Tracy Clifford 2fm

    Dermot & Dave were off today so flicked over to this show to give the new talent a shot. I must say it was a farce, from songs playing over each other too introducing the wrong tracks it sounded like college radio...done poorly. EVERY single link we were reminded about how much fun they were having in studio with stories of getting people's names wrong and the text line EVERY link. Gave it a go into the second hour but had to switch off. if that's the "best" young talent out there in radio land then I fear 2fm will be even worse now then with the old gard. I'm trying too find something positive to say about it but I can't! Even the segments like talking into a pillow and playing the audible mumbles on air was cringeworthy!

    Really? I'm very surprised. I listened to Tracy on Spin for years and she made me laugh every single day. She was typically on the ball and well able to dj. Maybe something happened and she was having an off day. We all have them? Give her another chance!
    I was a little teary eyed when her and ryan finished in spin! How sad am I 😂

    Agree here,used to love Rick o Shea in the afternoon,great presenter-but Tracy Clifford is just boring,forced laughter, silly topics,seems very false, very bad choice by RTE for afternoon radio- BRING BACK RICK

    have heard her a few times recently, GOD she's poor.
    "we'll play some tuneage next" and the quiz that's the "sexiest" quiz on radio where she talks into a pillow.
    the music is just charty crap too

    she asks for people to text their age when entering comps, I text asking why do you want peoples ages? they didn't bother their asses answering though.

    Have listened in again recently and the only conclusion I can draw is been a pretty blonde in RTE is enough "talent" horrible horrible show with poor links and worse segments, trying too be original is one thing, but the pillow mumbling part is soooo bad, that's the reason no one else does it!

    I actually googled her last week to see if she was really good looking, for a possible explanation for how she got the job.
    Maybe they're trying to copy Today FM.

    Maybe I'm getting old, but radio presenters seem a lot more annoying these days.
