It's the grip he has on her left arm that gets it for me. Yes, Miriam, I know you want to get away Miriam, but you're going nowhere till I mark my spot.

It's the pincer "are-you-fcuk-going-somewhere-till-I've-had-my-fun" grip also favoured by Shane Ross. Look at his grip technique on Annalise Murphy; impressive.

From A for arrested to Z for zip tie handcuffs.

Joe will be doing his 'research' about GameCon on boards.ie. Only question is how long will it take him to spot the pun in "Con" and con, so to speak.

Will Joe do a Chuck Berry tribute show featuring Brush, Paddy, Doc SYL etc?

I wouldn't mind a few CB choons, but the usual LL tribute experience will turn it into a mess.

Sounds like an angry Dub skanger meets angry Dubalin Taxi Driver meets Trade Union Representative. In udder wurds, a dream caller so to speak.

Duffy is ruining the history show on rte radio 1 plugging his new buke. "The wimmins that did die in da rising."

PeterTheNinth

Duffy on with Myles Dungan now... Introducing his follow up project to searching the birth certs for 1916. You're all gonna be surprised, it's about death.

I stopped listening to liveline to not have to hear his voice and here he is ruining one of the few shows I still listen to.

PeterTheNinth

Hey ItsSoEasy, you bet me to it.... What is wrong with Duffy... Would he not prefer to spend time with his kids or bring his missus to the latest Mrs Brown's Boys, rather than trying to investigate the deaths of people from over 100 years ago.. The man has issues, he should ring in to Liveline himself, or maybe ring Frasier Crane.

I'm suprised myles is giving him the time. Myles you can tell is well read in lots of the topics he covers but Duffy seems to be obsessed with death.

Itssoeasy

He dropped the civilian men that died in the rising might be his next project. Jesus he needs help.

PeterTheNinth

No doubt we can look forward to another 12 months of him shamelessly plugging and referencing the latest work on Liveline.

Itssoeasy

Okay bye Joe. Shag off and stop ruining my Sunday evening.

I'd say graveyards and funerals must be like a bus man holiday for the duffer.

Yeah, he has a fascination with death, how people died, how their remains were handled and how they were buried.

The new book is being done for a few reasons:

• It covers his fascination with death
• Easy to research
• Plenty of cash in it for him, due to his ability to promote it free of charge with RTE and other media outlets
• He gets to play the part of a 'learned scribe', and 'artist', so to speak and can indulge himself in that he belongs to a group of people that he dearly wants to belong to.
• He obviously got no help with the "Children of the Troubles" book that he promotes via his Twitter and it's a subject that's been covered in books before. Also the 'RA heads in Belfast will be told not to help him "research", due to his hatred of SF.

If I had the time, I'd write a book on the exact same topic, and have it out before his, just to plss him off.

We may need to set up a "Wimmin of the Rizing" thread and announce every time he promotes his book or research free of charge on the Radio & TV. Maybe a little counter to go along with it.

Also an online petition to keep Irish jobs here so he gets his book printed in Ireland this time out.

ButtersSuki

Is he not doing de Childers dat did doyed in De Trubbles? He certainly was planning to do that so to speak - he has both spoken and tweeted on it. My suspicion dat de Nordies told him to feck off back to the free state may not have been wrong...

I remember seeing a picture of a cover.

Dan Jaman

This is just the next installment of a ten volume opus.
He'll be covering the De Paper Boyz What Did Doyed in De Rising in the next part, followed up by Peepul Who Stood at de Corner of Parnell Square that Did Doyed in de Rising.

I think he's concentrating too much on one thing. There is a fairly sharp plunge in the sales figures of potboilers.
A nice little steady earner for him would be "Graveyards of Ireland, and de Peepul What Doyed to get in Dem."

Hitchens

"De Day Dat Bang Bang Shot Forty Coats Over A Bowel Of Coddle"

Jew to de fact dat de ghost writer of de Weekly Column is not feeling de best and dat dare'll be no Weekly Column dis week says I. I'm sorry to disappoint de regular readers so to speak, but me health is more important. I'm in bed now and I don't even have Skoy Sports to watch to help with me ree-kuper-ashun.

ButtersSuki

He's also overestimating the interest in a buke about de Rising after de centenary so to speak. I'd imagine he'd be doing well to get 20% of the sales of the last buke in a non commemorative year, but he won't give a Fock as the advance cheque will long have cleared before Hatchette realise their mistake and it's being pulped or in Dealz for €1.50. There's a depth to his shallowness.

Got to hear part of this show. Did I hear right he thanked two men out in Glasnevin cemetary who gave him access to records the public don't get to see.

Caught de promo for de furst time in a long time so to speak:

1. GamerCon - where are you "Ferdy"? Ferdy was de organiser so to speak but Joe's team can't find him so to speak. I assume it's "Ferdia" (old Irish name) but Joe and Irish go together like Joe and Matty Matticks, Joe and Geography etc.
2. I tink dare was somethin' about D'Alzheimers, but I've forgotten what it was about so to speak
3. Locksmith Levy - day'll be locked out if day don't pay (he did actually say that btw, and was lookin for other puns as he spoke) so to speak


Or most likely none of the above.
