Off Air... with Jane and Fi

Welcome! On the agenda today is being a maverick in the bedroom - no, not like that - we're talking bed sheets, as well as having more loo roll than you let on, the definition of camp, teaching nose-blowing, and style mistakes that are 'making you look older'. 

Plus, Fi chats to Peter Hammond and Ash Smith, the real campaigners portrayed in Channel 4's Dirty Business. 

There's no podcast on Monday as Jane and Fi are both off, so we'll see you on Tuesday.

Our next book club pick is 'A Town Like Alice' by Nevil Shute.

Did Jesus come back for THIS? (with Eric Schlosser)

Jane and Fi have gone beyond broadcasters - they’re now influencers. They have a new air about them… (and that air is green tea and bergamot-scented). They also chat steamed glasses, soirée small talk, giving up smoking, Punch the monkey - and we probably owe a bit of an apology to The Observer... 

Plus, BBC Europe editor Katya Adler discusses her new documentary Europe on the Edge.

A complete PR win for Ikea (with Katya Adler)

It's our first official visualised podcast episode, so if you're listening to this, why not head over to our YouTube channel and watch it too? Jane and Fi are filled with excitement — the joys of spring and... snot. (It's all glamour over here!) In between the nose-blowing, they ask: Do people still care about VPLs? What is Victor's secret? Is Frank the cat really a cat? Plus, there are apologies to the people of Hertfordshire...
