The shower of cults that are the Palmarians and Joe Duffy's total obsession with them.
This is their pope and his new bride, both of whom will be stripping off for some magazine this weekend.

Driving in the armageddon that will be Dublin tomorrow, Joe sounds angry already.

And some intelligible garble about dangerous buses at the end...(serious WTF moment there)

He got very stuttery near the end there. He hadn't a clue what he was trying to say.

Unbeknownst to anyone, the preservative mothballs were a particularly poisonous variety, long since banned, and the fumes from them affected the KK players in subtle and mysterious ways, causing them to miss balls, footing, and the cup.

I don't think any trick like that will help Mayo. They are still one funeral away from winning the All-Ireland. All the Dubs have to do over the next week and a half is forget training and keep an eye on the death notices.

Dublin Bus
Dashcams, what do you do if a bus is driving dodge, who do you complain to so to speak...Joe of course.

You don't complain to anyone. You just wait until the bus driver is close enough to hear you and then shout "Scab!"

I'm not sure that somebody who can run faster than 99.999% of able bodied people should qualify for the paralympics. I think what Jason Smith has going is that very irish thing... a racket.

TheHomeService · 07-09-2016 01:43PM

Right, how will Joe begin the programme?

"Condolences, Maura. It happened in 1956 ....",

Isn't it his lack of sight that qualifies him for the Paralympics ?

somesoldiers · 07-09-2016 01:46PM

Good start!

I've never seen him cross lanes.

Whoy caller does a young man have to get up? What about her fellow women?

somesoldiers · 07-09-2016 01:46PM

They have badges in London- I am Preggers, innit

Atlantic Dawn · 07-09-2016 01:47PM

How does she know the lads didn't have heart conditions or were ill?

Flukey · 07-09-2016 01:47PM

Did she get on at Clontarf?

Oh get up the f**king yard, if they did offer the seat the woman probably would have taken offence at them offering the seat because she's a woman.

As a man, you just can't win these days.

2smiggy · 07-09-2016 01:47PM

era feck off you old bag !!

perhaps your daughter should just move to London

TheHomeService · 07-09-2016 01:47PM

I know a man who got abused by a "lady" for offering her his seat on a bus.

Atlantic Dawn · 07-09-2016 01:48PM

How topical, the DART on a day before the bus strikes, Liveline the pulse of Ireland so to speak.

somesoldiers · 07-09-2016 01:48PM

I used to have a huge gripe with public transport, feckers taking up two seats etc

My solution: I now get the 650am train- lovely comfort, always get a table to myself!

PathMatcher · 07-09-2016 01:48PM

Did Joe just say "Dort" with a D4 accent?

Itssoeasy · 07-09-2016 01:48PM

I live by the logic of I'll stand for the national anthem and pregnant women on public transport.

Living Off The Splash · 07-09-2016 01:48PM
