Today FM Megathread Mod warning post #1 / #1401

The Parish priest

The Today fm ceo has announced major changes are coming in 17...Any predictions ? My guess cormac and daniella for breakfast, Chris and Ciara for mid morning and Ian Dempsey goes to drive time

Mod:
Yes there has been made some accusations against a presenter and no you can't discuss them because everything you post about the subject can, and will, be held against boards (and yourself if they decide to sue you) as libel until proven in court basically. Sucks for us but such are the laws of Ireland and unlike major news papers boards do not have an standing army of attorneys to deal with such legal cases. Hence a whole lot of deleted posts and bringing up the subject until further notice will lead to cards and bans.

Anyone know what this mornings Kickstart song was?

I caught Muireanns show on saturday night, it was quite good and enjoyable to listen to, i caught will leahy on 2fm last night, great show, hes a great presenter.

I glanced through an article on Porter in the Indo on Saturday, it said that 2fm couldnt afford Porter????? wtf, how much are todayfm paying this guy? he pretty much admitted in the article it was only a stepping stone for him to bigger things....so, why the eff are todayfm shelling out big bucks to a guy who is only using them to get something better whilst at the same time alienating their listenership?
The article stated that todayfm have leaked thousands of listeners...looks like todayfm is a ship taking on water...

The Website has been changed now - with the all new logo.

Ugh. Just ugh.

Can anyone explain the point of having the R in Dermot and Dave reversed?

It shows they're cool, happenin', and down with the kidz, I suppose.

Listened to today fm all day for years...But no longer. Amazing how poor mid morning radio is across all the stations, you'd think one of these radio genius' would see there's a gap in the schedule for intelligent chat mixed with decent music. I've tried 2fm but can't seem to stand to listen for the full week. I used to think having a radio on in work was a bonus. Think it's making my day a lot longer now!!!

Looks liked they dropped the "100-102" from the logo

Did joe.ie buy the station?

Its gone to the absolute dogs.

I listened to Ed's Songs of Praise last night - i wish his show could be on Today fm 24/7!

Damn, I was just thinking that.

I had BBC r6 lined up via Bluetooth in the car when I started listening to him. 3/4 hr later, I found myself at home and hadn't moved from today fm at any point.

Ed is doing himself no favours on D'Arcys show, he comes across as just as much of a tool and as if he actually enjoys being a tool.
He also took D'Arcys part on Twitter when I was basically telling him that his Grand National quiz was a complete Rip off of KC's instagrand.

I can safely say I haven't listened to more than 5 mins of Darcy's show.

5 mins was all I required.

Quite a damning testament, especially when you consider that I gave Al porter nearly 15minutes before I turned off.

Yeah, I tried using the Listen Back yesterday and while it played alright there didn't seem to be an option to jump forward on the audio (on mobile).

WACKY! KRAY-ZEE! TRI-HARD!

I'm not a designer but has anyone noticed how they've messed up the logo? The rays of the sunshine used to emanate from the o of Today FM as if it was a sun, which makes some sense. But now it's in the middle and from nowhere. I'm being picky but it looks naff.

Call me cynical, but it looks to me like a rebrand for the sake of a rebrand so nobody pays any attention to how bad the station actually sounds.

The Parish Priest.

The photos on the new website look so dumb, what's with Phil Cawley and the 1982 boombox ? I thought they were trying to get rid of any retro image? After all they have axed all oldies shows in recent times, Friday Night 80s, 90s and classic Gold Sunday.

After 15 years I have finally stopped listening to Today FM .Its the end of an era .KC on Red FM is better than Dempsey .Ive turned to Ryan Tubriddy and then Pat Kenney for mornings. Then George and Sean till 4 .I never thought I would tune out of Today FM. Even their app has been deleted from my phone. Regrettable but inevitable

I'm the same....

Been listening to TodayFM for over 10 years at this stage i'd say, but now Ian gets 20 mins airing in the morn & that's it... Sad.

Today FM has become Yesterday FM for me. It's car crash radio now.

Except for Dermot and Dave (and occasionally Matt Cooper) I've actually switched to 2FM between 7 and 7...says it all really.

So it's going wrong but who is the worst of them that drags it down

After a brief switch to 4fm in work, it seems that Niall Boylan is less tolerable to my colleagues than Al Porter, seeing as Today FM was put back on this afternoon.

What the f*** have Today FM done to their playlist...might aswell be listening to bloody Spin!

mikep

I mentioned way back in this thread that it seems the changes in Today FM are to focus on inane chat and predictable repetitive music presented by anyone as the presenter makes no difference. Way to go!! It's background noise for me at work but silence is becoming more and more attractive

I sorted the Al Porter problem this morning, downloaded a Linkin Park album and had something interesting to listen to!

Between 12-4.30 its unlistenable to me, and Matt is slowly going down that way
