Beth brightens up your Saturday with a healthy dose of tunes, laughs, and caffeine! Today she brings you a new Matter of Life and Beth from R&B musician Elmiene, alongside her signature electric jumble of jams: Childish Gambino, Björk, Electronic and more. The listeners hold the aux for this week’s Caffeine Kick, with requests from Emma in Bermondsey, Julie and Andrew in Kent and Ranald in Musselburgh! 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.
