    Lost dat feckin recording :(
    BOC said fück in front of little chiselers. Fungus was shoo-ing a tiny little lady with special needs and threatened security on her because she was calling his name harmlessly and giggling.

    Just swung by to see if this rubbish is still going. Honestly, the worst radio I have ever heard. I'm probably too sensitive when it comes to animals but I thought that 'song' about Fungie was in poor taste.

    Caught of bit of the Fungi thing. There should be law against foisting that tripe on people. Unbelievably bad.

    So I made the right choice giving up after 15 minutes lol.
    What a load of nonsense....caller lead my @rse.

    I think Joe needs to be sent out to pasture at this stage, bring back Katie!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    I only heard part of it but I feel comfortable saying it was the worst FunnyFryday ever - which in itself says something.

    And considering the amount of guests they had on it I assure you that would not have been a programmer made “4 cheap” so to speak as they say.

    RTÉ you are an embarrassment to this country, Dee 4bes you are a thundering disgrace.


  • Posts: 4,238 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I caught the last few minutes after bring out for a walk on a beautiful afternoon. I honestly have never heard such utter crap as this. The “impression” of Al Pacino was appallingly bad. The song about Fungi was a new nadir for lyrics.

    Surely, Dee must never listen to the output of Radio 1. If she did, she’d have to do something about it. Joe presumably knows all the contributors, so it’s jobs for the boys all round.

    How on earth do they get away with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 212 ✭✭XLR 8


    Possibly the worst şhīťē I have ever heard in my life. It's the complete opposite of funny. Please somebody in authority in RTE cancel this nonsense. Let Joe try his luck broadcasting this tripe on another station with out taxpayers money to subsidise the laughter.

    Truly shocking stuff today. Purely for Mr Duffy's enjoyment, it would appear.

    My TV licence is up this month - sickens me to pay it.

    FunnyFryday is always a jolly for Mr. Duffy and his chums. It’s not unknown for them to go down a few nights early to whatever hotel is hosting them or stay for the bank holiday weekend when they land on such occasions. You can be sure they’re fed and watered and not paying for it themselves as well as submitting mileage to RTE. Mr. Duffy would often decant to Cork on Monday for a FunnyFryday - I’m not making that up!

    Even when it was in Arklow - a 45minute drive from the south side of Dublin - they went down at least the night before, if not more.

    Fungus posted clips on his Twitter account once of them all at a sing song in the hotel bar the night before (might even have been 2 nights before) FunnyFryday itself.

    Christ knows what invoices these giants of comedy submit for the day. And you can bet your hole they’re not submitting for 75mins wurk; there’s prep time (material like that doesn’t write itself), rehearsals (lol), travel etc. All paid for by you and me.

    And set that against the many many genuine performers and artists in the country sittin around wonderin where the next few euros are coming from to pay the mortgage, rent etc.. We're all in this together

    Missed all of this nonsense so im happy. Might listen to yesterdays again tonight while out with the dog, get a bit of a laugh again

    Guess no point listening back going by the last few pages, was Joe trying to forget yesterday

    Did anyone brave the whole 75mins?

    Any racist or unwoke comments/"jokes" we could complain about? Hard to make a complaint on it just being awful as they'll just say comedy is subjective and you're a snob for not getting the "comedy" (a la Mrs. Browinz Boyiz and dat).

    I heard that alright. Tubs is the Boy-Man to Mr. Duffy's manchild.

    PLEASE listen to this GOLD podcast at abt 0:38

    https://www.rte.ie/radio/radioplayer/html5/#/radio1/21312923

    It is VERSATIS GOLD. With a bit of research I dug this nugget up from de archive, de argument between my former GP, Dr Michael O'Tighearnaigh and Duffy over de patches. By coincidence I had an appointment with Michael a couple of days later at the surgery, and showed him de responses in de thread, and he raised his hands high and thumped his fists together!

    Crazy unbelievable stuff. What a whiff of entitlement. Would make you wonder about paying the license fee.

    Was catching up on yestersays show and laughing out loud at Joe squirming. Laughing just as much reading along with the comments here. Was going to listen to todays but think I will skip that .. to protect my mental health as they say, so to speak.

    Just being nosey now but wonder if you can let some of us relatively new posters how or why you are in the Liveline bad books? Other posters hint at it but no idea what happened.

    I understand if is sub juddiccee as they say so to speak or it causes too much pain or misery to relive what befell you. If you can talk anout it feel free to express it through the medium of a suitable pome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,001 ✭✭✭glenfieldman

    Was in the car today listening to the shyte ads for the whine line today. They featured Duffy talking down to the padre. They gave the impression that Duffy was socking it to the padre,this couldn't be any further from the truth. He's a charlatan.!!!.A snake oil salesman

    That was unbelievably terrible. I listened until “Oliver Bond” came on. I don’t know how many times I have heard that routine before. Living proof that the old ones are not the best ones.
    Had to bale out when the Duffster kept interrupting and talking over poor “Oliver”, whose dead horse has been flogged nearly back to life at this stage.
    Comic timing at its worst from Claddagh Greens finest.
