That was one of the greatest merges of all time. If there was a DVD of the top 50 merges ever this one would be somewhere in the top 20.

The Muppets Happy Song was, I'm afraid, his salute to the station.

The station has changed direction.

New building. New direction. Seems like it would be a backward step for everyone. I'm sad to think.


Sadly I agree with you.

You've been warned. Stop dredging up old bollocks and then not really adding anything to it.

You'll get a reputation.

This is not a good thing. Ask Yuds.


I'm pretty sure Jay is Chris James. Can't prove it yet.

Sorry I'm very new to the site and I'm just getting used to it. And my name is Jay Etheridge.

I just want to apologise for my useless forum posting. I'm going to not say anything at all from now on unless I have something useful to say as it says in the forum rules. I appreciate the warning.

No, no, no. This wasn't what i was getting at. Post bollocks, post whatever crap comes to mind, flirt with breaking the rules. Just don't pull up dormant topics and then reiterate what has all ready been said. I post crap all the time. I just do it in the current topics. You're alright in my books wee Jay Etheridge (sp?). Just don't do the old woe is me and don't add to old bollocks. Simples really.

Chris Dave and Aled could do huge numbers podcasting, but if they charge I don't see it succeeding.
Only Gervais, Merchant & Pilkington, to the best of my knowledge, managed to pull charging for a podcast off because they were popular world wide.

Unless it was a podcast "brought to you by castrol gtx and Ginsters Pies". That type of advertising might work.

Gervais et al did not charge for their podcasts. They charged for their eBooks.

As I've pointed out several times, there are podcasters making millions of dollars and none of them charge. Paywalls do not work. Advertising works.

Advertising on podcasts is not nearly as intrusive as it is on the radio because you can skip the ads at the press of a button. You can't do that with radio.

I'm not so sure about that. I won't lie and will say that I only really listen to BBC podcasts (Chris Moyles show & The Infinate monkey cage) but from other podcasts that I have heard, The adverts are very much an intrusive part.

You can't fast-forward Capital FM. You can fast-forward a podcast. I never hear podcast ads. With Adam Carolla's show, I hit 2x and FF and never hear them. You soon get used to FFwding and hearing when they end.

My top 2 favourite subscribed podcasts are from either the smodcast or nerdist network. 3-6 minutes of pre podcast advertising. X2 and f.forward. Job done and no significant intrusion. What's on your podcast list?

Edit -
Bugger. Neil beat me.

Would judge on X-Factor be a possibility? They are reportedly looking to shake up the judging panel and he seems like a good fit

This is from an interview last year with the Mirror:

http://www.unrealitytv.co.uk/x-factor/c ... tor-judge/

Article what I linked to wrote:“What a gig that would be. I would bite Cowell’s arm off to do it. Has he asked me yet? No, but he should. I don’t think Simon is doing the next one, so I would quite happily replace him.


But that was 2 X-Factors ago. I think Shirtswinger was a bit rubbish this year.

I don't like Shirtslinger either. And Mrs DTJ REALLY hates her. Although I think they should keep 2 geezers and two fem-bots, so maybe CM could replace the increasingly irrelevant Lewis Welch.
