RTE Radio 1: The Ryan Tubridy Show

It was a gag earlier, now it's an extremely cruel joke.🙄

Welsh Megaman · 28-03-2022 9:20am

He got in ONE little fight and his Mom got scared…

The line up for Friday's LLS has been revealed:

ButtersSuki · 28-03-2022 9:21am

"difficult language".

You mean using the exact words in a literary classic? Mother of God.

StevenToast · 28-03-2022 9:21am

So Chris Rock wasnt kind with his joke and Will Smith wasnt kind with his slap.....

Im confused Bryan....what would the king of kindness do???

ButtersSuki · 28-03-2022 9:22am

Tubs shillin' for a trip to see To Kill A Mockingbird in London.

ButtersSuki · 28-03-2022 9:22am

Tubs reading out the same text messages again................as I said, zero prep.

Welsh Megaman · 28-03-2022 9:26am

My god, that new Arctic Monkeys song is absolutely terrible!

I’ve never been a big fan, but that sounded like some Poundland Michael Buble effort.

Norm mcdonald suggested we change Huckleberry Finn to a black character and then everything is ok and no changes are required :)

Surely a black disabled non-binary lesbian with alopecia who identifies as Huck Finn?

I missed the show? What literary classic? Hmm I am guessing not something from one of Ryan's usually roster Potboilers or Irish celeb ghost written chick lit.

To Kill A Mockingbird (and it’s use of the N word). Woke Tubs of course couldn’t even bring himself to say “the N word” lest he offend someone, instead saying “difficult language”.

I bet he’s never even read it.

Bellbottoms · 28-03-2022 12:53pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118846025#Comment_118846025

I doubt he has as well.

But Aaron "I can't believe its not David Mamet" Sorkin has adapted it for stage. You can bet he will be all over that.

"It's just like they took they took the West Wing and set in the deep south. Their is Toby and Josh and Bartlet. Go and see it. If you like your politics and your history and your books and the west wing I guarantee you will love it. I've read all of Harper Lee's books. There are so many. But this was always the best one. Yes countless nights I have spent reading one of her court room dramas in my cousin's hotel in Cliffdon".

ButtersSuki · 29-03-2022 9:04am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118846502#Comment_118846502

I'd be willing to bet that he thinks Harper Lee is a man.

Yes, Tubs fixation with Sorkin is a little weird, bordering on obsessive. Sorkin has some gems in his portfolio, but also some stinkers and flops - I've just looked at his IMDB and I've actually seen everything he's been involved with screen and cinema-wise.

He's had a lot of drug problems and has a fondness for both cocaine and crack cocaine. Maybe that's why Tubs likes him so much, you know like Saint Gerry of RTE...................

ButtersSuki · 29-03-2022 9:06am

New headphones AND a new chair AND a new carpet for his Majesty!

You shouldn't be thanking "the team" Bryan, you should be thanking me and the other Licence Fee payers!

ButtersSuki · 29-03-2022 9:09am

Tubs talking about the freebies the Ukrainian refugees are getting. Am I detecting a hint of jealousy?

ButtersSuki · 29-03-2022 9:10am

Did you give anything to Ruslan Bryan apart from gracing him with your presence?

ButtersSuki · 29-03-2022 9:14am

Deadly serious

ButtersSuki · 29-03-2022 9:15am

Humblebragging by Bryan about helping a peasant with a speech.

He almost bought an arran jumper but was called away..... wtf. Is he trolling?

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118850140#Comment_118850140

Oh I 100% agree with that. In his mind it's the Irish equivalent of a Royal Visit. I bet he's expecting a plaque to be erected beside the front door of any establishment he visits along with a large framed photograph of him inside.

Like yesterday after lecturing us that films should only be watched in the cinema on a big screen he started to watch the recent Jessica Chastain film at home but was also called away. Called away for what? Another DHL delivery of freebies that he had to sign for?

PieOhMy · 29-03-2022 9:24am

Roman O Bramovich?

That arran jumper story was an "iceland" style sly request for a free jumper. Then he moved on to the quintessential definition of happiness being the feeling you get when you give something to someone without expecting anything in return....

Not just any old donations. The clothes and goods have to be new. None of yer ol' secondhand crap.

The saying 'beggars can't be choosers' is now made redundant.

Is it just me or is the whole country bending over backwards for the latest refugees. Every Tom Dick and Harry is 'fundraising' all trying to outdo each other with ideas for raising money.

Ten thousand euro here, five thousand euro there. One thousand three hundred and ten euro and 60 cent at hundreds of coffee mornings up and down the country. Artic loads filled to the gills driving overland to the Ukraine border. Every school in the country raising money for Ukraine.

I think it's time I confessed to something my friend I did years ago. We used to rob pennies from the Trocaire box on the top of the telly during Lent to buy sweets and repayed it before we brought the boxes into school at the end of Lent. That's a great burden lifted off my shoulders.

I got out the wrong side of the bed this morning.

I was raised to believe that giving you those less fortunate than you is very important, but also that is was important not to boast about it or seek thanks or praise for doing so.

Nowadays it seems that people do it FOR the praise and the social status awarded to one for doing something - the cause is completely irrelevant. It’s like competitive oneupmanship (or “oneupwomanship” for the woke folk) to see who can get the most likes on Instagram etc. Makes me sick tbh.

It's who we are, like it or not.

A kind of soft power that is part of our culture from the pennies in the collection boxes you mentioned to Facebook and Instagram today.

We are not supplying troops or military hardware but this kind of voluntary aid is needed too.

It's not compulsory to help out or take part.

As Tubridy says “they looK like us” and then (I think) Brenda Power subsequently said on BOC “Ryan is right… they ARE us”.

This extends to Instagram, FB & Twitter candles in the aftermath of somebody else’s tragedy… in a way that tries to make one seem ever so empathetic.

Totally agree with this,

Every day is like a school day with tubs 🤔

Don't give second hand stuff to refugees 👍 buy them new stuff, no second hand shite.

Ten minutes later have someone on telling us to buy second hand that the clothes are as good as new stuff , that you save money,/ environment

Lesson learned today second hand stuff is good enough for yourself but not for other people, and definitely not a second hand Arran jumper that tubs is looking for.......... He wants a new one
