Sean O'Rourke Today Show

Nah. One was a former garda commissioner, the other an alleged TV or arts critic from the Indo. The former garda at least talked a bit of sense, the Indo guy as I mentioned gave the impression he either never watched it before, or was just a total waffler.

Ooof, bit of a clunky link between the travel fella and Dunphy..... I wonder which one was pre-recorded?

Noticed that. The 'travel fella' was probably pre-recorded as he is from Ballinasloe and probably recovering from the fair there yesterday.

Glad to hear Dunphy speak about the bullshít that surrounds the Moore St traders and their perception as 'salt of the earth types'. Its a million miles from the tripe Joe Duffy would have us believe about the place.

MLOD telling us lots of things we already know about apples, in her "inimitable" style. :rolleyes:

IvyTheTerrible

And now she's talking with her mouth full, FFS, the pig.

snubbleste

I'm rather enjoying this. :cool:

She's slurping and slobbering and chewing live on air. Oh my god.

Shouldn't she be in the seanad being indispensable to democracy?

That apple farm is about a mile from my house - they also have gorgeous raspberries and strawberries in summer. Great place.

spank_inferno

Wow.... A journo on the radio telling it like it is re: travellers.

SOR has got to put a stop to this!

He took a break for this piece to allow Pavee Point on the other line to calm down before he returns to him.

He was saying that they cheated poor customers back in the day (ie cheated his family).
He also said he was fondled by a priest.

this lads unreal. you watch those programmes and see the cars they drive and (unclassy, chav) wedding dresses they wear makes their claims as poor discriminated minority a lie. if they stopd acting like scumbags and thieves they might get a bit more respect from society

artful_codger

Wow, he's really watering down the facts.

They used to put all the good fruit & veg at the front of their stall but give Eamo's family all the rotten stuff at the back, would be hilarious if somebody rang Joe complaining about getting rotten fruit from a " salt o de eart"
There would definitely be a bad line that day.

I wonder are people in the Asylum system for seven/eight years because they keep appealing their rejection for asylum. Those hostel owners are making a profit, but they don't determine the length of stay.

Considering they are supposed to be Asylum Seekers they seem to be a very demanding lot. I can't help but feel if I were an asylum seeker I'd be falling over myself with gratitude to any country that took me .. but of course that's not a PC thing to say :rolleyes:

OMG they are discussing A Tale For The Time Being & I'm in the middle of reading this fabulous book.

And if you did manage to slip through the net and get on air, Joe would probably tell you to "GET A GRIP!"

Fianna Fáil calling the FG budgets regressive... Really is hard to listen to the idiots that caused the mess giving out about the cuts that have to be made to try to sort their mess out. All those FF lads should have been summarily executed after the bailout..

Strange, the Sicilians I know drink coffee all year round!

I don't blame them. If I was running a stall, I'd give Dunphy the ****tiest stuff going too!
