    He is taking a lot of holidays so far this year. Surely he can't be that over worked and stressed, doing what he does...basically having the craic!

    Marty seems like a nice enough fella, but sounds bland as butter, compared to the usual three in that spot

    foley and his 'team' are plagiarizers

    they might impress a few greenhorn bogwater slurpers but that will not take him very far

    sad sad show

    You're right about the plagiarism.
    The celebrity news bit with stories made from puns of their names is a rip off of Stewart Lee and Rich Herring in the nineties.

    The whole show is a (poor) rip off of Steve Wright's show.

    so who else is doing anything more interesting and fresh than Ray Foley and his team in the same slot every afternoon? At least they have a laugh, and are enjoyable to listen to.

    Doubtful there are many anoraks out there listening to RFS from 12-2.30 who remember Stewart Lee and Rich Herring in the nineties? I certainly don't

    But in fairness they acknowledge that they are ripping off the guys they listened to on radio. Even the Fun Bus a few weeks back was a rip off of the Aussie lads.

    Not the greatest show on radio by a long shot but the only one worth listening too at lunchtime. And with D'Arcy taking a more serious tone now I kinda like the stupidity of it all for a couple of hours. Just to get a break from the constant reminders of the sh*t we're in.

    They were discussing Mix It Friday, which is part of the Foley show ... so it was still on topic.

    I liked "My mate, Niall" Boylan's mixes, but Paul Carass' ones are pretty class too, it must be said - good work, fellah!

    I feel 'Mix it Friday' is just a easy cop out of the show for Foley,not denying the quality of Niall or Pauls mixing for a moment,just feel it's not a great thing for a friday at 2pm.

    "On Friday lunchtime, we'll play you lots of dance.
    We think it's cool, even if you think it's pants!"

    Friday is pretty much a "feck it, it's the weekend!" show. The first hour is as normal, now that Lazy Radio is gone, but then there's the Happy Hour and then Mix.

    I think it fits in pretty well, gets me really pumped :D

    it seems everything he does or says gets the same reaction..... so and so did that already, etc.
    that criticism could probably be leveled at every radio show everywhere at this stage.

    True. He's quite the plagiarist, and he doesn't hide it. However the bits he's nicked from other shows and done again on his show are bits that most of his listeners won't have heard before and are bits he does quite well.

    Not really, no. His show is different to most on Irish radio. Plus, personality wise, Ray on the radio is quite... marmitey. He can't help it :)

    i'm neither defending nor denigrating the show, just pointing out that all the items they do on the show have been done elsewhere before. the easy quizzes, the funbus thing, the eh, yeah or ok bit. also i wasn't just thinking of irish radio. in this day and age there aren't any radio shows that are truly original.
