    Love it. An Taobh Tuaitheal is one of my favourites, came across some amazing music I would never have heard had it not been for this programme. Minimum of chat-its all about the music.
    Also its nice to hear Irish as it spoken in the Gaelteacht.

    I dip into it the odd time when driving (when not listening to i105-107 lol) . Some good chill out tunes at times.

    I'd listen to it more if it wasn't so focused on Gaeltacht matters. I know that that's in it's name, Raidió na Gaeltachta, ya. I'd love to listen to more Gaeilge on the radio, but RnaG can be just so bloody boring.

    I listen to it all the time to train my ear for different dialects. I picked up my Irish with non-gaeltacht speakers, so when someone with a very strong blás is with us, I'm not immediately prepared for it. Especially the Ulster dialect which I'm still training my ear to.

    I dip in and out of many stations depending what I feel like. RnaG is one them. I don’t just listen to one all the time.

    I dip in at times. My Irish is pretty bad but they play some great trad. I always think of RnaG as local radio for the Gaeltachts. It doesn’t cater to the wider country. It’s the same with Nuacht on RTE One and it’s all the better for it. Based in a rural area in Clare I find that some of what is covered on Nuacht can be much more relevant to my part of the world than tge main evenjng news. If I had better Irish I’d probably say the same about RnaG too.
