Sean O'Rourke Today Show

RTE won't be happy with Royston changing from Democrat to Republican. One of the researchers is going to get a right telling off for not finding that out before issuing the invitation.

Great to have SOR back though.

Wondered why we ever had to hear from that guy anymore now that he's not involved in Irish politics.

I never found his comments that insightful, and the fact that he's now become a US Republican only confirms what I thought.

Seems fairly wide and rough speculation about how much TDs are making from rentals.

And a minority of TDs are doing it.

She hastily contacted the SoR show to inform them that she had 'disposed' (her word) of her rental properties

Such a sad interview with Charlie Redmond, Sean handled it very well. So young to go like that.

I just heard Vicky Pollard being interviewed on the radio.

Rick O'Shea currently discussing books, while over on RTE Gold his show is on robo-jock with pre-recorded links !!
I like Rick but he has a fairly cushy permanent job on RTE.

Talking about his wife Grainne, who he lost at a tragically young age. Hard to listen to.

Any chance if we have to source medicines from non-english speaking countries we might get them at the price non-English speaking countries prices ... no, didn't think so

Maybe one of the most emotional interviews I've heard this year. Can well understand why it was pre-recorded, can't understand how O'Rourke held it together.

Real 'stay sitting in the car' radio.

Ireland does misery porn so well .

Joe Duffy has made a career out of it .

The chap who was just on from the farm strike was the slipperiest speaker I've ever heard. Could hear Sean getting frustrated at his lack of clarity.

I'd say he is just a regular guy who has found himself nominated as spokesperson and has not been coached by the usual PR/Communications skills operators.

Funny how it used to be the best speakers who got the job as spokespeople, now it's the very opposite. Say as much as possible without saying anything.

I'm a regular guy, I'm capable of answering direct questions. I might stutter or be nervous on the radio but not to the extent of avoiding questions at every turn.

David Horgan, MD of Petrel Resources on RTE again.

A man who makes his money from fossil fuels talking about the "Green Industrial Complex".

Puke.

Sounds like he'll be right at home in the "Greta's Gonna Steal Muh Diesel SUV" circlejerk elsewhere on Boards.

Racist old xenophobe caught out on his Ireland 'flooded' by refugees claims.

They could move all his homeless friends into his parish, as long as they are white.
