\x27Full of glorious examples of caller wisdom [with] laugh\-out\-loud anecdotes\x27 Allison Pearson, Sunday Telegraph<\/i><\/b>
<\/i><\/b>
Jeremy Vine has been presenting his BBC Radio 2 show since 2003 \- it now attracts more than seven million listeners. He calculates he has taken more than 25,000 calls from his listeners on issues big and small: life, love, lollipop ladies and poisonous plants.<\/p>
But what have the callers told him? If you listen to Radio 4, Brexit was a shock. If you are on Radio 2 it would not have surprised you at all. Where Jeremy\x27s callers once expressed a kind of resignation (\x27But what can you do?\x27) or a gloomy rejoinder (\x27You have to laugh\x27), now they give him their views expecting to be heeded.<\/p>
Listener wisdom is far more valuable than most of what we hear from appointed spokespeople. What was the response when Jeremy asked: \x27Have you ever been pecked in the eye by a gannet?\x27 Which subjects are most likely to start pitched warfare between different sections of the audience? (Answer: old people using buses, old people NOT using buses, cellophane, or Tony Blair saying anything.)<\/p>
In a book punctuated by his own vivid stories and laugh\-out\-loud moments, Jeremy Vine explains what it\x27s like to hit a button and hear \- totally unvarnished and unspun \- the voice of the so\-called \x27ordinary\x27 person. And why we should take notice.<\/p>
