RTE Radio 1: The Ryan Tubridy Show

sligojoek · 05-08-2021 9:18am

I thought Tubridy was bad but this lad takes the biscuit.

Boys bad.

Girls good

Awful, any time I put it on he's talking about his family.

Brendan Bendar · 05-08-2021 10:16am

We are at the bottom of the barrel now Joe, as soon as I hear the name ‘Baz’ mentioned…….

Bang!!!

Pelvis Parsley · 05-08-2021 10:40am

Ollie was making him look too bad so they rolled in the booby prize.

Pity Callan can’t leave his political sniping for his ‘own time’ and production.

when he is on RTE time he needs to cut out the snide references or take a hike.

Should be fairly obvious……….

sligojoek · 06-08-2021 9:09am

Someone pull him off the stage.

Gen.Zhukov · 06-08-2021 9:22am

Does Baz have a favourite humming noise?

sligojoek · 06-08-2021 9:29am

Coming up. PBH celebrating the Spice Girls and female empowerment.

What has RTE become?

Baz, to Noel Hogan: you live in Limerick. How down to earth.

NIMAN · 08-08-2021 8:04pm

So Ryan's favourite sportsperson of all time, won Olympic gold.

Thats the 1st episode of the LLS already done. A Kellie Special!

archfi · 09-08-2021 9:10am

The Boy King is back! 👍️👎️

TBF, Tubridy has had Kellie Harrington on a few times over the past few years and has come across as really, genuinely liking her.

PieOhMy · 09-08-2021 9:42am

Book interview and complaining about social media. Good to see he's back with some fresh ideas after the holiday!

golondrinas1 · 09-08-2021 10:06am

This guy wants everyone to stop using social media and buy his book instead.

Yeah right.

Happened to see her interviewed a couple of times last week, she is such a lovely person, and really comes across well in interviews.

I can't watch the LLS, because Tubridy is so on edge, he would manage to turn what should be a relaxed and easy interview with her, into an ordeal for everyone.

PieOhMy · 09-08-2021 12:15pm

The thought of the unbridled joy she is experiencing must make Ryan feel physically sick. Luckily I believe Kellie Harrington works in a hospital so that connection and proximity to death will be a nice jumping off point for the interview once that annoying positive stuff is out of the way. Maybe add some personal tragedy to the mix and you've got yourself a classic Tubridy interview that will have the audience going to bed feeling drained and depressed - just the way he likes it.

Now, now. No need to be so cynical. Ryan has been planning the first episode of the new season since at least April.

He has constantly been telling us all how amazing it is going to be. And how it's going to knock all of our socks off.

John Boyne he was cancelled for "My Brother's Name is Jessica" because the title should have read "My Sister's Name was Jack" but then he'd be dead naming a fictional charachter!

NIMAN · 09-08-2021 7:18pm

Ryan is having all his thunder stolen in the Kellie front by his fellow RTE presenters.

By the time he gets back into work, and interviews Kellie, she'll be old news.

Bellbottoms · 09-08-2021 7:55pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117729174#Comment_117729174

Does John Boyne enjoy going out of his way to offend people.

When you are getting **** from the aushwitz museum. Instead of doubling down. Maybe sit down and think about what they are saying.

And now this.

sligojoek · 10-08-2021 9:14am

Books

Trump

History

Connemara

The famine.

His subjects are really limited

NIMAN · 10-08-2021 9:27am

Waffled for 27min today, minus the song of course.

A new record?

NIMAN · 10-08-2021 9:29am

Missed the start.

Surely he mentioned the Olympic gold?

10-08-2021 9:30am

^^ Ah now Sligo, his subjects are more confined than limited: Where else will be hear about the Donald? What other Audience wants to hear more about Trump? GIve Tubbs a break!

NIMAN · 10-08-2021 1:51pm

Ryan's back and very little activity in the thread.

Has everyone given up on the show?

Bellbottoms · 10-08-2021 3:46pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117732995#Comment_117732995

My schedule has changed. Meetings most mornings between 9 and 10.

So no more Ryan for me.

furiousox · 10-08-2021 6:45pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117732995#Comment_117732995

No, but everyone has given up on "new" boards.ie.

mistersifter · 10-08-2021 7:47pm

Tubridy is chuffed about the new boards I'd say. All the nasty bullies have fecked off.

sligojoek · 10-08-2021 8:18pm

Bad time for me these days. I don't think I've listened to any more than 5 or 10 minutes in the last few months regardless of who's presenting.

Heard a bit of himself today.

Books he's read and books he's going to read.

Films he's seen and going to see.

Trump. I'd forgotten all about him Ryan. You should too.

History and the famine.

Nothing new after who knows how many weeks to refresh and revamp.

Gary Scrod · 10-08-2021 8:20pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117734556#Comment_117734556

I wish he would feck off.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117734662#Comment_117734662

I hear ya. Tuned in for a few minutes and he was on about tea brack, pints in cosy pubs in Connemara and how he loves going to the cinema and having popcorn or some shít. The usual contrived, irritating, repetitive load of bollix. I just felt a sort of resignation and switched it off.

