    Once in a generation/lifetime talents, you gotta wonder who's coming through as the old school either call it a day, or sadly shuffle off this mortal coil.

    Surely there's got to be some diamonds in the rough waiting to be discovered. Then again, radio is a different beast these days compared to when Gaybo, Marion & Larry were in their prime.

    started this thread in Rock & Metal and it might be of interest to some here. Memories of the golden days of music channels like Kerrang, Scuzz, MTV2 etc

    I'm trying to get my head around shares and stuff. Just for some fun, nothing serious.

    And since WWE's stock dropped 25% last night, but Mania season is coming, I thought "**** it, why not". I don't really know a lot about stock, and I'm only playing round with €90.

    But long story short, I now own a part of WWE :P I don't expect to make much (hell, I could make a loss) but I find it hilarious I know am a very, very, very, very small part-owner of the company I've followed for 25 years :D

    Would he not be Vince's boss? As far as my knowledge goes, isn't he's held accountable/held to account by stockholders/his board of directors.

    I've been offered corp box seats at an XFL game in Seattle in two weeks. Never been a fan of the stop/start nature of American football but might give it a go. Moving in just over a week, apartment sorted right next to the Space Needle so I'm super excited :D Tonnes to sort before then though!

    When you're at a live game, it goes much faster, and they have stuff with mascots and cheerleaders, the 3 hours fly by, unless the game is ****e.......

    Odd TV question maybe someone here can help me

    So I have Netflix, Eir sport, Amazon (they're through phone bill), and will be adding Disney + to the list is phone and chromecast the best option?

    A firestick would probably be a better option, it has Internal memory instead of casting, plus you can add a vpn for iplayer, us netflix etc. Should be around the same price as a chromecast as well.

    Apparently Sky have reached an agreement with Disney to have a Disney + app on their Sky Q boxes also, so if you have that service, it would be available there too.

    I can only get virgin to the house I'm in. I've been waiting 18+ months for Eir to upgrade the line so I could try and use sky or Eir but I'm stuck in that sense

    Feel guilty for saying it but I'm actually doing really well. Started a dream job just before the the middle of last month and have been told in no uncertain terms that we're essential to the healthcare sector. Really busy but so lucky to be working. Loved ones all good so far and everybody doing their best to stay healthy (bar lots of boozing).

    Hope you're going well Lough!
