Talk Sport

Sport is something I have no interest in, but even for people like me Talksport still holds some interest, because between 10pm at night and 6am each morning the station is given over to general talk radio. A few years ago the main talk show presenter was the ever-rebellious James Whale, with the excellent Ian Collins following on through the early hours, but after Whale was eventually sacked by the powers that be the show has struggled to find a suitable replacement presenter. Collins now regularly presents in Whale's own slot, and he is an intelligent, entertaining and wholly professional presenter who normally manages to make even the dullest topics seem ...  Read the complete review

As I work on shifts both days and nights, thanks to the beauty of the internet I have listened to all of Talksport's shows over the years so fell pretty well qualified to write about it! It does what it says on the tin i.e. it is talk radio with a sports leaning but is much more than that to me. Unashamedly aimed at "blokes" probably in the 20-50 years range it is a mixture of sport, current affairs, humour, phone-ins, competitions and general chaos at times. It is not a sexist station at all though, the "bloke based-banter" and "post-match debating" is done with tongue firmly in cheek and many female listeners do call in and have their say. ...  Read the complete review

Found on 1053am talkSPORT is a gem of a radio station. It's morning breakfast show hosted by Alan Brazil and Ronnie Irani is a great show starting at 6. Full of interviews and all the latest developments in the sporting world it is a great way to kick off the morning. This is followed by Andy Townsend and Mike Parry at 10.

Talksport is a british radio station , hosted on 1053 am and on DAB digital radio . Of course the clue is in th title , the topic is mostly sport but there are many other political , funny and everyday issues discussed .

Over the last few years I’ve clocked up quite a few miles doing various jobs. Whilst I’m in the car, listening to the radio becomes very important for my state of mind. After all, chances are you will hit serious traffic at some stage so having the back up of music really helps. I recently wrote about Virgin radio as this is one of the main stations I listen too but an excellent alternative is talkSport. I’ve been listening to talkSport for a few years now. I’d never really been a fan of talk radio but it was this station that changed my mind more than anything. The station can be found at 1053 or 1089AM, Freeview 723, Homechoice 625, NTL899, Sky858, Telewest ...  Read the complete review
