    BBC Radio 6 is my station of choice.
    I think they play a really good selection of music and have dj's who are passionate about the music they play.

    Don't really listen to much radio,. mostly music/talk podcasts, without ads.

    1st: Spotify
    2nd: Pandora
    then a few podcasts from home,

    2nd Captains - Irish times
    Off the Ball
    Newstalk podcasts - Moncreiff & the History show.

    Maybe some SportTalk or BBC 5 Live in the mornings on the TuneIn Radio App.

    Don't really like radio a lot tbh, too many ads and being interrupted by news updates/traffic/weather etc.

    I'm very similar. I listen to those four as well as the occasional program on BBC Radio 4 or Today FM.

    None via FM mind, all internet radio these days.

    Only really listen to radio in work, which usually switches between Radio Nova and Today Fm. Nova would be my preference (though it can get very repetitive). Today fm is tolerable.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    BBC R4 for talk, BBC R6 for music. A bit of Phantom or Newstalk if I must.

    Irish radio, especially talk radio, is pretty poor I'm sorry to say.

    If I could create a fantasy music station it would be a bit of XFM from London in the 90s, before it became landfill indie on rotation, and every John Peel show ever.

    I tend to listen to 98FM for the sake of it, just for the quirky talks, in the morning and late afternoon while I'm driving. :pac:

    And on a side note - what ever happened to that Jazz station in Dublin ? I can't seem to find it no more.

    What the hell does listening to the radio got to do with having a life or money? A lot of people listen to it while driving or working...

    I like Moncrieff, he's a funny fcuker with some strange guests, interesting subject matter and the texts the show gets are well random.

    Lyric FM all the way! Even have it on in work! It keeps me mellow :o. Used to listen to BBC Radio 4 in my car all the time but since I got my new car a few years ago it won't pick it up :(. I do get the poscasts though (love the news quiz show with Sandi Toksvig).

    Sunday Night, 10PM Nova - Off the Record with Pat James.

    Genuinely, do yourselves a favour if you like rock music from 60's to the present day.

    No Aerosmith, Foreigner , Kiss or any of that ****e..........just proper music with an extremely knowledgable presenter who started out on radio in the late '70s.

    I like moncrieff but he can be a bit of a condescending sap at times, overall he's a fantastic radio show host, his accent is a bit annoying at times though.

    I like Lyric FM too, except when they play Opera, which I cannot abide. :o

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    I predominantly listen to BBC Radio 4 just because it's so bloody fantastic!

    If I'm listening to Irish radio then it's Morning Ireland (although I normally listen to Today on BBC4), or Moncrieff on Newstalk. I really like his show.

    If I want music I'll listen to either All80s (Irish station!) on the TuneIn radio App or Zack FM (A station for US forces personnel based in Suffolk, England) on TuneIn.

    After lunch

    Radcliffe and Maconie (BBC 6Music) or Nic Harcourt (KCSN).
    Listened to Nic Harcourt for ages but really like Radcliffe and Maconie so the last few months its been them

    and from 4/4.30 onwards
    Steve Lamacq (BBC 6Music) or Matt Cooper if there is anything interesting in the news that day.
