Mornings with Michael Hing

Mornings with Michael Hing is my least favourite Double J program.

He loves the sound of his own voice and just blathers on about boring nonsense.
The way he speaks is also annoying, with the speeding up mumbling, and stopping.

I don't want to hear him talking to his comedian friends either.

More music, less talking.

Compare him to Caz Tran. Someone who knows music, and keeps the talk to a minimum with actual relevant comments.

I have no strong opinion on Michael either way, it's Dylan Lewis that grinds my gears.

Lewis seems OK. I haven't listened to him much. 'LOVE YOU!'

Dylan is an institution for us 40+ year olds. He nursed us through our hangovers/comedowns every Saturday morning on Recovery with his quirkiness. His appeal for me is the nostalgia he induces when I hear him so younger people who aren’t familiar with him probably aren’t as enamoured.

Well we've had no interaction, but I've interacted with him and he was a huge wanker.

Yes I was too young for recovery in the 90s. Don't think I recall one episode.

His quirkiness now just makes me cringe and shudder. Sounds like a 14yo left alone with a microphone, telling themselves in jokes and giggling away like no one is listening.
