Most annoying voice on radio

Timothy Bryce · 17-12-2007 2:05pm

Nobody seems to have mentioned the worst offenders of them all: Spin 103.8 - The majority of the DJ's on Spin make me want to throw the radio out the window....Jonathan McRea, Steve K, those two tw@ts on the Zoo Crew....

Really starting to detest Matt Cooper quite a bit too - he's got nothing good to say about anyone/anything...especially when he has that eejit Neil Francis talking about the rugby.

The usual suspects have always been Adrian Kennedy & Jeremy Dixon - best example of Lowest Common Denominator radio

Sam Vimes · 17-12-2007 2:07pm

i'm surprised no one has mentioned moncrief. i don't hate his voice but its very distinctive so you'd think someone would hate it. the gf does.

Dudess · 17-12-2007 6:44pm

Yeah, Moncrieff does bug me.

Nightwish · 17-12-2007 7:04pm

Moicheal Mock Mollen is definately the King of Idiot voices. Emma MockNomora on the business news is a close second followed closely by Anthony "Tony Fenton" Fagan's mid atlantic twang.

Dudess · 17-12-2007 7:14pm

Oh yes, Emma McNamara - she really hurts my ears.

pd101 · 17-12-2007 7:20pm

Matt Cooper drives me nuts, cant bare listening to him.

17-12-2007 7:25pm

The girl who does the ad for Dundrum Town Centre and currently, Lyyyyyyrath Estate.
Her voice and accent are incredibly irritating.

Red Hand · 17-12-2007 7:31pm

Taxi driver's favourite Joe Duffy. Its not really the accent just the insufferable whining twinge to his voice.

Mike... · 17-12-2007 7:32pm

Moncrieff I hate the ****er...annoying gob****e

Msfc · 17-12-2007 7:39pm

Definately Mat Cooper-sooooo annoying and also Jenny Heuston!!

gonementhol · 17-12-2007 7:42pm

Mr Mock Mollen would definitley get my vote as well. The amount of times I've missed the sports news that I actually wanted hear, but turned it off because his voice actually annoyed me more!!

AMHRASACH · 17-12-2007 7:43pm

Good evening, Ooooooiiiimmmmmmm Mmmoooiichael MmmmcMullen

speak properly man, this isn't a self-parodying comedy skit :rolleyes:

is there anyone whose voice annoys you more?

I was going to post about this guy!Where the hell did he find that accent??I thought it was a Gift Grub sketch when i first heard him on Today fm.
Where is he actually from?Is there a new breed of D4?

Mr Lahey · 17-12-2007 7:48pm

Johnny Lyons who does sport on 98fm. What an absolute nasal bell-end.

That guy on Spin in the afternoon...aaaaaaaaaaaaaah he wrecks my head!!

walt0r · 17-12-2007 8:50pm

Gogan is a pain the hole too. Jenny Heuston as well

Latchy · 17-12-2007 9:03pm

Dont listen to rte radio as much as i use to although i do tune into JOE DUFFYYYYYYYYYYYYY mainly for the various intresting topics and to remind myself of the variations of irish accents ( dont get home as much ) followed by 'moonys money ' ....now her (jingle ) accent is sexy

_blank_ · 17-12-2007 9:46pm

Ray Foley.

Gillie · 17-12-2007 9:55pm

Ray Darcy, Ruth Scott and Claire Byrne!
Grrrr...

Capt'n Midnight · 17-12-2007 10:39pm

Gerry Ryan - every time I hear him it reminds me that he is stealing oxygen

bitemybanger · 17-12-2007 10:41pm

no question about it, Johnny Lyons

PlayGirl · 17-12-2007 10:58pm

yer one jenny (dont know if its greene or houston) on 2fm..
its like she constantly has a cold and tries to put on a really sexy voice that just doesnt work..
cant listen to her..

Pigman II · 17-12-2007 11:02pm

Jenny Huston? I'd hit that. Her accent is a definite selling point.

OPENROAD · 17-12-2007 11:05pm

Irish djs that for some reason sound American

Gerry Ryan, tony Fenton and Ray Foley

smaoifs · 18-12-2007 12:28am

Aw I like Michael McMullan. Ray Darcy is doing my head in lately but I think that's more the patronising tone than the voice itself.

Hate those two preschoolers on 2fm mornings and am just praying for the day Ruth Scott gives herself lockjaw. On a local level, Matt Keane (strongest Waterford accent ever) and Oliver Carroll on WLR are enough to make me switch off.

Anti · 18-12-2007 9:59am

There used to be a wan on that waterford radio station, not waterford today, the other wan, i forget its name...

Aaaaanyway her name is Orlaith Rapple, its not so much her voice but the way she acts on air. I had to turn the brekkie show off every day otherwise i got the impulse to go down to the station and impale my fist through her face.. Im sure she's a lovely girl though >_>

Noviceman · 18-12-2007 10:00am

there can only be one winner of this contest it has to be Daft Dave with the adds for right price Tiles, God i hate it and switch channels every time and i will never buy from right price tiles as a result, someone should tell them it doesn't work

cupcake · 18-12-2007 11:12am

Ive no problem with Michael Mc Mullen other than teh way he says his name.

"Hiiii, im Moycal Mc Mallennnn..."

Matt Cooper irritates the **** out of me.

exactly! No probs with his reporting voice, it's the self-intro that does me in.

It's sport headlines on radio, not a cheesy quiz show.

it's "Orla". And she is.

liz T · 18-12-2007 1:30pm

Michael McMullen is so bloody annoying I dread hearing him, he puts me in a bad mood. So does Harvey Norman, Daft Dave and Rick O Shea.

floyd333 · 18-12-2007 1:39pm

Matt Cooper (What a complete tool. Hate him so much)
Ruth Scoot (Makes me want to vomit. Man womaman from the middle of nowhere)
Tim Kelly on Today FM
The one who reads the news on Today FM in the morning (She is so trying to get a big media job and do a Lorraine Keane on it)
Ray Darcy (Do we have to hear about your bloody kid again)
Ann Marie Kelly on Today FM (Another Ruth Scott)

Nalz · 18-12-2007 1:44pm

+1000. Worst accent on radio.

Also Frances Shanahan, the one who gives the farm news. Horrible nasal quality to her voice.

Most annoying voice on radio
