The two Johnnie's are to move to the iconic mid-morning Gerry Ryan slot and Jen Z goes to drive according to the red tops today https://www.rsvplive.ie/news/celebs/2fm-planning-major-shake-up-32825017
apologies; yes I know him. Well deserved and glad they’re promoting from within.
I presume it's Graham Smyth who has been around 2fm filling in on various shows for an number of years.
dumb arse question - who’s Graham?
12 till 3 Lunchtime but I feel the Foley show could be debated as JP and Ann/Adele were never billed in the credits so to speak
What time was Ray foley on today fm? There were 3 there...
Anorak question = I know there are a few past and present examples of 3 header breakfast shows, but is 3 presenters on an afternoon drive slot a very first for Irish radio ? @Declan A Walsh might know for sure
Interesting. I expect a more official announcement soon.
Beta said it at towards end of Tracy show
source?
Cant wait for the forced "bantz" and zany "humour"
Emma, Roz and Graham going drive home. Sure money isn’t an issue
I never said anything about Lottie Ryan.
You prefer the pile on of Lottie Ryan ??
😂😂😂😂
few weeks time, Bonnie, Rex Elliot and Babbette Ryan are all coincidently hired
Its going on three months since they took expressions of interest for 2 fm. Has there been any update at all on if the applications were even looked at?
😴 ……
Apologies, I thought I had clicked into the today fm thread.
Obviously not! I'm just pointing out that it is completely unrelated to 2FM. After all, there is already a thread for Today FM.
are you an admin…. ?
It would be great if she did. The 2 Johnnies though were an interesting experiment.
This is a thread about 2FM's schedule, not Today FM. Just saying…
Shocking show….. Gave up listening when Dermot left……
My guitars……. my diy… your jokes…… the WORST quiz on radio ….. I dont wash my legs in the shower …………………….
WTAF…. 😣
I see &Dave is bringing out a book of bad jokes. They're not even his jokes as he gets listeners to send them in.
I suppose he should make hay because he surely won't be in such a good slot for long.
so is it time Jenny returned to drivetime slot ?? They need a strong name there.
The whole reson for bringing in the two Johnnies to replace Jenny Greene was that the afternoon slot had reached the lowest jnlrs ever at 112k. In fairness to be the two Johns, jnlrs grew up to over 160k thanks to them, so it's surprising that Beta is left there for so long because he's doing the same style of show that Jenny Greene used to do in that slot.
that surprises me, that's a flagship show. RTE must be suffering a brain drain.
I am not a fan of Sports Radio, but I happened to listen to Sunday Sport intro at the weekend and the preview couldn't be heard over the music.
no idea where it sits against OTB, but last night you couldnt hear Marie doing her preview of what was coming up over the into music. Ruby was muttering away again. Every night its been like this for ever, why cant they sort this simple thing out??
Before it was rejigged it was an actual proper sportsnews show, they seriously downgraded it when Ruby/Donnacha were put in as hosts and they have just left it there to fill in an hour for years. Its a problem with that show itself because it doest happen on any other RTE sports show or indeed any other 2FM show.
It's such a poor program. And like a square peg in a round hole on that weekday schedule. How does it compare to Off the Ball in the JNLRs or does it even feature? Ruby on Mondays and Tuesdays, presumably on a handy retainer for two hours work, offers very little and a poor presenter.
