IT'S RAINING BEN... and Lucy

Pop your hood and put your drop top back up, because it’s raining Lucy!

If you’re a fan of old school, two guest, one-on-one, live in the studio IRB, then your desperate prayers have been answered. Matthew & Me’s Lucy Fawcett takes her first dive into the radio pool with talk of dangerous pleasures, growing up rather than straight, and the right way to paint a wall. 


Is Ben back to his brilliant best? No, but he’s still damn acceptable.

IT'S RAINING BEN... Second Raindrop Edition

Many things have happened mid-show on It’s Raining Ben. Worlds have been upended, jobs have been won, and, of course, truths have been told. But this is the first time that a show coincided with the announcement of a snap election. Will it be the last? Probably.


But anyway, Ben had more pressing issues to attend to. Namely, answering questions from listeners who wrote in on Facebook. Plus there’s another story from the archive, and a final thought from friend of show, Montgomery Mackintosh.

IT'S RAINING BEN... Raindrop Edition

Throwing caution to the literal wind, Ben sets out as a solitary raindrop this week. With question balls provided by his compact army of fans, he goes one on one with the goalkeeper of life and tries his best to land a few knowledge goals in the form of answers. Why hasn't Michael Bay rebooted The Biker Mice From Mars yet? Are we living in The Matrix 2? Why did the chicken cross the road? All will be revealed.

Plus there's a story about too many birds and a brief appearance by Montgomery Mackintosh. Who could ask for more.
