The End Of Radio 2....

[rowdy]

Yes, pop master is going to ghr with Ken.

I recently bought a jap domestic market vehicle, and the stereo in it would only get radio 2. Luckily the Mrs bought me a dab stereo for it this Xmas. I usually listen to radio 2 but will probably tune out now.
Can’t stand radio 1, the bloke I used to work with went from listening to r2 to thinking he was a 70 year old yoof and started listening to radio 1. I can honestly say it made me depressed.

Yes, but at least he has a bridge named after him.

Off topic, I notice you have a Manta A pic up, do you have one?

I bought one that had been used for spares to repair a body damaged one and had a few rings gone for £20 40 years ago, I re-built her sourcing panels and a 1.9 engine out of a scrap Rekord and was about to start prepping for a re-paint when GF trouble forced the sale of it, tried to get it back once she was gone but the buyer had scrapped it over something really trivial.

I put some low profiles on some Rostyle type wheels which also came from another wrecked one cheap and the car really held on well, I used to call it my mini Corvette and wanted to rag top it so it would take on a speedboat look in gloss black, came from the factory in that yuk yellow

To be a good radio presenter on a daily basis involves a considerable amount of work, particularly if you are operating at his level. He may simply have had enough.

However some time as a 'show and go' jock on commercial radio may be money for old rope by comparison and may be a pleasant way of easing into retirement. I'd take it. Wouldn't you?

Ken is taking POP-Master with him to his new station, he has a company which owns the rights :-)

True story, Steve wright was a reject from radio one.

And let's not forget that Paul Gambaccini went from Radio 2 to Classic, to Radio 3 and can still be found on Radio 4 for the Music Quiz.

Maybe we should accept that it's us getting older who need to adapt and move and not expect the stations to remain stuck in a particular time warp.

I’ll miss Pop Master, it’s all I switch over to listen to on Radio Two.

Never mind.☹️
