    Anyone hear the tribute to Larry Gogan on the Miriam O Callaghan show this morning ? I thought it was cringe.

    Larry sounds VERY awkward when he doesn't have a script, it even took him a few moments to think of the name of the radio station he works for. (2fm)

    It's called being outside your comfort zone, he's not used to being interviewed.

    I checked on Wiki before I posted as I also thought he was in his late 70's,so it could be wrong,either way Larry has had an amazingly long career.

    it was a cringe fest , he clearly wasn’t enjoying it , he should have said no , but he’s probably trying to protect his last few slots , he should retire with dignity rather than fade away in any old slot that’s going .

    Both Larry and Precious O' Callaghan are past their sell-by dates for me.
