Steve "Love the Show" Wright and Simon "Simon" Mayo were doing that on Radio 1 long afore Evans had a gig there.

Re: Chris Evans
Is he still running that Car Fest event? The most tragically middle-aged event going aimed at Waitrose loyalty card holders, people who wear bootcut jeans, call Twickenham "HQ" and think Clarkson should be Prime Minister.

Clarkson. Interesting case. Like Durham he has created an entirely fictitious character for his media appearances and is now trapped inside it. In real life he voted Remain in the referendum which might surprise some of his fans.

The thing that's always struck me about Evans is that, as far as I can tell, he is essentially joyless. He's like someone who's read lots of self-help books on 'How to Be Happy' and he now practices the instructions like an alien trying to blend into this strange world of humans. There's always a strained smile and lots of 'Isn't this FUN?!?' exclamations that suggest he's trying to convince himself as much as his audience.

His breakfast show on Virgin is bizarre. Unlistenable at times.
Just crash-bang-wallop stuff with him and his gang laughing in an over-the-top way, no time to breathe, zany stuff.
Also a few unsavoury bits where he brags about his wealth or the clout he has. Not good.
My boss (who's an entrepreneur) unsurprisingly loves him, says he's a role model etc

I once worked for an entrepreneur (owned a few businesses) who used to go on about how 'inspirational' Chris Evans' autobiography was
Personally, I can think of fewer things I'd less like to read. Might be the odd decent Gazza 90s boozing story but even that's a stretch.

Whilst bullying fuck out of his "team" to try and get some degree of balance for the endless kickings he received at school, all due to him being an annoying little orange shitcunt

Quite how this man has avoided Jail is a mystery to me. Indecent exposure while working on The Big Breakfast.The rampant grooming of Billie Piper. I mean, seriously?

Re: Chris Evans
There was an article 'by' him in The Times a week or so ago. I flicked on to it, and was horrified to find it was basically him guiding you through all of his favourite self-help pop psychology books, with the alarming conviction that they would change your life. It confirmed my earlier suspicions. He seems to have zero inner reason, he needs external stimuli to get him functioning. Like his manic cheerfulness - I doubt he's really happy at all, he's just into all of that 'think yourself happy' nonsense. He probably went to one of those therapy groups where you're told to make yourself laugh in order to be able to laugh. He's always been odd, but these days he's way past Noel Edmonds odd, he's pioneering oddity in extremis.
