Was Bryan in Joe’s company during their absence. Somebody on the Liveline thread suggested there might be something going on 😁

Elvis is out on DVD/Blu Ray/4K Blu Ray this week so he’ll be getting a freebie or 3 no doubt so that he can talk about it again and continue to talk about it until Luhrman releases the extended version (prob. next year).

Kildare1976 · 27-09-2022 1:11pm

Speaking of freebies....

And home by noon of a Tuesday to enjoy them.

...and home by noon.

Great work if you can get it.

Some people in this country spend more time commuting each day than our Ryan does working.

I wonder how they got wind of it?

🙄

"Multi-millionaire tax avoider continues to scrounge for freebies" is a headline I'd like to see in one of the rags he so frequently gets coverage in.

leath_dub · 27-09-2022 2:16pm

This is outrageous really. Shameless scrounging followed by free advertising. How much are RTE losing in actual advertising revenue because this millionaire scrounger provides a free platform once he's provided with free stuff. Even Gerry Ryan wasn't this shameless - and he was pretty shameless!

In a properly accountable broadcaster this would prompt a thorough investigation. In RTE - what do you think???

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119670847#Comment_119670847

That's embarrassing, how can someone continually gloat about getting free stuff in the current environment.

NIMAN · 27-09-2022 3:14pm

And biscuits too! Sweet Jesus, just go out and buy your own you miserable git.

Kildare1976 · 27-09-2022 3:47pm

Just picture the scene..

A multi millionaire, bent over unpacking a box of biscuits at home and then taking the time to stack it like a "jenga pyramid" on his own, and then actually filming it, selecting some stupid musical pun about a pyramia and posting it to social media...

Just think about that.. The man is not right.

Kildare1976 · 27-09-2022 3:50pm

And he told us this morning he has a busy week.... How does he handle the pressure

mistersifter · 27-09-2022 6:29pm

Can someone send him a message on Instagram and ask if he is going to at least donate the freebies to a SVDP or something. He blocked me last time I asked this question.

Disgusting individual.

I would but would end up like you and excluded from keeping a watchful eye. They say keep your friends close but your enemies closer.

I've mentioned this before but I think the timing of "The Toyshow The Musical" is in very poor taste this year and the pressure that will put on families - and most likely those who can least afford it - coming up to Christmas.

I posted this last month, but it's even more relevant now the day after the budget:

As for "The Toy Show, The Musical", I really feel this is very exploitative and both unnecessary and irresponsible by RTE. Families are under enough pressure financially at this time of year without the added pressure and peer pressure of wanting to attend this. The cost of living increases are visible daily and we are facing into a dark winter and imminent recession. Sadly I feel that it is those who can least afford it who will feel the need to attend this vanity project. The cost for say a family of 4 when you include travel, food and accommodation if required would be ghastly, and at a very expensive time of the year. I really feel this is in extremely poor taste.

Tickets start at €25 per person, and variously go to €35, €45, and €50 per person with ALL tickets having an additional €2.50 per tickets fee. So a family of 4 will cost a minimum of €110 and up to €210.

I'd be very interested to know if Tubs/NK have a financial interest in this production btw- anyone with any knowledge of this?

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:06am

Guffawing and giggle-fit during the intro.

Good morning ha ha ha ha ha ha, it's Wednesday ha ha ha ha ha the ha ha ha ha the 28th of September ha ha ha ha and we're budget free ha ha ha ha ha .

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:06am

Tubs went to Centre Parcs yesterday - for free of course - and of course this is basically just going to be one big ad for it.

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:07am

Centre Parcs is just amazing...and bonkers.

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:08am

Tubs just told the staff to book a trip to Galway for him next week. "Make it so"

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:10am

Will you discuss Cromwell using the church as a stables for his horses when he was in Galway Tubs? No, of course you won't. Protect the monarchy like a good little serf.

QueensGael · 28-09-2022 9:10am

I'd sooner listen to budget coverage than this whistle, I'm out already. Bon courage folks!

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:11am

This tin whistle version of Careless Whisper is up there with Joe Duffy's tribute to the Olympic Rowers in 2016 (when he played Row Row Row Your Boat)

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:11am

"American Horror Show Story" - I'm familiar with American Horror Story, but not American Horror Show Story Bryan, is this a new show?

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:13am

2 good guys this morning. Is good guy the new good egg?

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:14am

Fake accent, this time Tolstoy.....who apparently was English judging by Tubs' impression. Intriguing.

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:16am

Tubs criticizing people for pretending to read books they haven't read. Honestly, buy him a mirror.

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:17am

"A lot of people do very nefarious things around here" says Tubs. Is he referring to the dark web, or RTE?

28-09-2022 9:17am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119674767#Comment_119674767

The irony of it.

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:18am

Dark Web = Trump

Wow.

28-09-2022 9:18am

Bet Ryan lurks around the dark web a lot

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:18am

"maybe even drugs" says Ryan so innocently.

No, he said he's never been on it. I believe him. The Toyman never lies!

If he gets a delivery from Cadburys it would be a Careless Wispa...............

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:23am

Yes Bryan but having lived in France the difference is the French eat different varieties of cheese whereas most Irish people eat Easi Singles type stuff.

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:24am

I'm honestly shocked Tubs managing to mention Tom Hanks without mentioning the Elvis movie.

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:26am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119674807#Comment_119674807

Jesus he just made a joke with Careless Wispa as the punchline.

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:28am

"Shakira - Columbia's finest export" says Tubs without laughing.

avfc1874 · 28-09-2022 9:30am

Only listened to the first 5, minutes, so new sponsor centa parcs, invites him down hoping that he'll talk the place up , and with his vast vocabulary 🤔 . All he says is it's bonkers,

He's weirder than weird

ButtersSuki · 28-09-2022 9:30am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119674782#Comment_119674782

Another delicious irony from the mouth of The Toyman.

Can't manage it after all the fig rolls he begged

28-09-2022 9:40am

I bet he had an Executive Lodge all to himself…. own sauna, barbecue patio, jacuzzi, spa baths, games room, bedrooms with balconies

i wouldn’t know what this luxury is like 😉

“That’s the ethic you’re dealing with there”

He's just joshing, not bullying. The Toyman never bullies - it's just a misunderstanding.

Imagine yourself as a child who has just got a new Toy as a present and leaves their home to go out and play on the street. Coincidentally kid Ryan is playing outside too. Ryan joshes the other kid to play with the Toy himself and won't give it back for a solid 15 minutes whether the other kid needs to go in and go homework - it's okay because he's Toyman even if he's self appointed. He's just joshing.
