How is GK Barry going to bring new engagement if her show is pre recorded and the listeners can’t text in? Where’s the engagement in that?
Interesting that the article says they have no replacement ready for Greg if he decides to go which we’ve been saying for ages
Aww god I hope he doesn’t go, he’s the best of them right now

I might be in a minority but I can’t stand GK and won’t be listening, I also hope she fails. The article says they want to do attract younger listeners - do young people listen to the radio? My oldest is nearly 18 and he listens to everything on his phone but not the actual radio, he only listens to that when I’ve got it blasting out 🤣
Yeah I don't think young people listen to the radio either to be honest! I'm not that young and I don't even really listen to the radio! I always have my phone connected to Bluetooth in my car. I only listen to the radio at work

I used to keep semi up to date with commercial pop by listening Radio 2. Now I’ve stopped completely due to this shambles I’m officially out of touch with any new releases. Spotify here i come.

I always found GK a huge irritant after seeing her on I'm a Celeb.
But since that bloody awful documentary she did about here she's firmly on my tit list.

Did anyone notice Gary's little jibe yesterday on Drive Time about not knowing how long he would be covering for?

My elderly mum said the other day 'Spoony's done a great job, but I do miss Trevor Nelson in the afternoons' 😂 The Radio 2 demographic is wide...
I totally agree with your mum 🥰He really has. Shame his regular slot is at stupid o'clock. I really need to listen to him on Sounds 🤦😀

Spoony has been great and so respectful to Trevor. Literally every day saying I’m here looking after things for Trevor. Did a good show but didn’t try to take over which you sometimes see others do. Just found it very classy.
