    Do you normally take medical advise from anonymous morans online?

    Did you read my post.

    The reviews talked about his manner, his ability to connect with them as patients.
    Which chimes with what some people are detecting.

    The reviews say nothing bad about his medical or technical ability.

    The reason I mentioned his manner is that it's important to trust someone working on your brain, irrespective of his expertise.

    There’s 2 sides to every relationship failure, and **** happens to the best of people just the same. He’s gifted, he’s human just like the rest of us.

    Exactly. Those kind of comments are tabloid like. We never ever know the reality of another person's life and relationship.

    Rita Ann is a lovely lady but I'm drifting away.

    Could just be me.

    Someone needs to tell Tommy there is no such thing as a third half. Honestly that one thing would nearly turn me off the show.

    Its a gag remember he's a comedian. Funny though that he's extremely pedantic on grammar, English etc on his podcasts.

    Think her reading of the poem made it, gas she found it so funny. Never heard of her before but I'll look up some of her poems say lots 'old Galway' in them.

    Easily the best guest of the series so far. Fascinating chap to listen to and clearly Tommy was enthralled by him. Very very well done.

    Amazing guest. He was so down to earth, he goes against ever preconception I'd have about a top surgeon of his age group.

    He went to a normal Christain Brothers school not a private school and no one in his family were doctors.

    No, I'm gone aswell that's why I'm on boards!

    First two guests were outstanding and I'd prefer to have listened to both of them for longer and not have the 3rd guests.

    Bolger was my favourite. Fascinating man. Would love a few pints with him to discuss his life.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?

    I know I'm really out on a limb here but I think the Beatles are way over rated.

    Songs like Love Me Do, She Loves You, Twist and Shout..pure rubbish.

    Penny Lane, nice little pop song.

    Greats like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds and Strawberry Fields are excellent.

    2 great interviews so far with top class guests. No comparison with the LLS last night.

    Stop watching the LLS with the hope that they replace Tubs.

    Just looked at some of his reviews online.

    People say his manner is poor and unempathetic.

    I suppose once he's technically skilled that's what matters but still it would be important to have confidence in a guy who was going to operate on your brain.

    I would have confidence in him. He had an engaging no nonsense approach.
