Please please please stop making me so sick

Why does Steve Wright insist on reading out the most outrageously “pro” Steve Wright letters – always.

 

I’ve just heard him read out the most gut wrenching letter from “a student” claiming to have never listened to the Big Show before; and so Steve reads in the most sincere voice he can muster:

 

“I’ve never listened to your show before but I am really really enjoying it, thank you to everyone involved for producing such great shows for us students”

 

(or words to that effect, to be honest I was too busy cringing to get the quote verbatim)

 

Anyway, it isn’t necessary Steve – unless of course you realise how pants your show is and feel it constantly needs bigging up.

 

I was listening to Jeremy Vine earlier today about flag waving – the whole “should we, shouldn’t we” debate. Anyway the comment was made by Mathew Parish that actually if you’re a confident and secure nation you don't need to constantly ram you flag down people’s throats to show how great you are, and the same is true for radio shows.

 

If you do manage to attract some poor delusional folk who think you’re show is so wonderful they are compelled to write in to tell you, you are not obliged to read it out to prive that people may like you no-one else does it.

 

Please Please Please STOP!!

Okay, Steve Wright's a bleeding mind reader now

So, here we are listening to another vomit-inducing sycophantic interview with Michael Ball when Steve Wright said

"now I remember when you came in here to talk about this [Hairspray] before it was a hit and I sense, although you didn’t say it, that you thought it was going to be a hit"

HOLD THE PHONE!

Are you saying that you not only have the ability to read minds, but you’re now trying to take credit on being so good at this that you can pick up on someone else’s feeling that a show yet to be launched will be a hit.

You might as well say

"Hey, I’m so good at interviewing that I knew that you knew it was going to be a hit, even though you didn’t say it, I knew it – that’s how good I am"

Give us a break...

Is there anything more certain than this.

That the very first words utters by Steve Wright on his show this afternoon just reinforced everything I hate about him. It doesn’t matter what he said, or that it was a truely pant imitation of Mick Jagger, what matters is that just one word from him is enough to make me think "Oh god, I’ve got 3 hours of this now :-("

Steve Wright has been taken off the air .. oh hang on, no he hasn't :-(

How very disappointing that was. I’ve been on the phone most of the afternoon so mercifully I’ve been spared too much of Messrs Wright & Smith and The Veggie – actually I did manage to catch a self-righteous monologue about broccoli and purple-sprouting, which was good because let’s face it, we’re all such luddites on the vegetable front that it takes a brain dead ex-backing signer to tell us about such things don’t it *sniff* ?

Anyway, having missed most of the Big Show I un-muted the radio and without realising it, I found myself singing along to ‘Who Are You?’, one of my favourite Who tracks. It took a little while to dawn on me but I realised it was only 4:30pm and I was enjoying the music being played on radio 2 – surely there can only be one conclusion Steve Wright has been taken off the air!

Wow, I was so excited but it was short lived, before long I was being bombarded with the usual tripe and verbal dysentery – and then to really stick the knife in Graham Norton came on as a guest – how pants is that? :-(

Is there now just cause for enforced sterilisation?

As commented on my previous post, Steve Wright has done it again, he managed to find a listener to stroke is crumbling ego (read the comment here for details).

But can you believe it?

Not so much that Steve Wright continues to meet all expectations and big himself up - we all know he has to do that to keep stroking himself, but that someone would willingly go on air to the nation and say that they thought the Big Show and Saturday Love Songs are the best two programmes on the radio - OH MY GOD!

I listened very carefully and there does not appear to be any sign of duress, no strain in their voice and no apparent indication that they were being held at gun point, or being tortured in anyway – but why else would someone choose to say something like that – why?

Please tell me they've been sterilised, the thought that people like this could be adding to the population of this country is too scary, way too scary.

Put the debate for euthanasia on hold until we stop any more of the brain-dead population from increasing their number.

Nirvana meets Steve Wright - has the world come to and end?

I wonder if there is a new researcher, producer or some other back-room hand that has joined the Steve Wright team? How else would a Nirvana track make it onto the play list?

 

Has the maestro (the car, not an Italian Master) forgotten who is target audience is? Surely he cannot forget he’s made his living from playing crap antiseptic music to an audience with all the musicality of the common slow worm.

 

Surely not Nirvana?

Steve Wright - Name Dropper Extraordinaire

So our man Steve Wright is interviewing a guest today – and during the introduction he mentioned that the guest had won a Sony award

 

“Ah” says Steve Wright, “I wondered where I’d seen you before, it was at the Sony’s”

 

Can he be any more sad and blatant in his name dropping?

 

And in doing so, is he not demonstrating that he knows how bad he is, so he has to try to big himself up?

The quality of the willing listener is a benchmark for the quality of the show

This point cannot be proven more clearly that just now with some bint sending in her golden oldies that starts with "An octopusses garden" - OH MY GOD, what's wrong with these people. You can spot them a mile away as they say vacuous things like:

"I hope you enjoy listening to these as much as we enjoyed comiling the list"

For crying out load - how much enjoyment can you get from compiling a list of 3 songs! Leyt alone a list that starts with thsat pathetic song!

Steve Wright in the afternoon - Brain dead and sycophantic host, brain dead and boring co-hosts, brain dead listeners. It shouldn't be called the "Big Show" it's the "Brainless Show"

The Veggie rides again!

Well, she's done it again - why don't we all use public broadcasting as a method of voicing our own person opinions, dressed up as knowledgeable comment shall we? That way we can gratify our own feeling of self-importance.

Alternatively we could shut up, keep quiet and not bother the rest of the UK with our meaningless tripe!

WA

Can The Veggie really be so condescendingly pious and yet missing any intelligence?

Will that woman [Janie Lee Grace] EVER stop banging on about the environment as if she has any idea what the hell she is talking about?

Surely it’s bad enough listening to the regular tripe that is served to us on a daily basis between 2 and 5, but can we just stop with the ignorant lay-preaching?

Ok, so today we were all berated for daring to flush our toilets with clean water when there are countries that are suffering from droughts.

IS THIS WOMEN ENTIRELY DEVOID OF ANY COMMON SENSE?

What does she want us to do? Fill up small food bags with our surplus water and post it to Africa? Perhaps we should hire a tanker, and ship our unused toilet water to the sub-continent – from there hire 2,000 lorries to distribute it to all the countries. Just what effect does she think that will that have on the environment I wonder?

At this point I would normally be hoping for some joined up thinking in the future, but in the case of the Veggie I’ll just settle for basic thinking – any thought at all.

How can anyone justify putting the Veggie on air – HOW? She must be the most brain dead moron I’ve had the misfortune to suffer, ever.

Will it ever end?
