“This is a light relief. James is a champion for us and although the world is hard, having a sense of humour helps us get through. James’ mystery hour helps. I’m currently finishing off Queen Secret, A Kind Of Magic ebook as a publisher, so this is a good distraction while I am editing. Love...”Read full review »

“Became a fan years ago and listen weekly-a lot of people who listen to this just found it via podcasts and outraged with presenter but he’s like this daily 10-1pm on LBC and those regular listers see this as light relief from James normal show. He’s uniquely arrogant and articulate at the same...”Read full review »

“I really enjoy learning on Mystery Hour so somehow put up with James but my God is he hard to listen to. So, so patronising and narcissistic. I don’t know how he’s still on air. I actually believe he needs help for his arrogance”

“If you have a question that nobody you know can answer just ring in! Alternatively if you can give an answer you will be the proud recipient of a round of applause or, jb extreme and rare circumstances, a Ray Liotta ❤️”

“So good to be able to listen back but I now have a regular work meeting which means I miss this and I’d love to listen within a day of it going out. Sometimes it’s there and sometimes we go ages without an episode! It’s worth paying that person who puts them together to do this!!”

“The podcast is great, especially as James O’Brien is normally a negative vibe merchant that I cannot listen to.
If the conversation doesn’t go his way he changes the question or cuts callers off. At least this podcast is pleasurable to listen to.”

“Excellent podcast from the voice of reason and sanity James O’Brien. The beauty of ‘Mystery Hour’ is that it is a welcome break from the often annoying and nonsensical world of political current affairs. There are always laughs, always interesting conversations and always something new to learn....”Read full review »
