No idea, but nova is dead to me with the constant referencing their show every ad break and them seemingly being on the radio any time i tune in.
Same here. I had been tuning in after 10am but the constant recapping of bits from the breakfast show has made no time of day safe to listen. And why do they need to still declare it to be the "home of the Colm & Lucy breakfast show"? They're old news at this stage.
And what's the story with their claim that certain songs can only be played by Radio Nova? "Here's one you'll only get right here because only Radio Nova can play it".
Actually, there are so many things that irritate me about Nova now. Obviously, top of the pile is the breakfast show pair. The newsreader that shouts the news in what sounds like one long, loud sentence also drives me mad. Ads are always annoying but there's one woman in particular who is hired to do a lot of ads and her voice really winds me up in every ad she does.
Please, please, please can someone set up a new radio station? My ears are crying out for something new to listen to. I enjoy listening to John Kelly on Lyric FM from 7pm-9pm during the week. Sometimes his choices aren't my cup of tea but other times they really are. And on Sunday nights his guest chooses the tunes, which is great. It's a lucky bag of music. You never know what you're going to get.
Feels good to get that off my chest - thanks for reading, any of you that did

Your particular ailment is not insignificant. Excoriating mindless criticism without revealing a shred of any apparent knowledge of any of the elements that you are withering in your criticisms of. You clearly know nothing of radio presentation, production, news or voice overs. If you dislike something to such an apparently myopic extent, than change over and stop bleating such pathetic codswallop.0 -

Hi Colm.
It's obvious someone's opinion on how bad Nova has gone has hit a nerve. It's not mindless criticism, especially since a lot of people here share the same opinion.
Who cares about radio presentation, when all the station presents to it's listeners is actually inane mindless drivel that's driving people away from listening in the first place?
Maybe you shouldn't be so quick to bleat about pathetic codswallop to a myopic extent and attack every poster that shares a negative opinion about the sorry state of affairs Nova has become.
I tuned in again for the first time in what must be a year or more the other day, to hear nothing has changed and the same boring scripted did you hear what happened on the breakfast show adverts were trotted out repeatedly. It's boring, unfunny and the exact reason I no longer listen.
I'm not the only one, but I expect my opinion is codswallop like all the others that have shared a similar one.
P.s. maybe the troll should feed elsewhere...0 -

A good few questions specifically about the breakfast show and do you listen before or after 10am, so they know its not popular. I've let them know my feelings about it, and before the anyone tells me "they will ignore",
if they do then they do but I'm happy I got a chance to vent my feelings
Copy and paste my comments word for word including the grammar mistake

I though I was the only one.
I cannot stand her voice.
Also the lad that says "my dad always knows the best place to get a fry in dublin"
punch in the neck for the pair of them
