Radio The SEN Thread 10

[Contra Mundum]

**** me - Finey and Peakey have put out some indulgent Shit radio but Jesus....the football jukebox is unlistenable

 

[peternorth]

thoughts about the michael beresford open corp advert?

 

[craigos]

Marko going on about Brother Burger and the Marvellous Brew. Mate, we all know you don't drink beer and if you do it's probably a f*cking Peroni so lets not overact. The live reads are arguably the worst thing about SEN and I have zero idea why any company would think it's better than a pre-record. No one thinks it's an editorial from the host, give it up.

I suspect there may be some research to show that people listen to them more than pre-recorded ads. I know myself I tune out when the usual ads come on but I listen (involuntarily) to the live read ones. Even if they are annoying they plant the seed in your brain.

Footy Jukebox?

 

[isamedthegiants]

He's a idiot.

Footy Jukebox?

Yeh - I usually find Peakey funny but that is pox

Ha ha. Milne and Zantuck should NOT talk about music. Their taste is so white bread and "easy listening".
Zantuck was saying how great Simply Red were.

Milne reckons Bon Jovi was the best band ever, and that Miami Vice was the best ever tv show.
It's fair enough to like average stuff (I enjoy plenty of crap movies and tv shows), but ya've gotta have enough awareness to realize that it's ordinary, and not spruik its "virtues", while assuming everyone else is wrong.

Harf says the same thing about Bon Jovi!

Ha ha, Don't even get me started on HIS musical taste. I remember he took that "boy band" thing on The Footy Show way too seriously. I reckon he pictured himself as a member of NSYNC or the Backstreet Boys.

KB announced as the next statue for the MCG.

Very funny radio at the moment with people ringing to congratulate him.

I was listening to Finey at around 11:30pm last night which is rare – I usually only either hear his first hour or the first hour of All Night Appetite.

Anyway does he usually just piss off and let the pre-recorded stuff run for the last hour? The blokes ringing up and doing their weekly wraps of darts and some other sport I can't remember? There's absolutely no interaction between Finey and the 'interviewee', which is a bit of a dead give away, but I had to laugh when the bloke on the buttons accidentally pressed something twice so Finey "thanked" one of the callers and then thanked him again using the exact same sentence!

Even Denise rang in! Surprised she could manage it with her chronic fatigue and all

I think it depends which night. I've usually had enough of a dose of him by then. Anyway, yes, he sometimes plays interviews from earlier in the day, and other times he speaks to a couple of guys overseas....or a greyhound guy..or the darts guy. I'm not 100% sure.

I only ever listen to Finey for the first hour or so, when they preview/review the footy. After that the show goes downhill fast.

I like the selection/match previews on a thurs night but that's about all I can stomach.

Congrats to KB, that was very good radio yesterday

i recall that vividly. there was a rap/song about waverley park. he was the lead singer. as you said, took it very seriously. was always involved in performances as such.

if you listen from TRH and then into finey it gets monotonous. teams read out, predictions. rinse, repeat.

 

[bedford]

Don't listen to TRH, so it doesn't matter

Yeah, didn't he do it for several years?

not sure, but certainly liked to be front and middle

Jee, doesn't Derek Humphery-Smith come across as a smug, condescending prick? As an unofficial representative of the umpires, he does their PR no favours. If he's trying to be funny, it doesn't work

I used to love it when they referred to him as Humpty on TRH, had the impression it really got under his skin

 

[bedford]

He's not needed, what a poindexter
