New Radio Margaritaville DJ
As a daily RM listener am I the ONLY one who can't stand hearing the new DJ Jasmine? Her voice, her delivery...it all just grates at my nerves . I miss Carson
Also, Hi everyone! I stumbled across the forum after googling Carson's passing.

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
Can't say I've heard her, yet. But don't listen much more than my drive to and from work. (And welcome!)

Maybe it's just me then I had a hard time learning to like Matt Hoggatt too when he first started. Thanks so much for the welcome!

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
I wouldn't consider myself a fan of Matt by any means...but this Jasmine and her 'valley girl' voice makes me like him MUCH more! Lol

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
My husband (Elrod here on BN) just mentioned that he heard her today, too. Said it was lame and terrible.

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
She really is quite lame! I heard her earlier in the week and thought she was a temporary DJ...I found this forum (and the news about Carson) when I googled her name. Maybe she's just nervous and will get better with time? ~fingers crossed~!

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
Thank you for the welcome! Hopefully, with time she'll improve. It has to be an intimidating job in the beginning, Tonight I switched from Radio Margaritaville to my downloaded albums while she was on.

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
I’m sorry but she sounds like she doesn’t even know who jimmy Buffett is. This has to be her first radio gig.

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
I agree. When I listened to her she seemed clueless about anything Jimmy. Sign me up! I think I would kill itFirefighter4u wrote: ↑September 19, 2018 10:35 am I’m sorry but she sounds like she doesn’t even know who jimmy Buffett is. This has to be her first radio gig.

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
Jasmine and Matt are both just awful. At least Matt knows about Jimmy. I'd love to know how she got the gig.
It was too much tequila . . . . or not quite enough.

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
I only listen to RM in the car and it isn't the only station I listen to so I've never heard the new DJ, or Matt Hoggatt. But I have to say, I like Kirsten a lot more than I used to. When she's on, I'll leave RM on more than when the other DJs are on.
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here

Re: New Radio Margaritaville DJ
I'm not a fan of Matt's by any means, but you're right, at least he has some knowledge about Jimmy and the RM playlist. I simply cannot find a single redeeming quality for Jasmine, though. She sounds downright clueless every time she cracks the mic! Given the fact she's based in Nashville, my hunch is that she's a pal of Kirsten, who I believe makes the programming decisions these days. I do hope she improves, but this is a tough sell right now.
Just randomly ranking the DJs from Best to Worst, I would go with the following...
1) JD
2) Steve H
3) Sara West
4) Kirsten
5-98) Just about anyone with a working vocal chord
99) Hoggatt
100) Jasmine

Side note...is anyone able to record Ravi’s Fruitcake on the Radio segment. A quick glance at replays and it looks like I’ll either be sleeping or working.
