"In an RTE exclusive, and a LLS show first, Ryan will be interviewing himself about the release of his new book.

He will be asking himself all the tough questions. His privileged up bringing, he explains his rapid ascent through RTE while devoid of any real talent.

He opens up about his troubled past, how he once kept a library book out for more than 3 weeks and how he was affected by a trip to the northside in 2002.

Ryan will have a copy of his new colouring book of “JFK. A money spinner” for everyone in the audience( available at the RRP €19.99. credit cards welcome)"

That's the word, yeah. That means it is either Michael Birch, or someone is confused and said Bebo because Twitter use their old offices.

JonathanAnon

I see his book is being made in to a movie..

Brilliant, LOL:D

Watched this awful awful nonsense last week for the first time in an age, Jezz it goes from bad to worse. This said, i would love to see Gerald Kean, Lisa Murphy and flatley on the same sofa. As for the Twitter Guy, how Ironic he is going to be interviewed by the great Twit Ireland has produced.

yeah they're all here.. Global web giants get together at Dublin events

CHAD HURLEY, Niklas Zennstrom, Michael Birch and Jack Dorsey certainly are not household names.But YouTube, Skype, Bebo and Twitter, the web companies they started certainly are and rank among the most influential and most valuable web companies of the last decade..........................

It was kind of a given which one Tubridy would ask on to the show really..

StaticNoise

Yus, I see.

However, Birch wouldn't really give a riveting chat, I wouldn't say. It will be shadowed by Dorsey. He's a nice guy, however.

Andrea Corr has a solo career? Who knew?

Keano

Would like to watch the interview with Twitter founder but can I put up with Tubridy asking him stupid questions...

It's inevitable after Jim got tin-foil poisoning.

Might actually be worth watching tonight...

Yeah... I wouldnt bet on it

This show has gone from bad to worse, and in my opinion should be axed. Tubs is no good in this type of show unfortunately and the guests are shi*e most weeks.

Lol on the post above about Tubs book. So funny coz RTE would have him interviewing himself if possible! For some reason RTE adore this beanpole.

Going to listen to the Twitter founder on The Last Word instead, and skip The Late Late Show.

Since they've got Twitter's founder on, I wonder will they hit the #latelate feed?
If you've ever seen it, it's always tearing apart the guests and Tubridy.

It's quite hilarious. And I'm a big fan of Tubridy.

I think Pat would be a good interviewer of the twitter and bebo guys - leave tubby for Dustin. Off to Tesco for some beer.

Didn't even know there was a Late Late hashtag. Will be getting in on that tonight

Panthro

Got the pizza and the garlic bread on standby, another Friday night in, (living the dream!) going to be watching the Late Late and thanking God I'm not half the tool DLB is.
And of course reading, giggling and posting on the Boards!:)

hmmm

"Do you have any Irish relatives?"
"Do you have any advice for us in Ireland?"
"I believe you once met one of the Kennedys, what was that like? Were you allowed touch them? I'm not longer allowed touch them."
"The Interwebs, isn't that just tubes full of filth? It will never catch on surely?"
"I'd like to remind the folks at home that if they have any questions, fax RTE on 016......"

Evening all

Tomohawk

Jean Byrne is going for the rubber nurse look tonight on the weather

what are we all having to drink tonight to get us through this LLS

JonathanAnon

Evening lads, 2 Bottles of red wine and 10 bottles of Nobelaner..

Unfortunately tonight's not gonna reach the heights of Poly's post earlier on.. My particular favourite line being

He opens up about his troubled past, how he once kept a library book out for more than 3 weeks and how he was affected by a trip to the northside in 2002.

I was jealous of all his thankszzzz and tried to be funny, but I struggle to be humourous "on the tilt"...

Tomohawk

1 can of lager thats all tonight

JonathanAnon

oh I take it ye all heard that Micheál Martin's 7 year old daughter died today in Great Ormond Street Hospital .... she had a heart condition... I'd say he will probably mention it before the first break...

Squiggle

24 pack of Miller...................+ bottle of Jameson to be safe.

hmmm

I'm always terrified when he comes down the stairs that he's going to try out his version of a humorous monologue.

Frankly without Jean Byrne none of this matters.

amacachi

Tubridy thinks legs are important to Irish dancing, Christ he works hard for his pay.

deelite

How soon will Tubs mention Margarine or Butter any takers???

How soon will somebody ask what DLB is?

Koloman

Flatley sounds like a Simpson's character from the Irish episodes. Begorrah!

This is a great interview, an insightful view into Flatley and what drives him.

"Legs, they're important yes?"
"The costumes are lovely right?"
"Where do you buy your furniture?"
