I'm going to bloody sleep in.
If it's the last thing I do, I'm going to sleep in.
And I just couldn't.
I just couldn't sleep in and I still can't sleep in.
And I have to admit that 23 years of getting up at stupid o'clock changed my DNA.
I used to be a night owl.
Before I was in radio, I was a copywriter, an ad writer.
And I had a little side hustle business and I wouldn't start work.
I would, you know, in my little rented flat, you know, put my cafeteria, I think they called you the Italian screw on coffee, percolator things that you always forget about.
And then you're like, what does that smell like?
Shit, it's on fire.
I wouldn't put that on until 10 p.m.
And that was, you know, my life.
I was a night owl from a baby.
Like mum was like, you never slept.
God damn you.
And nothing changed.
And then breakfast radio has changed my DNA.
And now I am an insufferable early bird.
What time do you get up on an average day?
