McSavage had Duffy 100% sussed.

Duffy made it his business to get McSavage off the air and he got his way.

He a sick, disturbed character.

Is dere no wimmin wid stories to tell.

Getting seriously sick of this story now. At least a bit of balance as there were plenty of psycho, abusive lay teachers over the years as well

I was educated by Marists but the sickest bastard in that school faculty was not a priest

Joe has definitely skin in the game in this subject,

No normal person could be as invested in a subject without it having something to do with them

If he didn't have anything done to him then he's a total weirdo

Busi_Girl08

The irony is lost on Joe talking about how victims' voices are lost as he rudely talks over a victim trying to get a word in.

Busi_Girl08

Is that Joe muttering "god almighty" over the replay?

He seems to have a major problem with fee-paying schools , (Note the sneery way he referred to the "Blackrock brand" and the "Rockwell brand"), despite him sending his own young lad to Belvedere like the peasant social climber that he is

Joe's level of english is on a level of trump's

Ffs joe and your patronizing guff

Young man at 55 🤔

Imagine his patronizing spoofing talking to Mrs joe, when little joe makes an appearance 🤮

I have a heard a story about Joe making sure his boys got into the school. But I suspect there is more (a later part) to the story.

The odd wallop was still being dished out in the late 90's and early 00's. I feel that the next campaign will be for physical and emotional abuse in schools to be investigated and redressed.

We will need to keep the MNCs around for a good while longer to pay for the sins of the brutes.

Sweet Jesus, this is beyond depressing!!

God is RTE trying to send us all to an early grave!

The insincerity in Joe's voice.

Atlantic Dawn

Is Joe using a highlighter marker or having a sly tugeen?

johnbarrett35

God, this is just heartbreaking, really this isn't right for an afternoon programme.

sligeach

This man(Paul) shouldn't be on the air discussing such traumatic events, especially as he's said he's never really talked about it before, and he's clearly so upset. Plus, he's said now that he's never had any counseling.

Busi_Girl08

Just a thought, but are any of these callers ringing in being given contact details of support lines like the Samaritans or any therapists in this area, or RTE just churning them in and out?

Tow

Which boarding school is this?

A Rock Boarder?

Atlantic Dawn

This level of chat is dangerous on the public airways, both for the callers mental health and listeners who may have been subject to similar abuse.

This is NOT an appropriate platform for this poor man to expose his trauma

Of course Joe believes the most important thing he needs right now is to have a cup of tea with someone. 🙄

johnbarrett35

There must have been warning given to Joe by the powers that be!

disgraceful radio

Atlantic Dawn

I remember a friends father would go in to the local newsagents and ask for "10 of the best" when asking for his 10 pack of smokes.

I had to turn it off earlier so my guess is it's gone even darker.

My guess is RTEs duty of care only extends to sending them to their helplines website.

You say these stories are inappropriate on air and you'll only be accused of trying to silence them

archfi

I'm not listening but reading the comments about what is going on.

Joe Duffy doesn't give a flying fck about these callers as long as he gets the usual semi-plaudits in the Sunday papers. And he will.

Yes they put a 'if you have been affected by' warning out on nearly every tv show with any remotely challenging topic and yet they give this kind of topic free reign on the radio not knowing whatsoever the state of mind of the callers.

Tow

I just google the name of teacher who threw me across the classroom and came across a YouTube interview with him. :-(

Atlantic Dawn

Someone on Twitter is looking for a month worth of this topic on Liveline 🤔

14:59, ad break, "stay with us John".

Denny61

Stay with us..so the abused can still take in the ads lol

sligeach

I think that's confirmation from Joe that he intends to continue with this misery next week.

CH3OH

He seemed to suggest that he wiil be back to this on Monday

He is a sicko the way he switches from his fake caring compassionate tones and in a split second goes all upbeat that Ray Darcy is next

The mice must still be running asunder so to speak in RTÉ, Joe has his leather bag containing the launch codes for the Jag up on the desk for safe keeping.

Ahh here..... You'd see much worse up in Monto in the rare auld times (the only times Joe is interested in)

If you were to spend this morning at the local graveyard seeing if more people died on an even or uneven date you would have been far more entertained 😁.

CAB seizes house and farmland from Limerick gang member

https://www.rte.ie/news/2024/0906/1468805-cab-seizures/

Just one example of the 🐂 💩.

"She said she moved to Australia in 2015 and worked as a cleaner, childminder and escort while her husband did power-washing, tarmacking and gravel work, and that they earned €150,000."

On the Six One news, the report said that they "earned" it in 9 months.

Today’s show sounds like the worst of the week based on the comments I read here. It sounds like some of today’s callers should have been put in touch with organisations to help then rather than being put on air. I just don’t see the point of re treading through all these horrific details day on day on day. Honestly if I was a radio presenter I’d be screaming at my producer at this point to move on and even do a show on support organisations for people. There’s something kind of sick about going back to this week day after day and digging for more and more details.

I’m guessing that producer(s), researchers have no say in what goes on air, I’ve said it before, it’s The Joe Duffy show, I listened today and thought there was a real air/vibe of that c unt Jeremy Kyle about the show

Jeff2

There was no researcher today or Wednesday as he was going the whole show on a pet subject.

Yesterday there was a new researcher and only mentioned because Joe did a few minutes on another topic.

It's the Joe show for sure but not in his name as then he could be responsible personally.

Watching the film The Last Right on RTE2 tonight, and guess what RTE Radio 1 phone-in show and host has just made a cameo?

And guess what the theme of the phone-in was. ☠️ ⚰️
