Deleted User wrote: Actually, I think it’s very helpful to have that sort of information from Ronan, or anybody else. I’ve booked tickets to gigs a number of times thanks to a mention by a presenter, especially Lilian Smith (who has a great show on weekend mornings incidentally)
Brendan Bendar wrote: Have to say I like Lillian Smith, nice relaxed presentation, nice accent, don’t hear her too much but would have no complaints.

Deleted User wrote: » I might be a bit odd (no comments, please!) but I generally enjoy Ronan Collins, he's got a good radio persona, he plays a wide variety of stuff and doesn't seem to be overly limited to some sort of centrally determined playlist. He is respectful of the Angelus, Nuacht and seems to run a pretty good ship.

I mean for how long is he wheeled it to pro is the same sing-song patter on a BHM (bank holiday Monday) For two foohhherking hours. Jaysus... would anyone in D4 think or suggest its time for a frikking change. Cannot get a handle on that way of thinking.... other than the grunts accept it, we will keep feeding them shooyte.

Brendan Bendar wrote: » To be honest, they should just change something, anything, just try something different... for a change. I emphasize by the way the criticism is probably more against RTe than Ronan, who I’m sure is a very nice person. Smacks of lazy programming to be adopting the same tired formula for decades. In my opinion.
Kenny B wrote: » It's an Afternoon show, not everything has to be edgy, changing for the sake of change is total madness, my guess is he has one of the highest songs per hour average - that is a good thing. Listening to DJ's prattle on about nonsense is annoying. Cathal Murray at night keeps the chat to a minimum also, even though he comes across as the most boring man alive, he has a good show because he plays the music.
