Professor Sir Dr Matthew Burnham Esquire of this parish will be back as curator of questions next week.

Is that right, Simon?

Yeah, yeah.

But I think he's back and I'm hoping on his first return, he will be formally announcing that he has the badges in his hand.

And you know that the other one, the reason this is happening is to date back to this.

To be fair, the first idea for having a name for our callers and our contributors was Podcast Producer Simons.

And he suggested MPC, Martin's, what was it?

Martin's Podcast Contributor.

which makes sense and is also obviously the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of England.

So it had a good double meaning.

Now, then we had a bit of internecine producer warfare going on between podcast producer Simon and podcast producer Matt.

And obviously, Simon is generally the king of the Big Issues podcast, whereas Matt is the king of the Question Time podcast.

And Matt really didn't want Simon's suggestion to win.

I'm sure they're very fond of each other, really.

But when it comes to the canon of the podcast, they are fierce rivals.

And so, yeah, you will be very happy you got a vote in there, aren't you, Matt?

I've just called you Matt.

Aren't you, Simon?

You are.

You can officially, in anything that's referring within the canon of this podcast, call yourself an ESQ and put those letters after your name.
