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

Jesus.

How can he be even more of a cretin than I thought possible.

Fuckin non entity.

That’s obviously for signing autographs.

That wouldn't be my department, J. To use a turn of phrase.

I'd rather stick with the facts.

But actually, wouldn't it be interesting if he was in the RTE canteen?

cant believe he got partridge wrong 🤣

A bit like this thread in your head?

"Weeks"....right. The NKM batphone must be off the hook recently.

I’m here and I don’t listen to any Irish or U.K. radio… the only time I listen to the radio is in my car and I listen to foreign stations where the presenters don’t speak English…

I also love this thread because we all get to discuss Ryan’s utter ineptitude at a job he’s been doing for the guts of 25 years. A job that has no doubt made him a multimillionaire, which we have all mostly funded (as well as Renault).

The man is so uncharismatic, unskilled, unlikable, and simply unable to perform simple basic generic music broadcasting that someone of his ‘experience’ should be able to do with his eyes closed and a skinful of pints taken on board, while only arriving at his desk 2 minutes before going on air and still delivering the goods… (that’s the way he’s been attempting to go about his business, however he simply lacks the skills & ability to be able to pull it off, but to him he probably genuinely believes he’s top tier - it couldn’t get any more Partridge).

This could have been an opportunity for him to re-invent himself, but he’s shown absolutely no interest in doing that and is simply just resting on his (misplaced, and vastly overinflated) laurels. He gives off an air of that he’s taken his slap on the wrist, and is paying the piper now at Virgin, but he knows/feels he’ll soon be forgiven and welcomed back with open arms… the returning martyr, who had to take one for team Dee and be the face of the scandal.

Its an absolutely spectacular fall from grace, and it’s absolutely fantastic to be witnessing it.

..

It’s quite staggering really. I’m starting to think that it’s a combination of his own hubris and a rather low opinion of the public that empowers him to try to reshape the narrative any way he sees fit. He believes that people will buy it.

He really does suffer from alarming lapses of self awareness at times.

Jesus christ...the unashamed arrogance and neck of tubridy....

Pathetic

The fact that he's been getting away with static for decades means that there was a big enough passive audience who just needed something on in the background.
