NRJ, feverish leader. According to the results of the November-December 2024 wave, published by Médiamétrie this Thursday, January 9, 2025, “Manu dans le 6/10” gave momentum to 573,000 listeners in the last two months of 2024. Over one year , the morning show, presented by Manu Lévy since 2011, attracts 77,000 listeners. The entire show suffers with the exception of the first half hour (6-6:30). Between 8 a.m. and 8:15 a.m., the time at which the program reaches its peak, NRJ can only count on 833,000 listeners compared to 951,000 last year (- 118,000). A little before, between 7:30 a.m. and 7:45 a.m., the differential over one year climbs to 141,000 listeners (906,000 in November-December 2023 compared to 765,000 in November-December 2024).

Also a radio from the NRJ group, Nostalgie retains its runner-up position. “Nostalgia mornings” with Philippe and Sandy were a hit 357,000 listeners, a stable score over one year (+4,000). The improvement in its scores between 6:45 a.m. and 8 a.m. – up to +97,000 listeners between 7:45 a.m. and 8 a.m. – is thwarted by the difficulties encountered by the show between 8:15 a.m. and 9 a.m. (-78,000 listeners on average at this intersection over one year).

Unlike last year, the Fun Radio morning show – and not that of Skyrock – accompanies NRJ and Nostalgie on the podium. With its 278,000 listeners between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. (+ 16,000 over a year), “Bruno sur Fun Radio”, one of the three music radio morning shows to make progress over a year, is chasing “Le Morning de Difool”. With 33,000 fewer listeners than a year ago (254,000 on average between 6 a.m. and 9:15 a.m.), the Skyrock show, almost 25 years old, lost people along the way. Especially between 8 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. (436,000 last year compared to 328,000 today; -112,000).
Frontally, rap and RnB radio is more than ever under threat from the pop rock sound of RTL2, followed by 252,000 listeners on average between 6 a.m. and 9:15 a.m. “Le double espresso”, served by Greg Ascher and Justine Salmon on the sister channel of RTL, is indeed on a good dynamic: the show, co-broadcast on W9, gives tone to 247.000 listeners on average between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. (+18,000 over one year).
Benjamin Castaldi and Europe 2 once again beaten by Bruno Roblès and Laughs and Songs
Beyond the top 5, RFM’s “The Best of Alarm Clocks” and Chérie FM’s “Le Réveil Chérie” are both experiencing a bad wave with audiences down respectively by 34,000 and 24,000 listeners over one year. As in September-October 2024, “Le Morning du Rire” from Rire et mots is more listened to than “Castaldiéveille la France” from Europe 2. These morning shows, almost decreasing every quarter of an hour between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m., all count two less than 100,000 listeners in this strategic tranche.
Note that between 7 a.m. – Benjamin Castaldi’s arrival time on Europe 2 – and 10 a.m., his morning show brings together exactly 94,000 listeners compared to 134,000 a year earlier (- 38,000). Europe 2 is in crisis: over the entire day, only 12 quarters of an hour are up over a year. The Lagardère group station is listened to by fewer than 500 listeners according to Médiamétrie between 4:30 a.m. and 5 a.m. and 10:45 p.m. and midnight.
