You Know Youre Getting Old When...

...you get into the car, turn off radio one, turn on smooth fm and start singing along to Dionne Warwick, Heartbreaker and know all the words for some crazy reason.

 

And then have a discussion with yourself about whether its pronounced war-wick or worrick.

 

I'm not even 32 yet ffs!

Xfm or Radio 4 here, and I record Radio 7 to listen to in the car sometimes.

Is a radio similar to a wireless :whistle:

Radio 8..... it's the future. ;)

Smooth for this owd timer, although I've got my Motown CD's playing at the moment :good:

 

The strangest rocker in town.

Still miss Mark N Lard and John Peel before R1 started dumbing down and playing all that rap shite.

FUCK WRAP

Before rad 1 we didn't have a lot of choices apart from radio caroline and luxumburg, now how many can remember them?

Remember being in Queens park as a teenager listening to Johm Peel on the radio, very flower power stuff and anti establishment, new music being played, didn't like the new type of digitilsed mowtown stuff but went with English home grown talent..Pink Floyd The move, the who Hendrix, Cream loads more, still would sooner listen to any of that than any of this carp they put out now as music.

mark radcliffes best radio was cures for insomnia on picadilly

Tower FM top 9 at 9, Rock FM top 10 at 10, and if I sus the year out early it's Radio2 for Quizmaster at 10.25ish. Seriously though, radio is missing Tommy Vance and Fluff Freeman, Not Arf Pop-Pickers :)

yesterday morning sat in that crazy traffic (2.5 hours to travel my usual 15 min journey), i caught the 1st 30mins of cock fm's top 10 at 10.

 

1st time in a long time, and thoroughly enjoyed it. proper music from early 90's. IMO

Have you listened to John Peel's son on R6? Tom Ravenscroft I think he's called. Haven't heard one of his shows yet but I'm curious to hear what he's like on air. Also, Jarvis Cocker isn't a bad listen on the same channel.

 

Mark and Lard were two of the most consistantly funny double acts in broadcasting. Anyone who can get away with American sports reporters Butch Schlong and Snatch Friggit from the studio of W.A.N.K. Cinncinati featuring live reports of the ball game between the Philidelphia Felchers and the New York Gloryhole's at 1.30 in the afternoon on Radio 1 has got to be worth their wages.

 

Incidently, Chris Moyles is a tool!

absolutely nothing wrong with Smooth, I have listened to that for years and Ive not hit 30 yet!

And not forgetting the Dallas Dirtboxes vs Cincinatti Muffdivers.

 

Their pisstake of American Sports Broadcasting, was scarily real

Radio 2 & Talksport for this 29 year old.

 

Chris Moyles makes me wanna drive straight into a oncoming artic lorry! not so much Moyles but his gimps that do my head in, the newsreader, the camp little producer and 'comedy' dave - who ironically has never said anything funny, ever.

isn't that kinda the point in his name?

Ok ,if we're going down the music route .......

you know you're getting older when you can remember rolling in at stupid o'clock and watching Hitman and Her, you younger one's definitely don't know what you missed with this programme,it really was unique :good:

I was listening to him the other day on Radio 4, and as expected, he sounds just like his dad.

Genuinely

 

That's the funniest thing I've read in ages. It's shit, but I'm still giggling like a child after 10 minutes

Got to agree Spider it was funny, keep having a little chuckle every few mins.
