What was manufactured about it? I am sure like all celebs there were 'starter' questions supplied but other than that it seemed a perfectly normal interview whether it was recorded or not.
But why can't Media outlets explain that they have a couple of canned responses from "stars" and they have manufactured a few questions..to fit into the sequence.
Well that didn’t happen here. Listening to it again now you can hear BoC and Arnold talking over each other occasionally, which wouldn’t happen if they were canned answers.
I actually remember when I was young that they would have radio interviews based on pre-recorded canned answers, specifically with the likes of Sean Connery during the Bond period, and so on. I don’t think that happens any more with Zoom calls, and modern technology, and so on.
If RTE actually had Arnie on the line, they would have given it to TLLS.
Well that could have been based on scheduling or anything.
Most people probably don't remember that Brendan O'Connor got to number 3 in the POP charts in spring 2000, it would probably be very un-pc now considering he based the appearance of the character on notorious sex offender fr Sean fortune https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O-PldwYpD0Q
Guest: "Remember that Pink Floyd album cover with the prism and the white light splitting into a rainbow"?
Boc: "Yeah, that was Tubular Bells, Mike Oldfield"
🤔
I don't see the issue with the Arnie interview. If it was pre-recorded, so what? Now, if they were splicing questions and answers from different sources, and there was no interview, that would certainly be a problem. I find it hard to believe that ever happened. If it did at one time, you certainly wouldn't get away with it now.
Ray D'Arcy doing a weekend nixer on the sound desk this morning it seems.
Did that conversation on Floyd/Oldfield really happen?
The cover to Dark Side of The Moon is one of the most famous album covers of all time.
You could argue Tubular Bells is also rather famous
But how you could confuse them is beyond me.........
Who is this woman talking too much sense on welfare tourism and Ukrainians?
She's a hotelier who's likely made a fortune provising accomodation for them.
I remember it being somewhat controversial at the time.
Ahh. She doth spout much plain speaking
Did she just say "mobots"?
Yep, he was talking to a body clock expert about the clock changing. I was going to start a thread on the subject, so I listened back to it. She was making a point about the different wavelengths of light and the effect on the body. I don't know what was going through his mind ... He wasn't sure though .....
Diverse opinions in government?
Really?
There isn't even any meaningful diverse opinions in the Dail amongst the multi-seat parties, govt or opposition, on these matters.
Mick Clifford is far too good to be on this panel.
"Sarah" he barks
The gasps of shock from O'Connor that that which cannot be spoken about on his show and RTE in general (I wonder why exactly) has been uttered.
'We have to stop accepting any more' [sic]
Two and a half years ago
The woman who works in the city centre has no feasible solutions but just wants to give, give, give.
Resentment in communities across Ireland - the powers that be knew this at the very start so I don't know why gaslighting is going on now as if it just occured to them.
No beheading before noon
Virtue signalling is a full time commitment, no room for other perspectives
Well from experience they have time to be perpetually offended too…..
Maybe she has an iron in the fire? Works for some publicly funded group that supports her narrative?
You could have sommit there Mr F.
O'Connor gets so excited when he has 'stars' on the programme -or down the line on the phone. He nearly lost his nickers when he was interviewing Nigella Lawson a while back. 'Thank you SO MUCH Nigella for taking the time to talk to me. If you're ever down in Cork by... .'
The same star struck excitement with Schwarzenegger. Behaving like a proper idiot.
He had Fergie (Andrew’s ex) on recently talking about her latest book & he seemed very smitten by her
Didn't get the final guest name he is a chef from Middleton or around.
Brendan goes to milk the behayzus out of the town flood cleanup, forget about talking about culinary advice.
Get all the misery porn.
the sooner I hope.
The hundreds of thousands of people who vote for him seem to have a different view
The man-hating is strong in this one.
