    I still listen every day and enjoy the show. You know what you're getting with Anton. A polished presenter with a positive outlook on life who does his research properly. Vastly different than the last fella with his boring stories, lectures and general miserable attitude (most of the time).

    Anyone is better than Ray D'Arcy in fairness

    Least he doesn't prattle on about his wife/family


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,832 ✭✭✭heldel00


    Is he even married or does he have kids? Have never ever heard him mention either which his predecessor made a living out of!

    I came across Ryan Tubridy's interview with David McGowan of Plane Sailing fame. The difference between Anton's interviews with him and Tubridy's are like night and day. Ryan didn't seem all that interested in what he had to say and kept interrupting the man while he was trying to tell his story :(

    Ryans only interested if its something to do with JFK

    Tuned in today for the first time in ages as Pat is having a lie-in.

    Jesus, these anti-vaccers are headcases.

    I dunno, I think both have legitimate concerns tbh, I don't like those ones that have been rushed through the system and humans end up being guinea pigs as there hasn't been enough time for proper trials etc

    This is a really serious issue and fair play to the woman for talking about it but it's too much for me I'm afraid.

    Yep, I had to switch it off. Too hard to listen to.

    That bit with Bosco was brutal

    When did bosco turn into such a manic depressive misery balls.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,009 ✭✭✭✭wnolan1992


    Was coming on to say the same thing. That Bosco piece was pure cringe. Could they not have got someone involved in RTE Jr. on or something. Or hell, even get Ian Dempsey on the phone to give the perspective of someone who presented one of the most iconic kids TV shows in Ireland.

    This whole treating puppets as if they're real people with political views needs to stop lads.

    How many books and DVDs can you get out of eating healthy?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,379 ✭✭✭toadfly


    These two from Don't Tell The Bride are pure doses, if there were ever a reason not to watch a show those two are it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,452 ✭✭✭sonic85


    Today's show overall has been poor


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 979 ✭✭✭Michael Weston


    I don't get the Damien Dempsey thing at all, he sounds like a drunk singing at a house party!! This Aunt Jenny song sounds like Mario Rosenstock singing in character as Roy Keane.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,696 ✭✭✭flangemeistro


    Damo Dempsey = instant channel changer. He sounds like Kenny Egan found a guitar in a hotel residents bar. Awful tripe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,361 ✭✭✭RubyK


    This Eanna (sp) one, the nature expert, is a right snippy condescending pain in the arse. I don't know how Anton puts up with her.
