Still funny and better than most lunchtime radio shows!
I know they joked on the podcast one day that they were saving all the good stuff for 98 (in a kind of a "that's not actually what we're doing, we've actually just go no material" kind of way) but I'm starting to think they've just checked out and are planning stuff for the new show as well as planning for their last few shows on Today FM and don't really care about these few weeks.0 -

Ditto.
I want them to bring back The Big Game.
"Ok, the time starts now... So how're you caller? Any news?"
"IT'S AGAINST THE CLOCK!!"
"Going anywhere nice on holidays?"
"IT'S AGAINST THE CLOCK COME ON!!!"
"Ok. Question one. Where-"
*siren*
"Aw! We're out of time... but we'll give you the prizes anyway!" 0 -

Ray and JP handled it well though, I hate hearing people curse on air, throws the flow of the show off but the lads were able to make it funny, letting on they were taking his number down and passing it on to the radio watchdog or whatever. (I forget the official name
) 0 -

I was watching on the webcam when that happened and Ray did take the guys number down....not sure what he was going to do with it though! 0 -

Finally someone asked me!!
:p:p
He mentioned the 'houseguest' a couple of times, then when talking to Solar Taxi he asked them about the merger of Waterford City and County Councils because he had been told about it by his houseguest 'Mary' who lives in Waterford, but stopped himself then.
I'm not sure if he stopped because he didn't want to say too much about 'Mary' or if he realized he was babbling and it wasn't good radio?!
Putting my detective hat on for a minute, this is what I have deduced...
(just a bit of fun, before anyone thinks I'm a looper)
- I reckon 'Mary' is Mary O'Neill, part of a highly successful regional Breakfast show with two other male presenters for the last few years on Beat FM 102-103 in Waterford
- The breakfast show was very similar in tone to what Foley & Co. do at lunchtime and Mary was very good at what she did, and also had a solo cultural radio show spot on Sunday mornings and read the news
- Mary has recently left her job at Beat 102-103 baffling everyone as she (and the show) was so popular in the South East
- Foley said in an old podcast that he often had the craic with the Beat Breakfast crew at events like Oxigen etc, especially Mary iirc
- Open to correction by Nolan here but he did say Ann and Adele wouldn't be coming with the lads
My theory is Mary with her experience as a trio at breakfast will join Ray and JP as their producer at 98fm with an on-air role and that she was a houseguest of Ray so they could have a chat in person about what the new show will entail etc etc.:D I'll laugh if it actually happens now though!

That's either:
a). actually one of the most insightful and well thought out posts I've read in a long time
OR
b). someone with WAY too much time on his hands to think about stuff like this...
:P :P :P
But you're right, pretty sure Adele and Ann won't be joining them (they steadfastly refuse to answer when listeners emails ask), so this is a real possibility.
Let's hope if it is true that she'll play a role on air as well. I love shows where the producers are on air as well.0 -
I'd like to think its option a!
It's funny though, the 2 male presenters Niall & Vinny divide opinion the same way Ray and JP divide option, people either love them or think they're plonked but Mary was nearly universally liked, she reigned the boys in like Adele did with Ray n JP but was much more able to have the craic with them too like Ann did!
I think she'd be a great addition, I loved her Sunday morning show! She'd definitely 'fit in' with the lads, I just wonder would she suit a Dublin audience, she knows her stuff but the breakfast show worked because one was Waterford, one from Wexford and she's from Kilkenny and a lot of their 'shtick' revolved around the rivalry. Wait and see I suppose!0 -
