    If Fergus Darcy is a "content creator" then i'm a rocket scientist

    And it's only €1250 for 10wks x 3 hrs with ferg, alison and the gang on 'creating content'.
    If that floats your boat, i also have some magic beans for sale at the low low price of €100...

    D&D say stuff that suits the music, presumably thats all pre scripted?

    No, Dermot is an improv comedian so that's his forte and it's one of the ways they've built that into the show.

    That's a bit of a stretch now. :pac:
    Technically i guess he is, the question of whether he's actually any good at it however is debatable.

    Why why why is there a quiz on this week where you have to fake laugh your way through it?!

    I've seen Dermot live countless times and he is an excellent improv comedian. He's a bit weird at times but excellent nonetheless.

    The Radio show, but live. Noni, Tony Cas, Say stuff etc. I really enjoyed it when they did it last year.

    Has anyone heard the advert for the TodayFM school that is coming up.

    Where some of their staff are giving lessons in how to do it right on the radio.

    You wouldn't believe who says that being a great interviewer is a skill and that they will teach you how to do it?

    Alison Curtis!!!!

    I sh1t you not.

    So she's an expert radio interviewer is she?

    I remember when Anton Savage did that ad, then after he left she read out his lines word for word🀦ðŸ»*♂️

    I used to like say stuff that suits the music but Dave is just so annoying with the forced laughter. It's like adding laugh tracks to programmes....it just tricks you into thinking it's funny.

    That Noni thing is cringe. so so bad.

    Is that the weird euphemistic word that the Outhere Brothers used on their song "Boom Boom Boom" back in the mid 90s?

    Noni is a great creation. His Diarmuid Gavin stuff was absolutely brilliant, especially when he talked to Diarmuid Gavin. I do t think Rachel Allen knew what to make of his impression of her. She did seem to enjoy it......my Mehxicaaaahno.......:pac:

    I've met James Patrice, but you don't hear me banging on about it do you? Apart from this post of course!

    Dermot and Dave are doing the quiz where you have to keep laughing throughout it, I had to turn off the radio. Who in their right mind thought that was a good idea

    I don’t think she’ll ever be back. Nothing overly talented about her or special that you couldn’t get by plucking some girl from iradio,spin or Red Fm and when she has a new born leaving for work at stupid o clock won’t appeal I wouldn’t imagine

    the only thing is, she would nearly be home by the time aidan has to go to work so it might suit that way
