Every day this week is 4 new 2 hour Anthems blocks!

Every link was "that was Artist - Song on BBC Radio 1, now it's Artist - Song on BBC Radio 1".On 03/10/2026 at 17:52, Jay79x said:Bobbi Bunker has replaced Luke Carr on Weekend Early Breakfast which is probably for the best?Luke's currently doing the Anthems show that's going out on the stream right now and he's not doing a bad job, he's talking more about the music. I find with Weekend Early Breakfast they're not able to do anything as they have 1 hour to play songs leading to nothing else being able to happen.

October 8Oct 8 Feels like Going Home should just be renamed Katie and Friends now for at least a little bit of consistency. Nonetheless, I have been getting back into R1 and R2 a lot over the past few days, Spotifying just ain't the same and gets lonely. The Good Groove is filling in gaps in my R&B/soul/disco knowledge I never knew I had too. There is no need to pick a side when it comes to R1 and R2, flick between the two and you can have the best of both worlds, with R1 Anthems filling the void with slightly edgier but ageing things that the latter isn't ready for yet. Also great to hear Suggs on the former for presumably the first time since 1999 with his soon-to-be iconic collaboration, Track!**Pain in the ass editing this every time I play it but the personal chart must be accurate!

October 8Oct 8 Been watching Celebrity Traitors and was reminded of that five minutes of when Maya Jama was the future of Radio 1 and they crowbarred her into Scott and Chris' show and it was totes awks. But at least she was live!They never seem to learn when it comes to influencers and YouTubers. The listeners hate it and their followers don't all flock to R1 in droves either.IT DOESN'T WORK!

Friday at 23:335 days Who do you think the surprise guest for Live Lounge on 28/10 is? Maybe Dua Lipa, Tom Grennan, Tinie Tempah or Sabrina Carpenter Edited Friday at 23:335 days by Sami Hook Jama
Saturday at 10:074 days Raye and her sisters I think (considering it’s just a few days after her Royal Albert Hall show)

Not that she'd never heard Stick Season, which would be very hard to believe for such a big hit.
