    I hatef her before her show, but I'm sort of grateful she has a show. It shows how terrible she is as a host. (Should have gotten a pay cut after her abortion debate debacle. Instead RTE gave her a pay rise... idiots).

    Like, she had a court case, about 2 or 3 years ago, and she lost. But still had to make a payout over some level of defamation. She spun it as a 'win' because the payout wasn't as much as the person suing had wanted.

    Now she's being sued by Joe Brolly, a trained Barrister. Doesn't look good for her.

    Her talk of leaving TV 'for her family' sounds like a 'gimme the Late Late Show, RTE' move.

    Brian Cody legend in the game of hurling but what annoys me about him is the amount of layers of clothes he wears on matchdays in the Winter/Spring

    Big tough scary man but still needs to wear about 5 skins (jackets/hoodies/long sleeve shirt etc)

    Angela Scanlon. Don’t know anything about her but just that horrible annoying ad she’s in that’s on every five minutes drives me mental.

    Christiano Ronaldo. I couldnt give a feck about soccer but he has one of those faces youd never tire of punching.

    RTE are probably gonna have to get another host to finish her 'self-titled' show. Cos she'll be on maternity leave.

    Why not just keep Tommy Tiernan's show on? Spare the hassle?

    100000% this... ‘a mental health advocate’... fûck off...

    an advocate for lining his pockets as some drippy goon feeding off other people’s misfortune... Bressie can come back to us when hes got a degree in psychology, psychiatry or similar, jesus , the tv wants to turn itself off when he appears... grim..

    I dunno, he’s a good looking lad. You’d imagine the tv would be into that.

    There are countless presenters miles better than her. Even Pat Kenny (who I'm slow to praise) showed how inept she was when he handled the abortion debate on Virgin Media. He shut down people talking crap, and he didn't let it turn into Jerry Springer.

    Sarah McInerney is infinite times the interviewer Claire Byrne is, and she won't take the bluffing that politicians try. She also won't show clear bias, or intentionally misquote someone.

    Claire Brock is very good. Ciara Doherty is better than Matt Cooper, imo, but I'd put Claire Brock slightly ahead of her. (And that's not slighting Ciara. Just my opinion. I think she needs to shake off the 'Ireland AM' that it feels like permeates her interview style.)

    Rory O’Connor unfunny and trying to exploit the mental health market.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,639 ✭✭✭RabbleRouser2k


    I get the feeling he's trying to score a TV show. Some kind of gig.

    For a supposed 'comedian' he's one miserable individual. Watched him on 'Celebrity Hell Week'... He spent the whole show crying and whining. Anyone else had their 'breakdown' moment, but it was maybe one or two. He was crying the whole show.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,792 ✭✭✭Hangdogroad


    Even Jason Byrne is playing the mental health card now. Wouldnt mind but I remember years ago reading an interview with him where he described himself as a "happy chappy" and basically scorned the idea that great comedians suffer from mental issues (Peter Sellers etc)

    Every dog & his mother is at the ol' mental health 'avocacy/ guru' carry on these days ........ Let's be honest.....Roz Purcell, Bressie, blind lad in the boat club& Jason Byrne......... they wouldn't exactly be inspirational 'go to' guys if you felt you were 'stumbling' a bit on the path through life



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,842 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    If your becoming irrelevant jump on the mental health bandwagon



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,819 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    I’m glad others are starting to see through this charade now... none of the gobshîtes have anything approaching a qualification to get on tv, radio or any media / public platform waffling about it... it’s dangerous too quite frankly...

    want advice on psychology listen to a psychologist.

    want advice on a medical issue listen to a doctor.

    could I develop an interest in diabetes and start calling myself a ‘diabetes advocate’ ??? Dishing out advice and opinions on the condition, treatment, supports, what to do / what not to ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,347 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Unfortunately Strumms there are even bigger stults out there who listen to these goons.

    Once I hear these ‘advocates’ ‘activists’ ‘personal trainer’ ‘influencer’ types come on the radio in casa Bendar the OFF

    button gets a fair auld whack of the butter knife.

    These chancers have necks like a cavalry persons saddle.

    If you haven't been hit with a rubber bullet, sprayed with pepper spray, thrown in prison for a night, or in faced adversity for protesting something you believe in- you're not an activist, you're a nuisance. Going on instagram/ twitter/ tiktok or whatever to 'take a stance' isn't being an activist... Someone saying their opinion, in a public arena, and allowing discussion and debate-that's activism. You can't 'block' or 'mute' an individual for saying anything. Instead, you have to educate yourself, and counter their argument.

    We have Joe O'Shea now, being a 'vaccine activist'... just get lost. He's not medically trained to give advice, and he's calling for Draconian measures to be imposed on people. He didn't care when he went drunk driving, only when he got caught. And he didn't care about other people's health when he went to some pub to smoke indoors, to 'protest' the smoking ban, after some publican decided he wasn't going to stick to the smoking ban. He ended up paying a huge fine over it, at the time. (Joe wrote about it for some paper he was writing for, think it was the Sunday World. Photographed himself smoking too.) He's an absolute brat, but Claire Byrne wheels him out, every chance she gets, to give his crappy opinion on anything.



  • Posts: 1,344 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    That Joe o shea really is a 'busted flush' .....totally irrelevant bluffer..... was watching him the other night on claire byrne show.....if his ranting was designed to get the ' vaccine hesitant' to maybe reconsider, perhaps come on board, well that TOTALLY backfired. He wasn't just promoting draconian measures for the 'unvaccinated' ...... he was actually promoting compulsory jabbing..... north Korean carry on



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,639 ✭✭✭RabbleRouser2k


    And I have had my vaccine, just to clarify too. I've had both jabs, fully vaccinated. (Doubt I'll need a third, because I don't have any underlying conditions).

    O'Shea is just.... He's a failed journalist, turned failed TV presenter, now turned failed 'Expert on everything'. He'll be talking Mental Health next.
