    Freebies no doubt for Tubs and himself. Did Jenny make the cut?

    Ray apologizes to Drivetime for being less than a minute late. Yet he doesn't give a shíte about leaving the Nuacht readers hanging for 4/5/6 minutes every day.

    Not happy with butting in all over the woman trying to tell a story. He proceeds to play The Fireman Sam jingle over her mid-sentence.

    Such incredible insights - did you know alcohol lowers inhibitions BUT having a skinful makes it more 'challenging' to actually have sex!!!

    She used to wake up feeling anxious, then she realised drinking the night before might have something to do with it - she's calling this phenomenon a 'Hang Over' because it's like something is Hanging Over you from the previous night.

    Her next book will probably be 'Punching yourself in the face - Good thing or bad thing?'

    Just on the U2 tickets....I've told this story before on Da Lahv Lahn Thread so apologies for those of you who are hearing this for the millionth time.

    I know a few heads in RTE, don't want to identify them for obvious reasons but they're not presenters. They're not at the very top, more middle management types. Most of them are honest enough to admit they're on the pigs back and on incredibly cushy numbers etc. One thing they all have in common is they NEVER pay for tickets to anything, and haven't in donkeys years. This is for any type of sporting or music gig. In the interest of full declaration, I've benefitted twice from this; to a meaningless Rugby friendly and to see Poppa Diddy P Pop and Snoop Dizzle Fizzle in a joint concert at the old O2. As for freebies from Ad Agencies that handled my employer's advertising spend, I've benefitted a lot from them - but that's not RTÉ. There's an astonishing amount of free tickets given to media agencies and outlets for gigs. Paul Williams has joked/passed smart comments about this a lot over his time at Newstalk. And these are never crap tickets btw!

    So to answer the question, there's not a chance in hell Tubs or D'Arcy, or their respective parties paid to go to the U2 gig.




    As an aside, Tubs was only bragging a few weeks ago that Bono sent him a personal note at the Berlin gig apologising for not being able to come out to meet Ryan and his jolly chums because his voice was sore! Do you think Tubs got those tickets on ticketmaster.de? He did in his gee.

    What do you expect from a man who can't spell "Taoiseach"?

    Ah but she's made a business of her crusading. I'd say Ray enjoyed that interview, can't beat it when you're fully in tune and on message with your subject!

    She also brought him to task about the U2 tickets and not having to pay for them,he said he didn't but bought one ticket alright,she then challenged him by saying he didn't have to go onto Ticketmaster to buy it,he stuttered and squirmed his way out of it

    In fairness lads, it wouldn't be right to expect Ray to buy his U2 tickets off Ticketmaster.













    He'd never be able to find the refresh button!

    Ray has to comment on people believing that their deceased family/ friends are looking down on them , what an ass.
    The fact that Ray is on primetime tv and radio makes me believe there is no god. lol

    16:01 Ray finishes his conversation with his 2 guests
    Adverts
    16:03 Nuacht

    1 day the Nuacht team are just going to tell him to f-off. His utter disdain for them and their native gibberish! is so clear to see
