Half-Time Hooter Time, more daftness on The Best Time of the Day Show with the Dark Lord, Alex Lester. More from Album and Record of the Week, Lester's and Listener's Libraries.

It's time for the First Half-Time Hooter of the Week on The Best Time of the Day Show. This morning, Alex is devising a new theme park which promises to be the most tedious in the world. Attractions include a frozen log flume and paintballing, in which you simply watch paint drying on a ball. The fight for gender equality continues with The Gender Converter; yes, all of us are entitled to sexist remarks. Plus, today's News Hank celeb is the two-headed cheeky chappy next-door, Ant and Dec.
From Lester's Library there is a new track from Moby and vintage reggae from Junior Mervin. The request from Listener's Library is a track from Ray LaMontagne's debut album. There is another track from Album of the Week by Scouting For Girls, Record of the Week from Train, and Pause For Thought at 3.20am.
