Following on from main thread in Current Affairs about Tubs in general (now closed and mod suggestion that Entertainment category is more suitable).
Indeed, entertainment in certain respects is what Tubs has provided, albeit perhaps in a way not intended. And still awaiting 150k payback to the licence fee holder.
And of course, his new career in Virgin Radio which is imminent.
copying some frequent posters from original thread.

Cat-Mod: See post here regarding off-topic segues.
Would all these people have anything in common I wonder?
One talent agency and its staff providing content for its other staff. The cycle continues.
"I’d suggest it’s a much more fulfilling use of one’s time than wasting one’s life online unsuccessfully trying to convince a complete stranger to change their mind."
Yet here you are with the rest of us.
lol 😂😂😂😂😂
He get canned already!?! He’s surprised me even with this.
Youve surely breached your 75mins for the day by now
Well, I’ll tell you this, all the “talk” in Doheny & Nesbitts, last night, was Ryan’s podcast. Rumour has it he’s got Macca, himself, Sir Paul McCartney, lined up. Sees it as the ‘Desert Island Discs’ of books.
Everyone’s excited.
nah he’s done 😂 that’s a shıt canning if ever there was one. 🤣
The podcast business is a very tough and competitive gig. Irrespective of his complete absence of talent he hasn’t a hope, especially seeing as his primary interest is money.
Very good post but I absolutely refute the 'Covid hero to zero' bit except to say it was entirely a concoction of the incestuous media in this country.
Nothing, and I mean nothing would surprise me with Netflix.
I see it's gone up from a very strict 60 minutes per day to 75. Graveyard mods, I'm calling you but don't expect much. This is what lowlevel is and outside of After hours, it's ruining the site.
Mods don’t read threads.
Have you reported it ?
Oh don't worry, why would I when nothing will ever be done.
it’s a shame we won’t know who the guests will be, on his podcast, prior to it being recorded.
We could contact them on Twitter and ask them to put forward the question to Ryan ‘are you going to pay back the €150,000 to the Irish public Ryan ?
That may also give them second thoughts about doing the podcast.
There are a couple of mods knocking about in the thread.
It’s unfair to say they won’t do anything. If you have a problem with a post why not PM one of the mods ?
Maybe the poster is going completely unreported on this thread because everyone thinks reporting to mods is pointless ? I am guilty of that too.
If Sinead O'Connor was still with us, and 150KTubs referred to her comment to him about the God/Hoodie stuff as often as he has in his public utterances, I'd imagine she'd think it a tad creepy at this stage.
Well if she was still alive then he could never utter the line, because I'm in no doubt it was ever said by her.
I'm willing to be proved wrong on this but my guess is the podcast will be a sort of Desert Island Books where the guests do all the reading, analysis and work in general but Tubridy takes a large amount of the payment.
I'm not expecting a revolutionary approach from him where he reads a couple books a week and does a thorough analysis of them. But he might actually surprise us this time.
The height of Tubridys literary skills is reading the summary blurb at the back of a book....
The guy is just a book bluffer.......
Reading a book equivalent to the Guinness Book of records changed his life....
A complete spoofer....

Why should Bobson be reported? His trolling is mild and a welcome antidote to some of the speculation posted here.
you can always put him on ignore
I enjoy his posts, even though I don't agree with much of what he says.
Is Tubbelino back on the wireless waves today?? My 10am call has been cancelled, so might listen to the opening link today to see how the week off has refreshed and reinvigorated him… and I wonder how long before he mentions his new podcast..
He is back and refreshed, thanking Steve for standing in. Martin King does not get a mention...
Jim Gavin? No chance.!
Also, that list needs far more people with terminal illnesses to have any chance of stirring Tubs' interest
S
Opinion is one thing, saying they're a fan of Tubs is grand, but attacking other posters with differing opinions with personal slurs is against the forum rules. I've reported this aspect of those posts, but it seems Bobson probably has some personal pass with the admins.
Intruiging insight into the mind of Bobson Dugnutt....
Fascinating....
I find it fascinating that they self report only spending 45 mins a day casual interneting, so maybe their time on Boards is work related.
I agree with you that posters should avoid personal slurs. Perhaps any such slurs were an overreaction to unsubstantiated suggestions that Bobson was paid by Noel Kelly to post favourably about the DLB.
not to mention:
- all the bishops/archbishops
All the politicians
Ml o Leary
All the journalists
Newspaper editors. all the TV /radio presenters
All the TV/ radio programme researchers. all those GAA followers who could talk for Ireland - especially when they win a match
All the singer / songwriters
Sure with all of these he would have enough to interview re reviewing books to seeeeeeeee himself out!
To be honest, B, I think some users don’t know what “personal” means and take general descriptors personally.
