Murph has been good this week, but things can get a little smug between the two of them when himself and Ken are working together.
Each of them likes to assert a bit of dominance over the other. I've no doubt Murph's extensive use of Irish in yesterday's outro was a flex to leave Ken with little in the way of a reply.
I've been a Murph critic before but Murphand Ken combo worked really well this week. Better than Eoin and Ken I would say!
Came here to post that!
I thought 'what kind of a crazy analogy is this?' until I googled him 😲
I always enjoy Lawrence Donnegan but never knew he was in Llyod Cole and the Commotions...and The Bluebells.
Loving "Golf" Ken.
Irish Times Politics podcast is on Acast. Ads often break in without warning mid-sentence!
All the golf journalists in Ireland must be wondering how the fcuk did Ken Early get this gig 😂
Maybe by not licking the hole of one of the world's most financially and ethically dubious "sports" ? 😁
Makes sense really, most podcasters that have a membership/patreon/etc feed use Acast for the free version... More power to them I'd say
Couldbe mad but on the 3 seconds of Lunchtime Live i heard before I could get to the radio I thought I heard Malachy Clerkin's voice.
Not even sure why I'm posting this, now that I think about it
Ken on Tonight on Virgin Media talking about the Golf.
A researcher obviously heard his piece on it earlier this week.
Yeah, there's going to be ads on the non subscriber shows this coming Monday onwards. It will remain ad free for subscribers
Noticed a few podcasts making this move recently. Assume it's a financially motivated decision.
Does anyone know why they're moving the Monday show to Acast? Extra revenue source maybe?
The good thing about Ireland losing is that you know you'll get a good podcast
That exactly it when Flynn. Was slow to warm to him but love him now. Oisin is my favourite gaa pundit, pity he's not on rte for the Sunday game.
Took me a while to warm to Paul Flynn but he's a very good listen. Calls it like it is and admits it when he calls it wrong. Oisin McConville I always rated highly, knows his stuff
Ken needs to contribute to the gaa more. Himself and Murph make a great tag team
Have to say, I love the GAA coverage this year.
The football & hurling pods have been highly enjoyable. (All the more so when Ken says, well, anything at all really).
No 25 year old Simpsons reference though!
Ken on the golf controversy was entertaining.
No coverage of the Kerry v Antrim game, slightly disappointing considering how good a game it was
If you had a drinking game for every time Jamie Wall said 'like', you'd be dead within minutes.
I do like his enthusiasm though
Could posters please elaborate more on WHY they like or dislike things? Makes it so much more interesting for the neutral.
I enjoyed it.
Terrible podcast today but trying to make a good podcast out of that Ireland match would be like trying to make a luxury birthday cake out of sh1t and broken glass. They would have been better off talking about Boris Johnson and/or stranger things.
Curb your enthusiasm?
Fair enough. I stand corrected. I just didn't happen to read those articles. I suspect even more truth will come out over time. Sad that a Champions League final in Paris, on paper the dream night for most fans, would turn into a nightmare for so many. Paris as a city has really lost its prestige for me these days. Like London. Beautiful in the centre, great to visit for a weekend and then leave. Stunning facade but rotten to the core for the ones that live there day to day.
It said c**t, we meant aunt.
Any sign of Murph at tonight's match, thought I saw him behind Cody, don't think it was him though.
All articles 5 to 6 days old....
