    I thought I'd create this thread for Adrian Kennedy's new show which is going to be a podcast.

    Any word on when it will be available as a podcast? Facebook only at the moment is fairly useless.

    Myself and the wife will def be listening.

    Podcast has been live a while now. Enjoying it so far. Reminds me of the FM104 phoneshow days.

    Their YouTube channel 'Opinions Matter' hasn't had a video show posted for over a month now - is it kaput?

    Also, can't find their podcast on my podcast app.

    Should be there now. They just reskinned their old Dublin talks podcast channel.

    It does, but ironically it has more unabashed cursing than the Phoneshow ever had. No more "mind the language!" out of Adrian. Jeremy seems to have mellowed a lot though.

    Does anyone still listen to this podcast? The woman Adrian has co-presenting the show with him now is absolutely terrible. She's fairly immature and very unprofessional, what with her constantly interrupting Kennedy and callers, ordering them to "hang on!" It really grinds my gears. Kennedy was always better doing the more 'serious' discussions on his own, he knows how to structure a conversation. At least Jeremy is quick witted, this woman on the other hand....

    Yeah Katie. She started out as the call taker and is now a producer I think. She runs their Facebook page too. She is not a very good presenter, she should stick to the work she does behind the scenes which I'm sure is important.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 132 ✭✭The_Dark_Lord


    I've noticed this too, the constant interrupting of callers is very annoying and just makes the show seem sloppy and amateurish. She does not sound like a professional broadcaster. When a new episode is released, I now skip forward a few minutes to hear who is presenting and if she's on it, I don't download the podcast.

    Just listening to an episode at the moment about people posting pictures of their deceased babies on Facebook.

    Katie is far too opinionated for someone who has no experience of the topic. Not a good presenter and I genuinely thought she was one of the callers.

    She’s trying too hard to be the “controversial” presenter when Jeremy isn’t around.

    Speaking of which Jeremy is on this less and less other commitments taking over?

    This pair is getting worse and worse. Its not even funny it's predictable and tedious.

    The Old couple that texts in after every conversation about sex. So obviously one of them or their crew.
