I
NEED
to know what happened with Aifric. It's consuming me at this point.
2FM are so brain dead. Last year, whatever about anything else, they had gotten a load of highly paid people off the payroll.
To replace the 2 Johnnies, all they had to do was to just let Aifric and Aindriu take over that slot. It wouldn't have cost them a cent more as they were already staff. And it would have had continuity with the previous show, and they had a good shot of maintaining that cohort of listeners.
Instead, they drop Aifric in to breakfast (where she did great) while they hemorrhaged listeners from the afternoon slot.
So what do they do in their shakeup - bring Doireann back in , and probably double the wage bill. And then, incredibly, drop the single best broadcaster from their entire lineup. I wouldn't let this guy Dan Healy run a bath, never mind a national radio station.
