I always stick up for Simon Mayo because I have always found his show
enjoyable whatever anybody says about him. He may not have the greatest
music taste but it is a lot better than the playlist. He has the 9-12 slot
down to a tee and to me it is the only daytime show I will actively try and
listen to apart from Mark n Lard. Certainly to compare him to CW, TOTP and
the Top 40 is insulting.
