The usual Guess the Year (featuring escaping coos!) and Beat Detective are back fro another week!

Shannon welcomes guests Mike Hendry, Robert McGregor, and Halde Pottinger to discuss the Mikeysline 10th Year Anniversary Comedy Tour. They share their experiences in comedy, the importance of mental health awareness, and the impact of their charity work in the Highlands. The conversation also touches on summer songs and the camaraderie among comedians. Tune in for a blend of laughter and meaningful discussion.

The Usual Guess the year and Bet Detective return as well as discussing the best summer songs of all time!

In this week's episode of the Saturday Drop In, we take a lively stroll through the world of music, television, and some cheeky banter about the age-old debate: is it a 'dustpan and brush' or a 'brush and shovel'? Join our host as they navigate through memorable tunes, quiz the audience with 'Guess the Year', and share exciting updates from Highland Hospital Radio's outreach at Tesco. We even fin out Producer Bill had a delightful chat with musician Ben Walker at Heartlands!

Shannon and Tom have another bit of fun and laughter (at their own expense) to entertain and inform while you are getting well in hospital or anywhere across the world.

With it being International DJ Day, Shannon takes inspiration for this week's This or That and shows up how out of touch with modern life is.

It's gets better for Tom though as he gets Guess The Year and Beat Detective. Way to end the first half of the year on a high!
