Time to put gift grub out of its misery?

It gave up being funny 10 years ago. Not even the semblance of a joke is missing from the slot. It's just whatever song comes into Mario's head and whatever crap story is on the front page of the star. He did well to get nearly 20 years out of it but it's time it went bye bye. There's only so many times boom boom can be…

It was humorous over 10 years ago. Now it's cringeworthy and unfunny. No comedy act should go on this long anyway without being refreshed, it's just going to get stale.

I stopped listening to Today FM completely during the last election, I couldn't take anymore of his Joan Burton (i.e., repeatedly shouting "Can I just say" in a nasally voice).

Gift Grub this morning, anyone hear it. What does Mario be listening to? His impression of Matt Cooper sounded nothing like him. He did impressions of two Last word regulars, and I wouldnt have been able to tell who they were if they hadnt announced who he was doing! Also his trump impression sounds very like his louis walsh - you'd nearly think they were the same person.
