    "The priority of every politician is self preservation. "

    Why did you move back to RTE again Ray, after giving out about RTE for ten years?
    Ireland's greatest hypocrite.

    "His anniversary is coming up soon. I suppose that will be especially traumatic for you."

    No, Ray. I'm thinking of throwing a party.

    Ray plays a Morrissey track about someone being in a coma just after talking about a motor neurone sufferer who went through euthanasia - just didn't seem right !

    Mick Mc Carthy interview felt a bit awkward.

    That girl who took her baby traveling on her mat leave was just on the last word, WOW what a different interview.

    No talking down, a sense of wonder at how she did it, interesting questions and you could tell from her voice that she enjoyed the interview.

    The Mick McCarthy interview was rubbish because outside of being a fanboy for rugby Darcy knows very little about sport. Very badly researched interview.

    Common theme throughout rays career. Probably mick mccarthys fault.

    Probably say mick wasn't as relaxed and didn't come across as well as expected.

    half an hour into his show the other day and he managed to mention his daughter Kate, his father and his wife Jenny! If this was local radio of 30 years ago it might be quaint but this guy gets 10 grand+ per week for this tripe.

    Well except for Alison Curtis. She never shuts up about her kids too. That said, it's kinda her schtick.

    Had the misfortune to hear the part of the show the other day when his dad was on radio giving out his pancake recipe?

    I mean. wtf???? And at the end it was all 'see you Da' 'see you Ray', it was like listening in to someones private phone call.

    RTE need to wake up and get rid of this guy. He is embarrassingly bad.

    Ray D'Arcy is not comfortable on this show. That is clear to me.

    He is doing it for the money, not much else AFAIS. He seems to be peed off just for being there. Cue the messing with the buttons and the unprofessional talk about fekkin Jenny all the time.

    Anyway, this is the dead few hours on radio. But it needn't be. How about a bit of Travel, cooking, ah you know...interesting stuff to keep your mind off the bills. BBC R4 is the business. RTE radio should have a peek over there for some inspiration.

    Does he really need the money ? All he does is run and eat porridge - doesn't exactly live an exciting life !

    Think ray could be Ireland's dullest man? Hope there's not another w end newspaper interview with him where he makes himself sound even worst.
