Didn't Christy Moore have that problem as well, (Arthur-itis), he even wrote a song about it.:D

This is one stupid and inane conversation. "How to say goodbye" :rolleyes:

Bateman

Was on the way into work and heard what they were going to be talking about. I thought to myself, just as well I don't have a radio in the office as it would go through the window.

So what is the correct way to say goodbye? :rolleyes:

Leaving a party should go something like this:

Invitee: "Right folks, I'm going to fcuk off".
Host: "Well fcuk off then".

What's so complicated?

Enjoyed the show this morning . Even the bit about how to say good bye!

.To think even he can get this disease....Do you think that because he is a radio presenter, he would be immune to depression? It doesn't work that way.

Actually, it's quite the opposite in my own experience, with severe depression and conditions such as bi-polarity being far more common than you'd expect among radio presenters.

Sorry what I meant was, you said people mentioned he had a bad back. While he was out sick people were saying that because they already knew he had arthritis (and he has been out sick with that before this)

At least he's back and doing his job.

Did anyone else think it was funny that he said he didn't discuss his former wife in the book because it wasn't for him to discuss and then went on to discuss her on air?

It gives them plenty of filler for the show.

I think it's something else, cos I mean he's making sense. And I heard him interviewed somewhere else and he sounded the same.

IvyTheTerrible

Annnd he's after saying it's because of his diabetes.

Oops69

Heard that later , sorry Brendan

CountyHurler

John Murray trying every possible way of not saying "You dont get paid for it. So it's a hobby then?"

IvyTheTerrible

I would hate to have to deal with Brendan Courtney if I was working in retail.

IvyTheTerrible

It would be nice if they would give tips to customers to be less rude as well.

Totally agree, gone beyond sell by date

Heard a rugby ref being interviewed this morning, and John trotted out the old chestnut of rugby players being much more respectful to the ref than footballers,
(I refuse to use the term "soccer players", they are footballers!).
What a loads of B******s, these are the same rugby players who regularly bite, eye gouge, stamp on and punch opponents, even at international level.
It's the sort of pretentious crap I've come to expect from the D4 set and RTE in particular.
I agree that football has many problems which need to be sorted, but I find such holier than thou preaching from the rugby bods sickening. :mad:


Rant over!

Losty Dublin

I wonder how many complaints John will receive for his joke aimed at deaf people and sign language?

That was Welshman Nigel Owens, who is also known for being openly gay, and who spoke about it in the interview.

Thought it was a good interview myself.
