Radio phone-ins....men can't half talk!

Perhaps male radio callers are prolix because they don't get to talk much elsewhere.

Currently watching Saturday Kitchen. Guest is Tom Allen and I just said to DH a man who likes the sound of his own voice 😕

He is a funny for all of 5 mins but after that he starts to irritate big time, Jeremy Vine does seem to get about 50/50 phone calls but I am sure it's the same people every day who only want to say" good morning to Jeremy & good Morning panel😡

I reckon he'd be horrified though at least it all looks beautiful

I have five WM duvet covers

With a matching duvet cover

Next sell loads of WM print clothes.
I’m a little bit upset that he’s become so mainstream.
I used to love seeking out WM bits and bobs.
I do wonder what he’d think about it

It would make lovely curtains...

Hmmm! Too late to stop me from going mad!

Now I've truly lost the plot! And am going to wander off and imagine what a snakeshead print jumpsuit would look like.

it was thought to be his favourite print

I’ve got some Snakeshead lamp shades on their way from John Lewis!

Just ignore FannyCornforth in her snakeshead print jumpsuit, she knows not what she does

I listen to radio 2 when I am at work and all the callers that ring in think they are right, whether they are male or female but I guess that is part of having a strong enough feeling of being right or knowledgeable to ring in, in the first place. I am often astounded as to how many people think they are 'paying for' somebody else though. Especially when they are at home presumably, ringing in to the radio station!

Margs what on earth are you on about?
I’ve never engaged with you before now
Don’t worry, I shan’t bother again - unless you do want to share what you were actually listening too; which I assumed was vital to the conversation

Kircubbin thank you.
The op has started at least one other thread in Pedants’ Corner.
It was a genuine enough query

Margs

Sincere and immensely profuse apologies Fannycorn - I do seem to offend YOUR censoreship/woke rules rather clumsily,don't I?

Nothing woke there. She's only pointing out that you have posted in the wrong thread.

Sorry, another question please Marg, why do you keep starting threads that have nothing to do with pedantry in Pedants’ Corner?

What were you listening to?
I listen to LBC a lot, especially over night, and the callers are 50/50
Talk Radio/TV are definitely skewed more towards men (and the lunatic fringe)
Haven’t listened to 5 Live overnight for ages as I can’t bear Dotun Adebayo.

Only men?
I am sometimes too slow off the mark to switch off Any Answers (which can be like the DM on steroids) and I would have said honours were even.

Does the presenter agree Margs 🤣
