    It reminds me of the way that everybody was afraid to say anything about Jimmy Savile.

    Reminiscent, but different. In my travels around the UK, I knew three or more people who, as youngsters, were groped and/or actually assaulted by JS. They were vocal enough about it later, but nobody outside their circles of friends would listen to them. Everybody in the media knew he was a dirty old man, and had been a dirty younger wan too, but he became too powerful to criticise.
    He was very crafty, as well as being a nasty old perve.
    Joe, otoh, is as we see and hear him - a bit of a hypocritical bullchitter, with a penchant for quaintly old-fashioned clashing styles and enjoys being a 'success' in his own mind. His ghoulish fascinations and over-paid fee structure aside, we could do worse. Of course, we could do better, for a quarter of the price.
    He's a twat, but moderately harmless, and I don't feel like chucking him under a bus, unlike Savile.

    Ya know the way some uppity priests wear red socks because the bishop wears a lot of red and they want to feel superior to the rest of us plebs?

    That's our Joey right there, a sanctimonious prig who feels superior to the working and middle classes, he drinks and dines with the bishops and politicians and pat Hickeys of the world!

    No! Talk to Joe. Then he can get the Indo on too, and we'll all be confused.

    You'd think they could at least put on a "best of" show on a bank holiday, instead of this rubbish. Joe vs the Brazilian copper; Joe and "I'll calm down if you calm down"; Joe "will that be your main holiday this year Mary"; Jameson/Guinness or Marie who lives in a nice area.

    Be careful what you wish for. We could end out with a "Best of Funny Friday ".

    I'd rather turn the crap we had on today off, rather than turn "FF Gold " off.

    Saw it late last night, ironically as I sat down to write "Me Weekly Column, by me, Joe Duffy so to speak". Don't really know what to say so to speak. It's not even remotely subtle.

    Any chance you could call Liveline to complain to Joe Duffy of the plagiarism?

    C'mon Butters, don't get distracted. I never thought for a second that you were actually Eilis O'Indo.

    To be fair, so to speak, this is not a new thing to her. She does a different person every week. Bertie, Gerry Adams, etc. Having said that, I'm sure she's been trawling through the forum for "inspiration".

    Inspiration is one thing, there are parts of that piece that are more than "inspired" by the thread, and my own creative "work" so to speak.....

    There's many things I'm sure Joe has called me when he's reading my complaints (I'm not naive enough to think the complaints process is formal in RTE, I'd be fairly sure the staff pass them around and just laugh at them as they clearly have no impact on the host or content), but I doubt "me auld pal" is one of them.

    Looks like a quiet night for the fibergade, the youth of today don't be having the backbone to be collecting the materials so to speak for making de big fires, they be spending their days on their Ex Boxes and Eye Phones instead, sad state of affairs to to speak.

    The comment I posted in the indo comments section never made it online. Here's what I posted:

    I suspect as my name is ButtersSuki there too it didn't help.....

    Anyone interested in posting something pouting Eilis' source material?
