Yeah cos I'm sure, given the nature of councils in this country, Limerick Council is a next to a utopian example of how a business should be run..

Today's Show: How Joe Duffy Changed History...

He's fairly triumphalist today isnt he..

ill give him credit though.

he came under alot of preasure back then and got censored for broadcasting what was going on while lenny and co were pulling on green jersesy by the loomload.

due a bit of gloating considering these tapes are bang on that period. i mean i saw people getting banned from sites for saying less.

RoundyMooney

Does he know that Honky Dory isn't a phrase?

Meathlass

Don't agree with that man. I don't see how you can take statutory redundancy off employees because of the actions of their employer.

Meathlass

Any chance you might get to the point any time soon?

JM Skipton

I don't buy this idea of our reputation is damaged in Germany, if the Germans hold an opinion about the Irish based on a couple of Anglo Plonkers well its their problem

JonathanAnon

As a musician myself, I have to agree with this man.. During a financial crisis, it's always the singers and entertainers that are blamed for it.. I remember Charlie Chaplin had a rough time of it in 1929, people kept tripping him and pushing him over his cane..

Just in...Joe trying to turn this into a "ze Germans don't like us anymore" thing is he?

"I listen to Irish radio a lot"

Fair play to you.

It's the looper slot

They'll more than likely never have heard of Ireland.

The Germans can't get too offended to quote Alan Partridge "The more I hear of this Hitler Character the less I like him"

Joe is back after the break with the worrying news that Oirish bars all over Germany are being marked so that passers-by will know the nationality of the owners.

Apparently local hoods are festooning the outsides of these premises with inflated shamrock balloons and harp shaped stickers.

"I don't know how long we can CAWM and visit you for"

What accent is that?

Boombastic

Where is she?

"If I was in charge".
Oh, here we go.
Hanging them by the balls is too good for them, apparently.

Interesting excuse from the relatives to avoid visiting!!

Does Shirley realise she's on air?

DuckHook

Dont call me shirley..

Will the Germans still come to the Gathering?

Meathlass

Crushed? ... bit of an over exaggeration, no?
