    Overheard on the radio this morning, may not be an exact transcript:

    "There's my cousin over there! Hello Mary !! Mary I hope you've a great Christmas...I know its going to be tough for you this year. and I'm thinking about you and your family.....you're in my thoughts"

    Grand...leave it there Ryan. No need to go any further...

    "I know its been a rough few weeks Mary but your mother was a wonderful woman, a lovely kind person and Im sure you're going to miss her greatly. I'll talk you after anyway"

    He actually stopped and then went again...squeezing every last drop of misery out of it. :rolleyes:

    But that's the word for this week Joe, wouldn't the word be much better if there were a little more kindness. Like the way that the State gives Tubridy 400k when people are sleeping on trolleys. That's kindness in Ireland 2019

    Phoebe Waller-Bridge is a good interviewee. There’s always a suppressed laugh in her voice (if you know what I mean)

    Talking about creeping around a hospice:
    "I dont want to bring the show down or anything" - lie! Yes you do!

    "Sometimes I forget how what people are going through" - lie! It's all you ever talk about!

    Is this the lad who told Ryan to give the 250 for the false teeth to the SVP?

    That's all well and good, but the way I heard the story it's almost as if Ryan is saying he have the 250 away, when in reality it would have been the near bankrupt rte who would be covering the cost of the false teeth.

    We often hear the likes of Tubs, Joe Duffy and Darcy are worth their massive salaries because they bring in massive advertising revenue.

    I heard Ryan's show yesterday in the car. The first break had 3 adverts.
    1st for the licence fee
    2nd for the undertaker show on rte
    3rd for the Sean O'Rourke show.

    Yeah that break was worthwhile for raising money for rte!

    Liveline is broadly similar with a few more RTE orchestra ads thrown in and the occasional car add. I think liveline is sponsored now so at least that must off set some of the wages.

    The only reason there's so many car ads at the moment is because the 2020 rush is coming.

    Good call. I noticed there was some show sponsored by one brand and then having another brand advertising during the break.

    It stands out in my mind as it is so far from being able to even dream about buying a new car I am with the rent situation in Dublin it resonated that what was once a possibly reasonable aspiration has become fairytale stuff now so hearing so many ads was noticable!

    If I had the price of a new car I'd buy two second hand ones.

    Kind or kindness were words that never cast me a thought. Now when I hear him and Ellen constantly use these words I have came to detest them.

    "Did you ever see people crying in their cars and you wonder are they happy tears or sad tears".

    The misery radar turned up to the max, 24/7.

    (P.S. They're probably listening to Joe Duffy).

    The amount of people in this country who listen to the radio with tears streaming down their face or else dancing around the kitchen makes it seem like we are a nation of joaquin phoenix's joker.
