    Well considering Foley borrowed most of his idea's from BBC Radio 1 and Chris Moyles in particular and re-worked them I highly doubt it will make a difference.

    It was a joke!!

    Someone text in " Since Ann is back are ye gonna do the gauntlet again?" :D

    The way they sprung Ann onto the air today was really well done, she just came out of nowhere!

    They were talking about the sick voices people do to get out of work - men are rubbish at it, wemon are great at it ...

    KC -"Hey Ann Gleeson,what's your sick voice like ??
    ANN - " Sorry I can't come in for the year, I've the Cancer " :p

    It was an absolutely brilliant bit of radio hearing her tell the entire story, you could not help but shed a tear when she said "I'm in remission, it's all gone"
    She's an amazing person.

    There is such a 'family' buzz from TodayFM as a radio station, what they have is so unique.

    I know, it's great to hear. I also loved the story Anton Savage told while filling in for Ray yesterday. He mentioned on-air something about needing or wanting chewing gum and a few minutes later KC was back from the shop with a pack of gum, opened the studio door and lobbed it at him. Anton was so taken by surprise he tried to catch it with a cup of coffee already in his hands and the coffee went all over himself. (It was funnier the way he told it! :o ) But it did make me think about how they must all get on really well, it's no wonder Foley found it such a wrench to leave.

    Ann is just great isn't she? She instantly added something to the show when she popped in the other day. And she sounded so at ease and comfortable despite having never been on the show with that line-up of presenters before.. true sign of an awesome radio personality.

    The show is definitely growing on me... the music is CLASS and I just think KC is so lovely :) Great to have Adele back too! I am finding however... that I don't really find Lenny funny... I feel bad saying this, because I really don't want to be negative about KC's show and I'm sure Lenny is lovely too... but I dunno, is it just me expecting a JP type character and not getting one, or what?

    KC falling into the Tony Fenton trap of saying 'Joss Whedon' is on the show later when it's actually just a pre-record with the new movie guy. Would actually have loved to hear him in studio with the lads. Ah well. :(

    Just on Tuesdays I think. The bit is called 'Ireland's Eoghan' and he reads stupid/funny/interesting stories from local papers all around the country, not that funny imo.

    The option was 'no Joss Whedon'

    or

    Send the movie guy to interview him and have Joss Whedon on show


    He's one of the biggest names in Hollywood, when you get interview opportunities with people like this you take it. He was not able to hang around in Dublin for 4 extra days to do a live lunch time radio show today, unfortunately :P

    Don't get me wrong, pre-record Joss Whedon is 100 times better than no Joss Whedon, it's just the way KC (you?) said he was on the show later that got my hopes up! I think KC and Lenny would have got some great craic out of him.

    anyone else hear that girl win €10,000 i WAS happy for her.
    at the end you could hear another person laugh clearly, when someone says 'oh dear' and takes few seconds and gets it right... alarm bells.
    then just at the end she said that people from her office at work most of been listen cause they were skype'ing her, in other words she was sitting at the computer

    Hopefully it'll be good radio! They've taken on a huge challenge for their first OB in the new slot!

    I asked on twitter was it live " live" and he replied saying its 100% live. I think that there may be a small delay in case someone gets scared ****less.

    15 mins is hardly enough time too make a decision on a show now really...what did you hear in 15 mins?2links and 2 songs?
    Also KC is the resident dj every sat night in the new club voodoo rooms in Cork

    Why is his Cork gig anything to do with the seance? I'm not having a pop at him. And the bit on the playback I heard wasn't all songs or ads. It was just weak. Sorry. He's not a bad presenter. But it ain't no Foley show. Us down the sticks have the nationals or our local radio to listen to. National just got kinda boring at lunchtime.
