Feel a bit silly...
Didn't realise that the actual show is an hour long! Thought the podcasts were the only version.
Doh. Teaches me to read more closely, and scrutinise further. Even better, to actually catch the broadcast live...
There's even references to all the tracks and recordings played on the relevant webpage (attached to post)!
Random bits: The opening of the show is 'Get Your Way' - Jamie Cullum (Catching Tales)
Had to look that one up from my iTunes Library.
Recording the show from Sydney Australia (caught in the Ash Cloud problem over British airspace)!
Brief notes:

'Ishmael' a favourite track of Jamie's.
