Me Weekly Column, by me, Joe Duffy so to speak.
Anudder week, anudder €8,500 in de fees says I for just over de 6 hours dis weeks (includin' de breakeens)....not including the readies I duz get for dis, me weekly column says I so to speak. But as I always say 'who am I ta say wat a nurse shood be payed and dat?".
I found out dat I have a new celebrity listener dis week so to speak? "What Joe?" says you "anudder wan? Ta go with de long list dat includes de Graym Norten?". Yes, says I so to speak. Wait 'til yisser all heer dis. Wan a me favourit shows on de telly is Ray Donovan. I was watchin' it havin' a take away from Rick Stein's restyront. I got it on justeat.co.uk. De delivery ta Colontarf was £2,000STG but wit sterlin' de way it is right now that's peanuts ta a man like meself so to speak. Anyway, de show and dat....so Ray is a fixer for de posh peeplez and dat in LA - dat's Los Angeles to youz so to speak. Only peeple in de biz can call it LA so I'm allowed but don't youz be usin' it now, says I. Anyway, de reason I like Ray so much is dat I'm kinda simmylar really in dat I'm always doin' de helpin' of de peeple - de fixin' so to speak - but unlike Ray who's really a bully and a thug underneet it all I use me speech and power and dat to persuade de peeplez to do whor I want and dat. Ray is played by Leaf Something or Udder but he's not me fan. No, it's his da, Mickey. Mickey is played by Jon Voight who was in De General movie and is Angela Jolly's da so to speak.
Well Mickey said "so to speak" on de show so yisser all know wat dat means? He's a fan. I mean where else wood he have hurded dat expression? Artists like meself and himself like ta give each udder da nod and dat as ack-nollid-jememt of de fact dat dare brillunt. It was clearly a wink at me, Just Joe, so to speak. It won't be long now until me & Mrs. Duffy will be going ta Angela Jolly's next weddin' in Murica, and we'll e hob nobbin' wit de hob nobs den so to speak. As for how I'll nod back ta Jon yet, I don't know....maybe I'll ask Brindin ta give him a role in the next moovie - a small part now mind youz, wouldn't want him tinkin' he's more important dan yours truly - but sometin' ta show him I noticed as he could do with a leg up so to speak in de auld actin' game.
Ta dose of youz dat waited patiently for de return of de death and misery and dat ta show......did I reward yissers all or wha? Peeple tink it's easy mannin' de phones like I do but I tell ya ya have to keep on yisser game and be constantlee innovatin' and cumin' up wit new ways ta make de callers cry tell dare story. It's not as easy as it looks loorin' peeple on ta show so to speak ta talk about phone numbers and den probin' dare vulnerabilities lahv on de air for me own perverse pleasure ta see how quickly I can get de tears....it takes skill so to speak. I've often said it ta Noel "dare me be better broadcasters out dare dan me Noel, but no-one can get tears quicker, no matter wat de subject so to speak". It takes a certain kind a person to take advantage of peeple's pain for dare own gain like I do, and I'm brillunt at it. I've good news for all you death enthusiasts too, dares plenty more of it cumin' at ya dis week!
Back ta helpin' de peeples. Well yisser no I help de rich as well as de poor so to speak. Pat Hickey certainly isn't poor and I helped him a lot - I better get on de OCI Comm-mitt-tee after all de trojan wurk I did for him earlier dis year. He'll probably want me ta be his solicitor when de case goes ta trial and I can destroy de Rio Garda in de cross examination again like I did on de air. I'll wear me Matlock suit for dat:
Anyways says I, I just hearded om Friday dat was a me tree producers is off doing a nixer for a few months and dat. As a true impartial and professional broadcaster so to speak I'd never break advertisin' or ethical rules abour de conflict of interests in de biznizz so I didn't read out at length all of de dates and engage in a long monologue about de pet hobby latest venture of de wunderful, fantastic multi-talented person dat is Fungus McInally and his latest "show" so to speak. Of course I did, sure who's going to stop me says I so to speak? So I talked abour it on de show, put pics up abour it on de show's twitter (and Fungus did the same on his) and gave away "free" tickets ta da show as well. And it won't be de last toyme I'll do it! Try and stop me says I! Wan a de many perks of wurkin' in de RTE is dat yisser can take all de toyme ye want off yer job, go off and do udder stuff for which you also get de payed, have de RTE promote your nixer for free pro grattis so to speak, and den waltz back into yer old job whenever ya want it so to speak - just like de private sector so to speak. Connoly and Larkin would love it says I. I also said de show was stunning and superb, even dough I haven't seen it, but sure what harm is dare in takin' monies off de old peeple dat'll go to see dis vanity project so to speak? It's not like it's an inshurdance policy is it? Anway, in de show Fungusis playin' tribute ta Christie Hennessey so to speak. He's joined on stage by Harmonnee Hermyonnee Hurmeeonynee Christy's dawturr too. Christy is wan a me favourite artists - he's up dare with Coldplay, Bob Dylan, de Swedish House Mafia and of course de wunderful, fantastic You Too.
Anywayz, I have ta go, de Bollinger '57 is almost reaching room temperature now. 'Til necxt week, keep de faith.0 -
