A 'canAP' at a cocktail party.

Another 'Joeism'!!

Moll'll fix it

I went to see D'Movie last night. I thoroughly enjoyed it, laughed a lot.
Cinema packed.

Harry Angstrom

Joe's favourite places in the world are Stockhullum, Per-hu, and Liz-bonnn.

I was at a match yesterday and had to back to the car twice. Both times they were discussing Suarez. Just now I went to the shed for a smoke, turned on the radio and who are they talking about? Fu*king Suarez.

sudzs

Just tuned in... cannot believe my ears. What am I listening to?? Is it Liveline? Is it Marianne's show with Joe in the chair with BOC a guest??

Harry Angstrom

A dissenting voice from within RTE about Mrs Brown's Boyiz. Joe is apoplectic

snubbleste

Joe is hosting the show now.

Onto D'movie

There must be some sort of schizophrenic fit in the luvvie set over it as like the new transformers film no one gives a fuk what they think .

Areana getting a right mauling Herr .

Joe , you're a guest ,he's trying to take over or this was probably set up, most likely the latter.

RTE needs to put Duffy back in his box here.. Here he is knocking RTE's Arena for reviewing a movie that he himself worked on.... I heard the Arena review and they did not say the movie was racist or homophobic... they did criticise the stock China man character and stereotypical flaming gay character, more for being unoriginal than anything else.... But they did not call the film racist or homophobic ... and Joe should be forced to apologise for this incorrect assertion

It's like when Keane went on MUTV criticising his colleagues... And hopefully it will have the same result for Joe's contract..

Despite what Joe said, Arena don't give films marks out of ten.

There were two panellists, one gave it 1/5 the other 0/5.

Joe doesn't let the facts get in the way of a rant.

Does the lawyer not have a brunch to go to, everyone else is shagging off after collecting their fees.

Oh dear God Hanafin playing the "poor widow" card :rolleyes:

CountyHurler

lol.. cos you're incapable of doing it yourselves.. that put the "poor widow" (on the 140k pension) back in her box...

"girls, girls, girls, girls, girls...." :rolleyes:

I doubt BOC met many people called Sebastian growing up in Finglas

Mary Hanafin: "Don't mind the begrudgers"

I bet she said something similar after the 2011 election.

Joe to BOC "did the program on your own time"

He did it for free? follow that Joe...

Oops69

So Brendan didn't get paid for 2 hrs free advertising for himself ,says joe and were supposed to thank him , I really have a problem with joes moral focus .

Aidric

Ah Brendan you were doing so well, only to undo it all by signing off with a petty swipe.

Callan57

Wouldn't it make you wonder when Hanafin gets so heated about a journo reporting what she ate for breakfast? Pity she cant get as worked up about the misery she was party to inflicting on so many people.

I'm off to send an email to Sean Rocks..

Just saw him on the Graham Norton show. Was not impressed by him at all.
He made quite a few petty swipes at Don Johnson. Mind you, it did not start
well when Don Johnson asked if he and BOC spoke the same language as he
could not understand him!! One of the snide remarks made by BOC seemed to
bother Don Johnson as he said that it was not fair.

I see Marion is appearing on that show "Way To Go: Death And The Irish" on Tuesday night at 9.35pm... Ironically, her appearance on this show is the only evidence in the last five weeks that she hasnt in fact passed on herself.

You'd be forgiven at this stage for thinking that she was the sponsor of "The Marian Finucane Show" and not the presenter.

Indeed, and The Irish Times have picked him up on his casual re-imagining of the reviews

You can hear the Arena reviews on the podcast:
http://www.rte.ie/radio1/arena/podcasts/

Under Thursday 26th, click on Film Reviews and the film is the first reviewed. Now it turns out that the male contributor did use the term "casually racist" and "actually racist" in reference in to "the film"... i.e. the film is casually racist... The comment was made in a semi jocose manner which is why it didnt stick with me. From the way Duffy was talking it was as if the accusation was the centerpiece around which the criticism was based.

To be honest, I dont think any critic would be brave enough to say they liked the film even if they did, for fear they would become the laughing stock of their own profession. Sean Rocks,to be fair to him, does a good job of sitting of being objective, something Joe Duffy could take a lesson from.

CountyHurler

Morning everyone... Anybody listening to The Business (on now, before Marion) talking about the whole Garth Brooks fiasco... this guy from Aitken Promotions... "I cant think of how I could have done anything differently"..... How about not selling tickets for a concert that you dont have permission for ????

Garth Brooks now refusing the first three gigs could be a big problem for Aitken Promotions. They can say that planning permission was refused for the last two gigs, so their disclaimer on the tickets about "planning permitting pending" will cover them for those two. But they DID have planning permission for the first three gigs, and it was the decision of Garth Brooks not to go ahead with these gigs. That could be played out in the courts.

How long before Joan Burton gets a stupid giggle out of Aine , usually doesn't take much but it could be a challenge interviewing 'Moan'.

Not a man in sight today.... Turns out that Aine is more misandric that Marian herself.. Kind of reminds me of:

But how often are there all-male panels?
Also, Joan Burton has just been elected leader of the Labour party, it's the first item in the show.
You're being disingenuous.

Todays show is brought to you by the "return the lab party to gov " and the misandrists of Ireland society .

In Internet slang, a troll is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic remarks..

Sort of like us really..

Harry Angstrom

Moan Burton living up to her name. I'm sick and tired of her playing the sexist card at every opportunity she gets.

constitutionus

Yeah but what's a "trol" ?
As Joan keeps saying .

Ah and on to special treatment for wimin in debates again . God forbid they take the same flak as anyone else .

I'm off this is beyond listening .
