Saturday with Katie Hannon

Incredible stuff from Nooze Hannon today.

I was in the slab listening and couldn’t believe my ears.

Josepha was the ‘aunt Sally’ for today and the way Nooze weighed in with everything negative was astounding.

Everything Josepha said was shouted down by Nooze yet when ‘Up the Ra’ spoke not a word of dissention was heard.

How this person got a presenters job in RTE is a …well …a mystery to me.

She must know where some bodies are buried, to coin a phrase.

To be fair Josepha was talking out of both sides of her mouth and needed to be pulled up.

In every way (Sorry , couldn't resist) 😁

Well yes, we are in agreement on a number of aspects of this show, I was watching it on RTE News now and yes, the hypocrisy about Dail extended breaks when RTE news staff and generally have been awol for nearly four weeks was outrageous, indeed the 6 one team , still to return and Claire Byrne decided to breeze back into the studio last Wednesday as if she was never away, very telling on her last show a week before Christmas, no have a great Christmas listener's, see you in 4 weeks etc, she managed to sneak out the door quietly.

I do admit to being equally flabbergasted at the Dails 4 week break also.

The second item, re Funding given to schools and Katie's, back to its an airborne virus mantra was a low punch and you could tell by her facial expression and the ministers immediate terse reaction, she had over stepped the mark, objectivity had gone out the window and an advert break couldn't come quickly enough.

Very disappointing I have to say as I like Katie Generally.

Well isn't it amazing, we start agreeing for the new year 😁 but yes , being completely objective it was a very ,very poor showing by Katie Hannon 😏

Now please don't think I've gone soft in 2022 Brendan 🤣

I apologise sincerely and am humbly chastised 😁

I actually think Teachers would blush at Claires holidays 😏

She had a right mare yesterday.

Potential fireworks today, Colm Brophy, Louise O Reilly, Rosin Shorthall . Colm is almost in the next studio, such is his effort to social distance from Louise O Reilly 😁

O, I doubt they'll go there , the narrative continues to be all men's behaviour generally.

Very disturbing and sinister email sent in, not sure if you heard that 😳

Yes I did and it didn't do men any favours.

But then again was it a man or a woman that sent that in .

Many of the larger names are contracted to rte and get paid for a specific role/programme.

They are not directly employed and don't get holiday pay or rte pension.

This is often forgotten when the annual moanfest around rte salaries comes around.

As for Katie hannon, I listened once and never again.

Tis a typical tactic imv, pick someone on the extreme fringes (I have my doubts about the veracity of such correspondences) and place them on the alter and shout repent ye, there is a new church and it's very similar to the last, its high priests in the ngo's and suchlike are preaching to us to have a conversation but its only ever a one way conversation and we are the ones who must listen

Mouth almighty Brophy full of hot air and answering nothing.

O Dear, Colm stirring it 😁

He's a Regular on the show alright 👍
