Your thoughts on Chris Moyles

The thread sort of started here; I think it is worthy of its own thread, so here goes: http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Music/Question210350.html

I'm not a fan, but I accept that he's not aiming at people of my age and background.

He must be appealing to the audience Radio One want because his listening figures are excellent.

I started listening to him him about 7 years ago when he was first on Radio 1, doing the early breakast show, and have been a fan ever since. I genuinely find him very funny, and I like the fact he actually says what he thinks about the songs he plays, if he doesn't like a song, he won't act like its the greatest thing sliced bread, like a lot of presenters do. I can see how he might get on some people's nerves but I really like him.

he is an annoying fat pleb

Used to like him. Got too big for his boots now. Reminds me of Chris Evans to a certain degree. Great for a while. Then just grates.

i met him once and he was really quite pleasant, not at all mouthy like on the radio, and hes a lot shorter than you think...

ps dont be thinking im name dropping, hes not that famous!!!

used to irritate the hell outta me but my fella has always liked him and got me listening to the breakfast show which ive got to be honest sets me up for the day! its hilarious and i am now a Moyles convert. He's honest, seems down to earth and doesn't give a monkeys what people think. I like that, its refreshing. So he offends people....they should probably be listening to Radio 2 anyway.

mouthy self important ****

most of the time i think he is ok, but like i said before, this morning i think he was being a bit of an idiot!! some times he takes the p*** out of people a bit to much! i think he may be getting a bit to big for his boots.
but i must say i really like the thing he done to the james blunt song, that makes me laugh every time!
i do listen most mornings but i think the other members of the team help as well.

I find his shows funny & entertaining. Which is why I listen to it. You obviously don't though booldawg, so why do you keep listening?

Agree with robbo82 - I really like him and the show. Thought he should have got the Breakfast show gig a few years ago - I never liked Sara Cox, although Zoe Ball was good. I think he is the same now as he's always been - his arrogance is always a bit tongue-in-cheek. The James Blunt thing is hilarious! The only thing that really annoys me is when he's sycophantic with the guests. He admits he's a kiss-ass though, so fair play and all that.

A slight aside - Carrie and Aled get on my nerves a bit!

i keep listening because thats what everyone at works wants to listen to...
