Awash With Clever Nibbles

It's Krampus time, with a buffet of party food, bons vivants, badly placed benches, and wire coat hangers.

In the first week of December, Martin and Shawn have officially entered 'party food mode', and a bon vivant called Alan is unstoppable on the dance floor. The rest of the conversation is dominated by sightings of badly placed benches and the many uses for a wire coat hanger.

We head to the land where the Krampus roams for a St Nicholas Day skate, and Liza fires off her first festive tune of the season. Alongside a lively bit of Blur, something new from Olive Jones, the disco jazz of Brick, and the best-selling single of '71.

To listen to the show on most smart speakers, say: “Ask BBC Sounds to play Liza Tarbuck".

Produced by Spiritland Productions for BBC Radio 2.
