    Noel not getting away without telling Ray what age he is. Height next, then kids.

    Well over a half hour on pubic hair now, every pay cheque he gets must be considered a bonus.

    I know its been said time and time again, but I really think this was a new low. absolute pits, to give airtime to such rubbish.

    Ray didn't apologise, today fm did.
    Ray just read out the statements.
    He didn't sound contrite anyways.

    Wasn't that MND item on ages ago - like before Christmas?
    Maybe the offending piece was on another day - But I can't remember him saying anything very wrong that particular day - and I am sure Today FM will have lifted the offending piece from their podcast library long ago. I'd say Ray has spent months protesting that neither he nor the station should have to apologise - and now he's been forced to.

    Nah, it's pretty much standard practice to just read out a clarification or correction or whatever. Sure, if he were to say, "Hey, remember that time I said *ya-de-yada?*", he'd be in very hot water as he'd be repeating, and re-airing the offending remarks. Not cool, as far as radio bosses and/or legal peeps are concerned.

    So we learned that Jenny is like a forest since she pushed out the sprog and Ray's manscaping and the stubble that returns soon after has caused her great irritation in the past.

    Delightful.

    I think what killed Tom Dunne originally on Newstalk was having Joe Donnelly as producer.

    How so?

    Yet another really stupid concept of a competition.

    A couple of mindless comments about Alan Shatter and Nuala Carey.

    I did enjoy the Mick Wallace interview.

    totally agree about Mick Wallace interview...... Ray doing all the licking up again in his starstruck way "Mick this Mick that" like they are best buddies. I find it hard to take when Mick Wallace got away with so much. We have short memories.

    Wow, I wasn't expecting Ray to be so openly critical of the Eurovision entry this morning between 9-10. It was sort of nice to hear him say it as opposed to just saying the usual "Ah we were unlucky." or "Didn't she do us proud?" plámás.

    Mairead must be off on a Friday so, come Monday he will be back with his expert opinion on the waste of tax-payers money that is the Eurovision…

    Yea mairead wasnt there, she was part of the Mentor program a couple of years ago so expect a very different tune when she is back. In my opinion she is the weakest part of the team, she is reality TV, no talent barring fame itself. Will is bad jokes and random knowledge. Jenny kelly seems to try and roll back ray these days but Mairead is vapid idiot tv star.

    She will find some way to defend the Selection process and Ray will agree so long as Mairead is part of it.

    The best you can hope for is that Ray will give out about it and nothing will be saidd about Mairead's input in the whole as its the RTE process as usual.

    "Isn't it mad as a country that something like Donald Trump arriving in Ireland would be on the news?" Ray asks, after interviewing a member of the band who played to greet Trump at Shannon Airport
