    Why so negative though?

    Because he is annoying as hell. Dermot I like, he's funny.

    Like when they do "Say Stuff" and you can hear Dave with his fake laugh in the background. What's that all about?

    Maybe he thinks it's funny

    You know this how? It's the same laugh he has all through the rest of the week. Is his laugh ever genuine?

    Enough is enough. If anyone posts the words "fake" and "laugh" with any proximity to one another in this thread, they will be thread-banned.

    I've only ever heard snippets of the show up until today. But I caught the entire thing (those subbed to the Anton thread will notice a pattern here... :P).

    They're really good. Lots of fun, perfect for lunchtime IMO. I know Ray Foley doesn't particularly like them, but I honestly think the vibe of their shows is very similar. Just light hearted craic.

    I'm also late to the "Say Stuff That Suits the Music" party, but that's f*cking genius. Today's Kerri Katona bit made me LOL.

    Love the show. My wife and kids also love it. So many good features and the lads work really well together. The whole 'Dave is boring and has no friends' is gas. I love his Dave's World section. It's usually interesting and Dermot's able to get a laugh taking the piss. Also, the jingles they do during the show and the ones played advertising the show on other shows are gas. Kids love them

    I like the music they play but switch off when they come back on.

    it's only ok in my opinion. I like the US sports bit but cringe when they do the jingly bits, have yet to hear a funny one

    These guys are funny, the only thing I can listen to on Todayfm, along perhaps with the (always cheerful) lady that's on sometimes.

    The evening goes downhill fast with the other guys whom can't string a sentence together without umms, ahhs and incomplete sentences. 2fm is largely unbearable, with very little tunage, luckily have x20 presets on dab and 100gb of audio :)

    My dislike of these guys increases daily. I do not find them even slightly funny. "Say Stuff That Suits The Music" being the worst.

    I think I have only heard the show once since moving to Today FM but I am a bit surprised with some of the views about them here as I enjoyed them on 98.
    Is there anybody who used to listen to them on 98 and now listens on today fm on this thread? If so has there been a change in style?

    I do exactly the same, I find them painfully annoying. Totally disrupts my radio listening.

    One of the lads is out sick today (I Cant tell the difference between them).

    So the show is now missing the 45 minutes of one of the lads laughing uncontrollably at something the other lad said.

    They are up in the JNLR's so I doubt it. Im not suprised the boggers don't find them funny, all the seem to like is people doing crappy impressions or awful prank calls. Maybe they should start doing that to prove how good they are

    LOL ..love the sarcasm. thats what i hate the most.....their impressions are f***in bruuuuutal.

    Will be interesting to see the Q2 figures coming out. From where they were coming from an increase in 5000 listeners will probably guarantee their sacking
