Welcome to Thursday! Jane and Fi are life's dreamers today - Jane has been dreaming of the Wicker Man, while Fi is dreaming of doughnuts and a return to the oaky Chardonnays of the 1980s...

Welcome to Tuesday. The winding Off Air river continues to meander into your ears. Today, Jane and Fi navigate the waters of deceit in politics and reliable parenting, sail past French protests and sex toys, make a brief detour to Westfield Shepherd’s Bush, before arriving at the poignant shores of Greenham Common. Quite the journey. There's no guest today so enjoy the ride!

Fi is back, and right now, where there is Fi, there is her cough. We advise listening at a distance. Jane is still in Liverpool with her family, so Eve sits in. Fi and Eve cover uniforms, road rage, planting a placenta under a pear tree, and a geisha version of Barbara Cartland...

Plus, Robbie Millen, literary editor of The Times and The Sunday Times, bursts into the studio to share his book picks. Robbie recommends 'The End of Everything' by M. John Harrison, 'Dodge City' by Patrick deWitt, and 'Hotel Exile' by Jane Rogoyska.

Fi's got a cough, which she thinks she got from Eve, who thinks she got it from Jane. It's a cough train – the worst kind. Bear with us... In between coughs, Fi and Eve chat Fi's new iron, the joys of book clubs, male aggression in the wild, and the rise of athleisure.

Plus, journalist Matthew Sweet discusses his new book 'The Great Dictator: A Life of Barbara Cartland'.
