    Don’t tell me Samantha is in control for the full show here.

    Needs to take a drink a bit more often, very dry mouthed on my device.

    I won’t mention the ‘Nooze’ crap.

    If she could cut out both of those things she would be quite good.

    Slow down a bit, calm down, no need to rock on at 100k an hour.

    She’s doing very well otherwise,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Oohhhh my ears, there it goes…..’Nooze’. Man… why oh why.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Ha hah Great response from Thomas Byrne when being introduced by Samantha

    Worth a listen for the underwhelming response.

    Samantha needs to pronounce ‘o’ as o not ‘u’


    Ie recuvvered…. It’s recovered Sam


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    What’s this gimp Cooke doing in this slot?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,168 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    RTE shouldn't be talking about Pri.. Harry and his memoirs. Who gives a ****? This is Ireland. The programme is supposed to be about important and relevant news.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    There'd be ructions in the Pale if they didn't pay attention to the Windsors sligeach...ructions!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Have you backup and a link to authenticate that statement, a chara?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    It's a statement based on experience Brendi. Nowt else, there's nobody bothered collecting data on remaining royalists in the Pale. 😉



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Aah ok Francie, only posts calling out the Shinners need to be backed up and linked.

    Is that how it works?

    This new site has me flummoxed, Francie, very hard to get used to the new rules.


    Apologies.

    Your opinion never needed back-up or links Brendi. Nor for 'calling out' anybody or party. No new rules I'm aware of a chara.

    No rule states you need be taking a wisecrack so seriously either. Are you from the 'Pale'? You know it no longer exists....yeh?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Apologies Francie, the heat must be getting to me, I’m a bit staggery I’ll have to admit.

    Very hot up in Monaghan I hear, must be a bit of a ‘glaze’ on the plums under the corduroys.

    We’ll leave it at that so, have to study this new site for a week or two.

    Throw me a bit of slack dude…….!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    Don't be afraid of change Brendi, it happens regardless.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Good call Francie, bit afraid of change, I’ll have to admit.

    Can’t get away from thinking that it may not always be for the better.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    That's what people in the Pale used to think Brendi, there was ructions when a few lads and lassies set about to change things, but shure look at it now!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Yeh, You have a good point there Mr B,lads with bombing convictions an all, lads with boats bringing in guns all being paid by the taxpayer.Lads with records as long as your arm getting chauffeured out of jail by lads on huge state wedges.Lads being deified by front seat passengers and high rollers in the Free State for terrorist activity.


    Francie, how am I such a fool for not thinking that that was an improvement.

    You are teaching me a lesson Francie, and I am ashamed of my ignorance.

    The fan boys and girls of FG FF and SF will be along to chide you for running down the founders of their parties Brendi.

    Got rid of the Pale for you and look at the thanks they get. Tut tut.

    Waiting on John Creedon here in the garden, I'll let you off this time.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Getting very taken with these ‘Pale’ you talk about Francie.

    You seem quite taken by imaginary ‘borders’ Mr B.

    Bit of a ‘ border’ fetish a cynical poster might surmise eh?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    You were the one who thought it still existed and that I might have data taken within it Brendi. 😀😀

    Methinks it might exist in one's mind maybe...might I be right? 😉



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,017 ✭✭✭Gen.Zhukov


    ^ I thought you two were getting a room?

    The site is bad enough as it is without getting notifications on this pissing contest



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,266 ✭✭✭mattser


    Fairly pathetic indeed. Extremely childish.

    Can't say I disagree, tbh.

    Their "conversations" don't have much (anything) to do with the programme.

    And Brendan's other contributions, before I found how to put him on ignore again, seem to mostly consist of personal attacks on Sarah McInerney.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    Brendi decided he didn't like a joke/quip I made to another poster and indulged his love to bring his politics to a radio thread. The success/failure of presenters he bases on their ability to 'tear' opposition interviewees a 'new one'. Ho hum to that.

    My apologies to all for accommodating him.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    Haven't heard all the show...is Sarah on her own? Well able for it tbf.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    I love the attitude how criticizing a presenter can be juxtapositioned into ‘attacking’ the presenter !!!


    Wouldn’t be happy with that kind of attitude at all.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Not that geezer Cooke again…. The Brian Lally soundalike

    Another ‘Nooze’ idiot.


    The licence payer deserves better than another ‘Nooze’ stult.

    Jaysus!

    Cooke and ‘Danny’ almost combusting that Zapone got a job with plenty of foreign travel and expenses!

    Both of the fcukers would jump like cane toads for a job like that. 🤣


    Looks like RTE have McConnell on ‘speedial’ . heh heh he’s Danny to them all.


