Really annoying DJ's

I think you'll find our tune was Simon Bates0

I don't like Steve Wright either and can't listen to his afternoon show. I regularly listen to Radio 2, but have usually switched off by the time the Steve Wright show starts as well, I don't like the Jeremy Vine show as it's just boring and the subject matter lately has just been ridiculous.
I do enjoy Tony Blackburn's show on a Saturday "Pick of the pops" and Sara Cox's "Sounds of the 80's".
Although with the internet you're not restricted to what you listen to these days.
Surely the taping from the radio thing wouldn't be relevant now, if you wanted a song that badly, you could get it off the internet these days anyway!Striving to clear the mortgage before it finishes in Dec 2028 - amount currently owed - £26,322.670 -

I know, that's the part I don't understand.
I guess other presenters are a bit too challenging for the average daytime listener.Hope over Fear. #VoteYes0 -
"Our tune" Was Simon Bates not Steve Wright and was on at 10am (or was it 11) Monday to Friday

Wasn't Mr Angry a Steve Wright creation?0

Quote about Alan Freeman which is relevant here.
His style has been parodied, and he was the model for Harry Enfield's character Dave Nice, although he contributed to the satire himself in good grace by appearing on Enfield's show (and Enfield himself praised Freeman in Simon Garfield's book on Radio 1, The Nation's Favourite, by categorising him along with John Peel as "DJs who loved music" as opposed to "DJs who loved the sound of their own voices, like Dave Lee Travis").Iva started Dec 2018.0 -

OMG I agree with you. Something must have hit me hard on the head yesterday!0 -
I must admit I always have a chuckle when someone has written in asking for a request to celebrate their millionth wedding anniversary on his sunday love songs show and then he plays a song about a broken heart/ breaking up etc

If you think Steve Wright is annoying, try listening to R1.
I guarantee you won't be able to last for more than thirty seconds.0
