Are you a "Puffin denier" too?

The message was that it's not necessary to constantly obsess over covid.

And Tubridy sitting there nodding in agreement like a morón despite having spent almost every radio show and LLS since February talking about the virus.

Like Mr. Duffy, he had to check which way the wind was blowing with this contributor before committing to an interjection there.

I hardly think about Covid


Ha I wonder what bad guy koolaid Covid drinker tubs encountered this week

Sam Cooke is "just, delicious" now.

What's this puffin denial crap? It's like some annoying teen trying to sound quirky, Jesus Christ.

ButtersSuki

A delicious song.

You should listen back to Dara from yesterday if you want "quirky".

That's mature for him.

Wonderful, not content with our own Chief Medical Officer, Tubridy thinks the Irish public want to hear from America's Chief Medical Officer on a Friday evening.

I get what he is doing. It's the kind of game you play with a four year old or your hormonal teen. I just don't get why he is doing it on air. Another affection perhaps. Or after last week's state of the nation address on LLS is he hoping to be crowned Ireland's Dad?

Who we turn to in times of trouble for self absorbed tales of gum drops, books, JFK, strange affectations and wonderfully beautiful but peculiar remenisisng of everyday encounters with people.

I actually heard some presenter on one of the other radio shows big up Ryan's monologue at the start of the LLS show last week.

Can't remember the exact wording or who it was (another rte luvvee though) but it was basically along the lines of "did you hear RTs powerful message to the nation on the LLS " ....they all love to pat each other on the back in rte. Makes them all feel like they earn their wages.

"In order, as he says, to get it 'into your bones', I've been driving along with the lyrics sitting on the passenger seat, blaring this track and singing like a demented person. Because it's a big song, and it asks a lot of the poor creature singing it.

"But we're getting there, so I'm going to meet Jim after this show for yet another go at it. He has the patience of many, many saints. Many."

This thread has picked up some traction in the last month.

Maybe knowing that Ryan Tubridy is a regular lurker is intoxicating for some posters.

Now THAT’s what I’d call an eclectic line-up. (Emphasis courtesy of Ryan himself)

Fauci - interesting - but probably on for <5 minutes. Kellie Harrington - great attitude, saw her before and she was infinitely more engaging than Ryan - 5 or 6 minutes if we are lucky.

Jedward - Dear Lord - 25 minutes of cringemaking insanity

15 plugs for the Toy Show, and what spiffing great fun and jolly japes it will be

All preceded by the 15 minute Sermon on the Mount Montrose from our host, the Toyman, lecturing us on how to behave.

Good Luck!

This year's apt theme for Late Late Toy Show

I have a suspicion that he is modelling himself on a parody of what we think of him, it's the only explanation of why he's getting worse over time. I imagine he might be saying "they thought I was BAD, I'll show them what BAD actually is, <insert manic laugh> let them eat cake, they are paying for me through their taxes".

Jedward are only on cos of their recent tweets - great selection there Tubridy.
Oh and they tweet approved stuff like mask wearing with accompanying pic of said mask hanging off one of their twinny chins and that JK Rowling's books should be burned beacuse she's a ... <well, you know the kind of mind numbing sh1t zeleb twitterers tweet>
I wonder will Ryan Be Kind Tubridy ask them about the old delicious book burning and misogyny towards JKR?
Hmmm.
In other news, I suspect they have a CD to hawk (hence the recent tweets)

I'd agree with Cat that there is an element of trying to wind up his critics (including those on this thread), which IMO is a defence mechanism that thinly veils an awareness that he doesn't have anything substantial to offer audiences.

He's not a respected political analyst or film/book critic. He's not a comedian. He's not known for being a good interviewer. He's not an expert on anything. He's just a privileged waffler.

On some level he knows this, so he's desperate to brand himself as the eccentric Willy Wonka Toyman. Or BookMan. Or NerdMan. Or 'JimmyStewartMan.

And who could forget the 'Conscience of the Nation' persona. The fella who commends the people of Ireland for being 'good eggs' and scolds others for being mean like a third class múinteoir. He has really spotted an opportunity to ramp this one up with covid. That's why he's getting up people's noses more than ever.

He's just a a puppet. He just spouts whatever he believes will keep him his job. There are many many far talented people who would be far more suited to both his radio and TV jobs, but they wouldn't be as well behaved as him. It is such a shame because imagine how much fun the Late Late would be with Tommy Tiernan or something with an ounce of humour, spontaneity and courage.

Does Ryan's studio really have a CRT tv on the wall, honestly what a bloody kip of place that should be leveled to dust.
