I used to like phone ins . Then I grew up.

At best , A mass gathering of the confidently incorrect and chronically unqualified. .

I am an anarchist in spirit - but after hearing the phone ins I ended up feeling a dictatorship is the only way to sort these people out, who are unable to think .

All very alienating.

You think Radio 2 is bad, try listening to Heart Dance for close to 45 hours a week.

Radio died on 26th March 2004 for me.

Biggedy Biggedy Bong.

Jeremy Vine realised that Jeremy Kyle was popular for being a bit obnoxious, and that people like Nigel Farage were popular for having outspoken opinions. He tries to emulate their style, but keeps it family friendly, and fails miserably.

He's desperate to be controversial and opinionated, but his shows concentrate on mediocre nonsense, and he's too 'soft' to have an actual controversial opinion.

(Soft isn't a great word, but I can't think of a better one right now, sorry.)

Don't resist listening to Radio 4. It's wonderful to tune in and listen to a documentary about something completely unexepcted. Radio Six Music is also a great station.

I don't think I've listened to the radio for music since I got an mp3 player about 20 years ago!

I gave up on all radio years ago when streaming music on phones became big. If I want something more talkative then I'll stream a podcast.

Radio 1/2/3/4/5/6/whatever, nah, Planet Rock every time!

I work 7 on/7 off so I let a week's worth of podcasts build up to get me through work. That also includes a weeks worth of James O'Brien. I don't bother with any other radio, too annoying.

I enjoy Sara Cox's evening drivetime show. I sometimes wish I didn't, but when you're doing yet another 4-hour slog up the M1/M6 in evening rush hour traffic it's perfect company.

And Zoe Ball can be OK in the mornings, although I'll often tune into something with a bit less chatter unless I'm feeling particularly enthusiastic. Other than those two shows, R2 doesn't really do it for me. And yes, Jeremy Vine is utterly off-putting.

Been listening to greatest hits since Simon mayo went there. They also have Ken Bruce. Best option. BBC radio is terrible these days.

I gave up on Radio 2 some time in the 80s I think. Hardly ever listen to broadcast radio now. I used to have Radio 4 on in the van at work but half an hour listening to sundry lying, evasive politicians and other self-important cunts in the morning tends to put a downer on the rest of your day.

Radio 4 is excellent in the morning and evening. I feel like anything between 14:15 (following The Archers) and 4pm is usually some really weird badly written drama
