    I don't think there has been one mention of Covid by any guest at any time in the whole series...which is refreshing. Good call there by somebody.

    Music owes a lot to the Beatles , the kinks, the who , kraftwork and jimi Hendrix. Not an opinion but a scientific and technological fact.

    The fella who invented the wheel was a genius.

    Personally the Beatles aren't in it with the Stones, Elvis, Bowie, Thin Lizzy.. most 1960s and 1970s bands I can think of.

    She loves you yeah, yeah, yeah.. and most of their songs do nothing for me. A good few songs are brilliant. But, personally, I don't get the hype. I know Oasis would say they were their inspiration. So it must be me out of step!!

    2 left I think

    I think in the wake of the success of Tommy's show, the LL is done.

    RTÉ should keep this as the flagship talk show now. It's not too out there for the conservative viewers and is good natured and hearting throughout, yet utterly gripping by times with stories that are inspiring and sometimes harrowing without ever veering into misery porn with a giddy yet oddly detached Tubs looking on at the little man/woman.

    Tiernan obviously is in his element doing it, good format, it's a ratings hit and it's only a little over an hour long unlike the dirge that is the LL.

    More please.

    You don’t need to like them but they practically paved the way for multiple genres, inc Bowie and lizzy :) elvis re marketed the blues but he also paved the way

    How could you not know about HIV, honestly? Someone going to college too, not someone who left school at 14. It's more treatable now but is a massive cost on the health system for wrecklessness.

    Ah so HIV positive for having unprotected sex riding around.

    Would lead you to believe it was incredibly naive.

    Is he 'famous' as such? Google is only giving me the Dublin gangland guy of the same name.

    Agreed if it was the 80s or early 90s ok but 2012 ffs. He obviously never really listened to the media or he would have heard plenty about it back then or seen plenty about it on TV.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Don't mean to be disrespectful to him, he's very brave coming on TV talking about this but every sexual health leaflet you get in school or in youth clubs screams about HIV/AIDS.

    I'd like to think him disclosing his naivety about the topic at a younger age will be of great benefit to many watching tonight so fair play to him for coming on.

    Really? I never got a leaflet about sexual health in school or any club.

    In the 80's and 90's it was wall to wall on adverts on tv, radio and public health campaigns. Additionally the arrival of the condom here was marketed as protecting against AIDS.

    Surely it's as common a worry in the gay community as an unwanted pregnacy or STIs is/are in heterosexual relations.

    Yes. Quite a lot of people died horrible deaths in the 1980s and 1990s.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    He's asking questions that I can't imagine any other RTE personality asking, and I suspect lots of people are interested in the answers.
