Either someone from here is texting in or Will Hanifin or Cupid Kelly are reading this thread and making up texts for D'Arcy to read out.

I'm waiting for the AA roadwatch bulletin to hear about a raft of trucks crashing throughout the country, due to tears rushing down the face of the 6ft7" 18 stone driver.


And did anybody notice Ray saying this morning that the job of a judge is one he wouldn't like. He reckons it would not be nice to have to judge people every day. I had to laugh.

Jesus he is reading some letter that seems to be for about 10 mins now. I'm out anyway, his show had got brutal.

To be fair I thought it was a great email. I'm sure there are people out there that will get some positivity and encouragement from it.

There are people out there that are struggling with things that we know nothing about big or small, it seems she has touched a lot of people with it. If she can help someone with it good on her, at least she is doing something good rather that bitching on here about every detail.

I am off out for my walk now.

Awaiting the onslaught of people now giving out about the texters saying they are crying.

Ah why in Gods name did he have to read that entire letter for 10 mins. It's the biggest load of waffle about the typical Today FM listener.

because that letter was really touching, and a lot of people can relate to feeling like that at times in their lives, if you don't like it, why are you listening? just zone out if you hate the show that much....

that text was in response to the letter above, as it was said in the email.

Ray talking about the lotto "They need to jizz it up" and he starts laughing like a 14 year old with the sexual innuendo. What a gob****e.

DuckStabbbbb!!!! Was that you that sent in the 10 min email.
If not, then I have a new hero.

I realise that, but seriously the amount of "tears running down my face" with or without snot, people who listen and text in makes me wonder...do you honestly believe that so many people are so affected by emails from strangers that they spend a portion of every day bawling their eyes out??
I certainly don't.

Weird, that quote didn't work out as expected...

I enjoyed Rays mini mix live this morning hopefully he sticks too things like this more often as it's what made me love the show in the first place!

Davy

Heard the start of the show this morning, and once again he plays 10 seconds of a song and decides its to late and has to go to a break. It is hands down the most annoying thing about the show........:mad:

Playing the song before of after the break takes the same amount of time, other shows can take 2 breaks close together when they need too.../rant

This is what D'Arcy, Hanafin, Cupid, Mairead and Pamela are paid good money to produce.

I don't understand why people, usually truckers, electricitians and carpenters, feel the need to include their profession in a text unrelated to their profession.

"Great song Ray" from John the sparks.

"Love the show Ray" from frank the chippie. And so on.

Wtf is that about.

The texts are made up. Hanafin and Cupid make them up and hand them to Ray

You do know that not everyone has read the papers by that time of the morning and the newspaper companies themselves are happy he does so as it encourages people to go out and buy one

do you think that makes people buy a paper?? your either a paper reader or your not. its just lazy and it waste's 10-15 mins at the start of the show.

I said encourages people to buy a paper. The reason being if there's a story in a paper that he reads a snippet of that somebody is interested in then they may go out and buy the paper to read the rest of it. And yes this does happen and does work.
There are plenty of people that are occasional paper readers.

well do you know what guys? I really miss Gerry Ryan. ...... I know he had his bashers but I really liked him cos he was 100% honest. Yeah he talked about his kids and wife - but I dunno it just never annoyed me as much as Ray D'arcy. He could have his smutty jokes, innuendos and laughs but it was as an adult - not a sniggering schoolboy. You always knew Gerry had his demons and his faults. I remember feeling sad for him when I heard his marriage broke up cos he was such a family man...I always felt that would literally break his heart. He was a in a different class to Ray D'arcy and ironically Ray's show only took off when Gerry died.

Gerry was the absolute king of morning radio. If Gerry was still around D'Arcy would be a far far second place in the rating

Gerry Ryan was a cock. The only person on Irish Radio that is good with easy going chat is Sean Moncrief. He'd rule if he was on the morning slot on RTE 1 or 2 or Today fm imo.

It's been said before on this thread a while back that plenty of people around the country have no choice but to listen to the show as it's on the radio where they work.
