My understanding with that is that Facebook Live ads will have revenue sharing (same as YouTube, Twitch etc) but don't yet as they're still thrashing out the tech- ones sharing is up and running they'll probably change their tune.

And it wouldn't count as a RAJAR tick, but that doesn't matter so much if there's revenue- RAJARs are only there as a stepping stone to revenue, after all.

If this is heading in the direction some people are saying ------ I hope someone records it .......

Listening back to this mornings show, it wasn't a full rant like his R1 days but it deffo sounds odd. He said Ashley Tabor isn't answering his calls and Chris does alot to get exposure for the station but they don't seem to care. Maybe because the figures aren't great seems odd - global seem to have given up on the station already.

Yes just heard Wednesday's. (I'm a day behind due to download)
Enjoyed it. Laughed out loud a few times which is a good sign.
A few decent songs too

I download the full show. Skip news and ads and most songs
I've stopped listening to the podcast

He still almost get 45 mins to himself now
6:30 till 6:57. Then Ads and news then approx
7:04 till first song at 7:15

Since Monday he's referred too many times to rules and can we do stuff
Global management knew what they were getting but thought 'we will change him or bring some rules in to reign him in . They clearly want to keep Radio X mediocre
I fear Chris could damage his brand if he walks ....

That's sound's worrying if they have given up on the station and sounds like they have. I'm not too sure if he will stay after his contract experies in two years.

He referred to 2 years on Tuesday
He was teasing Pippa with the kids programme calling her name and Chris said I will annoy you (to Pippa) for the NEXT 2 years

Chris knows he has loyal fans so can he grit his teeth for 2 years

Check out Chris' Instagram an hour ago
Not happy

Just seen the vid, he dose not look happy at all.

Tell you what, if you've just had a huge rant and you want to get people talking that's textbook.

I have to say that, having now listened to the rant, I bloody enjoyed it even though I really shouldn't. Even when it's self-indulgent, even when he's harshly having a go at people in the cross-fire (poor Toby Anstis), it was entertaining. It's the most life I've heard in him for some time. And it reminded me of a lot of what I love about Moyles - refusing to do the 10 great songs in a row shtick, or pretend that he's having the best morning ever when very few people who are awake at half 6 in the morning are delighted about it.

It sounded a bit like Chris Evans' real-life soap opera era, the point between Radio 1 and Radio 2 when DJs tend to go a bit off the rails.

Back in the days of the BBC someone would urgently talk Moyles down - I'm not so sure that's likely to happen with Global. They've got themselves in a bit of a situation, as they've invested so much in this station and basically built it around Moyles.

Unless a) it's a stunt (it didn't sound like one, and that isn't Moyles' bag) or b) Global had always anticipated stuff like this happening down the track, I can't see that he's going to make it to the end of the contract. It's going to be an interesting listen, it certainly won't be 15 great songs in a row.

The team were very funny this morning going on about the gimp outfits Pippa bought. Steve Allen joined in too. Moyles wouldn't get away with a lot of this mornings humour on Radio 2.

People wouldn't go to Global's website to watch it.

It's about making the content as easy as possible to view. Which is why Facebook is gold.

Everyone is on Facebook. It's on everyone's phone. Facebook Live just WORKS.

It also doesn't cost Global any money in terms of bandwidth, it's all covered by Facebook.

Global need to see the Facebook Live thing as a marketing tool for Radio X - rather than a way to make money. Long term goals rather than quick cash, something commercial radio is so bad at.

And when it comes to RAJAR, the general public don't think about it in the same way. If someone watches a Chris Moyles Facebook Live video - and then next week get a knock on the door from Rajar. All they'll remember is seeing Moyles in a radio studio doing a link, and probably tick the RadioX box. They are not going to say "Well, I saw it on Facebook. So that doesn't technically count as radio. So I'm just not going to lie and say I listened when I didn't".

A person of Chris's stature to never make it to Radio 2 would be huge. Surely mwe will hear him in there at some point in the future, maybe not for 10 - 15 years you would class Radio X as a rung up the ladder it's more 2 steps down in his career global isn't a place to see out your days. For global offer to much heart, capital & Radio X they are the same just play different music. .

No one ever thought Evans would end up on Radio 2.

And look now.

If Chris wants it, and doesn't piss enough people off, it'll happen some day.

Being a big R1 DJ does not ensure a R2 slot, although many have moved there it doesn't have enough space for all, big names like Mike Read, DLT, Simon Bates, Gary Davies, Jakki Brambles, Mike Smith, Kevin Greening, Nicky Campbell, Lisa I,Anson haven't done shows on R2 either.

Added to which Chris Evans had a massive TV profile which he was arguably more well known for than his R1 show.

I must be missing something here, because this doesn't seem too bad at all? I wouldn't say he looks unhappy. As mentioned above, I think this is purely just to get certain people talking.

I am looking forward to to tomorrow. Either Chris will have won his stand off, or he will be whinging about the bollocking he got for today.

That said, yesterday and today have seen him starting to return to his better days at 1.

Thinking actually that they could do YouTube Live broadcasting which can be then archived for later use. They could venue dump there own adverts before the video and let Google handle the bandwidth. Funny thing that actually YouTube is on more people's phone then Facebook because it is a build in app for Android devices. Don't know about iphones.

Through my Facebook feed I have seen Heart Camb do a live Facebook feed for some competition they are doing this week and Heart Sussex do a live broadcast of Jack The Lad having his head shaved, so why can't Chris do a live feed for Radio X??

Tell you what, having heard the whole link, there's not a single other presenter at global that could get away with that.

Let's see if he's on air tomorrow. If he is, I think he'll see out his contract.

It was playing "this is radio x" but cutting off the "from global" bit at 7am that was most notable for me

He is on tomorrow. Radio X have been advertising as Oasis exclusive at 8am.

I wouldn't look too much into it. I think this is the Moyles returning that everyone has been longing for. Global knew what they were hiring when they hired Moyles. This is what he does best...mouthing off and having an opinion (and probably getting in the paper due to nearly being fired).

The show has been quite weak in my opinion so stuff like this that gives it a bit of mutiny on air and spice is only a good thing in my view.
