It looks as if one of LBC's best slots (the Ken and David show, recently minus Ken) has been given the boot entirely and worse, handed over to the waste of oxygen that is Katie Hopkins.
I can only hope talkRADIO can find a way to get that show back on air. LBC are truly plumbing the depths with their dumbed-down choices and direction and I hope tR is able to fill that void in the long term. |

Galloway mentioned his show was podcasted last week. Are they available on iTunes?

As for LBC presenters moving to TalkRadio, that has only worked out for Iain Lee. JHB - who got the phones ringing at LBC - gets no calls. |

TalkRadio has George Galloway, who could be described in similar terms to Katy Hopkins.

Thanks for this. That was at one time one of my favorite radio shows (I bought an internet radio adapter for my hifi before LBC was pre DAB. I also subscribed to the podcasts. My card expired and so my subscription lapsed. I won't renew!
Now I read your saying it's been scrapped, if this is true I will be very very disappointed it was my favourite show on LBC.![]() [better when Ken was there but still great]What on earth are they playing at?, the show was a massive hit with listeners I reckon their podcast subscriptions might take a hit over this if it's true I'm certainly going to think about it and write in and complain strongly. |

Only in terms of their place on the political spectrum. Like Ken Livingstone, they have both expressed controversial views and offended groups of people.

I'll put it slightly different. Galloway and Livingstone are the left's equivalent of Hopkins and Farage.
If this country was like the US, so we had a left-wing talk station and a right-wing talk station, I can imagine Galloway and Hopkins being on at the same time, trying to appeal to people who want shock-jock polemical controversial speech programming. Only the BBC would offer something more moderate with broad appeal. |

As there is a Parliamentary recess, and it's Summer holiday season for presenters, how do you know the LBC Saturday show isn't just taking a break?
There's been no announcement it's been cancelled. A caller said to Nick Abbot the other night he was sorry Nick was leaving. He isn't. |

I understood what you meant - I just think you're wrong about Hopkins, who is in a category of vileness all by herself. It's not about left and right.

I was wandering that, surely it will be live but that means 6 hours. The TalkSPORT website says Colin Murray is on today so was it a last minute change maybe.
From what Mike Graham has said on Twitter it was a late substitute. https://twitter.com/Iromg/status/759862581142040577 |
