I'm generally ok with the music that's on it, but the presenters man.
I don't want to listen to Jeremy Vine talking about "middle ground" on settled issues to rile up Daily-Mail readers so they phone in and froth.

The only thing it really has going for it is the music playlist, as it does tend to flow well with the day.

Radio 3 and 4 with the grown ups is becoming more and more my jam.

    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.)
