Welcome! It's Early Breakfast with Owain Wyn Evans, featuring Airdrum Anthems

The perfect way to kick-start your day with sparkle, stories, and serious air-drumming!

Whether you’re an early riser, a night-shifter, or just here for the joyful chaos, Owain is back with another morning full of fun, featuring your messages, a sprinkling of sparkle, and of course, the triumphant return of Airdrum Anthems - your go-to soundtrack for an early morning boogie (or dramatic hair flick).

Today’s big talking point: your furry friends and their very special talents!
Why? Because Owain has discovered that the humble cockatoo isn’t so humble after all, it boasts a frankly fabulous repertoire of 30 unique dance moves.

Naturally, Owain wants to hear all about the clever (and occasionally chaotic) things your pets can do. From piano-playing pussycats to dogs that dance on command, we’re celebrating animal antics in all their glory.

Speaking of birds… at 5:30, it’s time for your daily dose of joy of news in the "Yous”, where we spotlight your stories and moments from across the country.

Today’s headline? The unforgettable moment when Chesney Hawkes met Chesney THE Hawk.

Airdrum Anthems is back for another rousing celebration of all things pop and rock orchestra marking the current BBC Proms season in true Owain style.

Fancy being part of the show?
Whether you’ve got a dancing dog, a singing guinea pig, or just want to say hello ... Owain would love to hear from you.

Missed the magic this morning? No worries!
Just ask your smart speaker to “rewind to 4am” and catch up on all the fun, music, and feathered fancy footwork you might have missed.
