    Would like to see Susan Keogh get a show that’s not buried in the early morning of a weekend. They should give her a decent chunk of the weekend morning so we don’t have to endure that “Home Show” nonsense or Vincent Wall’s drawn out segment.

    Yeah, that Home Show is awful drivel altogether. Have it as a podcast, fair enough, but I can't believe its actually on national radio

    I'm pretty much done with Newstalk now with these changes. I'll listen to a bit of Pat Kenny but lunchtime live is now just liveline on a different channel..
    I can't listen to Ciara Kelly any more,.
    It looks like Newstalk is becoming more talk less news...

    Many shows have morphed into a "let's throw open the lines to listeners to talk about stuff" type show.
    If I wanted to listen to opinions of the great unwashed I'd tune into Joe.

    It’s incredible that they incorporated that into the “breakfast” show. It’s bad enough in the afternoon but in the morning it’s criminal.

    Listened to Cuddihy the last two days. Never again. It's like a FG Party Political Broadcast, woeful stuff.

    Ciara isn't annoying me as much as I thought she would, I liked Ciaran on the breakfast show, just can't fill Ivans shoes, I've been switching to drive time.

    As a side Simon Harris was on breakfast this morning, whatever your party politics, he is an excellent communicator, you could tell he knew the brief, was able to answer about other government issues. MM needs to get a few comms lessons off him, even to blag it!
