New thread, Steve is still off the air but has posted a couple of times on social media
He'd be a lot better suited to Boom Radio I think. He could still do a lot of chat and throw in the odd song.It's where Paul O'Grady was heading.If Steve is to make it to 70 he'll need to get back on the air ASAP
Have talk radio or GB news spoken about him? Would he really take a pay off to not join a rival? I'd of thought having a job would be more important to him than money.
I wonder how the LBC listening figures have been affected?We all moaned about Steve from time to time. I haven't listened to Iain Payne once since he took over.
They seem all over the place now. I saw them on a clip of Marr and one of Shelagh. They're really distracting.Afternoon all. Been busy, so just made it here !
At the end of the last page there was the question about the banner on James' cliips. Is it happening on all clips? It is subtitles which I gratefully receive! Sometimes I find the voice not loud enough to hear, even when my speaker volume is turned up. Some people do not speak clearly!

He's off his meds today. Click off.

That's a good racket that line of work, always a sucker out there and coin to be made. Bloke is 'orrible, no wonder he sympathizes with Prince Harry ... rich people love telling poor people how to think and how to live their lives don't they. Ugh.Jimbo actually sees himself as some sort of healer/guide/guru.

It was just a really sad way for someone who had been part of the station since the year dot to go. I can perfectly understand LBC wanting a more topical pre-breakfast show in keeping with the rest of the station and I'm enjoying Ian's programme, but Steve's lighter format would have worked really well at weekends and bank holidays. I sincerely hope Steve is OK. As others have said the job seemed to be his life, to lose it so suddenly must have been a massive blow to him.I have to admit, I do miss Steve in the morning. Yes I know I used to moan about things like the one sided producer chat and hearing the same stories over and over again but as he said himself, he is "light ent" and he could be quite funny. Ian "I don't know" Payne is out of his depth with topical issues and he makes so many gaffes. Like this morning when speaking to Danni Hewson and she was reporting re Royal Mail and warning they could be going into administration and Ian butted in about how bad they treated all the Post Office workers who were wrongly accused of fraud. It was nothing to do with Royal Mail as it was the Post Office. And as for him constantly reading out the telephone number every other sentence, I eventually have to switch off.
Too long, didn't read.BTW What is a TLDR ?
