Beth brightens up your Saturday with a healthy dose of tunes, laughs and caffeine! Playing classics from New Order and The Selecter alongside newer finds from The Crying Nudes and Ravyn Lenae, Beth’s eclectic selections will set your weekend in motion. This week’s Matter of Life and Beth comes from one of her favourite bands, the Scottish outfit The Yummy Fur, who are releasing their first new music in 25 years. This week, Beth takes requests from newlyweds Marnie and Amy, as well as Andrew in Lincoln. If you have any requests for the Caffeine Kick, or you’d like to get in touch with the show, get in touch at bethditto@bbc.co.uk.
