    With David Tighe CEO moving on it seems a revamp is happening.
    http://www.live95fm.ie/on-air/schedule.aspx

    Breakfast no Change
    An Extra hour of Limerick Today 9 to 12
    Extra Copues 12 - 4
    Gary Connor on Drive in for JP 4 - 7
    Jp on 7 til Midnight. 5 hours


    Club Classics sounds like it may be a good alternative to what's out there.

    You mean they'll play more than a dozen songs throughout the day?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,363 ✭✭✭✭bazz26


    Looks like they got some new free cds from the News of the World.

    I really dont like Mark and Caitriona on the breakfast show, give me Colm and Jim Jim on 2fm any day!!

    I can't change channels fast enough any time I come across that corny ball of s***e station. An embarrassment to Limerick is all it is.

    This is where I lost interest.

    Absolute waste of radio space.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 858 ✭✭✭goingpostal


    Where has Gerry Hannon gone? I used to love his show at night, with all the ould ones ringing in giving out and singing songs. That was real local radio.

    I would like to point out I in no way condone the disgrace to Limerick that is the Live 95fm breakfast show. I was merely trying to get a cheap laugh. I apologise.


    Also Colm and Jim Jim are no better. Absolute muck.

    They play that Sh*t 90's Sonique song at least twice a day??What is with that?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,477 ✭✭✭grenache


    I was hoping a few of the old croons like Copues and Dillon had gone but no luck. I stopped listening years ago. If i wanted to listen to the same 40 songs on repeat every day i'd buy myself a Now album. As for those idiots on the breakfast show, dont even get me started.

    Dont forget Texas,the Lighthouse Family,D:Ream,Edwyn Collins and any other artist that hasnt had a top ten hit in the last ten odd years. Having to listen to that station piped in where I worked was soul destroying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭bantee


    Greenday on now at work. Live95 is played every day here and its the same cd every day! David Gray up soon. Absolutely soul-destroying.

    I'm not saying Colm and Jim Jim are the height of sophistication but they're better than Mark and Caitriona!

    Thats like saying a punch in the face is better than a kick in the gillygoolies!

    4 hours of Declan Copious and 5 hours of JP?? *shudders at the thought*

    CORRECTION : Him ringing them - he got caught a beaut one night when one "caller" :rolleyes: signed off with "ok Gerry, thanks for the call" :D:D

    And PLEASE tell me you're talking the piss by suggesting that that was real local radio......even Live 95's breakfast show beats that (not by much, mind, but it does).

    Of course, it's easy to slag off the breakfast show, but comparing that to 2fm's offering it holds up well; rocks and hard places and all that....

    Even with Today FM's breakfast show going stale and seemingly going downhill in terms of actual bang-on comedy and content, it's still miles ahead of anything else on offer.

    I thought Gerry was a great laugh. Some of the ones he had on were characters. He used to read out my demented texts and all. Him and Tim Long slagging off Willie O'Dea was hilarious. The man is a legend. I would rather have my testicles attached to a two by four with a rusty nail than listen to ANY breakfast show in the morning, apart from the Lyric Breakfast on Lyric FM, although at the moment Liz Nolan is presenting that show, and her accent is like daggers through my skull at that tender part of the day for me.

    The breakfast show is the most annoying show on the schedule. Mark is a fool, although I wouldnt kick Caitriona out of the bed for eating crisps ha ha.

    Its a bit of shambles of a radio station, used to be much better in the past when Matt Dempsey was there. Did work experience there and he was well sound!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 57 ✭✭MrFireBox


    I'd say they play Travis "Why does it always rain on me" about four times a day, talk about depressing.
    And that stupid voice thing they have on the breakfast show, pure cringe.....

    Unless I go deaf, I think I might have to ask Caitriona to leave my bed, her good looks not being sufficient to outweigh her mindbogglingly inane twitterings.

    I think I'll mention Spin South West, just for the laugh... :D


    P.S. I detest that ****ing Live95fm as well!!! :mad:

    I installed a new CD player in the car yesterday just so I could completely avoid both of those stations :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,916 ✭✭✭RonMexico


    You know in Father Ted when they ring Larry Duff and he always has some horrible accident trying to answer the phone?








    I wish that would happen to Mark and Catriona and Colm and Jim Jim. Calling yourself Jim Jim you deserve a life of misfortune.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    Dunno why anyone listens to the radio tbh, my cars stereo isnt even tuned in, I have an mp3 player, problem solved, I listen to what I want and dont have to put up with DJ's inane chatter

    Agreed. Anybody with a CD player/I-Pod connectivity in the car shouldn't waste any time with the radio, except for the traffic reports of course! :D Oh and 2fm on Saturday evenings :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    Oh jesus Spin is just as bad as 95fm - both deserved to be shut down so we can listen to proper radio stations like today fm
