: teaching Chris how to play the harmonica…prep your ears…you’ve been warned! Also, presenter and author Ross Kemp, who fears nothing and has interviewed the most dangerous gangs in the world, tells a chilling story about losing a toenail. Finally, best-selling author Richard Osman comes in, telling us about his brand new novel, ‘We Solve Murders, and the wonderful Leigh Francis chats about his brand new autobiography, ‘Leigh, Myself and I’, and the little man at the end of his bed. 

So go on, hit play and get to it! You’ll also hear about…

• Chris’ new bin band
• A very special Greggs delivery
• Pippa getting something stuck

Also this week, Chris and Tiff had to say goodbye to their lovely cat, Chewie. Chris was so grateful for all your texts of love and support and our thoughts are with them both. RIP Chewie <3 

Enjoy! 

The Chris Moyles Show on Radio X

Weekdays 6:30am-10am

This episode contains detailed discussion around mental health and self-harm. If you or someone you know has been affected by anything you hear in this episode please speak to your GP.

Dame Kelly Holmes is one of the UK’s most popular athletes. She’s a double Olympic champion. She’s a Commonwealth champion. She’s a European champion. She set and holds the British records in both the 800m and 100m races.

Growing up, Kelly struggled with school. It was her PE teacher that spotted her talent for running and encouraged her to apply herself. Kelly said that just one person believing in her had the power to turn her life around.

Her memoir ‘Unique’ has just been released – and she has bravely told her story of publicly coming out as a gay woman – from living in fear of being outed in the Army and at major sporting events to the freedom and contentment she has owning her identity and sexuality.
