Chris, Dom, Pippa, Matt and James have added another 100,000 listeners in the latest figures.
There was a mention of Folkface being at the wedding too, and a brief mention of a discussion with Dave!
I’m hoping this might be the start of fences being mended, if they haven’t already.
I don’t think we will ever see Dave back on the air, but it would be nice if we heard Chris and Dave do something in public again. I always wanted a no limits podcast with the team after Radio 1, a boy can dream.
Anyone know if there’s a pubcast this year? Can’t find anything about it anywhere.

I think he moved on to work with people he liked better - he was exec producing Dave Berry who he'd worked with at XFM, and then left that to produce Elis and John when they moved to the BBC even touring with them now. Dave was a great on air voice, and a good foil for Chris as being the Radio X company man, but in retrospect probably impressive he lasted as long on the show as he did.

I'm sure others can say better than me, but I suspect even though it was ten years ago or more, the big break between Radio 1 and Radio X probably slowed a lot of conversation on here. I love forums, but by and large they aren't the place for this sort of discussion any more. I think a lot of Moyles chat is now on Facebook - think there are a couple of large show discussion groups on there. I've never been able to bring myself to join them especially as I don't listen to the show very much these days.

No Dom, not been mentioned no sound clips of him and Chris pretty much doing the show solo with odd interjections from captain and the two producers.
Hope he’s okay.
