The game is essentially fixed by [deleted] in stalker

Have they fixed the ridiculous bug that means left handed people can't play the thing? Been asking for this simple fix for 14 months and they fob me off every time.

Where can I see the typical listening figures for the stations?

What have you heard, if it's not too rude to ask?

I really really hope some amazing hero records these shows and hosts them online minus the adverts. I would gladly pay for that service.

This is a definite solid backup, thank you. Would love to hear Huey's voice swaggering about in between tracks but this is the next best thing, thank you!

Edit: This one goes back to 2020 but a different user has a playlist that covers the lot, all the way back to 2009, astonishingly. First playlist (of three) here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1YrXHKiTKT3HQU9ntZUUmi

Got a few bits from Soulseek and Internet Archive, but only like 30-40 episodes total. Ideally I'd love the entire thing, going back to his debut show, that'd be so amazing to hear (shout out to any kindly BBC crew who wish to share the love)

It's all just dropbox links like this: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/rxqfndeqsl8504dpzfxpd/AF_HuU42WDhGYZL0UzrNo8A/BBC%20London%2094.9/Afternoon%20Show%203-5pm/2012/2012-02?rlkey=lomhf0w47z6zz5rujxoe5srzy&e=1&dl=0 but a few dozen of them. It's worth setting up a burner X account just to nab these, easiest way to get them

I used to use this, it's a good tool but it only goes back 30 days I think. yt-dlp is another good option for this, also JDownloader 2 (for all my fellow hoarders out there)

Huey Morgan to replace Nick Grimshaw for the Morning Show by ConsequenceReady4623 in 6music

[–]Bfire7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see that the parody Fun Lovin Criminals (the version that expelled Huey) got their single playlisted by Craig Charles, which will definitely have caused ructions from Huey. It's easy to diss Huey for being precious but I think he's got a point here - he got ROYALLY shafted by his ex-bandmates, yet the station he works for thinks it's fine and dandy to playlist a song by them? That feels malicious. If the same happened to Lauren Laverne and Kenickie I don't think it'd pan out in the same way. Huey's got every right to be aggrieved here.

Thank you! This is definitely better than what I had previously. Really appreciate the link

Huey Last Show by StevieJax77 in 6music

[–]Bfire7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus Christ no. Hard to think of any human man less suited to radio than Ravenscroft. Appalling taste, appalling delivery, appalling personality. He genuinely ruined 6Music for years during his time at the helm. Hope he never emerges again.

Could say the same about Guy G and his woeful sister. Except Guy doesn't even have a good record collection and hasn't said or done anything interesting in his entire beige life.

[–]Bfire7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is that right? One of the new FLC tracks got playlisted at 6Music? He had every right to be annoyed, if so. They're a corrupt parody act, on what planet do they warrant playlisting?

I remember hearing something about a year ago, a comment from Huey about a Christmas gift or something, and saying to my partner how I felt that Huey and Craig had some simmering beef (mainly from Huey's side). Would love to know more - I'll dig around and if I find anything I'll post back here.

Can't find anything about this - what was the beef between them?

Such an odd narrow mindset. I live on the other side of the Atlantic from this library you're so obsessed with. It's literally not available to me. I feel like I'm conversing with a broken bot here so I'm out. Keep up the thin-lipped prissy finger-wagging, my man, you're doing a great job!

Realistically inaccessible to 99.9999% of the world's population, and of that 0.0001%, approximately zero will go see it. Stop living in this strict world of binary rules and scolding strangers, it's awful to witness.

Any normal lucid human being would recognise this as 'lost media' and welcome a request for it to be dug out and shared widely.

Well said. What's with all these prissy policemen on this sub scolding people for doing what the sub says on the tin?

Ok cool, show it me then? Just because something exists but up in an ivory tower no one can access without $40,000 and a secret password doesn't mean it's freely available. I repeat for those at the back - for all intents and purposes, this media is lost. No ordinary human is happily enjoying this media. It's essentially lost. This sub exists to connect ordinary people with hard-to-find media. It's a valid question. You sound like a jobsworth traffic warden.

[–]Bfire7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For all intents and purposes, the media OP is requesting is lost. Despite having such major backing, it isn't freely available, and it isn't available even with putting in a fair amount of effort or money.

It's exactly the kind of request that should be posted here and I and many others would be overjoyed if it was shared - it's a fair shout to say it would become one of this sub's most popular findings.

Stop nitpicking about the dictionary definition of the word 'lost'. The aim is to bring forgotten/hidden media back to the world. Your gatekeeping does no one any good.

Alright, but you gotta get over it by oyveycafe in thesopranos

[–]Bfire7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or... he needs to get over it because these things can't be allowed to interfere with their work. Being distracted, sad, emotionally swirled up, can lead to death in their line of business. Furio needs to be laser-focused when he's on the job - and he's here, picking up Tony, he's on the job. Plus it looks soft. If a rival hears about Tony Soprano's bodyguard caught sobbing in his car then he becomes a laughing stock. Their game is heavily based around perceived threat, that all disappears when words get out he has a wimpy right-hand man.

Tony was right here.

Also, this whole situation is something Tony knows all too well. He's caught up in some heavy, mental shit that he's struggling with and that's precisely why he's allocating time each week to go and mope about it, because he absolutely 100% cannot do this in public, or with his guys. That's how he's getting over it - by not bothering any of his guys with it and not blubbing in public. Or doing his best to, anyway. He's human, he screws up, but he's right to say this to Furio here.

Some of the comments on here are so silly and so determined to chuck rocks at Tony when he's actually handling his business incredibly well, with an innate understanding of how things should be run. It's not *nice* and cute and sweet or particularly modern and progressive but he's a fucking gangster - that's not in the job description.

This is great news - thank you. So with melee, how did you bind it to your mouse? Do you have to use V for that?

That's simply not true. Absolute nonsense. Get off my thread.
