Is she really all there?

Ah I like her. I think she is a safe pair of hands and is easy to listen to-

but I don't like the 'hatched matched and dispatched' segment. There are often v poignant death stories and calling it 'dispatched' just seems kind of....crass. It's an uncomfortable fit for an otherwise nicely put together programme

(if the show would like my notes, that is wot I think 🤪).

I really enjoy Sara on my drive home and sometimes put the radio on when I get in too. It's like having an old friend with me!

(I quite like how she breezes through her show, vs Vernon Kay who, if there is a point to labour, really puts in a shift.-.viz the bbc vault section where he plays a midly amusing or interesting clip from the past and then proceeds to repeat and remind us of what he has just played, ad-gurning-nauseum. Yes, yes we've all heard it, we've all clapped and lol'd, v.good, crack on now.)

I still wish she got the breakfast show. She's too perky for drive time for me.

I really dislike this new segment too. It seems to really bring the mood down and the stories are always way too long. I love Sara though.

On a more important note, how the fuck has that talentless twat, Paddy McGuiness managed to get himself a permanent slot???

While I think about it lets get rid of Scott Mills. He is an embarrassingly bad DJ. I cringe when I listen to him. DJ Spooney is a good replacement for him

I'd like it if R2 stopped their 'too old for R1' recruitment policy.
