I really enjoy your posts and your sense of humour. I’m sure I am much. much older than you and I intend to live for a long time yet even with all the crap in today’s world so just keep on keepin’ on!
2SM was one of the top rating stations when I first arrived in Sydney in 1968! The present setup is a blight on a great station’s past.
Chris Smith is unlistenable, many times 2sm have been tricked into rage bait stories off Facebook or callers quoting non existing newspaper articles.
Using Raphael lataster to beat the antivaxer drum is silly ,anyone can see his university credentials are religious studies not statistics, virology, epidemiology or even basic science. Furthermore hes been debunked and looks foolish.
For years 2sm has been playing the right wing apocalyptic born-again anti everything resulting in a small but super regular caller base.
If anything they have only shown how unless acma is and how much we need mis and dis information regulation ,no wonder kind presenters are leaving or going to a radio island to live in peace.
Can’t resist, one more post to make it 1089 2gz 2(uggg)el happy annihilation post. Possibly the cheapest run station on the whole network despite its reach. If tony sleeps in or goes on holidays 2el gets 2hd, which is a breath of fresh air. There’s 2 local advertiser’s on 2el a carpet cleaning mob and a jewellery shop. Both probably have connections. The rest are auto adds i wouldn’t want my brand name on this network if they paid me.,sad passing for 1089.
Ball is in your court ,common cents.
It also got a mention on The Daily Telegraph website. Good press for 2SM - and Chris knew what he was doing when he said, “Welcome to 2SM” at the start of the interview. Chris knows/knew this would gain publicity.
Mark is now claiming victim status, the very thing that right whingers (sic) rail against on the network. He also wont appear on the ABC but needs the cuddly warm touch of his best bud Smithy. Its the castle of cringe.
They are hard up for publicity when they have to use this despicable character to get some!
Then again, I suppose it was one despicable character speaking to another!
Thats it , local advertising is dropping off and robotic advertisers are the main stay. I don’t want my business associated with dirty old duck shoving men claiming mental health and alcohol issues or unmoderated conspiratorial callers (falconio , port athur,covid,wef ,U.N, bunnings canceling Australia/Anzac day,5g chinese mind control, turbo cancer’s, leftie teachers forcing sex changes on 4 year olds,growth hormones added to chickens post mortem) .phew thats quite a list but wait there’s more!!!
I don’t want my business associated with this rot, i can see a strong parallel with 2sco Miami, the right wing radio station bought to sell venus fly trap juice pills and arbor vitae on 2sm thanks to lawsies amazing skills.
