A live radio debate about public nudity turned into an unexpected comedy show when a caller’s attempt to include his “wife” in the conversation raised more questions than answers.

What started as a discussion about nudist beaches quickly became a puzzling—and hilarious—exchange that left listeners in stitches.

The Curious Case of Clive and Cynthia

During a Sunday broadcast on LBC, presenter Henry Riley was leading a debate on nudist beaches in the UK and Europe when a caller named Clive joined the conversation.

Clive claimed he had been frequenting Studland Bay in Dorset for over 20 years with his wife, Cynthia.

However, things took a bizarre turn when Riley questioned whether Cynthia was real at all.

A Voice That Raised Eyebrows

Clive, eager to prove his wife’s existence, suddenly introduced Cynthia—only for listeners to hear a suspiciously high-pitched voice on the other end of the line.

“Hi, I’m Cynthia, his wife. I’ve been going for 20 years now,” the voice chirped.

Skeptical, Riley immediately asked to speak directly with Cynthia, only for Clive to stall, citing poor phone reception.

Instead of handing over the phone, he insisted on relaying Cynthia’s answers himself, further fueling doubts.

“Can You Both Speak at the Same Time?”

As the call continued, Riley grew increasingly suspicious.

He directly asked Clive if he was the one doing Cynthia’s voice, even challenging both to speak at the same time.

Clive, sticking to his story, claimed the signal was weak and that Cynthia was “nervous.”

When pressed, he suddenly switched back to Cynthia’s voice—but this time, it sounded noticeably different.

“Yes, it was really really nice,” Cynthia blurted out quickly, prompting Riley to call out the drastic shift in tone.

Listeners Can’t Stop Laughing

The bizarre exchange didn’t go unnoticed.

After a clip of the call was posted on social media, it quickly gained traction, with thousands of views and countless comments.

Many were convinced Clive was playing both roles, with one user writing, “The last Cynthia killed me!” while another called it “comedy gold.”

Not the First Time LBC Has Gone Viral

This isn’t the first time an LBC caller has sparked widespread reactions.

In January, presenter Iain Dale made headlines after clashing with a guest over controversial comments about diversity in aviation.

The heated debate ended with Dale cutting the caller off mid-sentence, calling him a “numbskull” for making baseless claims about hiring practices.

A Moment of Unintentional Radio Gold

While Clive’s call may not have been as contentious, it certainly delivered one of the most unintentionally funny moments on live radio.

Whether Cynthia was real or just a figment of Clive’s imagination, one thing is certain—the clip has cemented itself as one of LBC’s most entertaining moments to date.
