Drivetime with Mary Wilson

ShamNNspace · 28-08-2020 5:31pm

What an awful phrase "wet pubs" is and they keep using it. All it brings to mind is alco's, drunk tanks and swollen livers. Iv no doubt its use on drivetime and the like is deliberate

Yeah

Big pot-bellied tankers up at the bar,opening their throats and gulling back pints like Panda emptying brown bins.

Fcukers would swallow a 330ml. bottle and all.

Big ‘Dublin Fire Brigade’ heads on them.

Del.... that’s why these handpumps just can’t get the food thing.

It keeps them anchored to a spot and highlights the fact that they can’t eat and swallow dhrink AT THE SAME TIME.

Sophisticated folk like those in most other countries can see that.

Pat wants to wave a pint in one hand and go thru a stale pizza like a fcuking road grader with the other while corking out meaty chorizo farts from the rear end.

Like it or not... there’s the truth.

Not the archetypical type.

Think Anthony Daly lookalike or 90% of bouncers who used to work the doors back in the day.

Big shaved head and a neck like the funnel of an ocean liner.

I haven't listened to the Rev. Mother (MW) for about a year or so, but that Ebun Joseph should wind her fekkin neck in now. We are all in this together or we are not. Next we'll have Pavee Point and the Roma giving out. Jaysus.

Sick of it. Will never go back to RTE, and now we have the simpering CB on in the mornings. Thank God for Pat Kenny, and whilst he is not perfect he is a professional.

LBC is good now too. Yer man James O'Brien is hit and miss and does monologues a lot, but he gets the audience going when the lights are on. That's how you do talk radio. Same with Sheelagh Fogarty in the pm too. Anything but Joe Duffy.

Sorry for the rant. But as a radio lover I know what I like now and move the dial.

Cole · 01-09-2020 7:29pm

I listened to the Ebun Joseph interview and, as usual, it was all a bit meandering and incoherent. It's not that her area of research (Black studies) isn't valid, but I reckon she's doing more damage to its credibility (and UCD) than anything else...she just doesn't know her stuff imo.

The Adele cultural appropriation/Notting Hill Carnival thing has no Irish angle, so why not interview an academic from one of the numerous universities in the UK with well established departments and research in African studies and Black history (a couple of the unis have Notting Hill on their doorstep).

It's like there some contractual obligation that RTE have to only speak to her on matters of race...and nobody else.

Bet she couldn't do a Covid Test just the same despite her Doctor status. Sure I have one of them myself, but if I dared call myself Dr. Spanish, my whole family would crease themselves laughing. It is just research and whilst interesting and enjoyable it's twenty years ago now.

Great to revert to being an idiot again since no one gives a sht.

I am grounded, and I love my mad family too.

Worryingly, I think this was posted in all seriousness.

To anyone who disagreed with Ebun Joseph, just bear in mind that she was arguing that no cultural appropriation occurred. She was the voice of reason.

The above post, with its bizarre reference to Covid testing, doesn't merit a response. I would suggest that people actually listen to the interview.

But still incoherent imo. I agree with her that it was more a case of cultural appreciation, but if she is so knowledgeable in her field (as RTE seem to think), I'd expect to hear a clearly presented argument. She was just throwing around random ideas to 'support' her argument...nothing research/evidence based. She just peppers her ideas with her 'go to' academic buzz words and it usually just results in a bit of an embarrassing (for UCD I presume) mess.

Won’t happen, effendi, Where does she operate out of....... UCD.

Where is UCD....... just up the road from Montrose.

Where does Ferreter operate out of......UCD

How long and often does he appear in Montrose

Very long and very often....more than most of ‘lifers’’

So.......:cool:....... better get used to Ebun....wouldn’t you think.

What sort of clown is MW interviewing now.

He's hard to listen too and talking in riddles and going round in circles.

Lol that was Sammy Wilson and I think Mary just cut him off in mid flow and went to an ad break.

steinbock123 · 03-09-2020 5:05pm

Sammy may be a gob **** e, but Mary spent the interview talking over him and all but shouting him down. She should have let him prattle on, he’s well versed in making a fool of himself on his own.
Very unprofessional from MW.

shes incapable of hiding her left wing politics , her disapproving tone impossible to hide

Joe_ Public · 04-09-2020 11:09am

Not defending Mary Wilson here per se, but while having the odd right wing voice on is a fair idea in terms of balance, not sure having the likes of Sammy Wilson spouting obvious gibberish is the answer either. And have a feeling, if he was let just prattle on and on without interruption, you'd have folk criticising her for that. Guess there's always a balance to be struck and it's tricky to get that right sometimes.

Brendan Bendar · 11-09-2020 5:14pm

The ‘attack dog’ Lenihan coming now with the gloom and doom tone of voice.

The deep breaths and the totally negative output should really make RTE consider advising him to change his delivery style

You're not a fan BB.:D

Noel Anderson (lemon and duke pub, dublin) must have some friends in rte the amount of time he is on it.
There should be business people on NPHET was his invaluable contribution.

I understand it is a shocking time for the hospitality industry.

Correct I, heard him.

All he wants is the pubs opened, in my opinion he wouldn’t care if a few hundred people caught the virus and died.

Where would Noel be......nowhere to be found is the probable answer.

Lot of that around. Out sector needs special treatment, we're the exception, we'll have what them'uns are having with a cherry on top, stealing the bread out our children's mouths, so they are.

And as soon as the pubs are opened on the basis of being 'controlled' environments, they bleating will start about how it's not their fault they can't force drunk people to socially distance.

Advice...... wear a fcuking mask in confined spaces

Reaction .... not wearing a mask in a confined spaces.

Then blame the government

Yep Cole, but when the State Broadcaster broadcaster seems to be exulting in the bad C 19 news it’s hard to blame them.

Both Lenihan and Hayes had froth on their chins horsing out the bad news.

I reckon if we examined Cullinane ,Nash , and Smith on the rules around de ‘dissabillithy’ they would be word perfect in an eminently more complex arena than ‘wear your face mask’

Uhmmmmm m........

Bryan Dobson starts off Morning Ireland today with "chaos and confusion"...not that opposition politicians have said this or claims/reports of this, but almost like it's fact.

I wouldn't expect anything less of Cullinane, Nash and Smith but I would blame some of the other politicians who are feeding the twats who just want an excuse to flout the rules.

And I would question the public service broadcaster for pumping out those generalisations and broad brush accusations.

You are correct on some of the other politicians.

The Attack Dog Lenihan the ‘Doomsday Dog‘ is up and running and out of the traps like a greyhound.

The funerial voice, the heavy breathing, the tone of impending disaster, the monotone presentation style like the siren at Dublin Airport, or the old air raid sirens in the blitz.

The Prophet of Doom is wooding up it would seem as he ups the ante with seemingly severe relish.

No point in doing anything, we are beat ...the ‘DoomsdayDog ‘ has thrown the blanket of doom all over the country, all fuherked.

Boucher filleting Chambers with complete bias and unfortunately Chambers being ridden ragged.

No balance ....everything is the Govts. fault .. the public have no input at all , nothing to do with us, all to do with the those trying to manage the situation.

Getting to Joe Jacob territory.

Not good when there is no balance and that all the issues have nothing to do with the behaviour of the general public.

What the fcukk is the value of the discussion in the circumstance and the serious situation is in other than to fillet Chambers who is proving he may not be fit for the job.

Drivetime with Mary Wilson
