These "Who's in the tent with me" clips are dreadful....

All the "light entertainment" stuff he does is terrible... Every morning he puts on that forced, jokey tone and just starts talking complete b*ll*x, which we are meant to find funny. Interspersed with youtube clips and stock audio noises (with the obligatory ten second pause as John fights the mouse and Windows Media Player). They should just drop every "comedy" element to the show and play it straight...

Just came here to warn ye about that before I go to sleep. I'm sure I'll have sweet dreams with that in my subconsciousness.

It was straight to the off button when I heard "placenta". FFS, at this hour of the morning:mad::eek:

IvyTheTerrible · 12-06-2014 9:09am

Ah John, asking a question to which the interviewee gave the answer 2 minutes before. At least pretend to listen.

If you think that's bad, while his "jokes" were on I ate my own foot..

thesandeman · 12-06-2014 9:25am

FOOK!!! I'm having nightmares. And I haven't even drifted off yet.

IvyTheTerrible · 12-06-2014 9:27am

I don't get this, last year someone talking about breastfeeding put John off his breakfast and now he thinks it's ok to talk about eating placenta at breakfast time? Hypocrisy much?

sudzs · 12-06-2014 9:29am

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall made placenta paté years ago. :rolleyes:

sudzs · 12-06-2014 9:34am

Would these hormones and antibodies she is consuming by eating her placenta, survive the digestion process? I doubt it. :rolleyes:

"it's anecdotal" HA!!

take everything · 12-06-2014 9:37am

Lol at John Murray barely able to hide his disgust and scepticism at your one and her placenta.

sudzs · 12-06-2014 9:43am

Go on John, ask him if the Korean daughter in law ate her placenta?? :rolleyes:

Anyone get the feeling that they've ran out of people for the World Cup competition? Sounds desperately like clutching at straws now

"Howrya Mick, you were in holland during a school tour twenty six years ago, how would you describe the mood of the nation ahead of the world cup".

IvyTheTerrible · 16-06-2014 9:27am

So mannnny clichés.
Also are we back in the 50's? Don't sleep with the guy on the first date cos if he doesn't call you back you'll feel cheap! May the woman is out for a quickie too?

Also, why should anyone take dating advice from someone who hasn't actually "successful" herself?

CountyHurler · 16-06-2014 9:34am

Five years later and they are still SHOUTING ALL THEIR SONGS..

CountyHurler · 16-06-2014 9:53am

Up next heathers with another song.... Shout by Lulu I'm guessing..

CountyHurler · 19-06-2014 9:43am

Is Murray going to go on with this nonsense for the entire world cup?

Murray: "And what is your connection to Japan?"
Caller: "My brother lives in Japan and married a Japanese woman."
Murray: "And how do you think the Japanese team will do in the next game".
Caller: "How the f**k would I know John, I said my brother lives in Japan, I didnt say that I took a degree in Japanese football "

That cynical, smart a$se Looney in now as well.. I think she should marry John Drennon and they could sail off in to the facetious, sarcastic sunset together.. ahhhhh.. I feel better now.. back to painting my wall.. :-)

Makes Marty look positively erudite. I've even found myself switching over recently :eek:

9am-10am on radio is truly an abysmal black hole these days.

CountyHurler · 23-06-2014 9:14am

"And just to remind people, you used to live in Belgium sixteen years ago"..

So now RTE present this caller (who is most probably related to somebody in RTE) is presented to us as a "die hard" Belgian fan and are asked for their opinions on the Blegium game... Murray is surely not gonna get away with this nonsense until the final??

He's committed to this nonsense now for another couple of weeks , he's screwed.

He's been getting away with this sort of muck for the last 4 years; why do you think June and July will be any different?

That just means that Kathryn Thomas will be back shrieking at us :eek:

I've given up on the 9am slot altogether now.

CountyHurler · 25-06-2014 8:51am

Just heard the promo there.. John will be talking to more people about how "their team" will fare in the second round of the world cup.. I doubt any of them even know that the team qualified for the second round..

I'm just waiting for one of them to say:
"John, I was only in Colombia for half an hour while I was waiting on a connecting flight, I really dont give a sh1t how they do in the world cup"...

He should just use the same two guys for the rest of this charade , one for all the South American teams and one for the Netherlands and Germany , the actor can just change the accent slightly , it'll save all this cringy teeth-pulling he does trying to get a response from these 'representatives ' of their countries who passed through Colombia on their year out travelling the world .

Jeez he's off already , I spoke too soon !

Playgiaristwright Fiona Looney in again to talk more b*ll*x....

Harry Angstrom · 26-06-2014 9:22am

Hey John, I once ate a Brazil nut. I think that qualifies me to be Brazil's number one fan.

Bellerstring · 26-06-2014 9:59am

Why didn't he tell this one in a more hard hitting fashion that she's NOT off the cigarettes!
Giving them up but going back on them for special occasions like her "daughter's communion" does not constitute giving them up.
You are a smoker!:(

I can't listen to him at all these days, as soon as morning Ireland is over I switch to Ivan and Chris on Newstalk. Then either back to SOR or stick with Pat Kenny. How in the name of god is John Murray getting away with it?

No County, in my opinion cannot handle a name show.

Bit part lad, in my opinion, was passable on MI as a bench player.

Just passable.

Hasn't the presence to anchor a full show.

"He's call me Clare-bear and his favourite word is "debatable" "

I'd say that poor chap is mortified..

Which nonsense? Lame intro jokes or deluded football fans or Fiona "resident soccer pundit although I'm a GAA-head really"?

Meanwhile the combination of Marty and Donald Where's Your Troosers on Lyric is also sending me over the edge.

Silent contemplation for me for the next hour.

RTE really is infested with buskers and troubadours in the off season.
