RTE Radio 1: The Ryan Tubridy Show

You are one listener who gets distracted, you are not a spokesperson for the whole country. Over 90% of the available audience (15 to 64 as per JNLR) are not listening to Tubridy. I don't think RTE would miss you if you joined them.

Of course I am not. I never said I was. But that slot has ALWAYS benifited from the lead in from Morning Ireland.

Aside from that what's your point. My crisisms might be valid. But who cares, if I stop listening it dosent matter.

You never engage with the content or try and counter peoples crisisms. You just sort of pop up and point at posters and scream "Well if you don't like, don't listen".

Most days I don't listen. Somedays I do, and when I am shocked or disappointed or outraged that I am paying for this sh1te I come here to vent.

A better question might be why are you still here. You don't comment on the show or really engage with anyone. So why don't you just stop reading and posting here if you don't like it. You are not paying for anyones salay here.

Or you could you know engage with people. I don't think Ryan has a great interview style. He has someone on. They talk a bit, I don't know who they are or why they are really on. Except that well Ryan is a ghoul so obviously they have cancer or are dying and he wants them to cry on air.

If you don't think that is a fair assesment that's fair. Why don't you make a case for it.

I think it's just exploitation.

Case in point, he had some on talking about their father dying of breast cancer. I was not aware men got breast cancer. Where you?

Someone might generously make the arguement that Ryan was trying to raise awareness of male breast cancer. I don't know the symptoms of male breast cancer. Do you? Ryan never asked about them or where one would find resources online to learn about it. So what was the point of the interviews if not just a ghoulish exploration of someone's greif.

Silly voice.

And that's 2 days in a row he has mentioned Only Connect. Trying to show us he is intellectually above us, as its the most difficult quiz show by a mile.

Beatles mention.

Silly Boris impersonation.

Trudy Glenn 😂

One of the oldest "jokes" in the book.

"Pulled over for exceeding the speed limit the police officer came over to speak to me. I told the officer that I hadn't realized I was speeding but that the road was clear and visibility was good.

"Well sir, how would you have reacted if Mister Fog had suddenly appeared?" he enquired.

Annoyed at his patronizing manner, I facetiously replied, "I suppose I would've applied Mr. Brake and summoned up Mr. and Mrs. Headlight!"

Smiling, the officer carefully repeated what he had said, "How would you have reacted if mist.... or... fog had suddenly appeared?"

"What do you do all day?", asks Lucy.

Not the most comfortable of moments for the DLB there.

🤮

He's afraid to do Livin with Lucy. In fairness, imagine the creepy shít she'd find in the DLB's gaff.

"Why are there Muppet dolls dressed in BDSM gear in your room, Ryan? And are you getting Johnson & Johnson freebies or what's the craic with these little piles of talcum powder all over the gaff?"

On another popular discussion forum, they have a regular "Cnut of the Year" poll. How Tubridy doesn't win it hands down every year is a mystery to me - he's one odious bastard. No doubt he'll have to take the day off when Charlie Bird's dog, Tiger, eventually checks out

Not an endorsement - just for information purposes 😉

There is one for this year too, I just cannot find the link right now
