    At least it's in the context of Enda Kenny's speech yesterday, which is a topical issue, rather than revisiting Artane again and again.

    But as you say, there's only so much of this you can take in one week!

    They are discussing the man sent to prison for 12 years ...

    This caller says 'he deserves a medal' Hmmm ...

    She just called him JOE!!!!

    I have to say this is what Liveline should be about before JD lost the run of himself on his ego trip.

    Listened in today and thought it was good for a while -when it started to remind me of the Adrian Kennedy phone show I switched off.

    Dreading how much this new tax will be, its one thing after the other. I would much prefer taxation from source, at least that way I know what my take home pay is. If I have to pay for it, I don't believe those on the dole should be exempt, deduct 1 euro a week from them towards it too.

    I happened to tune in today to this show and they had Gerald Kean (Solicitor to the stars) presenting the show filling in for Dave Harvey! - he'll be on again tomorrow and Tuesday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,626 ✭✭✭GSF


    Harvey always sounds like a hardcore FF'r to me anytime I hear him.

    More bullsh1t of "celebrity" non-broadcasters presenting radio shows, an approach pioneered by Newstalk. (Hook, Yates, Bobby Kerr, etc.)

    Anyone listening to his show today?

    it's like the radio version of Jeremy Kyle.

    Some strange people out there.

    Harvey himself I find quite disturbing, for an intelligent guy he comes out with some rather strange comments and varies from patronising certain callers to almost attacking them at times, that's entertainment I guess but I just find his approach quite unmannerly and ignorant on occasion. Then again considering the intellectual level of some of the callers the show attracts maybe it's understandable. Car crash radio is the only way I can describe it.

    I had the misfortune a few days ago to listen. Some clown on boasting how he would "take on" an attacker armed with an AK47.

    Deluded doesnt even begin to describe some of the callers.

    BTW Jeremy Kyle started in radio & I think he still does have a radio call in show?

    Harvey on radio comes across as cold , dispassionate and curt. He simply lacks empathy and warmth in interviews, I think he comes from the same school as PK when it comes to human engagement.

    I think this show just about edges Liveline for comedy value. It's only been on 10 minutes and already there's been
    "Give pedos the lethal injection"
    "I wouldn't wash no cars for them pigs (police)"
    "You have to de-labelise these scumbags"

    It's like Funny Friday on acid.

    Seems to be bringing home the bacon judging by above. Any views re possible Presidential Commode Emptying?

    Lively discussion of the Naas Mayor's comments about Black Africans today.

    This is better than Liveline, not afraid to tackle the issues.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,026 ✭✭✭✭neris


    Joe Duffy never tackles issues of importance coz he cant force his opinion on people then. Hes talking bout some religous boliks now on rte must be licking up to the church after their litle spat with the priest


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,873 ✭✭✭Skid


    David Harvey is alright, he stirs it up a bit now and then, but he doesn't let the callers ramble on for ages like Duffy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 822 ✭✭✭newcavanman


    I have to say, i find myself listening to this programme more regularly than i thought i would . D Harvey seems to have somewhat similar opinions to myself, and that really makes a change from the crap that joe duffy usually spouts

    I like Harv,the anti Joe Duffy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 130 ✭✭woysworld


    Well the "SH1T stirrer" at it again.... talking to a guy who is explaining about his mum suffering from hypothermia, and he has to bring in the people from eastern Europe & Nigeria.

    He reads a text from a listener claiming that Nigerians get extra payments "to keep them warm", and then he adds to this "crap" by saying they need it because they are used to being warm "in the jungle".... Then refers to this country, that in the near future we will have loads of east european "spungers"........................

    This show is for eejits who think The FM104 Phone Show is too liberal.

    What are they on about?
    Cancelling television licences and effin this and effin that


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,653 ✭✭✭Worztron


    A new low was reached yesterday with the tripe that David Harvey was spouting. He is a right wing narrow minded snob.

    Mitch Hedberg: "Rice is great if you're really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something."



  • Registered Users Posts: 20,026 ✭✭✭✭neris


    well at least hes a bit more topical and not afraid of heated debate on his show unlike the champagne and caviar socialist man of the people over on rte1.

    Well you obviously weren't listening yesterday, great show about abortion, the issue of the moment, that he handled well, whereas the Harvey show is aimed at cnuts who find The Sun too intellectually challenging.
