Doesn’t surprise me that 2GB is flunking in numerous timeslots. Most of their hosts aren’t even real radio presenter’s anymore and very boring. Deb knight, Ben Fordham etc are tv hosts attempting radio with no real radio experience. They will never have the success Chris Smith or Allen Jones had.
I listen to 2SM for TalkBack these days and Kiis FMs Kyle & Jackie O in the morning.

I’m sure he loves the mention Mumbrella, but it’s Byron Webb. You keep calling him Bryan in the last few articles.

I’m surprised the smooth fm publicity team haven’t picked it up already?!
