No thanks for the memories
Getting a little concerned with 1010's John Moore.
I never listen to the entire show, maybe just about half an hour around the nine AM slot, but I have noticed he is often forgetting names and other details, but especially names of famous people.
This morning he was discussing the P Diddy incident where he's acknowledged attacking his girlfriend on video.
Moore got the music star's name right, but then went on to talk about other stars who have abused women.
He referred to Chris Brown as The man who attacked Rhianna, and R Kelly as the one who sang I think I can fly.,
Both times his producer cut in to say the names.
He also referred to Cassie Ventura "the woman" that Diddy attacked.
At one point he said out loud, that it looks like this is going to be one of those mornings when I can't remember anything.
Anyway I hope he's alright, but maybe getting a bit burned out doing the morning grind.

Re: No thanks for the memories
I've noticed this too, and it's been going on for a while.
Not to be alarmist, but he frequently refers to his dad, who passed away after a battle with dementia. That can run in families. I hope it's not a sign of things to come and that he's just overtired because of the terrible hours. (Fatigue can affect your memory.) And memory does get a bit worse as you age, so it could just be that.
But perhaps he should get himself tested, just in case. It can be slowed down if it's caught early.
I like the guy on air and I hope he'll be there for a long time to come.

I've noticed it for a while, but just figured he was as bored as the rest of us. Hopefully, that is all it is.

I doubt very much that Chris Brown and R Kelly are on John's Spotify playlist so I wouldn't expect his recall to be 100% here.
If he's going to talk about it, he should know who he's talking about. Otherwise, don't bother.

This one trick could defeat seventy-five percent of news-talk broadcasters.
