    What the fupp? Half measures? Poor old Myles can't even fill 90 minutes (of which 20 is ads and news).

    Less than 10 minutes on the Quinn family and now we are onto a piece about the history of RTE. Arts, History and licking the arse of RTE heirarchy. This segment is the pinnacle of Myles' broadcasting career.

    I'm off to BBC5....

    Is it just me or do Myles and Des have a similar relationship to Derek Mooney and John Kenny? Seems to be a bit of needle there..

    These people need to talk to their unions, never mind being on RTE.. They are in a better position than most private workers.

    They shouldn't be turning up their noses at sub work. In French second level, they don't get a sub teacher unless the real teacher is away for 3 weeks.

    I wish Myles would shut up about the fact that he supports Arsenal. We don't feckin care. He never wastes an opportunity to remind us that he supports them. Give it a rest Myles!

    He was in self-deprecation mode. That's a very poor basis for anybody else to deprecate him.

    Myles doesn't sound very sincere even when he's in self-deprecation mode. It was just an excuse for him to mention Arsenal. Only Myles could get an Arsenal plug in when El Clasico is being discussed.

    But Myles was in London commentating on the K1 canoe slalom, how could he be doing both that and the radio show?

    How true, but I think we all know that he just wanted to tell us he loves arsenal, and how he suffered for this love,.....and.....that this suffering happened outside, did he pratishly call it, the (bound to have put the "the" in) Camp Nou. That is, it happened in Barcelona. Bleedin' wa**er!

    No, we don't all know that. He had an anecdote that related to the content of the programme, and the way he told it made fun of himself and his support of Arsenal. As a moment in a radio programme, it was perfectly acceptable.

    History show alert. There will be a segment on the civil war in the former Yugoslavia on the "live" history show in the next few weeks.

    Still peddling the infinite growth brand of economics. I guess he was a flop at math.

    Did Des Cahill forget his glasses or something... sounded like a bit of a struggle for him to read there.

    The Nagasaki book author qas quite good.

    The two bombs packed a hell of a punch despite being quite low yield (compared to modern weapons)
