    Analysis of de bleedin obvious. Dreaming you're trapped in a room means you feel trapped etc... what a revelation.

    Awh now. Don't forget they have been scientifically proven to be able to predict the future.

    Suprised that went unchallenged.
    Some awful bollocks.

    I find dreams fairly prosaic. I mean, whenever I have some interesting stuff happening in the sleeping hours between my ears, it's nearly always because the previous day has exposed me to something along those lines, and it's just the grey matter putting it into order.
    No analysis needed.

    What throws a bit of a spanner into the works is taking the odd sleeping tablet - Noctimid is a bummer.

    Didn’t catch all the conversation but what I did hear would send anyone to sleep. One listener texted in about a dream of driving his car without insurance. Michael explained the dream saying “you are not fully protected when you go out on the road”. Mindblowing.

    Somebody started a rumour that he was in a wheelchair and half the country believed it for years.
    And that was before social media!

    More sloppy mistakes by Damien - giving out Molly's email address as Mollie.xxxxxx towards the end before correcting it, and reading out the headline about U.S. flights as "us flights" initially.

    I believed until I was about 25 that he was a double amputee, then it dawned on me I'd been had... probably after seeing him walk onto the Late Late. That really sparked the first doubt.

    Going back to his contribution, I'm surprised so many people are sceptical about dreams. If the hit TV show Frasier has taught me anything, and it has, it's that dreams are a glimpse into our interior lives. Sure, they are only a selection of the thousands of video files that bump against one another in the night, but why these particular files, and why repeatedly? Fascinating topic, I thought.

    Sloppy yet again referring to JP McManus losing his niece earlier this year. It was his daughter in law, as Henry de Bromhead correctly pointed out.

    This segment has been unadulterated misery.

    Tomorrow we get to open up a bit. No need to emphasise how far behind the UK we are, maybe just for the next couple of days.

    Now someone telling us to go for a walk. Wtf do you think we have been doing?

    I never got those vibes from him, to be honest.

    I think it's a good move by RTE to have a psychoanalyst versed in the Jungian & Lacanian tradition on the show. Exploration of the unconscious mind is fascinating.

    The stuff he comes out with is so obvious.

    Didn't you know? RTE 'talent' take the equivalent of teacher's holidays. Christmas, Easter, Summer, mid-terms etc.

    This stuff is beginning to gain traction Gov.

    Needs to be stamped out.

    Cormac o H-Eadra is a afficianado as well.
