    I have complete indifference towards them all to be honest. 98fm has gone very stale.

    It's become my main station to listen to, now that TXFM is sadly no more.

    Steven Cooper humming along to his throwback anthems.

    Does he still refer to himself as "Cooper" on air? I thought that was especially cringe-tastic when he was on iRadio.

    The sound of silence

    Yep, hence why it is "Cooper & Luke" not "Steven & Luke"

    Can't listen to Cooper and Luke, it's just sounds forced a lot of the time. And Luke can't say a full sentence without trying to put on a different voice/act stupid. Just speak normal ffs. It's literally all the time even when doing the traffic and things. When he does the show himself he doesn't do it, only when he's Cooper's puppet. Can't be the only one that noticed this.

    Adrian and Jeremy are ok in small doses. You can here them deliberately trying to rise the less educated listeners by saying sweeping statements but when you ignore that can get the odd interesting debate.

    Barry Dunne I haven't heard in years but I liked it when I did. No bull**** radio for the most part. Just playing the hits.

    Used to like Dara and his show until I started listening to it more often on the way home from work. It could be the same show everyday. It's as if he got a script for the first show and has stuck to that since. I mean why explain "when I was 17" EVERYDAY for the last 2 years.

    The fix, I don't listen to it all that often but what I have heard it sounds fine. Not too much Brian and just playing music.

    Muireann O'Connell's last show was on Saturday the 2nd September. Brendan Roache is swapping with Denis Vavasour, Ciaran O'Connor is moving into Muireann's slot, and Shane Staunton (Bank Holiday cover presenter) is moving into CO'C's slot. The station has lost its only female presenter and arguably its best-known.
