I thought that title went to RRRRRRRRichard Collins from the friday shows.

In order to make a (weak and inconsequential) point, dear Richard wanders off on long waffling journey. Please don't be so ponderous. It detracts from his obvious knowledge and opinions.

Laugh.....I nearly started

Singing In The Shower,
Singing for a prize..
Now guest singers..

Seems that Mooney is trying to fill up the show with musical items to save himself the work.. A bit like Tubridy with the YouTube clips on the Late Late.

Mooney: "I'm a very good massuer actually"

Harry Angstrom · 16-10-2014 3:27pm

Mattresses on Mooney.

If it was April 1st, I'd say they were taking the piss.

Yakuza · 17-10-2014 3:15pm

Jaysus love, book doesn't rhyme with puke, it has the same oo sound as "wood".
Eanna and Richard up to their usual good job of not letting the guest get a word in edgeways, so they can show off their vast array of knowledge :mad:

Bellerstring · 14-11-2014 4:54pm

It's been 4 weeks now since the last post on this thread.......
4 WEEKS!!!!!
What's happening?
Have we all tuned out people?
Hello...?
Anybody out there.....???

Odyssey 2005 · 14-11-2014 5:24pm

That's what a crap show with an even "crapper"&#55357;&#56849;presenter does...

Emm ... yes. Derek has lost 12% of his listeners since this time last year. They've either switched over (Moncrieff up 4% and Lyric's Kelly & Nolan shows up 18%) or switched off.

Limerick competition - first line: One day under Cleary's clock

Where he trying to go with this?

Bellerstring · 24-11-2014 4:16pm

Mooney talking to Hot Dog guy in Belfast.

"Hmmm.... I love Frankfurters.
I've had MANY a Frankfurter in MY time...!!!"

Oeerr, Matron!!!!:rolleyes:

so Derek likes a german sausage

bbability · 25-11-2014 12:24am

ok folks enough please.

CountyHurler · 25-11-2014 4:32pm

Why dont they give that slot to some proper Irish band instead of consistently helping Louis Walsh to line his pockets on RTE's time...

I believe they are both from Louis' stable... I'm sure that's probably where he kept them as well..

MJ23 · 25-11-2014 9:42pm

Without doubt, the worst show on any radio station in Ireland. I haven't listened for a long time as I just couldn't stand it any longer. I still look at this to see what's going on. Still the same, sausage song contest, Louie, Mary Button, Jedward. Utter Bullsh!t.
How does RTE continue to let this go on? And how does Brek put up with him?

Oops69 · 26-11-2014 1:07am

Listened a bit today for the first time in ages , this show is an embarrassment to have on a schedule by a national broadcaster , are the bosses in Montrose not equally or more embarrassed ?, if they have any professional dignity or integrity they would drop this appalling mess of a show immediiatley, it is a brazen- faced insult to the licence fee payer.

Aren't there rumours that Derek is leaving the show in the new year ?

Odyssey 2005 · 27-11-2014 4:12pm

had these ppl no house insurance?

Odyssey 2005 · 27-11-2014 4:18pm

Sorry luv but you don`t have to be educated to know that you need house insurance,and if you drive you need car insurance.

Robert2012 · 27-11-2014 4:18pm

Is this still Liveline?...Joe will be kicking himself that he's missing this light-entertainment story :rolleyes:

Over here, you're obliged to have house/residential insurance. (it covers you if someone gets injured in your home, or if you cause an injury to someone.)

Robert2012 · 27-11-2014 4:22pm

I'd say a new house would be a better offer than beds....

Over here its the same if you are paying for the house with a morguafe:).Its just common sence to have insurance if you own the house outright. But some people feel entitled.

You have to have it here even if you're renting! I feel happier with it anyway.

Odyssey 2005 · 27-11-2014 4:35pm

I wonder would the ppl involved in this horrific incidend offer to help the rest of us if the shoe was on the other foot.

Woodville56 · 27-11-2014 4:50pm

Did I hear correctly that the lady making the appeal on behalf of that unfortunate family was a contestant in The Apprentice and that she's now working with Irish TV ? Nothing like keeping a high profile I suppose !
And this young entrepreneur lad currently on - a friend of someone Derek bumped into yesterday ? Nice publicity and exposure for his business ! I know lots of enterprising people would love a publicity boost like that , unfortunately none of us have friends who have friends in RTE !

Edit: and sure while we're at it, might as well interview his girlfriend as well !

Terrible programme really, seems very "ad hoc" and self serving. The Friday " goes wild" programme is enjoyable enough, more because of the subject /content and panellists or interviewees than Mr Mooney's input !

Why is it all the best rumours turn out to be false , Derek is here for the duration, I remeber in uncle GAybos days, there were regular rumours that he was leaving the station , but it was all about contract renewal negotiations .

Yes, I fear Derek might be with us for the foreseeable future, because lets be honest, where else could he possibly get a job?

padd b1975 · 28-11-2014 9:42am

This show badly needs a strong producer, way too many of Derek's whims being indulged of late.

Stand by for a visit from Broderick and Hughes to shill their latest innuendo laden rubbish.

I don't mind whims being indulged, But when it's the same whims repeatedly e.g eurovision , blue tits , cheap west end musicals etc. it's just boring .

Not sure who's producing it now, but for a while it was being produced by Fergus Sweeney, ex BBC Radio 5. I don't know how it breaks out between them as to what content is going to be on the show.

Anyone listening to this...?
3 blokes, gibbering on about intros to songs.
And O'Donohoe shouting in from the background.
Drivel, Drivel,Drivel.

That's it!!!
I do too!!
It's just to annoy myself.
Moncreiff is so much better, but he doesn't annoy me, so I mostly only listen to Moncreiff's Movies & Booze on Friday, which is unmissable.
Glad I'm not the only poster who actually SEEKS OUT annoyance!!

Mooney Show axed.

Derek Mooney to become executive producer of RTE's nature and wildlife programmes. Mooney Goes Wild will return to weekends.

CountyHurler · 04-12-2014 2:21pm

For the last year or so, it seems to me that Mooney sees the show more and more like a chore.. he's been away for a huge amount of time, and when he gets back he usually starts the show with one of his many rants. I'm sure he was very upset about the recent BAI decision against him, in the same way that he normally gets in a strop when anybody disagrees with him about anything...

He's has all the hallmarks of just simply being in the job too long.... Joe Duffy shows all of these similar traits and hopefully he will "move" soon too, for the sake of the Liveline show..
