    Has anyone here ever phoned Joe Duffy to complain/be outraged about something? Or has anyone ever phoned the Adrian Kennedy show to do likewise?

    The latter's more shameful, of course. The Adrian Kennedy phone-in makes the Joe Duffy show seem like a Mensa convention in comparison.

    I did send Joe an email but he wasn't interested in talking about the price of coke and hookers during a recession.

    No.

    I sent them both an invitation to the gun show, no reply :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,547 ✭✭✭Agricola


    Nope. I rarely get outraged about anything, but If I did, the last thing I would think of doing would be to ring up a radio show in order to inflict my over-inflated sense of self importance on the nation.

    I always wondered who they were to.

    Apparently the produces ring you and ask you to ring Joe.

    Well apart from the nurses who seem to have Joe on speed dial.

    I rang in to complain about Robbie Keane's singing.

    Totally off-key.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    Myself and many Airsofters phoned in after he repeatedly gave Airsoft a bad rep (shortly after it was legalised here).

    He kept doing shows on the topic and asking stupid questions like "Can these guns take an eye out or kill someone" even though his researchers had been provided with all the facts many many times.

    There was a fair bit of anti-Airsoft publicity at the time, especially (and ironically) by one of the Sinn Fein politicians, so we were trying to counteract it.

    Not sure if it had any effect, but it was good embarrassing Joe, and Airsoft is still legal.

    You told on me to Joe?

    You used to be cool, Moo.

    "Howya Joe."

    "Howya Mr. King. Now you have a problem with the internet, is it?"

    "I do Joe. I'm after goin' on the internet there for the first time, on the youngest's computer, and what's the first thing I seen is that there's bin a massacre down in Tesco. Sure didn't I get an awful shock as wasn't the wife in Tesco doin' the shoppin'! I had to look up the number in the phonebook and ask them to call out her name on the intercom to check if she was alright. Now your one on the phone said 'sure there's no massacre here' but I got them to call Mary anyway, but thanks be to God be that stage she'd already left and was in the butcher's gettin' a few sausages. "

    "And what kind of a massacre would that be now?"

    "I don't know Joe, but the young people now'd be using the internet sayin' there's massacres in Tesco when there's not, an givin' people a fright."

    "Right. And what do you think should be done about it?"

    "They should close it! Sure there's only a load of aul' rubbish on there anyway, cats playing the piano an' all mannera filthy stuff!"

    "Sure, yeah."

    You're right. :(

    In fact, it's a disgrace that I'm not cool anymore.

    Maybe I could call someone about it...

    I text Adrian Kennedy one night and they called me back, and chat to me for a while but it was fine, not much to talk about, it wasn't part of any debate. That was it. We never stayed in touch or anything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 814 ✭✭✭Tesco Massacre


    Excerpt from random episode of Adrian Kennedy show:

    Adrian: Hi, Damo, you're on the air. You've got some very strong views you'd like to share, is that right?
    Damo: *crackle* *distortion*....'Coz it's full a ****in' blacks, Adrian.
    A: Sorry Damo, we didn't catch the first part of your...
    D: *crackle* In a ****in' gas chamber. D'ya know what I mean, Adrian?
    A: Erm. Sorry, Damo, can you just start your point again. You're breaking up. Maybe you should turn off your radio as well. There's an echo.
    D: Sorry, wha'?
    A: Damo, can you turn off your radio?
    D: *shouting* TURN OFF THE FUC*IN' RADIO, MAGS, WILL YA'?
    A: That's better. Now Damo, what's your...
    Mags: *Shouting* Fu*k off. Do it yourself, Damo, ye bollix. I'm not doin' sh*te.
    D: Ye fuc*kin' dirty whoore.
    A: Can we get back to your point, Damo.
    D: Who's this?
    A: It's Adrian Kennedy. You rang up earlier wanting to make a point about immigration.
    D: I did in me bollix.

    Fin.

    I think The Adrian Kennedy phone show to be fairly entertaining for the hour or so before they start the topics proper.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Running a headshop? Joe Duffy reckons you are scum, scum I say
    Selling blackmarket cigarettes on Moore Street? You are a salt of the earth Dub, one of Joe's special people

    Can someone tell Joe Duffy that RTÉ is not Dublin local radio. If he's going to list some random street we don't all know it's in Dublin, tell us where it is


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,867 ✭✭✭UglyBolloxFace


    I've rung Adrian Kennedy, but that was only to call him a cunt.

    If only for the radio delay, everyone would have heard it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,318 ✭✭✭Fishooks12


    I tried to get throw in the midst of the rubberbandits bashing

    Fortunately Willie O Dea and one of the bandits managed to make a complete fool out of Duffy and the wanker he had on.

    Duffy genuinely thought that they were actually scummers, such poor research not to mention naivety

    Bring back the smooth silky voice of Philip Boucher Hayes, did a fine job last year

    The Adrian Kennedy show is essentially a radio version of Jeremy Kyle anyway.

    Chris Barry was the king long before Adrian

    Airsoft

    You could take someone's eye out with that.

    Before I die I plan on doing a bit of radio switch-a-roo with Adrian Kennedy and Joe Duffy........I want to call someone a scumbag on the Joe Duffy Show and complain about the price of stamps on Adrian Kennedy

    So much living to be done! :o

    No, but I think it would be funny to ring in and start Trolling though.

    Maybe ring in to Adrian Kennedy and pretend to be a scumbag, condoning scamming the dole, fathering multiple kids with different 'burds', taking Crystal Meth etc, all the good stuff.

    I'm sure his switch board would light up in no time.

    What better way to hone your Trolling skills?!
