    Andrew filled in a lot on the breakfast show when Lorraine was doing it,and seems at ease taking it over.He has lots of experience,working with a lot of stations in the country,and has worked with Tipp Fm before,so would have a good idea of the audience he is engaging with....

    The latest JNLR – Ipsos – MRBI survey shows Tipp FM has increased its listenership stronghold across the Premier County.
    Over 64,000 people are tuning in each week with listeners also choosing to listen for longer.
    Tipp Today – which airs weekdays from 9am – remains the number one choice for adults in Tipperary with over 17,000 tuning in each day.

    "increased" is an unusual word to use in a press release when their listenership, according to the JNLR survey, has gone down.

    Misleading, one could even say.

    Weekday "listened to yesterday" figure is at 33% (down 1% on the Jan - Dec 2017 figure)

    "Market Share" (How long people listen to a particular station) figure is also down by .5% to 36.7%

    Still good enough figures compared to other local radios, especially the market share. Just not increasing, as was claimed.

    The "Biddy Early" brains trust in Ennis may have to think it out again.

    Do you agree that the guy on it now is full of himself ?

    I think you need to have a bit of an ego to have a career in radio. Its doesn't normally attract shrinking violets

    People who are dreamers often refer to the doers as full of themselves. It's an inferiority thing. God forbid somebody should have a bit of confidence.

    No it is not,it is the people who are full of themselves who have the inferiority. Real confidence is not loud.

    Funny enough we discussed this in the pub Saturday night . I think it’s widly accepted that some people like comics and people in the public eye etc suffer from depression. I know I mentioned originally that the guy in question seemed over confident but who knows what anyone’s story is really .

    How did you get from.. full of himself,confident,a bit of a smart arse..to the conclusion ye came to in the pub on Saturday night...I have to say that post is one of the most ridiculous I have seen in a while..I really hope the guy himself doesnt read the post..To even suggest what you have,not knowing the person,is unfair to say the least.

    It is, you have to be confident if you're gonna sit in a radio studio for however long and essentially talk to yourself.

    Ah here . I wasn’t talking about anyone but just generalizing . If anything I was defending him by saying that sometimes the most confident people are not really that way in real life . It’s all just show !

    The one thing that annoys me is the talking up to the vocal on most,if not all songs..or playing some jingle over it...I want to hear the song,not how good his timing is..Apart from that,he sounds ok.....

    And all that timing up to the singing in the songs has to be recorded . He’d be better off doing it live even if it did mean that he wasn’t able to get the timing right to the lyrics .

    Just an opinion

    You record the taking and if it’s lets say 20 seconds and the music part of the song is 20 seconds before the singing starts you just play the talking over the music .
