Chris Evans — lovely lovely lovely

IF you are considering giving Chris Evans a go on your podcast, but are put off by the kiddy lettering in his titles, just get over yourself and shove that man onto your iPodster.
The great thing about Mr Evans is that you never have a clue what he is going to say next. He's like that guy in Date Movie who is going to marry Fat/Thin Buffy Girl and says the funniest (most inappropriate) things. Last week, he got Suggs - who I would normally rate a zero - to come out with funny stories about his drummer being thick and stuff. Chris Evans is class in a glass - give him a go.

Bad jock

The fact that this guy is considered one of the best radio presenters in the uk just shows how good Irish presenters are he's not funny not witty and seems to alienate his own staff to the point that it's akward listenting go back to TGIF wit will

Mr Dodgy Dave ,

fantastic bite sized bits

This is a great show - 30 minutes of fast paced fun which is just long enough to let you walk down to the chipper and back and wait in line for a few minutes. All the old "hanger on" type folk like the old days of his breakfast show are there and he seems to have got better with age. recommeded