    Any more scandal Danny ….. did the lead cleaner with the Dept of Edu. ring you with anything 😎



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Sarah trying to ‘Flash Bang’ Dooley……

    This Zappone stuff is another absolute bollox up by ‘somebody’.

    solution.

    Michael Martin…. Stand up and bury this N O W



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Looks like Cooke has ridden roughshod over OHeadhra.

    Much more incisive, not shouting into the mic, much more fast moving, none of this “Your very welcome to the program” crap, less pedantic.

    Only problem with Cooke is this ‘Nooze’ pronunciation, yet another in the RTE band of ‘Nooze’ idiots.

    Getting bigger by the day.

    O’hEadhra might regret his five week holiday.



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,800 ✭✭✭ShamNNspace


    What a rotten thing to do, to go out and enjoy the hospitality of a pub or restaurant over the weekend and then inform on them as to how they are abiding to the sometimes ridiculous rules, terrible by-product of the covid this nasty tale-telling and curtain-twitching by a section of the citizenry, much of it encouraged by the government or whoever rules over us these days



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    So you are quite happy to let folk be ridden on by premises serving food and drink contrary to health regulations.

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,800 ✭✭✭ShamNNspace


    No one is being ridden as you quaintly put it, if people have a problem with a premises say it there and then to the manager like a proper man or woman, sly phonecalls and texts are the lowest of the low... If one has a problem say it in the now and take your custom elsewhere or stay at home if it suits you, thats all there is to it simple as that



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    And queer the pitch for those who comply with the legal conditions?

    Im afraid, my friend, that you and those with whom you run with have got it badly wrong.

    You are only aiding and abetting law breaking.

    Do you seriously think anyone involved in a premises like that would give a flying f**k.

    You are very naive ,buddy.



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,800 ✭✭✭ShamNNspace


    Arry give over and get down off your high horse, I don't run with any oul crew, nor I can assure you am I naive I've far more life experience than yourself,but as things stand I'll leave the informing to others sure the country's full of them, allways was.. Go way an have a pint for yourself good man



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Attitudes like that is why the country is in the State it’s in.

    Pat got a chance to get a break out, obey the rules, behave responsibly last Christmas.

    Did he do it…….did he f**k

    Result..another 5. Months lock down.

    Good lad…carry on.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    Brilliant to hear a good interviewer cut through waffle the way Sarah did there with Nessa Houricane.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,441 ✭✭✭jippo nolan




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    McInerney going on about lack of people being put forward for the programme over the Zappo saga.

    Of course ignoring the fact that nobody from RTE came forward when the Retirementgate saga opened up.


    Hypocracy at its most blatant.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Jaysus…O'hEadhra is booming into the mic.today.

    Reduce the volume for forks sake…….ploughing through the intro with iron boots on.

    Speak normally dude.

    A mystery that someone of such limited intellect as John Bolton could have reached such heights in American politics, then again I suppose the rest of them aren't much better



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    He got short shrift from Cormac at the end...tantamount to hanging up on him. 😁



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    I don't have much confidence in this Lord Mayor cleaning up the city after listening to this



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Absolutely correct and you’d be perfectly justified there .

    Dublin City Centre is a cesspit- beggars, scobies, chancers, junkies, freeloaders, and decent people.

    Now of course you will get people who will ask

    Have you evidence of this.

    Have you figures for this

    How can u back this up

    Whats the underlying reason for this, we need to do a project on this and report back in a year.!!

    All you have to do is watch what’s going on, no point in ‘taking details’ and filing them away,doing nothing.

    Whats needed is ACTION, firm swift action.

    First thing I would do is make this begging illegal….. it’s a cancer and a blight on Dublin City Central.

    The time for statistic taking and reports is over, get out of your cosy routines and clean the place up.

    The boardwalk isn’t that big, clear the scobies junkies and panhandlers and dealers off it permanently.

    That would at least be a start.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,221 ✭✭✭Glaceon


    A very distorted breakdown tape running at the moment!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,168 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    "After the fire".

    There's been gremlins in the system for nearly 10 minutes. Maybe someone set the studio on fire.

    Pine martins got in and chewed on the wiring loom apparently.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    JAysus…OhEadhra is hard going ….voice like a buzz saw….had to turn the lad off.

    Does he have to speak like the public announcer in the RDS at Leinster games.


    Wear you out.

    Gave him the chop at 1711, couldn’t take any more.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,168 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    "Women have never been on top." 🤣

    That's not true.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,750 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    OhEadhra dying on his feet in this interview.

    Cut is short dude, out of your depth.

    Total disaster from OnEadhra, I’m afraid his true talent is being exposed.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70,127 ✭✭✭✭FrancieBrady


    Would be nice if you told us who the interview was with.
