What's the best radio Breakfast Show in the UK

I get in every morning listens to the Capital Breakfast Show in the UK with Jordan North, Chris Stark and Sian Welby. Probs the breakfast show people know off. I didn't really like Jordan North when he joined (he took over from Roman Kemp and was a big fan of roman and even when jordan joined still did like chris and sian) but he grew on me slightly. People think it's the best breakfast show ever but others like different shows.

So i'm curious to know, What's your favrouite breakfast show on UK Radio. Maybe you have kids and they laugh their way to school, or you work early to mid morning and you have something on at work. Just wondering

i did come back to Zoe Ball after going off her initially and am sad she has gone

Edited

I'm really pissed off that Scott Mills is taking over and Trevor Nelson is taking his slot. We had wall to wall men from 6.30am to 7pm until Zoe, then we got her and Sara Cox. Now we're back to a sausage fest till 4pm. I think Trevor is brilliant and having a black presenter during the day has been a long time coming, but they could have replaced Zoe with a woman.

I only listen to the radio in the car really. I start with Greg James, switch when the music is shit to Zoe Ball but I don't like her so I don't stay long unless they have a good guest. Then switch between Heart and a local station. I go round and round usually depending on the music at that moment.

I will probably give Scott Mills more airtime than Zoe Ball because she's annoying and he is on my wavelength and he suits me.

Today on Radio 4.

If it’s the music you’re listening for, why not play your own?

Car is old. I'd need to buy a gizmo to connect my phone and be organised enough to download some on there to begin with. No one sells cds anymore.

= can't be arsed to work out how to do it without spending any actual money.

Also my journeys are rarely more than an hour max and I quite like bouncing around stations depending on my whim.

You just need an aux cable- cheap as chips. I have Spotify and listen to podcasts and music , learn languages and all sorts Do it, it will change your life! ☺️

@greengreyblue @FuckItItsFine

My car is newer, 2011. I've just been out to see if I have an aux connection and I do! It's hidden away under the 12v charge point but it's there.

So, if I buy an android version of that cable, I can download stuff onto my phone and it plays through the radio if I plug it in? Yes?

Do I need a stable connection though? I'd still need to bother to download stuff I guess as I'm not paying for a streaming service outside of home WiFi.

But the radio plays stuff all the time for free and I can switch if I don't like it.

Times Radio. I love Stig and Asamah. If I fancy some music, Absolute radio.

I came to say the same about Times Radio. I like their dynamic. They have some really interesting and entertaining chats with guests as well.

I wonder who will replace Aasmah Mir when she leaves in January.

Hmm

Your opinion, he is excellent in the afternoon as opposed to Zoe balls tedious show!

SnowyIcySnow · 23/12/2024 16:39

Anyone who has news at 7.30, and doesn't use the dreadfull Vicky Pattinson as their occasional DJ. One that basis, I've moved away from Heart, as I just can't stand the woman.
I'm on a local station currently.
