The Ryan Tubridy Show **Mod: Read OP**

Your claim that you ' certainly are not a fan' and are just calling it like it is, is getting more and more suspicious with every post.

Whilst I try to resist being pernickitty, I can't help myself

Can we not forget the basket

That's chicken & chips in a basket with Mammy. Such a gastronmical complex dish not served in Ireland since the mid 80's,,& only invented to circumvent the alcohol license restrictions for night clubs at the time (No food = no alcohol ).

On a fun note, his Brexit spin could read

'Mammy is beginning to feel the heat now about our company Tuttle Productions declaring the €150k to the taxman. Revenue have been in touch, & what with me living in Big Wonderful London now, the place with bookshops, tubes, buses trains & laundrreetes, and her living in Ireland, she's the responsible company director now. She's pissed off that I buggered off to the UK & left her in the mire. I'll be coming back to the 'auld sod' imminently to practice imaginary podcasting & faux phone holding.(Vogue taught me well)

Don't worry, I'll still pretend to read books & bombard deaf & indifferent audiences with my vacuous pseudo nerdy non facts. So staye tuned, the king of mid morning misert will be back to waffle on another day. & if Noel can swing it, I'll get an Oireachtas appearance too'. 😁

I thought the same myself at times Bobson. Then I noticed that posts on here directly critiquing RT's show, with suggestions of improvements, well, those changes were manifested on RT's show.

Now I'm not saying coincidence isn't a thing, it really is, but I'm keeping an open mind that the fantasy projections may well have a basis in truth.

And of course, her show is broadcast at the palatable hour of 22.00 mon-thurs. No competition to BBC Question Time (Tv) on a Thursday night in election year.

And RT's contribution to the interview is all past tense, his grandfather & cousins, his move to London & basic shopping tasks, & the LLS. If he'd the sense he was born with he'd have uptalked a really good interview on TLLS show that would have created Google bait. Of course he didn't, he's as thick as a bucket of bricks in terms of that kind of savvy. Too narcissistic to see past himself, & too exhausted playing catch up to the pseudo nerd image he's invented for himself.

Whatever the time, & whatever the gig, Tubs has nothing else to offer an interview besides My big adventure moving to London, & did you know who my granddad was?

Nothing else to bring to the table, no other stock in trade, just witter witter witter.

I'll run a suggestion for the title of his next book

'Let them eat waffle'

A non riveting chronicle of a 50 yr old Irish radio & TV presenter who was forced to move to lowly DJ job the UK after being mugged by God in a hoodie. This is the story of his desperate needy climb back to public relevance, after he nepoostitically had it all, as well as €150k if v the taxpayers money.

You're right, it's not Frost/ Nixon, so no need for the etreme comparators Gregor. It is what it is, a tiny news podcast from a print media broadsheet, who assigns these time slots, in order of maximising of listensrship, based on metrics I'd imagine.

Whatever makes you think he's a stranger in a strange land. Sure didn't he work in London when filling in on BBC radio, didn't 2 of his siblings live here also. Wasn't he bragging to us that he was virtually a VIP on the Irish Embassy guest list. And then of course he's inundated with many lunch invitations by the likes of Graham Norton & co, ...he's yet to wangle one from Wogan's son. But that's a work in progress, especially now that nothing has come from his 3 week on air hustle for a free trip to Japan (with his daughters). He didn't even get a Katsu chicken roll out of that grift.

And sure isn't he being dragged out to watch the rugby & forced to post pictures of it on social media.

I'm sure the constant churn of Irish tourist visitors to London, who go to his 'Guinness favoured pub' will keep the welcome in London going for him.

I'd love to do it myself, no really I would, but it turns out I'm washing my hair most nights, fetlock by fletlock. Diddums 😔

And I'm happy to be corrected in a polite and constructive way, with citations. Just as I engage with others.

There's many reasons that section could be off-limits at that time of day, particularly if the owner wishes to entertain a guest with some privacy.

Unfair to go casting aspersions on Mark Wogan, who by all accounts is a successful restaurateur, innovative podcaster and a genuinely nice guy.

The wise old saying "the lady doth protest too much, methinks" springs to mind.

I'm not sure the barter account runs to five fingers. NK will have to call Geraldine & Dee to get that level of convoluted sign off
