If you have DAB radio in the car, tune into Union Jack which plays all British music with no ads and no chit chat
It gets a bit samey after a few days, but works as a break for a couple

Radio Dead is better.

Had a quick dip in while in the bathroom...talkingragshite as usual Luke Shaw POTY at the swamp, Spurs fan (can't be real or if he was needs locking up) rang up & said he'd got into the Ajax game late and thought as it was approaching FT (it was actually approaching HT) so left with 3 mins of what he thought was FT left to beat the crowds. Next was Brazil boasting about his freebies around the world & my stint ended with they ringing ex-rag Bosnich who they couldn't hear as his kids were creating.

First intensional listen for quite a while and not missed much.

Gough is quite the contrast. I enjoy him talking about the cricket, he is knowledgable and informative. Then he pipes up with his uninformed drivel when football is the topic. I have to laugh though when he has a particular point of view and then immediately U Turns when someone calls in with a counter argument. It's all "Take it with a pinch of salt" radio.

My views of him have been somewhat tainted by the fact that when treating myself to 3 days hospitality at the oval test in 2013 I had the mis fortune to share them with him, 1 of them days was pretty much a total washout and seemed like a bar in the bar with the village idiot spouting off all day. iirc hes a barnsley\yoonited\spurs fan with a softspot for the dippers and Arsenal and Giles was a better bowler than warne as he didnt have the natural talent that warne did.

I can see you pov. I have the luxury of turning him off when I get irritated.

Seems like every presenter is going with the "will city slip up at Brighton". not a mention of Liverpool slipping up. balance?

They are not employed to be "balanced". They are employed to attract listeners, the vast majority of whom are incapable of thinking for themselves and rely on TS (+ Sky, the sun etc) to tell them what their opinion should be.

Since Palace.

Neville started “City will slip up at some point” on Monday Night Football before the Palace game.

Ever since then the media have carried it on before every game.
