It's the whole show in one go! Today The Country is brought to you by that cheerful lot Radiohead.

Why?

October 7th is miserabilist singer Thom Yorke's birthday and Jamie is away so Dom can get some quality Radiohead in without being told off.

Happy Birthday Thom! Cheer up mate...

On with the show - First up we'll have some weather with Met Service Weather Forecaster Lisa Murray. What's happening for the weekend Lisa?

Do you want to know what's happening in the world of wool? Well you're in luck because we have the wool report with Jim Paterson.

Barry Soper chats to Dom next about the week in politics. Soper discusses Helen Clark, Marama Davidson and the US presidential election.

Then Dom finishes off the show with the TAB sports bet of the week on his own as he reckons Nisbo's sleeping off a big steak dinner over in South Africa...

So that's The Country done and dusted for another week on a Radiohead Friday.

All together now...I'm a creep, I'm a weirdoooooo, What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here...
