Dotun Adebayo on 5Live

Without doubt it's Dotun Bleedin' Adebayo!
I have managed to find the cure for the misery though - if you like to listen to chat on the radio in bed at night as you drop off to sleep, buy yourself a Roberts 3-band Sports radio and you will never again have to suffer the drone of Adebayo, as the Roberts is powerful enough to pick up TalkSport. Since purchasing a Roberts just before last Christmas, I'm delighted to say I have not had to suffer Adebayo for one second since. Yippee! |

Can't make my mind up between max rushden or weekend breakfast on talksport with Georgie Bingham and Micky Quinn. Their attempts at humour and light hearted banter and features are absolutely awful.

The entire Talksport collective and their single mandate of "change your view every other day to keep the ill-educated fools ringing in".

Jo Whiley.Waffling drivel. never ever listen to Mary Ann Hobbs on Radio 6. |

Steve Allen LBC radio 4am-6.30am Mon to Fri.This bloke loves the sound of his own voice so much he could eat himself.Bangs on every morning about how $hit Peter Andre is and how fat Gemma out of t.o.w.i.e is.His latest pet word is "spike".He never tires of telling the listener how at 4am the radio station "spikes"when he takes to the airwaves.Refuses to take calls because he can't stand criticism and basically drones on and on about nothing in particular,interspersed by self congratulatory e mails and twitter comments from some old Doris on the balls pond rd.
P.s. Chris Evans is a sht/hd behind Allen. |

LBC goes national from Tuesday

Dotun Adebayo, Radio 5 late night.
|
|
By:
It's a tough market.
Adebayo is indeed a cretin. Alan Green is by rote a whiner and a bully but doesn't present anymore, only 'commentatates' (for want of a better word) and can be good on rowing and golf when his ego subsides. Chris Evans is unbearable when pushing his godawful 'Carfest' but on 5 Live, Richard Bacon truly boils my p1ss. |

I don't like Talksport either Tommy, I have started to listen to the World Service after Radio4 ends it really is good and covers all subjects.
|

By:
There's some right Herberts on TalkSport, BB, but I'd rather listen to them than Adebayo.
I don't really want to listen to anything too interesting in the early hours of the morning. I just like having the radio on very low, with chat on, so it sends me to sleep. When Rhod Sharp is on (especially when he's with Dr Karl) I sometimes find stuff so interesting that I turn the radio up just to listen - which isn't what I'm trying to achieve! So, I reckon if I listened to the world service it'd produce the same thing. I'll stick with the Herberts! |
|
By:
you'd like it Tommy it's very educational and for the expats they do a live commentary on a Premier game every week
|
|
By:
No matter how low I'd have Adebayo on (so I could barely hear the idiot) he'd still say things that would annoy me so much I'd end up ranting and cursing at him - which is not sleep inducing at all!
I've even slept on the sofa at times, specifically not to hear him: "Oh Christ, it's Saturday night. I just can't bear the thought of going to bed and listening to that idiot tonight" |
|
By:
Sounds good, BB.
|
|
By:
I guess there's a reason why he's on from 1-5! Not heard him though, usually asleep by 12:30
|

By:
You're a lucky man Nick!
|
|
By:
Stephen Nolan sometimes irritates me with his long pauses when a caller has finished speaking
|
|
By:
Nick, Adebayo doesn't do that - he's so busy trying to make one of his turgid comments, or his appalling jokes (which he repeats about 3 times over because no one ever laughs, so he thinks they haven't heard) that few people get chance to speak.
|
|
By:
There too many bad presenters,e.g Rachel Burden, Victoria Derbyshire and Richard Bacon from (radio 5 live). Collin Murray, Alan Brazil, Andy Goldstein (talksport)
|
|
By:
Tons of stations can be streamed from the internet with no chat.The way to go imho.

sheila fogarty radio 5 at lunchtimes. just about clueless on everything
|
|
By:
the fellow on tonight l.b.c at 10.00 till 1.00 useless and very boring
|
|
By:
Dotun Adebayo (nap) as previously mentioned.
Close behind are Ricahrd Bacon, Victoria Derbyshire. Used to love the late night 5 live show that Tony Livesey did |
|
By:
Said earlier, but that er, Georgie, um, Bingham, er, at the weekend is truly awful.
|
|
By:
John Gaunt, absolutely bloody awful, egotist and all round tw@t who's mo was to ridicule those who disagreed with him and to brag about his time when he promoted The Specials. Did he ever tell you how he went bankrupt, then got back on his feet? YES! A fudging million times. A horrible little Englander who wasn't fit to lace the boots of the great Mike Dicken.

Evans used to be a complete tool but he's mellowed and I like him. Top bloke too.

I appreciate I may be alone in this, but I quite like Colin Murray's talksport programme. The format works better for him than motd2.
|

By:
Clearly everyone is too sensible to listen to Radio 1!
 I have no problem whatsoever with Bacon. I think that he's quite good. Derbyshire is perfectly adequate (can get a bit sanctimonious though). The two real shockers for me are Jo Whiley and Jeremy Vine. I actually quite liked Colin Murray on Radio 1's late night show, but he was terrible on MotD and Fighting Talk. |
