That's the most cringeworth thing I've ever heard. What does he think he is doing and more importantly why/how are the powers that be allowing this sh1te to continue.
As somebody said earlier who are 2fm and tubridy trying to aim their station/show at. I thought that it was supposed to be rebranded as a 25-44 age group or something last year.

Has Tubbers moved into a travel tavern yet?

barakus

wheels on the bus again this morning fcukin hell:D that and the feckin monkey song he keeps playing. he really is a strange chap! As already said he seems to be going for the housewife market, lot of those ray darcy show style texts about women dancing round the kitchen with their babies:rolleyes:

Actually the only thing I have to turn the radio off for is that 'tune that name' thing with the lads going 'wahey!' every few seconds. christ thats bad.

Ash.J.Williams

Switched on a radio and heard tubs singing 74/75 by the connells like a person would imitate somebody with mental disability and then switched off!! it's only a few seconds long but worth checking out!!

...and why are normal everyday things "old school" to him....like "today i went home and watched the tennis old school" etc... is he from the future?

Tuned in briefly today and yet again getting of on other peoples financial woes (seems to be a regular feature),oh gosh oh jeepers oh golly,yet us taxpayers fund this DLB,and RTE are up the wall in it.RTE if you have not copped on now there is no hope.

rebel without a clue

i am forced to listen to him every morning. i know the show is meant to be light hearted and just a bit of fun, with the odd serious topic thrown in, but jez hes starting to get on my nerves big time. whats with asking people to text/phone in with their fav sad/happy/ whatever songs and then only plays maybe 3 of them? hes a fecker for teasing us with the start of a good song and then cuts it and goes on to something else! when he actually cut halfway through lady gaga song and said he couldnt stick listening to it anymore, that was it for me. im not much of a gaga fan myself but stop a tune because you didnt like it! hes a dj! he supposed to play all kinds of songs whether he likes them or not! (unless your dave fanning-boo too).

yep about 10 months ago, only another 2 months before he clocks his 1st year, very suprised he has survived this long.

celsy

I used to enjoy the show but now it's the same things all the time, cringworthy "banter" with the news reader who sounds like she just wants to tell him to piss off. Bring back toys, sweets & kids programmes from when he was young! Segments on people who can't pay their bills or have a family member who has an illness but don't worry cos he gives them a weekend away or a trip to the late late. His pontification on all things he doesn't like- wedges, flip flops not holidaying in Ireland! Of course the usual Barack Obama, mad men, books. That bloody awful 'tune that name' call in piece of crap! After all that if your not POSITIVE he doesn't want to know about it, sticks his head in the sand, gets in callers who have the same thinking & tries to make it seems like all will be ok!

Celsy i have to agree the standard of the show over the past few weeks has been poor. I felt yesterday that he was just going through the motions and at the end of today's show he said he will somehow have to get through to end of week. I feel that this isn't good enough for someone on his wages, it's hard to imagine Gay letting his standards drop like this. Ryan is letting his fans down. If he needs a break then he shouldn't have taken the BBC gig.I hate writing this but we are entitled to better, more than just filler and music in a two hour talk show.

I'd like to put that down to my powers of persuasion, but it seems Tubridy has done this all by himself..

All the time on the show that used to be filled with Gerry Ryan talking about his wife/kids/etc and swopping personal experiences with the callers... has been filled with Tubridy talking to callers about books, Facebook, Twitter (i.e. anything bar discussing his precious private life).. He NEVER fitted the correct profile to present the show..

It was yet another decision that was more for the benefit of the man himself than the license payer who pay his wages.. Well done again RTE..

Harry Angstrom

I agree with most of the views here and if Ghiertal is getting fed up with him, then that's definitely saying something. I just don't think this sort of show suits him. I don't know if anyone remembers, but about 12 years ago Ryan Tubridy did a Saturday morning show called "Morning Glory" on Radio 1 which I really liked. It was a very quirky show (a mix of arts, books, politics, TV, music, films etc. with weekly guests) and it suited Tubridy's style perfectly. This is the sort of show he should still be doing, not the regular two hour weekday morning slot that G.Ryan vacated. I was no fan of Gerry Ryan but he did seem to be able to click with his audience. I think Tubbers seems to be alienating himself more and more from this audience and I think he knows it. Last week he was slagging people who were slagging him about books and JFK etc.
I still think he does the Late Late Show pretty well as he's a big improvement on Pat Kenny (it seems to have taken Pat about 20 years to realise that he really is a political animal through and through).

I doubt his 2FM radio show will continue if the listenership figures continue to drop but I actually think that he should go back to Radio One to his old slot for an hour each morning replacing the execrable John Murray with another quirky Morning Glory-style magazine show. It's what Tubbers does best.

thats tubbers full stop nothing will change him he should start his own show called ME ryan tubridy starring ryan tubridy,featuring ,nostalgia,twitter,madmen, westwing,boxsets,jfk,sarah palin,bill clinton,obama,ladies shoes,dolls,beatles and jellie beans.
How he could make a show from that mixture i dont know but he does a good job on it with radio, Oh i forgot other peoples misery too.


Pat Kenny (it seems to have taken Pat about 20 years to realise that he really is a political animal through and through)

was watching the frontline other night not my thing but nothing on tv,pat was excellent at giving back abuse to the panel only thing he still is as boring as a peanut.

That's the point I was making Jimmy. His Morning Glory show wasn't the sort of show that needed a large audience share like he needs in his current show on 2FM. It was quirky, left-field and catered for a certain audience (probably me because I'm a bit of a nerd as well). I'm around the same age as Tubridy so I can identify with a lot of his nostalgic reference points but however much RTE try to push him as such, he doesn't have a mass-market appeal when it comes to radio.

dave fanning is starting monday covering for (tubs massive 8 week paid break:mad:) think i should start a thread see what people think.
