    Ever since I read about Terry Prone's "Body clock" in the Irish independent Health section last July I cannot take her seriously. Here is a link

    He's in his 'pretentious arty farty wannabe' element now, talking to Gavin Friday.....the prince of pretentiousness.

    I heard Fisk on this morning using every opportunity to have a cut at the US/Israel/The West in general.

    If Fisk had his way the West would sit back whilst the madmen in the terrorist cells used no go areas to build up to nuclear capacity.

    How this guy has any credibility is beyond me to be honest.

    Thank God most common sense people are not fellow travellers.

    So between Liveline yesterday and PK today, I know that Ballagh doesn't like the Americans or the Queen. It's handier than reading wikipedia!

    Ballagh showed himself up quite a bit there I have to say. Personaliased attacks on old ladies rarely works. He is also a hypocrite anyway having designed bank notes for the Free State.

    No doubt is on some kind of artist's exemption from John Q Taxpayer.

    Living comfortably and dissing everything around him.

    Sickens me,along with his many fellow travellers.

    jaysus this lad from board gais is getting slaughtered right now.

    rightly cornered on why were getting a 20% increase when one of his subsidiarsy is flogging it cheaper than its been sold here now in the north.

    refuses to say its cheaper by the way, just says its "competetive"

    ya have to laugh.

    not happy about being called on the price of electricity they flog going up now theyve got loads of people from ESB either.

    That guy from Bord Gais is a disgrace. He sounded totally pissed off, was he jarred or what? and his 'don't ask me questions' attitude had me furious. His tone reminded me of Biffo after his night out and all he wants us to do is just pay the increase and shut up!

    Just listened to the podcast and it does remind me of the Brian Cowen interview. He sounded like someone who had had a few. He was almost out of breath at the end of every sentence, and sounded very tired. I'm sure it could be just the normal way the guy speaks - but it makes me wonder how he could land a job as a spokesman.

    I didn't see it either but I doubt it could have been as embarrassing as Marie Louise O'Dramatic.

    She's never any other way of course. Did you hear her when she went to Mayo after Enda Kenny was made Taoiseach? It was one of the most patronising pieces of broadcasting I've ever heard.

    It was supposed to be representative of 'us',

    'it was designed to showcase the best in Irish music and culture'. Harry Crosbie

    The best??? Please! What we got was the lowest common denominator Bord Failte pap and Gaybo needlessly dragged out of retirement to boot!

    I did hear it indeed.

    As a West of Ireland person myself I wasn't happy with her description of the place and its people.

    Sent a text to the programme to voice my complaint.

    If fairness to PK, he did read out my text. (Along with a plethora of other complaints that day.)

    I normally like Olivia O'Leary but reading out her DriveTime radio column to a live audience, that had been just watching live dancing and singing, seemed one dimensional... And referring to the Queen in the third person when she was front row centre looking at the thing was inappropriate and disrespectful..

    I agree, It was her DriveTime column from a few days earlier with a few bits tagged on.

    They could at least have used some original material.

    Still, it wasn't as bad as Mary Byrne's performance.
