Your main premise of the show is to get people to call in....and they consistently manage to have bad lines, how have they not somewhat fixed that?

Ive texted into NewsTalk a few times and been asked to go on. The producer talks to you for a few minutes partly to check your line. I don't understand whoy Liveline never does that.

You'd need a cherry picker for any windows above ground level.

Thank Joe for his service....that's what he wants caller!

She mentioned car park.

Careful caller. Joe could suddenly get a flashback and have a cold cold sweat at the mention of the C word.

Her views may be considered eccentric by some but why criticise for that?

I don't agree with her necessarily but let her at it if she wants.

"Eccentric" come on....

It's fine if you don't fall into one of the categories she goes after....

There is a reason why she has been locked off every single platform.

Anyway off topic so I will stop

She is totally unhinged.
Where do you want to start with her recent stuff?
- The troubles was a staged event
- Holocaust denial
That's not even scratching the surface when it comes to her rants about LGBT people, foreigners.
She has gone full off the deep end.

Maybe shes in the throes of a prolonged mental episode, who knows but that doesn't negate any of the good work she done in the relatively recent past where she revealed the currupt underbelly of the state when other "journalists" were afraid to go there and still are as a matter of fact, the dancers being indisguishable from the dance these days . I dont agree with 90% of her present day views btw but to me its no surprise shes gone mad having no doubt had a fleeting glance at the corrupt and discusting underbelly of this new Republic

That's somewhat unfair since you have very little knowledge of her situation. Housing an addict is an incredibly difficult situation so I wouldn't be choosing to judge anyone in a situation like that.

I somewhat agree with you. I'm not in her shoes(thankfully). However,if mine had the misfortune to fall into tdrug/alcohol addiction I would not be able to sleep in my bed at night knowing they were on the streets. Moreover I would not come on national radio saying that homeless charities should be looking after my flesh and blood whilst I had a solid roof over me.
In that context I feel I am well qualified to judge her.
