Excellent.

Tommy Tiernan is a great interviewer. He doesn’t say a lot, just asks his question and lets the person answer in full, uninterrupted.

mr.anonymous · 03-04-2021 09:52PM

I'd say that Tommy's self awareness (how he had the seeds sown for stand up) is what enables him to get to people's stories so well.

SeaFields · 03-04-2021 09:53PM

That was interesting. A far more intellectual guy that I would have thought (my bias for always associating him with Dougal!).

Fine Cheers · 03-04-2021 09:54PM

Really enjoyed that chat with Ardal. Seems a nice down to earth chap. His privileged upbringing doesn't come across at all.

kippy · 03-04-2021 09:55PM

Been to a couple of his gigs and heard him interviewed a few times. Interesting fella and we'll able.

2 good Father Ted episodes on later on More 4, the Father Stone and Passion Of St Tibulus episodes.

Responsible job!

This is scary stuff.

03-04-2021 09:59PM

An unusual choice for a guest but very interesting.

Beechwoodspark · 03-04-2021 10:00PM

This man knows his stuff.

Tommy looks freaked out by the whole topic

Cushtie · 03-04-2021 10:00PM

Deep.

Dr. Peter Fenwick is amazing to listen to on conciousness and death. An elderly scholar.

jojofizzio · 03-04-2021 10:01PM

Missed the introduction to this fella,who is he?
(I presume a neurosurgeon?)

That's right, Ciarain Bolger.

Dermot Morgan was only 45 when he died, so young.

That’s just hit home...the age I’m turning in 5 weeks...it’s shocking how young he was...I guess growing up watching Fr Ted and scrap Saturday he always appeared much older to the younger me.

To be honest, I’ve rarely been really disappointed by any of the guests. Even if they’ve been perceived by me to think they’ll be boring, Tommy seems to always get a bit of good out of every guest

SeaFields · 03-04-2021 10:04PM

Wake up supporting Leeds

Fine Cheers · 03-04-2021 10:05PM

"He'll wake up supporting Leeds" brilliant from Tommy !!

Dermot Morgan would have been 69 by now.

Time passes at a horrific rate

If I ever have brain surgery I want him to do it

quartz1 · 03-04-2021 10:07PM

That Doctor is a very likeable guy.

A neurosurgeon is definitely a person I wouldn't put in the boring category. I have so many questions for this man. I'm surprised because he isn't typical you know, but that's good.

External Association · 03-04-2021 10:08PM

You have to be a very unique type of person to be in a career like that.

I think sociopaths/psychopaths are a higher percentage in such jobs. They don't get emotionally involved, are detached.

Not saying about Ciaran, but the stats in general.

Samsgirl · 03-04-2021 10:08PM

Brilliant guest. My daughter had surgery on her skull when she was a baby, not by this guy but one of his colleagues.

Amazing work.

nsnoefc1878 · 03-04-2021 10:08PM

This guy fecking loves himself.

03-04-2021 10:08PM

He's great
