Getting fed up of him promoting his mates/people who scratch his back. He lives in a world where everyone is middle class and wealthy with young kids and this is who he broadcasts to. Yes, I know I can turn him off and will do so - the Noel Edmonds back-slapping and promotion interview has just pushed me over the edge!

What was that Michelle Obama nonsense about? I only listened in the car for half an hour so didn't hear the beginning or end.

CE started his career as ‘Nobby No Level’ on Timmy Mallet’s radio show on Piccadilly radio. Apt name.
He had a job in a newsagent when he was a teenager. His old boss said ‘Chis Evans is just an idiot. I can’t believe he gets paid for it’. Yep.

noodle Her book sold something like 65,000 copies , more than fucking supervet he then mentioned that he knew her PR people and that they listened to his show, fuck he went in and on , I stopped listening at 7.30 when I got to work , I’m guessing she didn’t get to Wogan HouseGrin.

Oh I thought she'd promised to come in but was held up with security or something! What an idiot. Shows how arrogant he's become that he thinks a former first lady would just be able to pop into his show when she has a lifetime security detail!

Miss Terry.
I 'm a radio 6 music listener in the morning but will probably return to Ken when Mary Ann Hobbs starts in December.
I lose the will to live when she's on.

Agree with all pps!
YANBU - I find Evans smug, self congratulating and a luvvie. Jeremy Vine is opinionated, condescending and constantly interrupts guests/callers to force his point of view. Steve Wright is, I agree embarrassin’ (no g as he would hilariously say) and nauseating on a Sunday. Eventually turned them all off apart from the magnificent Ken Bruce who is witty, articulate and a pleasure to listen to.

Also agree Paul O’Grady is good (don’t like him much on telly tho) and I love Liza Tarbuck

Wooooooooaaaaaaaahhhhhhh · 08/12/2018 16:43

I don’t like Paul O’Grady, he just goes on about dogs and past dogs.

noodlenosefraggle · 08/12/2018 17:47

Paul O Grady bores me too. I have no idea why I still listen to R2 Grin

BitOutOfPractice · 09/12/2018 00:17

Oh yes, lord preserve me from o'Grady and his fucking dogs. He's the only one who manages to mention dogs more than Tarbuck and that's quite the achievement 🙄

I think a lot of the sunday shows are pre recorded
