Breakfast with Ray (Foley) and Jay [Cork's Red FM, 6am-9am]

The Johnny Lyons bit was hilarious once again this morning. They have perfected that impression.

Whenever he comes on, thinking of JP's impression almost makes his updates bearable.:)

There's her Twitter anyways.

Stalk-tastic

Listening to the first few podcasts, you can see how the news & sport guys reactions change over time. They go from 'Well... Ray is it?' to "Howya lads!" to "Ahhhh Ray I LOVE that song! Play it!" pretty quickly. Is it that they like the lads or are their spirts just broken from Ray's constant interruptions of the news/weather with sound effects?

I'm liking the morning show anyway, I've yet to hear the impersonations of Johnny Lyons but I'm looking forward to it!

JP's Show & Tell was hilarious this morning! Only wish he did a full song rather than just a verse and chorus.

JamesReeves · 21-12-2012 10:42am

Did anyone hear the "end of world news " this morning. I thought it was hilarious

Fresh Pots · 21-12-2012 10:58am

Just caught the last 15 minutes of the show, who was the guy there with him?

Never knew his second name and I've been listening to The RF show since they began with Today FM

I didn't think there was anyone else there, but tbh I was half asleep so I stand to be corrected!

Theyve mention his name is Gilbourne several times!

Not been podcasts in a while. Anyone know when they are back on?

Probably 2nd of January I'd say. Open to corretion though as I haven't listened to the most recent podcast yet.

Don't live in Dublin but usually tune in around 8 on my way to work (followed them from Todayfm). Decent enough but not wild about the revival of DJ Jayo...

The calls to Santa were funny enough though, the guy in Kildare village sounded like he didn't realise what was going on...

The new intro theme for Jayo is great though. Over-the-top parody of dance music DJs.

I'd say it will be Monday.

Yeh I'm pretty certain whoever it was covering for them (can't remember who!) said they'd be back Monday.

Good to see that the replacement was that memorable!

Mornings haven't been the same since the New Year - looking forward to Monday.

Brian McColl was covering I think

When did the lads start their Christmas holiday? On my iTunes the show's podcasts stop around the twentieth of last month...

Last podcast was the 21st. I believe they worked Christmas eve, and had a pre-record show on Christmas Day.

Jason Todd · 06-01-2013 7:46pm

Not that I'd begrudge them the time off, but considering Foley has had time off with the birth of his son, then holidays not long after, then an extended break between leaving Today FM and joining 98fm I was disappointed to see them take more time off after Christmas, especially considering all the big hitters were back on Today FM for example. Not giving out about Foley, just missing the show is all!

If you had the chance, would you not do the same? It cant be easy coming up with stuff for 20 hours a week, every week.

Israel_Dagg · 06-01-2013 8:02pm

Why did Foley move to 98fm? And is it the same crowd with him and same stuff he does on 98fm as on TodayFm?

It makes sense for Breakfast Show hosts to take the full Christmas break. Audiences are well down until the schools are back. The lads are putting in some serious hours with early starts and they need to take a decent break every now and then.

Ah yeah, not saying that, what I suppose I'm saying is, I'm surprised they were given the chance for more time off in the first place. I suppose the fact they had time off in the old job doesn't (and shouldn't) impact the new job.

Yeah, that makes more sense to me. Even Ray D'Arcy and KC were joking that they were just filling time til' everyone came back to school/work etc.

He wanted to try something new.

Only JP. Ann and Adele are still at Today FM.

Sully · 06-01-2013 9:30pm

As per Facebook..

Hi All! We're back tomorrow morning from 6 on 98FM. If you've got a story from the Christmas break that you'd like to tell us about then e-mail ray@98fm.com. Chat to you tomorrow!

Is he getting more money on 98?

And does he still do the same stuff as on today fm? as in "the things we didn't get to cover"

Sully · 07-01-2013 1:17pm

I see Today FM brought back Nordie Eoin (sp?) for the KC Show.. Is he still on with Ray? Assume its to boost the show?
