    Fair enough, you're probably right. I just find the fake laughing at each other incredibly annoying and needed somewhere to vent. Sorry.

    At least you said why you didn't like the show. I hate when people knock something for no reason, or can't back it up.

    Fwiw I love the fact that they crack each other up, I believe in that old saying, 'if the performers are having fun, then the audience is having fun', but fair enough if you don't agree.

    I had to stop looking in that thread. They take moaning to a level I've never seen before. Unreadable

    Why do people call it fake laughter. I do be laughing at Dermot just as much if not more than Dave. Maybe he just finds him very funny.

    The fake laughter on the say stuff to music bit aside, the show is pretty decent. They seem to have good craic with people who ring the show as well.

    This is a discussion board, its sort of the done thing around here.

    For the record, I find them both very irritating. I gave them a chance for the first few weeks and have dipped in and out since in the hope I'd start liking them. No.

    I think TodayFM will have to rethink this one in about 18 months time. Credit to the pair of them for getting this far but they got to number 1 at breakfast in Dublin by default after the demise of Colm & Jimjim, when they moved to the later evening slot the show bombed in the JNLR results catching a mere 30 odd thousand listeners, way off the 80/90,000 the other music stations had at the same time.

    Daves laughing is so stupid. He's really not funny at all. Dermot is actually funny. But Dave is ****e.

    And then they try to give him a part of the show "Daves World" which is once again terrible. Say stuff is good, minus the laughter of Dave.

    Tbf, there wouldn't be a show without Dave, he's the one that pushes all the buttons, know how to keep the shows timing, keeps the segments moving along and hitting all the breaks, he chooses the playlist afaik, etc. He's a songwriter too, so I'd say he's primarily responsible for the jingles aswell.

    The two boys are similar enough that they can work well together but different enough that the humour in the show isn't too samey imo.

    Yes there would. Doesn't take a genius to have someone press buttons.

    And Dermot does say stuff, so he'd well be able make a funny jingle given a tune.

    He's very anal but I think it's gas. The two of them are very different which gives them plenty of material

    USA Soccer Guy is a total rip off of Chug Stenson, except not as funny. Chug was around for a long time before that twitter account.
