The Stand With Eamon Dunphy

72sheep · 06-08-2022 12:44am

The Daily Mail today reports on new Long Covid UK ONS data which mentions a "dizzying array of symptoms have been attributed to long Covid, including: [...wait for it...] feeling sick".

OMG Eamo and The Ryan Project where is your humanity? You callous, cold-hearted, granny-jeopardising fans-of-the-scientific-method, there are people out there that are "feeling sick". Where are you in our hour of need? Surely there's some medication we should be mandated to take, please let it be so ;-)

Your obsession with "the Ryan project" is getting almost as tiresome as Ryan was himself. Fortunately he seems to have gone away but you keep bringing him back up.

But there are others readers though who are very interested indeed. If The Ryan Project’s disappearance is now to be deemed unremarkable then they might think we did not notice his appliance of science that came before ;-)

I'd just like to back that other guy up there: these constant mentions of "the ryan project".... Might be time to let it go and move on.

Id love it if he did more crime related stuff & sports. I think hes excellent at that. When it comes to politics, hes very unbalanced & nowhere near impartial enough on most matters to be a good presenter. He has the same guys on continuously spouting what he believes. He has an excellent voice & way of speaking & I could listen to him most days but hes extremely biased.

When you look into his tough childhood & upbringing but then subsequent success, its clear why hes a bit of a champagne socialist living in Rathmines now. Probably has some sort of guilt complex like a lot of well off people do.

Lads, at the end of the last episode we'd learnt that Long Covid is "no joke” and Tomas described his Covid symptoms as akin to being in a car crash. So serious concerns raised again. Maybe that’s the end of a chapter but it’s not a conclusion to the book; you can’t just choose to stop the science whenever you fee like it. Unless of course this is going to be The Ryan Project’s Unfinished Oeuvre, lol!

72sheep · 25-08-2022 1:40pm

*Trigger warning* Readers that don't appreciate follow-up should look away now.

It's been 3 months since The Ryan Project's last episode where he painted a fairly dire picture: "carcrash" symptoms in young men, long Covid is serious stuff. Is Tomas ever going to tell us it's safe to come out? Real scientists can change their mind when the facts change but in this case our scientist instead appears to have gone awol ;-)

Zzzz ;-)

Wait till you hear the rabble beating episode with the "great" Richard Corrigan

What did you disagree with? He spoke a lot of sense.

gypsy79 · 30-08-2022 5:16pm

Its one sided rabble rousing like there isnt insane inflation in Ireland

Unbalanced shouting from pulpits

Good news, Tomas is giving a talk in Dublin in the next week or so which includes Covid as an agenda item. A return to the podcast surely then must be imminent... unless Eamo is not inviting him (which would be a cruel forsaking of the person who saved the lives of the entire team) or The Ryan Project is declining those invitations (possibly he does not like how the latest data reflects on his scientific methods). Will be intreeeeeeging to see... :-)

Interesting to who? You and the obsessed souls who can't stop posting in the Covid forums? If you got off the internet and looked around, you'd see that the vast majority of the population are going about their lives as normal again. Human nature being what it is, I reckon most people do not want to rake over the coals of 2020 and 2021 but want to get on with their lives.

Lads, it's a sign of a healthy open society when we expect our scientists, who've had very strong public opinions on a national crisis, to explain their position as time progresses. This is how we learn. There's nothing to be afraid of here, Tomas chatting to Eamo is not going to prompt a new variant ;-)

Tork · 18-09-2022 8:59pm

This is a thread about Eamon Dunphy's podcast, not about Covid. There are plenty of threads here where you can discuss Tomás Ryan and his Zero covid buddies if you so wish. I have just looked down through my podcast feed for when he last had Tomás Ryan on. It was 26th May - nearly 4 months ago. He has only had one recent Covid-related episode and he wasn't on it. People now have far more pressing things to be worried about than a pandemic that seems to be on its way out. It's possible even Eamon senses what way the wind is blowing.

hawley · 26-09-2022 5:03pm

According to Eamon we've only lost one out the last ten under Kenny. We've actually lost three out of the last five.

Yeah that raised my hackles alright

For Forks Sake · 26-09-2022 5:30pm

Has Eamon ever made any mention of what became of his modern-day Lord Haw-Haw (Kremlin shill Bryan MacDonald)?

He's not been on since the invasion started, indeed his previous non-stop Twitter a/c has gone silent since 26th Feb, beginning to suspect Vlad had him dropped out a window at this stage.

Still Ill · 26-09-2022 7:24pm

Anyone know whose article he was referring to in today's football podcast? Seemed to be someone he's not too fond of.. Sadlier or Damien Delaney? Or someone else?

This was the last I heard of him anyway. Always found the podcasts the featured on amusing. Wonder if he's eligible for mobilisation..

jimwallace197 · 26-09-2022 8:00pm

Yah, and i like Dunphy and subscribe to his podcast but Kenny deserves to be called out. We took a lead which was nice but Kenny and his team didnt react anywhere they near quick enough to the pressure they were putting on us.

Phillip Quinn I’d say for the Irish daily mail but that would be a guess.

applehunter · 27-09-2022 3:00am

Some beauties on this show the last few weeks.

gypsy79 · 28-09-2022 10:30am

His leading questions are getting ridiculous at this stage

He must pay a nice fee for these people to come on or else none of them have any integrity

The constant linking everyone to the Conservatives is embarrassing. He said that Hungary was no longer a democracy recently!

I thought Johnny O'Reilly today was excellent, hes one of my favorite guests, seems to have a good level of insight into whats going on in Ukraine & Russia.

When it comes to politics, I agree, hes far too biased & seems to only see things one way. I wouldnt be the biggest fan of Stanage but at least he does seem to have a handle on whats going on over in the states. Not a fan of William Yang either & Chris Jones, I could take or leave him. I think the show would benefit alot more if he had more diverse people on with different political views.

I think hes got a good rapport & camaraderie with Giles & Brady, very enjoyable listening to them although I can appreciate they're not as up to speed as they should be with football. He bounces off Nicola Tallent well too so much so that I started listening to her podcast as well.

Didnt like Fionnan Sheehan before the show at all but since listening to this podcast, I have a new found respect for him.

And that article you quote doesnt say it isnt a democracy

Not been a full democracy is very different. Someone could (I am not gonna bother going that far) claim the exact same about Ireland given how MSM decide what facts are allowed to be discussed. Thats a completely different issue

But what you have done is just highlight the hyperbole that Eamo is guilty of over and over. He takes the spirit of the truth and manipulates the truth to what he wants the truth to be.

29-09-2022 1:01pm

I don't know to say. That article seems pretty straight-forward. Life is too short to argue the semantics of Eamon's language.
