    Heard someone on the show this morning, didn't catch the name, who sounded a lot like Eamonn Keane, formerly of NewsTalk.

    Anyone hear it and able to confirm?

    Yep, it was Eamonn Keane. He was singing one of his songs, talking about his father's problems with addiction, and how he wants to become a counselor.

    It's the same song he was doing the rounds with a couple of years ago.. I dont think it's very good... It's the sort of song that I'm sure he himself thinks is profound, with a profound topic and a profound title... but its really just not a good song..

    Another on air therapist for the JM show? I'd say Michael Murphy must be fierce upset; that's his gig :pac:

    Well, judging from Derek Mooney's introduction today (I know, I was listening - I "accidentally" heard it - honest! :o ) Michael Murphy has moved to that show instead! So maybe there's room for 2 (or 3 if you count the slot that Marian Finucane has).

    Diarmuid Ferriter did a great job of not mentioning academics and RTE broadcasters among the elite in society..

    An online dating agency.. This was somebody's "brainchild" ten years ago... why are they presenting this as something new...

    Murray: "Are looks important?"
    Online Dating Guy: "No, looks arent important at all".
    :rolleyes:

    Waffling exactly the same tripe he was waffling on Joe Duffy a year ago. "I'd love to meet her and discuss what I can do"

    Rarely do I listen to this show but I had to hear berks former employees story. I commend john Murray for allowing her to respond to berks self centered, self promoting rant the previous day. Berks treatment of her & indeed numerous suppliers is quite simply disgusting, he then decided to come on the show a second time to dig the hole he is in even deeper. Rarely have I heard such arrogance on radio, he told listeners how braze he was, perhaps the word he should have used was brazen. How any supplier, potential employee would consider for one second dealing with or supporting any new venture of his is beggars belief. Berk & cowboys like him are the very reason so many people have left the catering business.

    Is maith an scáthán súil charad.

    Couple of risqué jokes this morning.. The one about Gerry Adams "blowing stuff up", and the one about the rubber gloves.. I think Delamere might be a bit too on the edge for Radio One.. I'm sure there will be a few stuffed shirts listening back to this upstairs later on today.

    That interview with the son of John Wayne this morning was downright bizarre.

    I hope they get rid of Miriam as soon as possible as she has no personality and never engages with anyone she is interviewing.

    The fact that the woman cannot even confirm if it could be her dog says alot. So she just lets the dog out and keeps no attention as to where it goes. Sigh.

    RTE really need to stop naming shows after presenters.

    Murray's been out for about two months now hasn't he? Must be serious whatever it is ails him for this long.
