Radio Turn Offs

[Eeyore]

Any TuneIn fans here ?

I only listen to mainstream radio when it's sport commentary. Some excellent local broadcasters out there from folk who do it for enjoyment.

Radio 4 comedy shows that insist on having someone with a guitar singing their own satirical songs for a bit. Always woeful.

This. A million times this. I hate, loathe, despise musical comedy. And the worst level of hell is reserved for comedy with acoustic guitar.

Nick Grimshaw




I guess he does have to act like a moron for his moronic core audience of 10 year-olds, but COME ON, just look at that face.

I used to listen to his reggae show on BBC London. Great show as he played lots of old UK lovers rock, but not after first reminding us, AGAIN, that he's married to Carol Thompson

A bit annoying presentation style but the music he played always made up for it for me.

Never listen to commercial stations. Adverts on telly are gash enough. Adverts on Radio are so amateurish they could be used as mitigating circumstances for acts of desperate violence. Only exception was in the early days of Talk Radio when David Starkey's lunchtime phone in show was hilarious as he forensically picked apart the arguments of people that phoned in to give their opinion.

Like Radio 2 but how Steve Wright has got away with the same endless drivel for so long is remarkable.

I quite often listen to Absolute Radio. I always turn it off when a Kings of Leon song comes on.

And now over to Mitch Ben ( or whatever his bloody name is)....

...And off goes my radio, quicker than I can turn the Archers theme tune off...and that's quick!

Kermode and Mayo's Film Re3vue - Radio 5, all the way through Friday afternoon for what seems like hours and hours, and worse sill, repeated on Sundays (two occasions during the week when I'm most likely to be driving up or down the M5 - and then I have to put up with this sh|t.......................).

Two boring blokes with boring voices talking about boring films that I haven't seen - and don't want to! Talk about 'Pseud's Corner' - yawn, yawn, yawn, bloody yawn

Jeremy Vine.
what a T@sser

Love R6 but Mary-Anne Hobbs and Cerys Matthews and Craig Charles and Sean Keaveny do my nut.

Love Cerys Matthews' voice. I could listen to her all day. I enjoy her musical tastes too on the whole.

Mary-Anne Hobbs. Unlistenable for me. Her voice really irritates me.

Max Reinhardt - by far the most annoying of the roster of presenters for the best radio show ever...Late Junction. He's never enough to force me turn off though.

WFMU is my favourite internet station. Jeff Sarge has a cracking reggae show on there.

He is indeed along with that buffoon Mike Parry what a complete cockwomble retard.

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Sarah Cox
Steve Wright
Paul Miller
Liza Tarbuck
June Sarpong although she is mostly TV

 

[BN9 BHA]

Adrian Durham and Darren Gough on Talksport.
Chris Evans.
Jeremy Vine show, I don't actually mind him, it's just some of the bellends that he interviews I can't stand. Also they have some very depressing topics.
Heart FM, hate it. I work in occupied properties and sometimes customers listen to this rubbish.

Another vote for how good radio 6 is, I really need to get a digital radio fitted into my van.

I met him once and he is pretty decent. Huge British Sea Power fan.

 

[Peter Grummit]

I listen to radio all the time. 6Music, 5live/sports extra, Ken Bruce, R4, occasionally Talksport.

The person I really really can't stand is Fearn Cotton. Vacuous bint.

And The Smiths. And I can't help but be impressed that he's Tim Vine's brother.

He also likes Elvis Costello and The Jam, I think he should knock the phone in on the head and just play music.

Not radio but is Albion-related...The 2 blokes who do the commentary on the Brighton games for Latest TV are just terrible. I was told that one of them was Bob Booker and I'm sure he's got a lot of love for the club and his reading of a game is excellent but even with that I can't listen to him - unlike Warren Aspinall, who I think is brilliant.
