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.

Not at all, completely interchangeable- pretty safe bet she’ll be hosting it again as a substitute at some stage.

Susan Keogh gone to newstalk? good riddance, she can spread her feminist agenda there (not sure how she got the job though)

They’re owned by the same company (Communicorp) and broadcast from the same building. To describe it as a move might be overstating it.

I think I'm going through a midlife crisis or something.
I'm 36 and I've spent the last 3 days listening to 2fm from 6:30am to 8pm without changing the channel on the work radio, tune in on my phone and my home radio!
I was one of Dan Healys biggest critics and called him every name under the sun when he called the old hosts but it's actually become very listenable,
This obviously has a lot to do with the intolerable Jennuendo missing from breakfast republic and with Louise McSharry filling in for the walking ego and anti Trump fanatic or as I like to call him CooperLite Eoghan McDermott.
But I've actually been enjoying every show straight through.
I can't say I've stayed with one station all day since the golden age of today FM.
Obviously this could still be a midlife crisis or a more serious condition but I'm liking it.

Louise McSharry has been very good as Eoghan McDermott's stand in, I hope Dan Healy keeps her as Eoghan's sub into the future

As for Dan Healy.....I think we all got upset with him for a lot of the changes he made at the time but he has done a good job with the daytime lineup

I assume this means the new 2FM fans will stop whinging about every TodayFM presenter here then?

Has anyone else noticed how often they play Wheatus' Teenage Dirtbag? Today FM is on in the office all day every day here and it must be at least once a week that they play this song. It's really bizarre. Of all the classics to mix up the dire playlist of the same 15 songs repeated all day, every day, why THIS one? Are they getting a special deal for every time they play it or what?

I think its on an ad for a quiz / feature they have every day?

2FM is A LOT better than Today FM at the moment.

I wonder could I persuade the office to change over...

Watch out Brock, Mikey will be coming after you now!

Or more likely he’s already moved on to working pro bono as a publicist for his latest radio fantasy. You’ll probably be ok.

For Forks Sake

I've said it before, but the thread seems to have livened up, they may as well ditch Muireann and just play this on loop for two hours, the end result is the same.

Sick of those bloody Court Me ads. And TodayFM breaks. Only things I listen to these days is D&D and a bit of McCloone if I'm driving in the evening

Sorry, I failed to answer your original question. No, I wouldn't put her on.

I think you must be suffering from the Average At Best Radio Presenter variation of Shiny New Object Syndrome.

It's Louise today.
It'll be Laura tomorrow.
On Thursday it'll be Dara Quilty should be presenting every show on Today FM.
On Friday it'll be Today FM should poach Lottie Ryan from 2FM to target the Kardashian News Fans.
By Saturday it'll be Doireann Garrihy is totes amazeballs, Today FM should move her up from Spin so she can bring her social media followers with her.
And next week we'll start it all over again.

she failed in two prime spots beforehand and I think she wants to focus on the fashion stuff her husband gets up to and the "blogging" (originally the story they came out with when they switched her and ferg)

She IS a TV star. She's on the Six O Clock Show.

She was a DJ first. I don’t mind her crossing over to tv. I hate when tv stars with no DJ experience get a prime slot on radio just because they are quasi-famous.

Sure; put her, Laura Whitmore, and Dara Quilty on as your Dream Team. Then when your next flavour of the month minute comes on the scene, add them to it as well. By Christmas you'll have 40 people hosting.

ONLY YOU could cite Love Island as a reference point for a different medium. You must want a PR job in Communicorp so badly......

As someone who knows more than one person who is currently in there, and more than one who left - be careful what you wish for.

Look at Love Island. That was axed in the mid 00s due to terrible viewing figures, and when it was rebooted in 2015 it went on to become ITV2's most watched show ever. EVER. Who's to say a second chance wouldn't work out?

I agree-she hasn’t much competition.
Having said that I always liked Louise-she was very easy to listen to and really does have a lovely personality. Paula-She really use to get on my nerves but when she was filling in for Muireann I found her great. So much better than Muireann. I just find her such hard work to listen to.

I don’t mind her , not great but since they have to have a female on the day , she’s the best they have at Today fm, better than Paula (I’ve a fella don’t you know), Louise, Alison babies Curtis, and Susan Keogh
