Big news folks: Our podcast is becoming a BBC Radio 4 show! 🎉

A HUGE thank you to everyone who tweeted me to say they enjoyed #bbcslicedbread on BBC Radio 4 I’m SO chuffed the extended Podcasts reached #5 in iTunes’ main chart!! (& #1 in Health!) itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the… Loads of suggestions for fads to investigate if we get series2 too 🤞

Chuffed that BBC Radio 4 are playing out daily reruns of original Sliced Bread episodes over the festive break. Many more investigations over on BBC Sounds AND the podcast eps are often longer and can include updates added since first radio play too 👍 bbc.co.uk/sounds/series/…

Now that's right up our street 🍞... Keep those suggestions coming folks, we're hoping to make a whole series soon (when we secure some 💷!) x.com/krissbuddle/st…
