Connor Phillips sits in. Are you ready for the weekend?

Connor Phillips is live through the night live from the Salford Riviera with Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There, Midnight Caller and a huge Ravio 2 to end the week.

Connor Phillips is live through the night from the Salford Riviera with Midnight Mastermind, Wish You Were There, Midnight Caller and a huge Ravio 2 to end the week.

Midnight Mastermind is the quiz where you ask the questions and test OJ on your own specialist subject. He never knows the subject beforehand and has just one song to revise before facing the questions.

Wish You Were There is your chance to soundtrack a story or situation that OJ will tell you all about. He wants your suggestions for the perfect song to capture that moment.

Midnight Caller is where OJ’s sent a basic mobile phone out to New Zealand, and calls it at 2.15am exactly. But who will answer it next? Will it get answered? Listen to find out!

To get involved with the show, e-mail OJ@bbc.co.uk

To listen on most smart speakers, just say "Ask BBC Sounds to play OJ Borg."

Produced in Salford by Audio Always for BBC Radio 2
