Yep he was irritating, just listened back to it. The one thing he did that makes me wanna hammer him into the ground is referring to his car as a K A, its a Ka (c-aaah). Moronic idiots like that really really make me wanna hit them argh!!!

Not impressed with censorship

Hello,

I saw the thread, so I thought I ought to defend myself. I'm sorry you all think I was irritating, but the truth is that the occasion overwhelmed me! I like the show a bit too much, and was really nervous. If you think I'm annoying, then fair enough- I'm not gonna win everyone over. Just remember that I'm only 19, so I'm not as experienced in life as other people. I am going to get excited when I speak to famous people (especially someone like Chris, who is a big influence in my life) , and I am going to find a lot of things funny. On Monday I just panicked a bit too much because I was on Radio 1 for the first time, and I'm lucky Chris let me have another go today.

And my mum always used to call the car a K A, so its only because of her that pronounce it that way.

Ahh! Adam you are clearly a very nice bloke and you came across much better today, fair play to you for coming on here and sticking up for yourself. I apologise for calling you a prat when all you were doing was having fun on the radio, that wasn't nice, I take that back entirely. Good luck on the show tomorrow, enjoy it as you're the envy of many on here including me!

And as for the KA debate, I drive a Ford KA and have worked for Ford Motor Company on and off for the last few years. All Ford staff refer to the cars as K.A's, not Cahh's so you're entirely right.

Nah, it's ok mate- I really didn't mean to act like such an arse on Monday!

Thanks for wishing me luck too- I'll do my very best to win, although if I don't, then that's ok too because it's been a dream of mine for many years to get the chance to speak to the team, and I'm grateful for that opportunity! =)

A dream of mine to, I think like you I love the show that bit too much and would love the oppurtunity to speak to them. I think Chris and the team are really warming to you though based on today, so enjoy it!

Say no more! Seriously, good luck tomorrow! Sooner have someone like you on than a mono-tonal boring idiot.

Oh god totally agreed. I'd rather have a caller who sounds like he's had too many blue Smarties like Adam on a show I was presenting rather than someone who's just a bit dull like the other chap!

Why is this never on the podcasts? Why doesn't Moyles do a daily podcast like Scott?

Because he does a weekly 1 and CPC only sometimes appears on it if there was a really dumb player or it was very funny. He may appear on it if they choose to

Yeah! I guess I didn't do too badly- I didn't get a single question wrong! ;)

Aww, I hope you're right, Stig! It'd be great to think they might like me!

And as a fan of the Moyles show, I too wouldn't mind a daily podcast... but it might get hard to keep up with downloading and listening to all of them after a while! =)

    • I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right! 
    • Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!
    • Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.
    • If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.
    • The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!
    • What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.
    • Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky as well that day.
    • So the end of weekend afternoons this week - new show is July 1st.
    • Arielle is in for Greg on Monday 27th May.
    • He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard! 
    • The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.  
    • I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly. 
    • Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...
    • Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
