To those wondering I can now confirm that Nick Grimshaw does have a podcast which is likely to appear this Friday here. I'm presuming it will be a weekly podcast like The Chris Moyles Show.

Yes, I'm quite happy about that!

Greg James is off to Africa for Comic Relief. Read it here, r1newspost.wordpress.com.

Will anyone be uploading Grimmy's Breakfast Show Free Download to Unofficial Mills?

I can listen to the whole daily show on iplayer but it isn't available in Australia as a podcast for some reason to do with rights :( and also I don't have 3 hours a day to put aside to listen :)

Is it going to be called the Radio 1D breakfast show? I've stopped listening.

I have no idea what is wrong with you. It was just a 10 minute chat before Grimmy's Big Thing with a member of 1D every day. What's wrong with it? When Moyles were talking with Cheryl Cole for an hour or something you haven't said "hahahaha Radio Cheryl Cole breakfast show hahahahaha". But it's not Moyles, it's Grimshaw, I think that's the problem for you.

Ill tell you what's wrong with me, I don't like something. Shock fucking horror.

and one direction are hosting a whole bloody day. Radio 1 got into trouble for the U2 thing, I have no idea how they can get away with the 1D orgy Nick Grimshaw and Ben Copper are currently orchestrating for radio 1 listeners.

Maybe because 1D are in the age bracket

It's a niche part of the age bracket. 15-29, I'm not sure how many over 18s are fussed, let alone over 20s. They're (pretty much) ignoring half of their youngest audience anyway - not many teenage boys wish to here about 1D, every day. and ALL day at the teen awards.

Just listened to the podcast and I wasn't mad on it, it needs less guests more banter with Nick and the team and his anecdotes and the Quiz! If you look at this week they could have scrapped all the 1D calls, Louis Smith & Bieber who were all quite dull. Emma Watson, Matt Smith, Example and Pro Green were all fairly interesting though but I suppose it's all subjective. Surprised Alicia Keys wasn't on it maybe she'll be on next weeks.

Yes, I feel they are alienating the rest of their audience. Personally except Scott I haven't listened to Radio 1 at all since the last Chris Moyles Show.

Alicia wasnt on it as the podcast came out on Thursday and she was on air on Friday.

I was actaully suprised they didnt have the banter on their between him, Fincham, Ian and Fiona. I actually think that is Nick's strongest part!

    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now 
    • Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday. 
    • As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
    • Going Home presenters have done the last few years ?
    • Nat and Vicky are being sent to Ibiza this year. They’ll be live on Friday 1st August from 1-4pm.     
    • Since Radio 1 Dance and Anthems have been allowed to broadcast on DAB, do we think they’ll be a proper schedule of shows like on Radio 1 Dance with the morning show and Dance Anthems at drive time. Maybe Lauren Redfern, Tyler Selby, Chrissy Cameron or Matt Hallsworth will be scheduled on named shows like Hits Radio 00s or Capital Anthems rather than the generic ‘Radio 1 Anthems’ show. Obviously it would probably cost more to produce actual shows on the station however.
    • There's been a lot of positive reaction to the Mylo and Rosie news so am interested now to hear what their shows are like. And yep wouldn't be surprised if they stay on beyond July as cover ever so often. And that Friday-Sunday news was hidden in the small print a little. It presumably means we lose Party Anthems all that month as that is what has happened this year with Big Weekend, Glasto for example. I certainly I hope it isn't Party Anthems being quietly axed full stop - it and Future Pop are 2 real hidden gems on Radio 1. 
    • I’m pleased for Mylo and Rosie, they were highly thought of in our local area and definitely worthy of that slot 
    • I’m thinking the same redding and Leeds etc 
    • -Considering how little Jamie has appeared since Vick went off on maternity, it probably would've been more sensible to have Sam & Danni taking over from that point and have him return with Katie. - Mylo and Rosie are apparently very good and one of the more popular local presenters who lost their slot when Hits went fully national. I gather they are very popular in Yorkshire. I can see them definitely see them popping up again beyond this stint. -Life Hacks cover is yet another good opportunity for some new voices (I know Yinka has popped up in the past). I have enjoyed Pete Allison covering though. I'm assuming most of August's Friday to Sunday 1-4pm will be made up of festival coverage.
