    This !!

    I listened to the interview in the car today, couldnt get over the amounts of "I" and "me" and "we" being used. seriously Ray You are interviewing them, not telling them stories about you.

    That said it was funny the way that Reg D just toyed with him!
    Didnt hear the interview although Im a big reg fan. Reg tends to let idiot interviewers be idiots, and humours them all the way! in the end he has a chuckle to himself and the interview feels great about themselves. Am I right?

    I heard that interview this morning, enjoyed it so much I had to listen to again just now,

    Ray made a complete fool of himself, Reg really showed him up, some of Rays questions were awful, as mentioned earlier, the one about middle age,
    and then when he suggested that Reg didnt tell jokes.....

    Just listened back to the Reg D interview as I wasn't really listening in work. Absolutely hilarious, but in an Alan Partridge type way. Well worth a listen.

    It was both brilliant and cringeworthy at the same time.

    The most hilarious thing ray has unintentionally done in years.

    I particularly liked the reading question that he plucked from god knows where...
    Ray: "Do you ever walk into a library and feel inadequate because you'll never be able to read ALL of the books?"
    RDH: "No"

    What does be going on in his head, I just do not know.

    It's like the aural equivalent of watching the Office. Toe curling stuff.

    Agreed, that was a really strange comment. Freud would have a field day with that one............add that to always going on about his height and baldness. defo inadequacy probs there.

    Though it pains me to defend him, he was sitting in a library at the time.

    I know plenty of non-religious people that have gotten married. What's the problem with that?

    And in answer to the question about what he was reading at the time, RDH had just quipped that he was reading nothing at the moment, because he had read 'em all. So there was a sort of logic to it. But again it seemed like another ill-prepared one side interview.

    Come back Ray, all is......actually its not. The guy standing in is almost as bad as Ray! I am beginning to think it is the whole show (format) I have a problem with.
    Perhaps the presenter(s) dont have any say in who they have on the show to interview?

    As far as radio stations go they do have some really interesting people on to be interviewed at that time of the day, its the presenters interviewing them that's the problem IMO.

    In fairness, he went on air for an interview with Phil Cawley, acted as MC before the Phoenix Park 5Km race, made sure all the preparations were going alright and ran as Pacemaker during the run.

    I think so too, there is no danger of Anton being short or rude with her, like Ray sometimes is

    I listened to the first half hour of Anton this morning and I laughed more than I have from listening to Ray over the last year.

    I loved the way he was comparing the irish claiming everybody as one of us :Dto the Mormons baptisting dead people and also about the sex act that sounds like our national airline

    ray and john duggan what a disaster. cant see they talk at all outside that 5mins. both are two people who think they are better then they are.

    i liked how ray told john that a broken clock is right twice a day. calling john a tipster is a joke, didnt even break even with cheltheman.

    now he asked first clue without testing the buzzers.

    Heard him this morning saying that he really would like to interview Tom Cruise,

    so that he could "interrogate him over Scientology"!!!

    Ray Darcy, asking the questions no one else will!!!

    More likely to ask "so Tom, how tall are you?"
