Not a good look. I wonder did he go because this was going to come to light?

I tried to listen, I really did, but if there was a kernel of gold, I missed it in the sea of abject bollockology.
I did think he unnecessarily mixed irrelevant opinions on the bland nature of the current RTE content with withering condemnation of the behaviour of the elite in RTE.He is a Marmite character but he certainly does not shy away from calling it as he sees it and I don't think anyone in the media has given such a view without the usual qualifications around nothing wrong being done ,etc etc.
Maia was defending Tubridy a bit lately.
I just wonder would Joe Brolly be as forthright in his views about the state of RTE if he was still working for them. He might still be a bit sore about his exit from RTE.
Holidays dude, the little places in Provence duddnt give good value when unoccupied.
Get my dhhrift.
Holiday season
Do people really get upset over who bans them on Twitter?
They most certainly do and not to mention here also to a degree. I mentioned some legalise regarding notices of termination by a landlord earlier and some kent has cast judgement on me already. I might be argued that internet and more to the point social media is a bad thing?
These 5 presenters have salaries between €100,000 to €170,000+.......they also have extra people to read out the sport...the weather....and what it says in the papers......and in all honesty, when was the last time that any one of them took down a politician or a public figure? They tend to give them an easy ride.
Just on a side note....I come down in the morning and tell Alexa to play Radio 1.....if any of those presenters are not on do I care?...No, of course not...i dont turn to another station. Makes no difference who is on. If any of those 5 were gone in the morning I would still listen to Radio 1 in the morning......
We need to pay "The Talent" exorbitant salaries, even if it means having an ensemble of them presenting a morning news/current affairs programme that anyone could do, because otherwise we'd end up with people who can't press buttons, read off cue cards/not show their narcissistic selves at Oireachtas Committees, or barely string sentences together on their 'caller led' show.
That hospital and metro projects really annoys me. The NCH board are a bunch of progress blocking fuckwits protecting their positions having been asked to slow progress for certain reasons.
It's easy to lie blame but the builders are not the problem like the media are making out.
A national shame and stain on a whole generation of politicians. All that for a NATIONAL Children's Hospital in the wrong location. It could take 50 minutes to get to the M50 from Athlone and another 50 to get from the M50 to NCH in bad traffic.
Some nice corruption and stupid thinking there
RTE used to be home to some extremely educated and talented people and for me the golden era of RTE is long gone. I'm thinking of those people who were able to research, produce and present programs, who would go through the archives or do their own research and come up with some great programs. And then there were the genuine entertainers. That generation is gone from RTE. I'd say Larry Gogan and Ronan Collins were the last two.
The current generation are on huge money, need massive teams around them and yet still produce medocrity.
€200,000,000 plus to mess with a year.
A play ground for shitehawkes.
Need massive teams to give them some semblance of looking good and knowing what they are doing, but even that fails with D'Arcy
100% Reboot?
I've just listened to the Brolly podcast. It's a bit all over the place, but he does make some valid points.
It's worth a listen to IMO, he fairly goes through the "talent" under NKM, and NK himself for a shortcut so to speak. Lots of criticism for RTÉ management too.

Sound out. I was put off it by the 47 minutes mark. I'll will play it tomorrow as I put Joker cards in sandwich shops and give to the poor.
On topic and theme I'm watching The Young Offenders S3.
Very Bad in my opinion.
Do you have any insight into the BBC taking it?
I repurposed 13 sandwiches worth a whopping €71.56 and gave them to the poor from the capitalist PIGS of which Orwell spoke so well.
I read books don't you know?
I also left €50K cash for sport and sundry as a proper Kent.
You know my name. You Know my number. I am The Joker.
NKM is looking for a photoshop expert - your expertise is about the level he's looking for
Don't bother I already got the Gig....Just presented a competitive quote to combine all these multiple edits, modifications and releases into one final image...
I could spend hours on them but to no avail.
I just throw a draft up and sure as you know it 3 UPVOTES or thanks.
They are sketches or visual ideas that I cant communicate otherwise in text.
Photo bashing indeed.
One may gargle my balls as I create if need be I dare say?
NKM have decided Photoshop is not for them and have redesigned their front page.
Just to be absolutely clear that €50k in cash of €500 notes was chilled before I put in SpuerValu like a salad fork.
I just saw that, they must have put a good €50 into that upgrade. 🙄🤣
Still pics of Ciara Kelly and Lottie Ryan up there under the Brand Ambassador section…..are they using a Transition Year Student for their IT needs?
There’s a NEWS section too. Last update was 21st June, 2 days before “the thing” broke. No mentions of all the publicity Ryan and indeed Noel himself have gotten since then. #Intriguing
And one of the small “number of staff” has changed her profile pic to showcase her new hairstyle. #priorities
i’m sure if I looked through all of it I’d find plenty more…..
Amazing how stupid people are that the need a "celebrity" to endorse an idea or cause.
The population are some dumb.
The sheep are terrified of the wolves when its the shepherd who is going to eat them.
I want Tubs back as soon as possible so the public reaction completely bankrupts RTÉ relying on licence fees.
The company that designs NKM website. Wonder is it owned by Noelly himself 🤔
There’s be great fun and games if they let him back. The 24 hour active Tubridy threads would keep Boards going in ad revenue for a start, half of Boardsies would lose a lot of sleep posting and counter-posting and the mods & admins would need to give up any day job!
He’d be more painful than ever to listen to, he would double up the #bekind shtick and go on about the horrible trolling heads he has had to put up with, but how he keeps getting cards neck deep, preventing egress from the hallway, and how children are running up to him on the street to hug him, and that most of the nation is behind him. We’d need a vomit bucket to accommodate the extent of how sickened we’d be.
I’d say it’s owned by a transition year student who has outsourced the actual work to Fiverr.com
