Darcy is not happy with the pub situation:)

Good man Brian should have mentioned the wage too.

According to Tommy Tiernan, Sand rabbit = gormless fool of an easily led young fella

Why did he say this to D'Arcy?

I like Tommy Tiernan. He is in many ways the Anti-Ray

if the reaction of Ray D’Arcy (RTÉ Radio 1, weekdays) is anything to go by. Even as the politics of 2019 and the pandemic of 2020 turn the week into a real-life Venn diagram of nightmarish woes, the presenter shrugs in apathy. “Do you ever get those ‘nyeh’ days? I’m having a ‘nyeh’ day,” says D’Arcy, without defining what he’s talking about, though it’s probably what Americans would call a “meh” day. “I’ve nothing to complain about at all,” he adds, ascribing his demeanour to “the weather, the evenings closing in, Monday, all that sort of stuff”.

D’Arcy’s frank admission could be seen as an instinctive everyman touch – who doesn’t struggle to find their mojo, even during the most dramatic of times? Equally, it’s not a good look when a high-profile broadcaster can’t be bothered to hide his lethargy as he does his well-remunerated job. But it’s symptomatic of the aimless and indeed listless atmosphere that often pervades D’Arcy’s afternoon slot.

Thats a well deserved burn right there. He's not gonna like that.

Ray having a good sneer at the government when he couldn't organise a pi$$ up in a brewery himself.
