Late Late Show 12th March 2016

Say Your Number

It's hard to find information for whose on tonight, but George Hook is supposed to be on to say something that will apparently "shock" us.

Think Hozier has been confirmed also and music will come from Aoife Scott.

*add pups and kittens etc*

Ol' Donie

Reginald D Hunter is on.

Which should be good.

He's awkward with the best of interviewers, so it'll be interesting to say the least.

Hozier will be in studio to chat about his global success, what the last two years have been like and what’s next as he prepares for that difficult second album. And we’ll have his biggest fans in studio to get answers to the questions they’ve always been dying to ask.

In the week that specialists at Tallaght Hospital identified injuries in teenage players normally associated with violent trauma, The Late Late Show will be hearing from rugby pundit George Hook on his own concerns about the effect of rugby becoming an increasingly higher impact game.

As he finds himself embroiled in controversy around his views on concussion in the game and Ireland out-half Johnny Sexton, Hook will be giving his very frank views on how extensive the problem really is and telling viewers why he believes the rugby authorities are sticking their heads in the sand rather than confronting it.

As much-loved veteran radio reporter Valerie Cox retires, she joins Ryan to talk about her stellar career and how a recent visit to the Greek island of Kos to cover the refugee crisis for a television documentary shook her to her core and convinced her that Ireland is shirking its responsibilities.

We’ll be hearing from Simon Weston who became an iconic symbol of the terrible impact of war when he suffered severe burns to his face after his ship was bombed during the Falklands War. Funnyman Reginald D Hunter will talk about making it big as a US stand-up on this side of the Atlantic. Plus music from Little Green Cars.

Any word on whether George's wife will be accompanying him to perform another public castration?

Excellent article by Paul Healy of the Roscommon People on the LLS in yesterday's paper. Sounds familiar to a lot of posters here.

May I take this opportunity to thank you, the Irish public, for nominating me to be the next and first Welsh 'Tea-Shook' (I think that's how you spell it).

It came as some surprise, I tells ya

Couldn't get to see him here last year. All sold out. Flew herself to brussels Jan 2015 to catch him live at the AB. Unreal live.

sudzs

Something very Raglan Road about that tune.

PeterTheEighth

Oh ffs, ABUSE to start off the light entertainment.

PeterTheEighth

"Domestic abuse was highlighted again with Michael D in the Aras today".

Ah jaysus, Sabina didnt hit him again did she?

Say Your Number

Hozier is the spit of Ryan O'Keefe from Airbourne

Ally Dick

Spotify pay very little per song, but I worked out that with the huge number of streams of Take Me To Church, he must have earned in the region of €3 million off that song alone ! e.g. 510 million streams at $0.06 a stream.....

Autosport

Hozier does the misery slot

Welsh Megaman

''Domestic violence, domestic abuse...''

*record scratches*

My piñata just walked out of my house party all by itself.

thunderdog

I much prefer hozier on his own rather than in the full band

Bonus post: played with hozier 5 years ago. Needless to say I'm equally as successful as he is

Hooked

Did he just wink at me!!!

Ally Dick

Yuk. Gothic Lady has a question

PeterTheEighth

Is this Tubridy trying to do Mean Tweets, obviously without the balls to upset any of the guests?
