Agreed. He's so bitter and so doom and gloom. Who needs that kind of negativity in the morning? His arrogance is alarming too. I have to turn over, I can't deal with everything being related to brexit. He's like a broken record.
I do like mystery hour when I can catch it though....
I guess he has his fanbase but I just don't get it. Never mind the morning, I can't listen to constant negativity period. Some presenters I don't always agree with but I don't usually mind if they're a pleasant listen. I wouldn't even like JOB's show if he shared my views. Always over to Mike Graham (except for when he gets Peter Hitchens on who I find equally as dour as JOB).
I am more Left than Right, but even I can't stand James O'Brien anymore. He used to be a great contrast to Nick Ferrari when he first started at LBC, now he has become bullish in his opinions and not always a pleasant listen.
That's all right, he is married (and living with his wife)
.........and this thread by the look of it. It's been 14 posts since talk on here was about anything different, and he isn't even on at weekends.
Caught over an hour of Payne, he seems to be morphing into a Steve Allen "lite" character, albeit Ian's more into sports related stuff.
Nearly an hour of the little things that annoy him...Bjorn Borg, Nadal picking his shorts out of his buttock cleavage
the flu, covid, shoddy breakfasts.

Missing Nick, hate it when they go off and have a life 
I tune in because he takes so many calls from all persuasions. Tom just waffles on about the same topic for ages or speaks to guests/ministers. Yawn.

When Steve Allen and Nick Ferrari leave, LBC won't be worth listening to imo.
The repetition does me in.
Yesterday I heard James doing wearing masks and the NHS getting the George Medal. At 1258 Shelagh pops up with 'and I'll covering wearing face masks and the NHS getting the George Medal' . I turned her off.
I'm missing my daily dose of Steve.

I don't think Steve will be that hard to replace - just need someone bitchy that also does irrelevant rambling.
Ferrari will be difficult to replace and they haven't got any tallent ready to take over, Tom won't do. But I doubt he'll retire, more likely he'll not be as capable as he gets older. Much like how the once great Andrew Neil has already needed a break after struggling with a nightly GB news show.

LBC = Leading Bias Confirmation
I'd be a perfect shoe in then

Ferrari would be very hard to replace. I'm not his biggest fan but I can appreciate what an asset he is to LBC. No one who covers seems to have the same energy or buzz.
Tom Swarbrick's so dull in Nick's slot this week, awful to listen to, very flat.
Tom's got duller the longer he's around. I wonder if someone told him to stop doing his working class voice thing on his evening show to trail nick breakfast show and he's stopped taking minor risks to be entertaining?
Absolutely dreadful. I’ve had to resort to GB news of a morning. I know it’s different for talk radio hosts and they can hold strong views, but not having an ounce of curiosity/genuine impartiality is so off-putting to listen to. I disagree with a lot of what Nick says but him and Maajid don’t need to live in echo chambers. TS, JOB, SF, Ian Payne etc. will constantly snipe about callers who didn’t agree with them throughout their shows, I can’t deal with the fragility
Maybe Stephen Nolan if they could poach him? They managed it with Eddie Mair.
Nolan wouldn't be nearly as right leaning as Ferrari though if that were to matter.
