Poor Clive on LBC

I dunno if it's the pirate interference more or less drowning out LBC on 97.3 across most of London, or if it's the new bland format, but for one of the first times ever I heard Clive Bull desperately and constantly barking for callers. Now, his shows over the decades have always had back to back callers.

Since the new bland station sound with all personality and individuality removed from the presenters, the numbers bothering to call has surely dwindled. Now, for a station that is solely reliant on callers to make up its output, this is not a good thing. Is this really the end for LBC?
