2. Be Positive!
The aim is to encourage the BBC Radio listeners to check out the show. Focus on how excite you are that Season 2 is showing on the BBC.
3. Be Restrained!
Text or email one song request to one station per day. The BBC is our friend right now and we don't want to turn them against us by being a nuisance. Polite Menace hats firmly on.
