The Louise Duffy Show - RTE Radio 1

A song by The La’s on the radio that ISN’T ‘There She Goes’! 😲😁

I thought it was The Coral.

The LAs not very prolific on the singles

Thought the shows on, both, Thursday and Friday were very good.

Lick The Tins.

(entire body shudders)

‘Babies’ by Pulp!

Good call 🙂

12-2 would suit me better, B. The liveline show on Newstalk is brutal.

What is "Specials"?

Oh for Specials - suggest follow the lead of BBC R4 between 7-10pm at night..

RTÉ Radio One are making fools of us by having so much needle time and not enough intelligent well researched programmes.

Fantastic tune! Its come up on most of the R1 music shows in the last couple of weeks, no idea why!

Seriously, is there a more life-affirming piece of music than ‘Do I Do’ by Stevie Wonder?

😎

What is with all the covers. Opened with a Carla Bruni cover yesterday of an ABBA song. Why bother?

Or is it just to get people to send in messages of annoyance of her doing this?

I'd say she's trying to generate a bit of reaction from listeners. Wouldn't be at all surprised if she has only a small fraction of the level of requests and interactions that Collins drew in. You need to build a relationship with listeners and somehow or other I think she's hard to warm to.

This shows producer must be doing a good job on spotify.

they'd fit in more songs if it was just an automated playlist, with no links.

LD is a spoofer of music, helped by a Producer - using this as a way into a prime time RTE slot.

Yes bring Ronan back on 12 to 1...or a radio legend and a lover of music like Dave Fanning, Gareth O'Callaghan or Ian Dempsey

If Ronan can pre-record links for 3 hrs for an RTE Gold show, it makes sense that surely he can do 1 hour live on Radio 1.

Now there are some radio presenters that get on my nerves but I can't understand Ford Fiestas constant negativity towards this show. How do you know she isn't a "lover of music" and what are the exact qualifications you need to gain that title?

I find Louise very inoffensive, she doesn't come across as a music snob and seems very down to earth.

I have stopped listening to all other music shows on radio with the exception of Tom Dunne due to the absolute muck that is repeated ad nauseum on the likes of Today FM. It's great to hear songs at midday that I normally wouldn't hear on daytime radio.
