BBC Radio 2 - OJ Borg, Your Best Friend

OJ hears your best stories of you and your best friend, on International Best Friends Day.

OJ hears your best friend stories on International Best Friends Day, plus Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There, Yawn Chorus and Shiftfaced.

OJ keeps you entertained through the night, live from the Salford Riviera.

On International Best Friends Day, he has your best friend stories. 

Midnight Mastermind is the quiz where you ask the questions and test OJ on your own specialist subject. He never knows the subject beforehand, and has just one song to revise before facing the questions.

Wish You Were There is your chance to soundtrack a story or situation that OJ will tell you all about. He wants your suggestions for the perfect song to capture that moment.

Yawn Chorus sees OJ pick a different theme each week. He picks a song each day related to that theme, and then come Friday it’s your chance to get your song played on Radio 2 in the head-to-head. 

Shiftfaced is for everyone on the nightshift, working hard to keep the country going. Tell OJ what you’re upto, who you’re with and where you are. Plus, he’s always keen to know what snacks are powering you through!
