What was the first ever audio recording?

The earliest known intelligible recorded sound of a human voice was conducted on April 9, 1860 when Scott recorded someone singing the song "Au Clair de la Lune" ("By the Light of the Moon") on the device.

I really have to question what I'm doing with my life listening to a show where the highlight is the unintentional comedy of the sound of some guy inadvertently pressing keys on his phone while on a call.

in recent years the doc on one has gone downhill

I know it's been said many times this year but I'd have to put this sh#te show in the top one of katies most boring shows of the year/years 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🙄

I think this was middle of the road by KH's standards. First segment was particularly painful alright. Even the caller was willing to end the conversation long before it actually ended.

I think some of Colm's most recent stint were quite bad - as bad as anything KH has ever done.

I don't mind her as a broadcaster. She's fine - but as a permanent host of a show like LL? Absolutely not suitable.

Caller, you need to call in and share the love 0818715815 😃

Oh "it's a pity" alright.

Young Despard captained the University Challenge winners so expect more from his da tomorrow

"There's a new head of audio and they might just... RTE are great for shaking things up and doing something different, aren't they? They're mad for that. But we'll see.

"And you'd need to be appointed by Joe. You'd need full approval. Otherwise, you'd have no chance in hell."

I don't know if she's being sarcastic or not!

Other names mentioned in connection with Liveline include Katie Hannon, Ray D'Arcy, Claire Byrne, Sean Moncrieff, Marty Morrisey, and Joe Brolly.

Ugh.

I call for continuity: John from Cark or Anne from Cannes could probably take over seamlessly.

Also, Derek Mooney is mincing around the radio centre on big money with only half a gig.
