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.

Today FM Management need a good kick up the backside for what they have turned the station into!

Ursus Horribilis

Problem is, the next incumbent will also sound like they've been taking Powerade intravenously before going on air. It's what management on that station want these days.

Have just turned the radio off. Muireann O’Connell is totally hyper today. There was me thinking she had toned it down a bit but not today!

Time to give someone else the lunchtime show.

I have to say I quite enjoyed Muireann on the breakfast show this week, credit where credit is due, she was very good interacting with the quiz contestants having a bit of light banter, Iano is very bad at speaking with people and comes across as very awkward and a bit cringy at times, his interviews arent his strong point although fair dues to him handling a severely intoxicated damon albarn a few weeks back

anyone find the new-ish website a serious resource hog? chrome task manager shows the tab using 40% CPU whenever i click anything. loading the podcasts page for example takes a good few seconds and it's not my internet connection. way too much javascript

Patrick Freyne. Another dose. He used to spend the whole slot giggling like an over excited child.

ah, thats him, yea i dont think he was playing with a full deck, he just sat there finding everything hilarious
i was listening to gannon on the slot recently and i heard her get a dig in saying something about patrick frayne formerly of this parish....

Shows the standards that TodayFM have sunk to. When Maria was off on maternity Shelly was as bad as Jennifer Gannon. Every programme she put forward was absolute tripe, and Dave Moore gleefully agreed with her. I watched one episode on C4 of a "comedy" about a letting agent. Sweet Jesus, I've never seen anything quite as bad as it, yet the two of them thought it utterly hilarious. Same with Friday night dinner. Rule of thumb became: If she praises it, avoid like the plague.

There isn't a hope in hell that she works for the Irish Times! I know print media, and the Irish Times to a certain extent, isn't what it used to be, but standards would have to be at an all-time low to employ that mouthpiece.

She's the absolute pits. Everything she utters is just the worst worst inane awful drivel imaginable.

It's like the show gives the listeners absolutely zero credit in the intelligence department. Dumbed down to the basement. Where's the intelligent radio that it used to be only a few years ago? Christ.

The news headlines now sum up the way the station has gone. Dumb as f.

This morning I heard headlines that had
1) main story, eg brexit or trump
2) some Irish serious story
3) the world's least favourite emoji

Its gone down the road of iRadios news, which is also sh!te. When they got rid of the 15 min news at 1 it all went downhill.
Who honestly cares that Billy Piper is having another baby? They have shoehorn some entertainment story into every bulletin.

music discussion going on about the moment on the last word, sounds like they all haven't a clue, though think that they do.

john caddell is one of them and declared to his fellow contributor "you're a music nerd, I am a music nerd"

the female contributor said in relation to kate bush (in typical I havent a clue style):

"i remember when i was 7 and i heard a kate bush CD and thought to myself i never had heard music like this ever before"

she must have listened to so much music before she was 7!!
