Loved it, one of the best shows on radio atm imo. Add to that the fact that he was hosting Jonathon Ross' show this morning and called him Tarby on numerous occasions and I must say I quite like the fella.

Mark Kermode isn't Irish either.

i don't really bother with it, to be honest. it's a bit 'holiday reggae' for me in places, and when it's not, it's a bit obvious.

I don't like Lamarr - is it OK despite this?

how can anybody but you answer that?

Anyone who doesn't like Lamarr but listens to the show could - I like reggae and dislike Lamarr in equal measure.
exosculate said:
no they couldn't, think about it. i don't know what aspect of Lamarr's personality you don't like, how prevalent that aspect of his personality is therefore on the show, whether or not you like reggae enough to overcome that aspect, whether he plays the kind of reggae you like etc etc etc.

I'm asking for others personal opinions. We live in that kind of world.
exosculate said:
i know, and i'm saying that it's my sincere believe that nobody else could answer that question.
an example: i can't fucking STAND Jim Carrey. he was in a movie ages ago that people reckoned i'd like enough to enjoy despite his loathsome presence.
i didn't, i hated it because of him.
THEN the same thing happened with Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, people said i'd like it anyway. but this tim i loved it, despite his presence. i doubt anybody but me could put my finger on why he still fucked up the first film but not the second.
simple really - only you have your taste. hey, why not LISTEN to it ?

The world is awash with opinions - which others take note of or ignore.
I shall take a listen of it though.

you seem convinced that i'm the spectrum somewhere between being unhelpful or abrasive, but i think i'm just stating, for good reason IMO, that nobody but you can answer your question.

I hate Lamaar on Don't forget the Buzzcocks but he seems much lighter on his music shows. Less schoolyard bully with big mates who laugh at his every wittering... more genuinely enthusiastic music afficiado. He certainly leaves his ego at the door with guests like Ken Boothe.

Bumped because he's back on tonight.
And I've got a minidisc of last weeks in case anyone missed Ken Boothe.

Must listen to this tonight. Which means I've gotta go home (and offline) cos I forgot to bring my fucking earphones.

i'm still at work, but it should be there. it's case sensitive, so try it both ways.
he's a bit younger, having turned 41 this year
