I'm not a GAA fan, but I accept lots of people are and I expect lots of pods I'll have no interest in will come out at this time of year. I think sneering replies to people and constant moaning about literally everything just. But you wouldn't do that, would you? Lets see your last 10 posts in this thread: Oh dear. A little ray of sunshine, aren't we? Go on, call me a "fanboy". Even though you can check my post history, Idon't like a lot of episodes, but give credit to where credit is due. The irony is, you love to criticise the podcast constantly. But if anyone criticises your posts and disagree with something you say it's you resort to name calling or insults, they're a "fanboy".

I don't really have time to engage in such activity, interesting and important as is it, so I'll have to take you at your word. For me, this podcast promised a lot and has consistently failed to deliver. Instead of independent cutting edge journalism we have journal.ie and joe.ie. Ken and Murph seem to have become parodies of themselves, JuniorB stories, amateur psychology and reading instagram posts grow old quickly. Eoin's interviewing skills amount to little more than an eulogy. He may be a step up from Ger Gilroy, which is probably why I've listened for so long. Reality is they may have had a jump start on everyone else but there are several alternatives out there now. Their peak was at the Irish Times. Seemed to have reasonable editorial freedom, not too many podcasts per week and more importantly every new subscriber wasn't worth an extra €5 per month which has been the biggest factor in the dumbing down of the podcast. That and the inability to attract decent contributors which isn't a big surprise. Good luck to them, I've had the pleasure of their company for probably 10 years but don't even bother listen to most of the podcasts now, especially if I see Sinead O'Caroll, Trump, American Murph, 4chan, Shane Horgan, Sharon Horgan, Simon Horgan, politics, Dublin, Hockey or "Exclusive Interview" in the description. In the words of Cosmo Kramer, I'm OUT! P.S. You are the ultimate fanboy. May Cienciano, Eoin, Ken and Murph surf the wave of patreon subscribers deep into the Average Ocean. At least three of you will be getting well paid to do so.
