I called in regarding that there was no connection between Autism and violence on the Nick Ferrari show today as a doctor and he tried to abuse me about the notion. Now I am having to look after one of my Autistic patients who listened to the show and is feeling suicidal. Well done Nick Ferrari!

Global who owns LBC had 2 Jewish CEO's and in 2024 an Asian journalist lost her job for strongly interviewing a senior Israeli politician or military person about the deaths in Palestine by the Israeli military, 40,000 signatures were sent to Global, but they didn't giver her her job back, she was replaced by the Jewish Vanessa Feltz. Now they only have 2 Asian presenters, Global is biased towards Israel. Over 70,000 Palestinian civilians were killed. The Jewish presenter Tom Swarbrick and Shelagh Fogarty refuse to call this a war crime!

Where does Ben Kentish get his figures from. He was doing his usual pensioner bashing this morning.
He said pensioners are getting £600+a year rise in their pension next week. I've just worked out my increase out im getting approx £340 a year, i was employed for 45 years and never claim benefits.

It is 5 APR 2026 and as we speak, Ianin Dale is doing TWO shows a day!!!! Have LBC ever heard of over-exposure? Goodness sake!!!!!

Nick Ferarri, why does he feel the need to say GOOD MORNING to EVERY single person. It ISN'T necessary.

He'll ask the question and then says "GOOD MORNING". is it necessary for EVERY caller??

If you think is IS necessary, say "GOOD MORNING" or "WECOME" or "HELLO" (BEFORE) asking a question. Talk about annoying!

As for their adverts, does anyone know how to write adverts anymore? As soon as I hear the words "THIS IS LBC" I press mute to avoid the adverts. And for the voice-over artists. Whatever happened to GOOD voice-overs? The guy on the McANNOYING adverts, his voice is one of the MOST cringeworthy.

As for the advert which a male voice says "THIS IS HUMAN INTELLIGENCE", followed by a female saying "ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE". Oh dear! Most of which I have NO idea what they are advertising! Companies clearly have money to burn!

There is ZERO talent with the writing, producing and voicing.

I go between LBC and Times. And it iritates me so much the amount of people who say "thank you for taking my call". Without callers, they don't have a job! It's callers that keep them in their jobs. They "need" phone calls. But why people feel the need to give their "expert" opinions on EVERYTHING is really baffling to me. 'Sometimes' it can be interesting, but for the most-part.....

For gods sake, could we have a different set of adverts? If the one I am thinking of has been playing for 4 months and I hear it 5 times a day, that is 600 times! And I still can't remember what brand they are advertising

A Station of Opinionated ‘Shut Up’.
Articulated presenters solely there to twist their pre rehearsed analog.
Some presenters have serious issues which are portrayed, ie abandonment and narcissism.
All good until you become the reason.
LBC, WAKE UP.

Listen to LBC all the time. But do miss Steve Allen and his ramblings about how he's treated in shops lol

James O'brien is the most competent journalist. I hope more journalists follow his truthful reporting. Well done and continue to stay truthful.

Such a great station, when they’re not playing adverts, how many damned adverts must we listen to? I wish Shelagh Fogarty would stop answering her own questions, I believe it’s called leading the witness in legal circles.

Natasha devon is the person who persuaded me to stop listening to lbc,i really dislike this ladies views and will only give time to people that agree with her,shes especially anti white british and insults people with comments and quickly moves on........i will return when she has left the station.

Iain Pain please give someone else a chance 4am and not the other new guy with glasses. Been listening LBC 16 years

If it were possible to give ZERO stars I would.
LBC is a left wing propaganda platform nothing more.
You only have to listen to the outright lies that the likes of James O'Brien spew out on every episode.

LBC specialises in winding up its listeners, this station never lets facts get in the way of “woke” “lefty” rants.
It’s constantly calling for: bans, regulation, new laws and always advocates censorship of any social media platform that operates under true “freedom of speech”

But the most concerning aspect of LBC is that if you send a WhatsApp message anonymously, it actually ISN’T because their WhatsApp feed works in such a way that collects data from your WhatsApp “set up” and other related “interactions” with Global Companies they instantly know,
your name, address, phone number, email address, IP address (a code given to devices connected to a computer network that uses the internet), username, password, age, gender and date of birth. Bet you didn’t know that!!!

Disgusting channel that wishes to violate rights of privacy. You cant watch with a vpn on which is absolutely ridiculous.

Site nul nul nul.
Site incapable, royaliste.
Suppression de compte infondée sut annonce non interdite.
Imcroyable débilité

14% of listeners rate this station as trustworthy news content the call in staff are rude insulting and the station is a filtering propergander machine for government and agenda bias

It’s not what it used to be, there is too much negativity for my health. I can’t take anymore of the constant hatred, there is no hope or fun just 24hrs of bad vibes, I feel relieved it’s off. How can that be a good business model? It’s all very strange and I think it must affect anyone who listens to constantly.

