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.

Does it really matter who hosts a lunchtime show on a music station? All music stations sound the same with their preselected playlists, cheesy competitions, annoying ads and what's your favorite colour type text topic of the day. Seriously why do we care anymore ?

You'd expect an announcement in the next week or two for Lunchtimes and the new show to kick off in January? Similar to how they did it with D&D taking over from Anton.

Or poss a new thread

I suggest

'Mass panic at Today fm 2018'

mikeym

Thread should be renamed "Today FM Major changes in 2018"

I presume 2017 was a poor year for Today FM.

I clearly remember Matt regularly filling in for ED when he was in leave.

Yeah Matt was a very regular fill in on the show long before he took it full time. Eamon used to take frequent extended breaks!

The beginning of the end for a 5 year old station that is now 20 years old?

Here is an interesting bit of trivia, it was 15 years ago yesterday that Eamon Dunphy hosted the last word for the very last time

Brian Lloyd sounds familiar, he just sounds like a chap who wandered in off the street, his film knowledge is scant and he is a woeful communicator

I didn't hear all of it last night, but yes, I'm talking about Adrian Weckler, he's the tech guy they regularly have on and he's on some newspapers too. Didn't realise he was on last night, I must have missed that bit.

Is the entertainment.ie guy the same fella who does the movie reviews? Brian Lloyd I think his name is? He's very hard to listen to.

I'd like Muireann to get the 12pm slot purely because she's from my hometown/locality but her laugh drives me insane, a right catch 22.

Never heard of Dara Quilty though so cant judge.

I heard some of it. Ridiculous.
Why didn't they have the resident tech expert on? Adrian Weckler I think his name is? At least he's reasonably knowledgeable about the subject and is quite good on segments like that.

Its just another example of the dumbing down of the programme. The likes of Louise Duffy and Susan Keogh giggling about hair brushes FFS.

Matt Cooper on yesterdays show pronounced hi-fi brand "BOSE" as "BO-say". Seriously?

Most (if not the whole) of the show was dedicated to adult toys and gadgets for Christmas. The reviewers went from knowledgeable to clueless (mainly the latter), but the real problem with it was it one of those ideas that needed a visual accompaniment to work. Just really bad radio - and TLW would be what I mostly listen to in the evenings.

I heard the guy reviewing the drones. It was terrible, he didn't have a clue.
