    I don't listen to the radio because I have a life and i have money.
    But if I did have to listen to the radio I would listen to fm104 for the breakfast show in the car, rte radio 1 in work and 4fm the rest of the time.

    Screw the ppi, this is boards off a leash.

    I like the DJ on 2FM good mix of talk and music. Tubridy is much better on the radio than TV.

    Yeah his face is much better suited to radio alright. His mush wouldn't put you in the best of form of a Friday evening when you're on the dry.

    The only radio station I have tuned in my car is newstalk, all my friends laugh at me because I'm only 22 and apparently only old people listen to newstalk.

    I know you.... And you have neither!


    Also... If I could have just one radio station it would be BBC radio 4.

    (its like RTE r1 with talent).

    Only listen to the radio at work, and we usually have Today FM on from 9am - 2pm, then 2FM from 2pm onwards.

    Irish radio? Very little. BBC R4 and R4 extra can be really good at times though. Iphone app, so I don't know if it counts. No AM or FM involved...

    I loved his top notch interview with Jerry Bruckheimer re: the Lone Ranger movie.

    "Did you enjoy the coowwww-baaiiii fillums when you were growing up".

    Didn't know you knew her personally.

    I think he's a lot less biased and more honest than any of the dickheads on RTE. Like Joe the millionaire Duffy but who pretends to care about people's money troubles. :rolleyes: Yeah course he does!

    Irish radio for me is pretty damn disappointing. Today I was just thinking how shyte the music selection was.

    Nova can be good.
    104 good occasionaly,

    the 104 phone show can be very good...at least the bit where they're taking the piss...after that its a predictable 'controversial' question with 2 obvious and opposing answers trumpeted by morons and skangers.

    Spin 1038 and SW have this effect on me.
    Housemates had it on few times. I counted around four Rihanna songs within two hours once. The constant loop of top 30/40 songs can be mind numbing.

    When i lived in Ireland i really liked Newstalk. Used to listen to Today fm but music in general got so overwhelmingly bad i gave up.

    Did like Darcy though. Grumpy but fair!

    I listen to random stations on Tune-In.

    Currently it is AfriRadio Gambia 107.6.

    From the Gambia, believe it or not.

    I wouldn't really listen to the radio in the car or at home . If I'm out and about I'll listen to power 106 (los angeles) or hot 97 (new york) on my phone .