SpitfireIV · 11-08-2021 8:30am

I sent him a text yesterday to plug a voluntary museum that I'm part of, he have us a good mention so he's alright by me 😁

sligojoek · 11-08-2021 9:06am

Spidding

He must have been in America for his holidays

can you plug it to me? i like a museum

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117736134#Comment_117736134

Post it here. I might give it a visit

PieOhMy · 11-08-2021 10:00am

What was the topic of the call on Tuesday?

So far since the holiday we have had:

Bookshop / Author: 2

Death/illness: 1

NIMAN · 12-08-2021 9:29am

Another bookshop interview today.

NIMAN · 12-08-2021 9:37am

"Do they love being surrounded by beautiful books ".

12-08-2021 9:53am

Notably, as always, he does little to promote the countrywide fully-integrated libraries service under the auspices of Libraries Ireland, whereby you can order •any• item from the countrywide network and beyond to your nearest convenient branch to pick up, and return same to •any• branch, together with the years of expertise and knowledge of the staff who can field queries on almost any subject under the universe.

it's solely about local businesses, which is fine, but, if he believes in free universal access to literature and knowledge, he should do an equal job of promoting the libraries service. I wasn't impressed with that Louisburgh bookseller's take on the local library, and seemingly her dearth of knowledge of the breadth of service it provides.

NIMAN · 12-08-2021 9:59am

For a man who seems to talk non-stop about books, he does seem to rarely mention libraries.

I suppose they don't hand out freebies or give photo ops for radio presenters.

PieOhMy · 12-08-2021 11:09am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117736523#Comment_117736523

Just checked it was about 5km local history documentary and also an author.

So far since the 2nd holiday we've had:

Bookshop / Author: 3

sligojoek · 13-08-2021 9:07am

The toy show is going to he special this year.

archfi · 13-08-2021 9:08am

A promise of a bumper first LLS back...

Another daily update about the Toy Show, that's one a day since the last one was on - big discussion was had with his team about what character he should play...

NIMAN · 13-08-2021 10:00am

He cares more than the rest of us, and for some reason he thinks the nation needs a Toy Show update from January onwards.

No doubt once the kids are back at school, NK Management and the Mirror will have daily updates on the amount of work he is doing to prep for the Toy Show.

At the end of the day, its all about Ryan. Sorry, the Toy Man.

Pelvis Parsley · 13-08-2021 10:22am

He's a vacuous little jackanapes, and might as well be phoning it in.

Say what you like about Gee Ryan, but at least he could mix it up a bit.

More freebies, presumably gets paid to visit museums and gets goodies and free lunch etc. Amazing the greed of some people.

https://carlow-nationalist.ie/2021/07/17/ryan-tubridy-speaks-glowingly-of-trip-to-athy-and-ballitore/

"My friends in the Shackleton Museum got in touch and said, well if you’re you’ve got to come here. So, I said fair enough.”

I’m gonna go home and watch the Shackleton movie, gonna read some of the books they gave me, so it’s great, I’ve got a whole new avenue of history to explore.”

His third stop of the day was just up the road outside the village post office run by Lily O’Mara – Lily and friends hosted a lovely tea party for the esteemed visitor, complete with a song from community garda Seán O’Mahony!

Speaking on his radio show the day after his visit to Kildare, Mr Tubridy spoke glowingly of his experience and remarked that it was “a very beautiful way to spend an afternoon and a morning, and thank you very much indeed for the welcome. And can I recommend – just sincerely and heartily – that, if you want to see Seán the singing guard, if you want to meet Lily in the post office, or if you want to get some books from Pauline, and equally then head up the road to Athy and go to the Shackleton Museum, you will not be bored … there’s so much in it.”

PieOhMy · 13-08-2021 11:38am

This is the type of thing he made out he was on the verge of a breakdown from before the first holiday. Is the first late late show still going to be for first line workers like was promised before? That will be nice for them at least to to get a share of a taste in the free stuff the rte staff get to enjoy.

So far since the 2nd holiday we've had:

He's said before his strategy would be to break the guys legs.

PieOhMy · 16-08-2021 8:39pm

So far since the 2nd holiday (8th Aug) we've had:

Bookshop / Author: 3

Death & illness/domestic abuse: 2

A.N Other: 4

Toy Show mentions: 1

Shockingly they actually put a bit of effort into the radio app and handily break up the segments of the days show, otherwise I wouldn't be able to maintain this. I doubt I have the stamina needed to keep it going long but after the success of the freebies list I'll give it a shot. Only objective here is to see:

1. What the % strike rate of toyshow mentions to shows will be; and

2. The % of misery topics at a certain date.

If there's a mention of the toy Show would appreciated if it's flagged here as I can't cope with it most days recently it's just so poor.
