    No love lost. Part of it stems back to her cat fights with Eoghan Murphy in the constituency. She called him and others Leo’s choir boys

    I know all that, but I’m still surprised. There’s obviously trouble brewing for Leo within the FG ranks.

    It’s Kate O’Connell, not Madigan.

    I wondered how she got back in again. Kate Madigan didn't sound right. Ha ha.

    Corrigan broadcasting all the details of his businesses

    Why am I picturing him in the studio with a brandy and port by his side

    Edit: BOC nearly had a heart attack when he started naming names and all but cut his microphone off

    And a big scarf wrapped around his neck and the sweat falling off him.

    Kate O Connell just saying what everyone knows ,Leo is in trouble and his 'the leak' reputation is not doing him or FG any good.

    Aoife McLysaght explained the situation very well there re Covid despite BOC constant interruptions.

    Kate O Connell has been a constantly good contributor on shows since she lost her seat.

    If the DPP goes ahead with a prosecution, his position will be untenable.

    I hate Varadkar's politics, but it does seem a very strange (or petty) way to bring him down. I don't care about Leo getting arrested, I'd rather his politics were stigmatised and rejected instead; unfortunately, his politics will survive when he is forgotten.

    It wasn’t very interesting - basically, corrigan has issues with his landlords in london.

    He was going to get into details before BOC rudely interrupted...

    If it does go ahead you’d have to wonder will there be investigations into other political “leaks” or will this stop them altogether.

    Brendan did point out the irony of there being leaks coming from the investigation already.

    Brendan was trying to play the sure all politicians leak and it's part of the game. Kate O Connell was having none of it and brought the focus back to the leaking of the original document.

    BOC then tried to play the 'it's unfair on Leo being last to be interviewed ' card and again Kate corrected him with that's standard practice.

    Don't think we heard from Kate in the last 15 minutes? , it got very tetchy between BOC and Corrigan after he corrected BOCS commentary with the 'I live there (London ) , I KNOW what's going on there' retort.
    The last few minutes was basically BOC and his independent stable mate Kevin Doyle with a few barbed comments aimed at Richard.

    BOC not doing himself any favours with this carry on.

    What was the name of the Netflix series mentioned on today's show that the guest "mumbled". It sounded like RoadTrip or Road Jo. About some "call girls" on the run from their pimps.

    Thanks. I watched the first two episodes. It was O.K. Each episode only about 25 mins in length.

    GE would be the furthest thing from woke there is-and for once that's not a good thing.

    I'll leave it at that-sitting his fat arse on a dead horse is the least of his sins.
