So they're starting today, don't sound too bad thus far. Anyone else giving them a listen?

Yeah, I am. Ok so far. The best bit so far was the chat with Vernon before 1. The first half hour of the actual show was a bit slow though, they seemed very nervous, but it does show promise and should be develop into a good show in the future.

Plus the slagging of Moyles could lead to a nice little radio 1 rivalry

Yeah, plus nice to see that Radio 1 are brininging in new DJ's that can operate a studio rather than celebs without a clue!

I don't like them (as posted in another thread). I'm still going to listen and hope they grow on me, they just don't sound like radio1 presenters. Also, nice view for webcam1!

I listened to JK and Joel when they did breakfast in manchester. It was better than Sara Cox. And they were really good, they will probably be able to push things a little futher on weekends too. So far the show was been ok, but it will get better, they just sound nervous. They're funny guys

What the hell is with their voices??? They're the most annoying voices in the world. I hate them already.

They sound alright, they are listenable. I wouldn't say they are anything special yet though, and they aren't anything like Mark and Lard!

Like they've said though they are starting off small so I'll listen again sometime to see if they improve.

I don't think they're anything like Mark and Lard either. I like the text they just got sent: "Has someone cloned Wes and produced two?" I can relate to that.

First time i've heard them, thought they were pretty good. I'll no doubt listen each saturday at work.

Their accents were nowhere near as annoying as Mark and Lards.

JK and Joel started off on Viking FM in Hull.

I know I used to listen to them and go clubbing with them on a Friday night.

They then moved to Manchester about 4 years ago.

I agree with McQueen and Sidders - how on earth do they resemble Mark and Lard?

Neither of them is from Manchester actually. Joel is from Scarborough and JK is from Tenbury Wells.

From what I heard they did fine today. Just give them time to bed in and they'll be great, you can't judge them after just one show (or in Aaron's case 44 minutes of one show).

Well obviously...I don't think you'll find anyone here disputing that.

I can't wait for Chris to rip the piss out of this whole "Radio One - We Love Weekends" thing.

and Viking went downhill from there. You should hear the piss they've got on breakfast now - they will NOT be going to radio 1, manchester, or anywhere near any decent radio station if people have any sense. Everyone just listens to Galaxy or Hallam in hull now dont they?

i forgot to listen but oh well :p

Why do you think I listen to Radio 1 now in a morning. The only decent DJ they have left at Viking is Mark Summers. Hursty and Pimp Daddy Dog went to Galaxy.

Is Sara Cox doing voiceovers for the Radio 1 "We love weekends"?

If not it is someone who sounds very like her... Maybe Sara's new job at radio 1 will be voiceover woman.

Am listening now and they're much much better than some of the other DJs on Radio1, Vernon's good - sunday mornings are good on the air
