Whats the best Irish radio station to listen to?

Which category do you fit into?

who ye on about?

Not a sport.

Switched to Red FM as KC is the new breakfast host. So far so good.

Kelly Ann Byrne.

Used to have a programme on Phantom on Saturday nights.

Even though they have given gonks like George Hamilton, Gay Byrne, Lorcan Murray and Marty Whelan shows, RTE Lyric is still the best station in the country. Aedin Gormley and John Kelly are quite simply the two best radio presenters around.

Q102 is a grand driving station

Its the only one I listen to anymore.

Will Pod-casting on the go kill daytime radio eventually?

If I could get a car radio that allowed me to listen to pod casts I doubt I’d be bothered listening to live radio again. Similar to TV. The only thing I watch ‘live’ now is sports, everything else is on Sky+ or On Demand.

Yeah, the aux port connected to the mobile is cumbersome but its all I do lately. Audiobooks, podcasts etc…

i just have Q102 and newstalk on the go really
failing that its guardian football weekly WOOF podcasts or the BBC WS

yeah, phone into the aux port, been doing it for years

On a related topic, are there any apps you can use to download from Soundcloud?

:rolleyes:

Marty is a stone cold legend fagan. His insanity has kept me sane on the road for the last few years.

I just flick between them and Nova when I’m driving. I’m approaching 40 and fucking hate modern music, so they’re ideal for me :oops:

Newstalk is like the Sindo on radio. Ivan Yates ranted about Gerry Adams for 10 mins with his queer sidekick when it didn’t even get a mention on RTE. Jonathon Healy interviewed the dissident at lunchtime when i flicked over and then Sean Moncrieff interviewed Pat Healy from Sunday Business Post straight after about…Gerry Adams. Only listened cos the RTE app kept dropping out…

Same owner same agenda.

Newstalk dont have the money for proper journalism. Their approach is all about personality djs and soapboxing. Their morning, lunchtime and evening news shows are prime examples of terrible journalism.
