    Seems to be doing specific links for 98fm unless it's all pre-recorded show and every syndicated station just mixes the raw show down with their own specific idents

    Sounds like a very messy podcast to me :/

    Yeah I agree. Doesn't seem to fit with what was before and afterwards

    Listened to the first few minutes earlier and it wasn't terrible, he actually mentions the station directly, not really sure why hes doing it. The problem is that it just doesn't fit, the music is the same but why not have a normal jock, in dublin doing that? If it gets the middle aged women listening then thats good but then Ray Foley and Dermot & Dave don't really seem to fit that demographic...

    no mention of text / facebook / other station plugs/ twitter etc..

    This is what lots of stations do in the uk to save themselves money. I think dave smith will need to rethink this idea because i cant see it work in Dublin. Its the most lazy form of radio possible and is the last thing a station should do if they are trying to stop the rot. Stations win listeners because of some kind of emotional connection they make with a listener, if that station decides to go the generic non-specific syndicated route then the listener has little opportunity to connect with it, it goes against absolutely everything a local radio station is meant to do.

    Agree with earlier comments. There's so much editing to cut in the 98FM mentions and chopping up of the original show that there's no natural flow at all to it. The secret to a pre-recorded show is of course to make it sound live, and this is far from it.

    Having said that, it was listenable. The music was fine, and the Kelly Clarkson interview was fun. Yet there seemed to be nothing special about the show, aside from his access to the stars. How is it so successful in so many markets?

    The music is just added in by the stations themselves. that's how they have it showing up on their website. Whereas the links are down as a voicetrack. All multitracked together so that Ryan always hits the intro on songs bang on

    Basically the show is a poor podcast of his breakfast show on KIIS FM. Just a load of interviews one after another with the songs added in by the local stations.

    Yeah it really does sound like a poorly produced, " jumpy" podcast. I use the word jumpy because it sounds as if the local stations add in their own idents too.
    Sounds like " Maroon 5 on * JUMP* 98 FM *Jump* Dublins best music mix *jump* to something else

    Listened this evening and I would agree with all the points above - there is no natural flow and I can't help thinking that a local voice presenting with the interviews with Ryan added in would work better.

    Pre recorded can work - Tony Blackburns daily show on Nova(1988) is often highlighted as how it should be done but I am also recall Nova carrying Rick Dees daily show and it being pulled after a few weeks.

    I like Rick Dee's show and do think there is a "live" element too it
