The DJ was Stuart Maconie who is sitting in for Johnnie Walker this
week.

The show can be mailed, link available here:

I -think- this competition is in the 2nd hour and the show can be
listened online for a week if you want the full interview/competition.

Stuart hi
One of your listeners mentioned the brief chat you had with a
gentleman who recently learnt to ride the unicycle.
He mentioned it here:
http://tinyurl.com/9gojm
which is basically the unicyclists' watercooler on the web.

I just wanted to mail you to thank you for portraying unicycling in
such a positive light.
No mentions of the circus or clowns (factually correct - the
unicycle
originated outside of the circus and have seen only very limited use
under the Big Top - and even then very seldom by clowns whose
trademark shoes pose quite a challange to any would-be unicycling
clown) and no suggestion that riding a unicycle is 'silly'.
Too often media people feel the need to exhibit their superiority by
denigrating something as innocuous as unicycling.

Thank you for your balanced treatment of the caller.

NAMASTE!
Dave

Hi. Thanks for the post.

I used to work cleaning offices 5-7pm, It was a pretty lonely, boring
job so I listened to the radio on my walkman.

After spending months and months going through all the stations I
finally settled on Radio 2 and its "drivetime" show which runs 5-7pm -
perfect!

This is usually hosted by Johnnie Walker but whenever he is off Stuart
Maconie covers for him.

They are both really good guys. I was not surprised to hear how Mr.
Maconie handled the subject. He really is a good guy.

More power to Radio 2 - the best radio station in the UK by far!!!!

T.
