    Is Gerry Ryan's interview with Eamon Dunphy on Ryan Confidential a few years ago available to watch online anywhere?

    Not surprised, I made complaints about several shows over the years, same response. "RTE in the wrong? Never! pi$$ off you pleb! but make sure you keep paying your license fee"

    Basicly that the word "penis" was anatomicaly correct and that the conversation was about dogs penises so it did just what it said on the tin with regard to the show.
    They also said that kids should be at school during the morning so how could they possibly listen to the show and that Gerry is a regular ould shock jock and i'm a fuddy-duddy for having a problem.
    A load of feckin crap is what it is.
    He used other words to describe penises on that particular show but i didnt quote him properly i suppose.
    I'll be listening very carefully next time for vulgarity..how him and that loony one are even allowed airtime given thier lack of talent is beyond me..the lavatorial filth they com out with however should be subject to action on the grounds of good taste and decency.
    Pair of cnunts.

    I was listening to him yesterday and he gave a middle aged woman the prize of a pearl necklace from his santas sack. I turned up the radio in anticipation of some smutty innuendo regarding pearl necklaces and bulging sacks....

    and nothing....? what the hell. He must be reading this thread or something.

    Will be interesting to see how they can defend my complaint to them and the BCI over his use of the word 'fuck' three times in the space of a forthnight.

    I complained a few years ago about him using the word w**ker several times.
    They said it was within the context of the show so over ruled the complaint.

    I fully agree with RTE not upholding the complaints about peoples offence at his sporadic bad language. Good on them.

    The content that people are finding objectionable isn't a recent development on the Gerry Ryan show, he has been saying the same sort of things for over 20 years now.

    He's doing a great job at the moment, singing the praises of Fianna Fail and how they got their budget spot on...(In the eyes of the international community of course) Using phrases like "Radical Thinking" he's doing a better job than any PR spin doctor.
    And the guys he's interviewing about it, by and large, are meek and won't argue with him.
    Jesus, I can't WAIT for Pat Kenny to come on at 10 so he can at least make it uncomfortable for the Minister.

    agreed.
    i know p kenny is called a boring oul fart.

    but the guy is smart and is undoubtedly talented esp with current affairs.

    gerry is neither. except he thinks he has a voice that makes women swoon.

    ed note: eh gerry, thats disgust not swooning

    Well maybe its time to move on and replace him with somebody less crass and offensive and downright untalented..there's millions of people in this country and they wheel this foul-mouthed boor out every day to spout his puerile nonsense on behalf of the people.

    He's a petulant so and so when someone disagrees with him, fair play to her -who needs Santa's sack anyway lol - how dare that woman tell him he was talking over his guest, G Ryan would never do that.:mad:

    There's a giggling woman on now with a knicker story who is massaging Gerry's perversion. He's asking her ALL about them. Please describe them in detail etc.
    But she got something from the sack, so..........:eek:

    The Gerry Ryan show has turned into a 3 hour daily promotion for the O2 arena. Gerry will interview guests playing at the O2, followed by Gerry telling us he was at the O2 last night and saw such and such, while they were great (NEVER a bad concert at the O2), the real star of the show was the O2, because the O2 is great. Followed by another interview with someone who Gerry saw play at the O2, 20 minute interview with 10 minutes devoted to the venue itself. Then a slot on how the new bridge makes the O2 even better, followed by someone on from Dublin County Council on how the Luas serves the O2 brilliantly.

    He never mentions the €6 for 400ml of beer, or shíte food, probably because he gets VIP tickets and that area has good food and free drink

    Excellent point.
    Maybe RTE would have to take THAT complaint seriously

    Another product placement, as it were.
    He was saying how he was really looking forward to seeing "Avatar" next week, and pleaded with everyone to go and see it in the Savoy in O'Connell St, and not other cinemas.
    I wonder now, if when he does go, and brings all the "Ryan Children" and their friends, will he be paying out of his outragreous salary, or will the Savoy comp him?
    Maybe like he pays for all those o2 gigs he goes to........
