Try to be kind

What do you do with a someone who is earnest, enthusiastic, focused -- and terrible. This is how I would describe the DJ of our traditional jazz radio show, a young man who replaced the wonderful Dr. Jazz after he died. This kid reads everything, and not too well. He must write out his entire show ahead of time. He even reads death notices and condolences! I mean, the guy obviously means well and is into the music, but it's become such a pain to listen to him that I find myself changing the station. He talks/reads too much to boot. I feel bad criticizing this guy since he tries so hard, I guess, but can't he say anything, especially something as personal as offering condolences, without sounding like the world's worst reader?
