Crunch & Roll

S02 E06 - Martin Kelner


Listen Later

Listeners to Five Live's Fighting Talk will know each episode ends with the two highest scorers defending a controversial or unpopular opinion in order to win the episode.

So, in that vain: Martin Kelner knows nothing about radio and deserved to be paid less than a horse.

Of course he knows nothing about radio. He's only spent the best part of half a century in the industry. Radio 2? Radio Who more like! So what if he introduced Caroline Aherne and Jake Yapp to us? Victoria Wood was absolutely right to walk out on his interview with her. And Edouard Lapaglie has carried him for years!

Actually, that might be a Defend the Indefensible too far.

Martin is, as Foxy puts it, radio royalty. So we insist you be upstanding while listening to this episode.

There's strong language and we must warn you that this episode includes the funniest story ever told on this podcast, so spare undergarments may be required.
