The Chris Moyles Show with Zane Lowe


Computer

Recommended Posts

Not sure if I can cope with Zane first thing. Mind you, I probably wont surface till after 10 anyway............ ;)

ahh so you'll be waking up with Fearne and next door's ginger pussy?

which I mean she's obviously bound to talk about... :P

(or is someone also covering for her on Friday?)

Zane and Matt Smith absolutely nailed it.

And not a playlist in site!

I expect Zane to be the next R1 breakfast host when Moyles finally goes and a bloody good one at that.

Can't really see him going from his evening slot straight to Breakfast though... and he wouldn't really fit into a regular daytime slot.

I really don't as Zane doesn't like playing the playlist and has other things to do. Plus he's off for about a month every year and with Zane and Scott competing for amount of days off sick, the breakfast and Drivetime hosts would be off an awful lot together.

I really enjoyed the show this morning, but I think it should be a once in a blue moon thing. However, Zane is very witty and very funny. If he didn't mind going mainstream, I think he'd do a very successful show. I wonder whether Zane would want to though.

he's not doing a linkup with Jake Humphrey for Grand Prix coverage like Moyles usually does the Friday before a race this year... gutted.

Yeah kinda missed it... Don't see why Zane couldn't of done one, maybe it would of lacked the convo and laughs ?

Maybe Zane just ain't interested in F1, Moyles seems to have actually become a fan... (hopefully NOT one of those Gloryhunter Lewis Hamilton fans)

Zane is a small part of the F1 coverage on the BBC he has voiced over some introduction packages to the tracks so even if he is not a F1 fan it would have been nice to see him chat to Jake

Zane's show was just music then Matt Smith chat leading to the versus. Would have seemed a bit out of place to cut away for some F1 chat.

Anyway, I thought the show was excellent regardless. Really refreshing.

This is the difference between Moyles and Zane, Moyles has to interview all kinds of people and has to sound reasonably interested, whilst Zane is 100% music, obviously it was a one off show so he could have done it given he is a tiny part of the coverage but it's the reason he will never be a daytime DJ, can you imagine him interviewing Lewis Hamilton, Holly Willoughby, Louis Spence, Jason Manford, Jamie Oliver etc. and playing quiz shows like carpark catchprase and OWO and talking about what was on TV last night....which is mainly what you have to do to be on breakfast (or drive).

As for his holiday doesn't he has a month off every year which is less than Moyles albeit because he only works half as much as him.

About the show....Listened to bits of it on iplayer it was a great show, you got to respect what he's doing:)

    • For some reason there is 'Summer on Radio 1' listed on Sunday 2nd June, could this be replacing M&M until July?
    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg. 
    • They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!
    • How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it? 
    • I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!
    • A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.
    • He must be in his element. At Eurovision and a Gold award!
    • I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.     
    • So pleased for Scott on his best entertainment show win. As much as I miss his R1 style, he clearly puts so much into his shows, well deserved and it’s a big two fingers up to all the abuse he has had since joining R2
    • There are a lot that share your sentiments. People have made comparisons to the different takes to Ukraine. 
    • It's a big 'No' from me (Israel-Palestine). No further comments.
