I agree. Anything that gets away from the Daily-Mail-ification of phone-in radio is fine by me. I just wish they had invested in the station properly to give it a proper chance. I also wonder a bit about having two left-field shows (Iain Lee and Jon Holmes) in Mon-Fri slots and whether this will attract sufficient listeners in the long term. I wonder if Jon will either be asked to do something more mainstream or perhaps move to a weekend, 'appointment to listen' slot.
