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.

The funny thing is that when she was just presenting a music show, nobody seemed to mind her.

She wasnt talking for 90percent of the show, not prattling about Babies, the text no or her twitter handle and the music she played was quality stuff...all before playing the same 10 songs of Ed Sheeran/Adele etc

Sadly, in the modern world it all about identity and quotas rather than ability in many cases.

Surely if someone is good enough, they should get the job regardless of age, sex, sexual orientation, colour, creed, height, weight or anything else?:rolleyes:

Is she harping on about kids on the breakfast show?

Its unbearable. Surely the chief qualifying criteria to be on the radio is a voice or accent that doesn't irritate a very large proportion of potential listeners?

I'm not racist or anything but that Canadian accent is really , really irritating

I don't think it's the accent that's the irritating part :pac:

That's her. Her name escaped me for a while.

She normally does the ground breaking 6 at 6, and her previous big hit, the 5 at 5.

Susan Keogh I take it.

It'll either be Pam, or Shelly Gray who's covering for Hector & she was on today, there's another Shelly, who does the telly, but is she Gray too

As afaik the 1st one is the dietitian who came into the Double D's one day.

Talk about covering, was Todayfm the only station off, as Patkenny was on Newstalk, did no one tell him, as some of the slots were on R1, although no Liveline :P

Haven't tried it yet, but do you need to download the app or listen to it online?
As i think i heard here that people were having trouble with the app & saw bad reviews on playstore,
As i've noticed when you click on a page/podcast the page goes blank, it seems that you have to r/click for the page to appear & not go blank!

Does that happen to anyone?

The Shelly that does the telly is Michelle McMahon. Shelly gray is a different person and she is a dietitian.

Wouldn't work on the app for me so I just listened to it through the browser

Ah well, no radio in the morning so:(

But I assume she will be off next weekend though? Doubt she'll be on mornings for 6 days in a row...

Yeah the 80s one is pretty good so far, previously listened to Heart 80s (UK based).

Anyone know if Today FMs version is going to be 100% automated?

I think a 1-4pm slot would be good for him. When Anton or Al left they could easily have rescheduled the schedule to 7-10, 10-1, 1-4, 4-7.

Afaik they had slots like that, back then, as PhilCawley was on 1-4 & Dunphy 4-7?

She's on in the morning live from merrion square I think.

Sponsored by Cadbury's, expect a lot of chocolate & hyper... kids
Oh Phil Cawley's show's there too.

You’d assume they will until they get adds/sponcership

On a side note who actually dances around their kitchens?

Listened to the 80s one for a few hours today, thought it was brilliant. No ads either surprisingly.

Have been listening to Today XM but without any DJs, it's not very exciting. Music is good enough but there's very little new stuff fwics. Could be wrong on that as I'm only getting snippets through the day when I've a few minutes kid free.

NIMAN

Don't forget the people dancing round the kitchens.
