In the morning my radio alarm is set to go off at 6am tuned to Today FM. Specifically Miz AM Kelly who does the morning show. Now some of you may have heard my rants about this particular DJ who appears to be hopelessly confused about all things media, music and news. Not a good thing for someone supposedly working in radio. So why, you must be asking yourselves would I subject myself to this warbling wonder?

The answer my friends is simple.

She’s so bad, she makes me want to get up and throw my radio against the wall just to shut her up. It’s the only thing that gets me out of bed in the morning, the need to get AS FAR AWAY from the radio as possible. Don’t believe me? Observe the following little chat from this morning:

AMK (talking to Morning Newsreader Lady): Did you hear about the weather today?
MNL: You mean the snow?
AMK: Yes. Do you know I bought some anti-freeze last week and it didn’t work.
MNL: What?
AMK: Well I poured some on my windscreen and it didn’t do anything.
MNL: Oh, right.
AMK: Yes, and I found that last week by the time I’d poured warm water on my windscreen to melt the frost, that it had re-frozen by the time I had gone back into the house to put the kettle back. Actually I was talking to a taxi driver the other day and he gave me a great tip about that.
MNL: Newspaper.
AMK: No. Well, I suppose you could use that too… But he said, if you start the car and then turn the wipers on while pouring the water it wouldn’t freeze on the windscreen. That’s good isn’t it?
MNL: Seems pretty common sense to me.
AMK: [silence]
Me: You GO newsreader lady!!
AMK: We’re such girls about these things aren’t we?
MNL: No.
