She never tells us or explains how she cleared it so suddenly in any of these interviews. It would be racist to ask. Just go onto her website generally.

If you owe €15k on your credit card, stop spending on your credit card, for anything. There. Now where's my 15 thousand followers, and all my click income?. "I can be an influencer. I can do that. I can lay bricks."

Unprofessional advice, for anything, is next to worthless. Like consulting with Dr. Google.

Are you implying that criminality is an element here. Stop with your dog whistles.

Last night a poster said they didn't want to watch a segment of the show as they had no interest in the personal finances of someone they didn't know.

Ironically it was you who brought it to everyone's attention that the lady was coloured!

Here you are jumping to more conclusions about criminality. The lady could have got a gift, dig out etc. Again the poster said nothing about criminality, it's you again. I'll always remember the username Pintman Paddy after your disgraceful carry on here last night.

I don't think you're well and are trying to find offence everywhere. You must be deeply unhappy. You might need professional help with your anger and losing temper so frequently.

I missed all the action last nite. What happened?? Damn u and deleting the tweets on here.

RabbleRouser2k · 16-01-2023 04:26AM

Caught the repeat of Tommy Tiernan's show, after avoiding the LLS.

Now, normally when you hear 'discussed father's death, discussed the troubles etc' you'd be thinking of Ryan Tubridy, and ALL the misery...

With Tiernan interviewing Kielty, it was actually somewhat upbeat? Like, maybe it was Kielty being comfortable with Tommy (knowing him from standup) but there was great deal of sort of not wanting to 'wallow' in the tragedy, and looking upon things as growth, of learning, of rising above and not letting it drag you down.

Similarly, a guy who lost both his arms in a bizarre accident, then wallowed in drink and drugs in order to numb himself, only to get a double hand's transplant (well, double arms, to be more specific) and if that interview was handled by Tubridy, you'd get 'Misery'... but with Tommy, it was jokes, it was optimism, it was 'the best thing that could have happened to me was to lose my arms', it's genuinely fascinating how the guy who's doing a talkshow 'as a side gig' is able to do a far better job, than the guy who's 'meant' to be hosting the flagship RTE show that's been a staple of RTE's programming for 60+ years.

deezell · 16-01-2023 10:29AM

"Where did the €159k for the surgery come from, maybe rob a bank,? That'd be 'unarmed' robbery!" Or words to that effect. Picture Tubridy trying to pull that gag off, or how he might react when the guest said his new limbs were brilliant for precisely that task, (the pulling one). It was sureally funny, viewed through your fingers at times. The iceman was really sharp, he could do stand up himself.

Pintman Paddy Losty · 16-01-2023 02:16PM

Jesus Christ. Get a grip of yourselves.

Ryan is probably one of the best we have at dealing with issues like illness and death with great sensitivity. Tommy Tiernan is a comedian and his show is totally different. (I like it too).

What are you suggesting that he do? Start taking the piss out of kids with Cancer? Grow up.

deezell · 16-01-2023 02:40PM

You're obviously the type of who asks the people accompanying the bereaved, disabled, or otherwise distressed person, "Does he take sugar?"

This actually happened to me as a child, I spoke up and and said, " I've only lost 'X', I can still hear and speak. I've endured that type of patronising sh¡te my whole life. Ask a disabled person how he wipes his arse. He'll tell you, and won't save your blushes either.

But with Ryan, he always resorts to grief, illness, and death.

No matter how hopeful the situation... Ryan finds the misery in it. It's like he feeds on it.

StevenToast · 19-01-2023 09:06PM

Friday nights guests...paul mescals sister, a comedian no one ever heard of, a rapper no one ever heard of and someone they pulled from the RTE canteen.....

Im not joking.

Directed by Edgar Wright, he of Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Last Night in Soho fame.

It's rather old school in my opinion, and that's why it works. I find it clever that the secretary, or whoever she is, is dressed in the McDonald's colours, red and yellow.

Gearoid Farrelly has been around for a while, but he's not made a dent, really. Even in this day and age of 'diversity', and him being gay, you'd think he'd be better well known. He's popped up on stuff for like 15 years or so, but I'd say most people would be hard pressed to tell you a single thing about him. I mean, Joanne McNally is better known, and that's a goddamn war crime, imo. (She looks and sounds insane).

I saw the one of his other guests is a Mayo Footballer who's never won an All-Ireland, but had 6 chances at it. Is this not just like when Hillary Clinton lost the nomination, then lost election, then went on a 4 year sour grapes tour? Like, do we really wanna hear about someone not winning?

Katie Hannon's a really good interviewer, but that just sounds like an advert rather than a discussion. And rappers... 'nuff said. Irish rap tends to be rather rubbish, tbh.

He should invite the Burke family on, and let them chant their case, altogether, speaking over everyone else. All I've ever seen is images of them trooping from one court or another behind the Matriarch. Seriously scary looking. It would be good to hear what they sound like. Flesh out my nightmares.

Found a video of one of Enoch and his bro. They sound like scientologists.

You couldn't have them on Tubridy- they'd wipe the floor with him. Honestly, he's had some easy 'targets' on his show, and he's botched the interview. If the Burke's came on, he'd end up making a mess of it, and folks watching would be sitting there thinking 'The Burke's aren't that bad actually'.

retalivity · 20-01-2023 10:33AM

Surprised that Tubridy's not trying to do some live link to Christy Dignam's home, he'd easily fill an hour with that.

Don't worry, there will be an Aslan LLS special when Christy dies. Another 'filler' edition to pad out the show cos every week they struggle to find guests to fill the running time.

We will have the best and greatest of irish music talent saying how great Christy was, and doing various cover versions.

Yes, all of whom have no doubt looked down their noses at Aslan and their fans for years.

deezell · 20-01-2023 11:56AM

Christy always up front about the wreckage of drug abuse. Speaking of wreckage, Tubs should invite Iggy Pop on, as he's headlining Curraghmore Waterford this August. 75 years young and still standing, his bones must be pure crystal at this stage, he physically resembles a discarded syringe. A legend. How would Tubridy cope with him I wonder.

deezell · 20-01-2023 01:05PM

And FYI, that painful production, 'Toy Show, the Root canal' or whatever it's called, has officially bombed. Dee and the gang refused an FOI request to see the books, but it's set to run for several years now to try and recoup the cost. So even less in the LLS kitty for guests.