A very' elderly hostile' station. Childish presenters constantly ranting on about the triple lock and millionaire Pensioners living the high life on Benefit Street. I hope the advertisers who fund this stuff are paying attention.

Disgraceful presenter on national radio absolute Disgraceful the rubbish that comes out of Ian Dale his mouth rude arrogant like a little todler trowing his toys if people dont see things his way guess wat Mr Dale not everyone is gay tory or Jewish it looks to me that anybody else that calls is just there to make fun of and wen he has no more answer's he puts the phone down and ridicules people only one fool here named Ian dale

Unlike some of the reviews (which appear to be for a Courier company not a radio station) are my own experience.

The real issue for me is how they treat you when you call, with complete and utter disdain. The producers treat you like cattle, they have told me at times to change my story in order to get on air (leaning toward their bias).

Recently I called, again told "can you just say X and not mention Y" when Y was the issue in the news.

So I agreed, I was the first person to call, but they kept me waiting a full 56 minutes, only to tell me the show was ending. They said that there was another show coming on after the news and if I could somehow change the reason I called into a Question to their panel I could stay holding.

I did not really understand, the idea is that it is LBC, their moniker is "have your say" but that must have changed. Anyway, when I said I was not sure as I had already been kept waiting for 55 minutes the producer did not say "sorry about that" "Sorry we know you were the first to call on the subject we started in this hour and we left you holding" no she just hung up on me. She did not call me back and I have not called since.

The contempt to caller and listeners continues.

LBC allows obviously fake narratives to be discussed as if they are fact, it does not matter on the issue, they just let it be aired. For example, after four years of war since Russia invaded Ukraine, you would expect LBC to have a crib sheet for presenters to challenge lies. You would expect the producers to be the first line of defence in stopping lies being transmitted. You would also expect that LBC would blacklist people who call up with those lies.

Then we come to the App, LBC advertisers should take note of this.

First of all the app is truly awful, the layout is awful, the navigation is awful, you have to change menu option scroll past rubbish you are not interested in just to get to the schedule, something that should be pinned to one of the 5 buttons at the bottom.

When you use catchup there are further problems, if you subscribe to say your 8 favourite presenters, but have automatic downloads turned OFF, it still downloads them and fills your phone with all these episodes. This led to me unsubscribing, which led to me not listening to LBC.

A really bad mistake in UI design is not to have view of a home page or the navigation on every screen, to load the episodes on catchup you have to tap top right rather than the menu options at the bottom. Then when you get there the navigation is GONE.

I was pleased when LBC announced a dedicated LBC app, the Global Radio app was dire as I previously explained.. So imagine my discontent when I downloaded the new LBC app only to find it is the came crappy Global app, that it is stuffed full of all the other Global stations which I will NEVER be interested in.

To add insult to injury both apps are stuffed with news and video, this slows down the app and it is NOT something I need or want.

The BBC have a NEWS app and a Sounds App, LBC should do the same. If you want a news app then knock yourself out and create one, just don't call it LBC radio app.

Finally the wokewash, LBC is probably second only to the BBC in wokewashing the company. Note the word woke has been stolen from the proper ethnic origins to mean politically correct (to be polite).

Now it is used by Extreme right and Extreme Left as well as disruptors like Trump and Musk.

My concern in how this wokewash applies to LBC is that they have recruited presenters who are diverse but poor at their job. Meanwhile the stalwart presenters are still there but have clearly been told to tone down their opinions. Except perhaps James o'Brian who os nothing more than a bully. I do not delight in seeing callers ridiculed, so I have not listened to him for years. I see his clips on YouTube and only load them to mark them down with a thumbs down.

Natasha Devon is another truly awful presenter with arguments and opinions that appear to be almost a form of self-flagellation.

Vanessa Feltz is no better, so once Ali Miraj is finished there is a huge 6 hour void. Nick Abbot is well past his sell by date.

Ironically LBC has real gems in the form of the Barristers who present the legal hour and the Consumer Hour, they are the second star in this review BUT we need the shows extended to 3 hours and on every night.

It would be easy to find other lawyers, then split each night into an area of law, e.g. Housing (Landlord Tenant and Housing Association), B2B Law, Energy Company disputes, Employment and another Consumer law midweek.

I feel this would provide larger audience than the boring Question rubbish Iain Dale hosts, a massive waste of Iain's skills.

Replacing Andrew Castle with Mathew Right was a mistake

Sadly LBC will not listen, they do not even engage with Trustpilot, but advertiser should take note, read the reviews .the writing is on the wall here.
