    Has Liveline, a national caller driven Irish radio show had a debate about the very real crowded central Dublin protest yesterday?
    From the possibility of spreading the virus to the implications for the public's readiness to abide by the pandemic regulations after seeing this and many other big breaches to the reasoning behind the police's lack of enforcing regulations except in very easy, limited circumstances.
    the shcoking murder of Floyd and the subject of racism within Ireland could have been explored as well.

    I mean, there's so much potential to talk with Irish people of all opinions about an event with so many strands with an Irish perspective...

    ...but a US centric show with a clearly inebriated & dumb southern US Trump fan, a supercillious deaf and blind and dumb northern US anti-Trumper and an Irish comedian is what a presenter on 400k+ a year and the band of researchers around him thought was a good call on our national flaghsip radio station.

    You were doing so well,until you said comedian..:pac::D

    Mind boggling they will try another march

    You’re racist in the eyes of some by even asking that question.

    Apparently there’s one in Galway too. I wonder will it be led by de police brutality hold me back screaming gobshoyte who was on the prom?

    I listen to many radio stations from all around the wurdld. Never have I even once been tempted to call,mail,text or tweet any one of them. Joseph Duffy is so lucky to have such a wide audience who feel the need to contact his gravy train. ;)

    I would estimate that 90% of his regular audience have never been on the internet, haven’t a clue what a podcast is, or have ever listened to anything other than RTÉ radio and the death notices on whatever local radio station they also listen to so to speak as they say.

    Couldn't believe they kept the pro Trump caller on the line for the whole show. She was doing nothing more than ranting on with blatant lies whilst under the influence of something strong. I'm all for balanced debate but she was contributing nothing factually to the debate.

    I assume she was left on for trolling purposes only.

    And Duffy utterly incapable of moderating.

    He really has no knowledge, articulation or education for the type shows..an absolute mumbler

    Best suited to tampax controversy...

    Black Americans are 2.5 time more likely to be killed by the police than white.
    That is extremely high considering black people make up about 13% of US population

    blacks are disproportionately involved in crime , its not high when you bear that in mind

    RTE always find the biggest quack possible to represent the conservative view point

    indeed , the iona institute are portrayed by RTE as being reflective of mainstream conservative opinion in ireland , ive no objection to david quinn being on radio and i find his collumns good reading but hes a religous conservative , not a big tent one , hes niche presented as general and its deliberate on the part of the media here

    No idea but would be interested to know. Duffy said she was calling in from Dallas which has a 6 hour time difference if my calculations are correct. That would mean she was calling in at 07:30 AM local time. She sounded pretty tuned up for that time of the morning.

    What struck me was that he seemed exasperated by her contributions and was even second guessing her answers yet still decided to keep her on the line. When someone is blatantly lying and peddling untruths they should be cut off immediately.

    Was it not the middle of the night? :pac:

    Note: I know you’re fairly new here, for context if Mr. Duffy calls anyone from basically outside of Europe in his mind it’s always “the middle of the night”. Even New York, a mere 5 hours behind us is apparently in the middle of the night when it’s 2:30pm here so to speak as they say.

    I’m pleasantly surprised, fair play to him if it was sincere.

    Someone wrote in to say he didnt sound sorry enough! But he came on air and said it, I think thats enough to expect from a young lad. People were able to track down his school which was also contacted by people complaining so maybe they had a part to play

    She was certainly on a middle of the night buzz. :)

    Constantly sniffing and sparking up at one point of the interview.

    Suited them to have a bit of a pissed up looney on to represent the Trump side, for Joe to ridicule. He could not even do that right. Pity they could not have someone coherent on

    Not being smart but when has there been anyone coherently speaking on behalf of Trump? He has surrounded himself with sycophants who don't have a moral bone in their bodies.

    That unhinged caller was nothing more than a testament to how broken the system is in America.

    That same fcuking quote about him losing his job tomorrow. Sounds like a rehash of the Sindo article from weeks ago that Butters pulled apart.

    TOMORROW IS TWO WEEKS TOO LATE!

    Cal Thomas (regular on The Last Word) does to be fair; not saying I agree with him by the way but at least he’s articulate!

    Turns out Miss Dallas was right:

    Thats why they left her on, because she was pretty off it ...

    Adding audio will take it to de next level so to speak as they say and technologically to a place that certain telephonists won’t be able to operate it and dat.
