Isegrim 10027 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I find them pretty weird. I was listening to those of George Galloway and James Whale on Talksport recently. I don't know what is worse, giving such egomaniacs air time to let them randomly abuse people ("I am not talking to you, you are too stupid", "You are an idiot" etc.) or those people who in fact are daft enough to call in.

Whale in particular is blatantly on the wind-up. That doesn't make the show any easier to listen to, I grant you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that these programmes don't exist in Germany may explain their apparent lack of cynicism, or Isegrim might just be keeping it all for himself.

He used to do the late night phone-in on Metro Radio up here years ago but I can't remember him from that. That Northern Irish fella (Stephen Nolan?) on Radio 5 isn't much better. Like a watered-down version of Whale tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 47228 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Whale is such a prick. I wouldn't mind if he actually held the opinions that he comes out with on the show, but it's all just a boring sham and these idiots ring in all wound up just ready for him to make them look stupid and then cut them off when he's bored with them. Now THAT'S entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 You've got to take James Whale with a pinch of salt, I quite enjoy listening to him on the basis he is on a wind up and he's just trying to get people to ring in and rant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, after some research, it's definitely not the same guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
