    It was hilarious.

    "Do you work John?"

    John: "I have a part-time job".

    "He has his hands in his pockets all the time, he must have the warmest balls in Cork."

    I nearly wet myself when I heard the other caller said that.

    Thanks for posting, Mikeym, I decided to listen to the podcast after reading your post. It was absolutely priceless! They certainly don't mince their words in Cork :D

    One thing shocked me though, that John has the time for a part-time job, I wonder is it media work? ;)

    We slag off John O'Donovan but to be fair to the man, he puts in more hours on the radio every week than Marian Finucane :D

    Funniest comment I've heard this weekðŸ˜

    The man really needs to get a job, he clearly has way to much time on his hands.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,477 ✭✭✭ofcork


    I'm sure he is on the front page of today's echo in the high viz and few quotes from him inside.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,822 ✭✭✭liam7831


    John on now about his expertise on Drink Driving, as usual plenty time on his hands ...,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,713 ✭✭✭✭rob316


    On Niall Boylan about irish water yesterday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 58 ✭✭Howard100


    Classic example of lad who get's a pinch of attention - get's addicted to the ' Heard you on the radio' attention & keeps going back to get more attention.

    He could be a lonely lad, radio his only companion.

    He's keeping the likes of Niall Boylan in a job, though.

    He's on claiming that drivers testing positive for alcohol consumption should be banned for life..quite strident about that...then admits that he was sent on his way after being caught in the past for drink driving...seems a tad hypocritical....maybe we should protest outside his house,as he likes doing, demanding that he surrender his licence .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,822 ✭✭✭liam7831


    He's on 4FM now talking out speeding fines prob don't even have a car


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,540 ✭✭✭✭2smiggy


    well 4fm seems fairly desperate for anyone to call in, so suits John...

    maybe he has one. not everyone works 9 to 5 or works long hours.

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    He doesn't, he's claiming disability, pity someone doesn't pay him to disable his mouth :)

    He did say himself to Joe Duffy about a year ago that he was on the dole since Christmas 2007:D

    what is his 'disability' ? The social welfare should be having a good hard look at his case. He seems to be well able to get around to all these protests anyway

    It's a fear of work that's his main disability
