Only listened to LBC for the past 20 minutes or so, James seems to be digging himself into holes, a constant daily cycle of doom, maniacal giggling at crap jokes, obsessing over the Daily Mail at every turn.
Very unhealthy
All that is missing for a pretty full James Bingo card is an attack on a successful woman.
 
Jimbo sounds deranged :oops:
I often wonder if he practices his painfully unfunny opening skits in front of a mirror before coming into the studio.

What a strange hour, only 3 calls, with a token 4th call squeezed in before the hour.
WE NEED MORE HATE!!!

It must be difficult but at least they can console themselves with a paycheck at the end of the week.

I feel more sorry for the people who hate James O'Brien yet listen to him obsessively (and don't get paid a penny for the torture they put themselves through) ;)

Just like the ones who hate but listen to Ferrari every morning without fail.

It's a strange world.

I don't much like Ferrari but I don't hate him either. I listen because there's a good spread of news stories and a variety of different voices. With James O'Brien you know you're going to get the same stuff for the whole hour. Why put yourself through it if you don't like it?

I absolutely agree with you. I know within the first 5 minutes whether it's a JOB kind of day.
 
The Boris/Privileges Committee denouement next week should be fun..

Tomorrow will be one to avoid, I think. Budget plus train strike woes.

They need to get someone fun to do the overnight slot (and weekends quite frankly). Nick abbot is apparently covering it next week.

Steve was just about the only thing still making me tune into lbc. Nick F has his moments now and again but it's very much take it or leave it these days.

Lbc was my number one speach radio, now it's down to number 4 and I rarely go thst far down the list.

If I wanted misery and gloom I'd read the guardian.

Same for me. What are your top 3? I liked putting LBC on to nod off to, I could just about tolerate Ian Payne chatting rubbish and wake up to Steve but I don’t bother with it now. Daytimes are a wasteland.
