BBC6 Radio - comment, discussion and moans

I want to listen again to yesterday’s programming but I don’t have enough data and my internet is down. Guy Garvey and Amy Lamé are ok but they’re so MOR.

Fucking switch it off if it bothers you that much. Taking the piss out of someone just cos they're leaving a job is not a good look and it could well be because of mental health issues or just a desire to improve himself. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that but there is something wrong with someone who persists in listening to a radio programme just to pick holes in it.
 
You're under the impression he's leaving of his own volition? He was sacked. He and his style don't and won't fit into the 'vision' of the new boss which is a far younger and more diverse demographic.

And I don't 'keep listening' to it. I occasionally tune in. It's pretty much unbearable but when I'm working and can't be arsed choosing my own tunes 6 is good, it's just the talking, particularly by him. Even his co-host there in her gushing outro to him said 'the first thing I learned about radio is that if there's nothing to say, don't say anything - you Shaun, proved that wrong' Fucking hell. No, he didn't. :facepalm:
 
I don't think he was sacked. Unless Charles is a placeholder for someone younger that isn't free for a while. I reckon CC was the only solution they could find at short notice when SK decided on new pastures.
 
He was most definitely sacked. That was pretty much made clear in his goodbye from Hobbs there. Much as Radcliffe and Maconie have been bumped to an obscure slot. White middle aged men are not the order of the day.

I'm sure he is a nice man and I hope he does sort something else out, but failure to adapt to the times is not a good career move in any industry,

Leaving or sacked it makes no difference. Just shut the fuck up!

Are you serious about Lamb/Moyles spitfire, or is that lols?

lols. would be awful.

I have to listen to Xfm now in the car as my car is ancient and all my journeys are so short I cba to set up bluetooth etc. (yes, they are essential, heavy things need picking up).

Moyles is still an insufferable ignorant cunt. Vaughan is still a stream of idiocy.

They're such fucking laaaads. I hate them.

eta: Absolute was my previous last resort but now it has been replaced by Kid Jensen or something playing well know disco hits all fucking day.
