One listener asks Joe for parenting advice on how to be honest with a child growing up in a world as bleak as Joe sees it.

Darren admits a deep fear of beans that uncovers a childhood trauma, and he takes great joy in a question about scrapping with a badger.

There’s a claim birthday cakes and parties are middle class and we have another strike over the buses and trains debate(s), which leads to Darren wondering about being stalked by a number 9 bus.

There’s  call to bring back a 90s TV classic and we hear about Joe’s encounter with a listener.

And we ask, who’s cleaning the Port Tunnel?
