Of all the times not mention capital it's probably now? Jordan is flying on breakfast with chris & sian and there's a presenter on friday and saturday that doesn't know who a main r1 artist, tldp are. Mentions capital which surely has to be a big no no given recent events and then says the licence fee goes to me. Talk about vom.
We can't have it on here no more as it's that unlistenable and I'm about to switch back for m&m, but this is a Maya Jama x50 level mess of a show.
Forget fading the microphone down, the entire show needs fading down
I thought the same to that comment, the license fee is going on me babes

What with Jamie Laing, now him. Is it time for a new Head of the station?
-
He also just said coming up we have brand new segment, I thought they were a band how did this man get on Radio 1? Aled needs his head testing. It’s an insult people who deserve to be on the radio
-
How he was just faded out at the end of the link reminded me of the Oscars music fading you out

What a nightmare link at 11.15am this morning. Spent 30 seconds waffling about the name of The Last Dinner Party as if he’d never heard it before, then started mentioning Capital and the license fee, and how it’s been used to pay for him to be there, and was then cut off by the start of the next song.
You’re welcome

Haven’t warmed to Jordan on Capital, generally still listening to Greg
-
Is it just me or is Dean always off?
-
Also, do you not think Chris Stark has matured? He’s nothing like he was with Scott!

I don't know why but Capital sounds like Radio 1 Lite now. Capital Breakfast now sounds like it's trying to be Radio 1 Breakfast especially with that intro. It's odd. I preferer the slick production that Capital had before. It had more impact and sounded modern and original.
The show is new and is showing off but after the first month it will be interesting to see how it goes. Jordan is playing it so safe at the moment which is understandable but the worry is that's his new Capital style. While I like the team I prefer Jordan and Katie.
I did give Capital ago but as of 7am I was back listening to Greg this morning. Radio 1 needs a better early breakfast lead in because that what will catch them out to Capital.
I liked Vick and Jordan, Jordan has so many different settings . I do hope he will get back to the Jordan we all know and love soon. Although, I guess it’s a bit like when Scott went to 2, he was different to how he was on Radio 1. Although, Moyles has remained the same whichever station he’s on.

It’s definitely all much slicker and more corporate but hints of the old them which might emerge when show is less busy than today.
I hope so, I listened to the whole show. It just seemed like a different Jordan but as you say it was a busy show.

It’s a different Jordan North to Vick and Jordan and Chris has matured since Radio 1 hasn’t he?!

His voice grates on me like a naff cheese grater.

It’s not necessarily the fact that Jamie is posh. It’s that the show seems to be really keen to play on it. Within 10 minutes of their first show they were playing voice notes from his Celeb mates. Compare that to Vick and Jordan’s first week in September 2021; their first links were about Jordan’s awkward encounter with his plumber and Vick slapping a roast chicken.
And then on Monday this week, Jamie is sulking (exaggerated sulking admittedly) about something, this ultimately being that another of his celeb mates has cancelled his appearance on their show, and they’re literally reading out texts such as ‘I’m sure this is going to be relatable to the entire population.’
But he is posh, the opposite to Jordan. Not down to earth. You’re right, the show does play on it. If I’m honest, I stopped listening to Going Home, the day Laing started. Sam and Danni were better.

Dean in for Greg on Tuesday.
That’s a last minute change!

Jordan, Greg, they’re down to earth. That’s what makes them resonate so much with listeners.

One of the things that made Jordan so popular was he sounded like the mate you go for a pint with who always has a great story to tell.

This has to be a joke right. This is so Scott Mills
-
This shouldn’t even be a post. Jordan’s sexuality his business and his business only.
-
Yes, April 24. It’s on his X bio
-
How long is Scott off for, is he getting married?
-
Jordan didn’t fancy Vick haha. I actually disagree, they were great together

The shows surely being driven for him so all he has to do is talk between the tracks and he can’t get even get that right
