I can't wait to hear the Green Day record again.

Sounded good earlier on Edith's show. But it's supposedly out right now on iTunes. But it isn't! I'm really confused. Apparently it's out everywhere else tomorrow?

Every Green Day fan is going mad on forums and is confused.

Reminds me of 'Waiting For A Star To Fall'. That was much better.

This is random...

A bus driver was sacked from her job after reportedly stopping her double decker to remove a frog from the road.

Christina Pommerel said that management at German bus company RBO had advised her to simply drive over the creatures in the future following a passenger complaint.

Bosses then apparently sacked the 46-year-old when she said that her conscience would not allow her to. "It was in the middle of the road so I slowed down and put on the hazard flashers. Then I climbed out and put the frog in a box so I could take it to the side of the road and let it free," Pommerel explained.

"They [management] told me I should have squashed the frog and not stopped. When I said I couldn't do that I was fired."

Pommerel, who is originally from France, had been working for the company in Regensburg for 13 years before she was sacked.

"Know Your Enemy" is the first single from Green Day's eighth studio album, 21st Century Breakdown[1], which was released on April 16th, 2009 from Reprise Records.[2] Although the song is not currently on the site, or iTunes.

Yeah I'm rather confused about that. It's probably out in America but not so sure about here. Not that fussed I guess but I wanted to listen back to it after hearing it on Edith's show.

'Cor Calvin Harris is Number 1 yet he still seems to be moaning.

He's gone a bit bonkers recently actually:

I'VE BEEN REBORN WITH THE SPIRIT OF JOHN LENNON TRAPPED INSIDE MY BRAIN IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME YOU ARE NOT A BELIEVER AND FUCK OFF

If Scott's in charge we'll be in for a wait as he'll be relying on Beccy ;)

Greenday fans have a forum?! Oh what sad little lives they lead!

You should see the Green Day Guru who does YouTube videos ;) He looks like you but just speaks American ;)

That was pretty clean, I think I might just chop that out :P

    • Bank Holiday Monday Schedule 6am-10am: Arielle Free in for Greg 10am-2pm: Dean & Vicky (No Rickie, Melvin & Charlie) 2pm-6pm: Vick & Jamie (No Katie) 6pm onwards: As normal.
    • Dare I say they've sounded great this past week?  Very much gelling.  Maybe less pressure?  Seem to be having a genuinely good time and not forcing things.
    • I'm in the minority in my workplace, most of them love country music.  Me, the American, does not care for it.  That said, I haven't haaaaaated some of the country adjacent stuff that's been on the R1 playlist.  
    • The Eurovision semi finals are on from 8 to 10pm on Tuesday 7th and Thursday 9th May with Richie Anderson. That means Sara Cox in on till 8 on those days.  Saturday 11th May is Eurovision 'Super Saturday... 1-3pm Your Ultimate Abba song with Gary Davies  3-6pm Michelle Visage's Eurovision All Stars 6-8pm Eurovision Request Party with Owain Wynn Evans 8pm Eurovision Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan Clark  
    • It is funny because everyone thought Matt was on the way out, now he's been described as the heir to Mills.
    • Some similar names to Big Weekend.  Sabrina Carpenter, David Guetta, Perrie, Bradley Simpson, Jax Jones, Caity Baser, Benson Boone, Rudimental. David Guetta is a good name. 
    • Still Scott for me. I'm not too much into the 70s and 80s radio 2 play but do love the injection of 90s and 00s. Then Radio 2 push for all this country stuff and it not a UK thing, and I frankly don't like it. Scott's show as in features, hit and miss. I like the music police bit, but it feels like someone needs to join him. It's a shame Chappers is so busy with sports, as it feels like it could do with someone like him jumping on to help. Or a new partner. Radio 1, take or leave. Matt and Mollie are OK from what I've heard and share a good connection, but it's the playlist that throws me off. They could bring back Chris Moyles to do that show, but as soon as something like Headie One comes on with that casino keyboard produced crap. It would still be switched off from me. 
    • Reading through this thread, I don't feel quite so alone now, in thinking that Scott Mills on R2 is not a good 'fit' (even less so than on R5).  I can't quite explain why this is so - I just know it to be so.
    • Arielle has been on holiday for the last 2 weeks getting married / honeymoon.  It'll be live from this week onwards.
    • CassKidd is in for Sian on Sunday 5th May.
    • The brought to tiers feature was also very good from them. I did wonder which DJ's were going to get picked out of the hat, that could have gone one way or the other and the caller said they were very opinionated lol. Correct decision putting katie in god tier!
    • The extended Dua Lipa track from M&M was very funny. I'm hoping Matt and Mollie and Scott have a good relationship a bit like Greg and Zoe collaborate on-air sometimes.
    • Gary Davies in for Vernon Kay tomorrow (Monday 29th April).
    • When Scott and Chris announced their departure from R1, I remember there was lots of speculation about who would take over the 1pm slot. Matt and Mollie were talked about a lot on here, and at the time I really didn't rate them as a replacement. A few years on, I see that I was totally wrong. They are such a good pairing, and it's the same kind of duo as Scott and Chris, in that they are real life friends, who spend time together in their real lives, which really does come across on air. True friends having a laugh together, and everyone is invited is how it feels to me now. I never thought about it before, but I agree with @coffeeandgin that Mollie is the Scott of the duo - pop obsessed and maybe a litte ditsy, but so funny, and in need of someone to anchor to or bounce off.  It seems that Matt is the kind of Chris of the duo then in that comparison, the one with the ideas, but also needs another person to make the magic happen. I know I'm outside of the R1 demographic, and maybe Dean and Vicky were meant to be younger and fresher, but I'm sure in my younger years I would have preferred to listen to two people who had a genuine connection and could really make each other laugh, as well as have the listeners laugh along. That was the Scott and Chris factor for me, and I think the only pair that come close to that now are Matt and Mollie.
