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.
Rose is an idiot. Seriously, every Tubs post is filled with "Oh, you're so great Ryan"-type comments. Who are these people? Do they actually exist?
those sycophantic (obviously fake) comments emanate from puppet accounts run by NK management - part of the overall package Tubs pays for.
Still roaming around.
since when do people ‘jet’ into Galway?
Wasn’t the airport closed a long time ago?
unless of course Bryan used some of his substantial wealth to hire a helicopter with a jet engine on it to fly him into his little bolt hole so he didn’t have to share the roads with us mere mortal plebs.
a helicopter with a jet attached would crash to the ground. Which maybe is an appropriate metaphor for his current career situation
I wouldn't be surprised. The Abbeyglen provides a helicopter service.
He's sold himself for years as the old fogey who eskews social media as it's full of nasty people who say mean things. Ryan prefers to live in the moment, in the now. All that self promotion and narcissism is just, not very Irish quite frankly.
"Who'd want to walk around with a selfie stick, continously gurning up to a camera 2 feet above their head?" *
* Ryan Tubridy, last year. Probably.
In all honesty the only tv program I can imagine him getting near is something like a host helping people sell their attic clutter at auction.
As a broadcasting anachronism he be perfectly suited to helping separate their past from the present.
It could be called the Ryan Pile.
This thread is about tubs. You need your thread to talk about your own circumstances.
If that the world as you know it, then fine.
What is one of the main definitions of projection? Repeating the same insults daily/weekly to others, when all the time they are inspired by your own situation, isnt that it?
Came across this on YouTube, nothing to do with Tubridy of course and I did not watch the video but the title struck me and the general image is reminiscent to so a lot of Ryan's current Instagrams. But look anyway, I hope he's not out there in Connemara on his todd.
The second series, so partridge 😀
Cant wait for the box set in Eason's!
Wonder did Bridie, Bernie, Mary & Ann also comment?
Milton Bradley - Board Games Red Herring!
Indira Varma and Fran Walsh
Indira Booma 🙂
My Virgin Radio UK listeners, I love you 💚
I suspect that the feeling may not be mutual.
it’s telling that RT is visiting very remote, desolate places with no significant levels of inhabitants.
Recent unpleasant experiences (the Taylor concert for example) made him wince and think twice about being seen/circulating in built up areas -
borderline unsafe for him to be seen in crowded streets - such is the anger and derision.
sure he’s so very popular he wants a break from the throngs of adoring fans.
hahah - Tubsmania indeed!!
Perhaps he'll finally focus on his UK radio audience after broadly ignoring them so far.
The problem with being a groomed RTE "star" is not being able to bear public feedback after decades of inhouse hype that inflated and protected his sense of life and no doubt fueled his indignation at the PAC hearings and the later public communique that finally severed his RTE oxygen.
There's something of a Truman Show quality about his institutionalized adult life. A barren valley in the whest on a sunny day is probably as close as he might feel comfortable in the open air in Ireland.
I'm sure he's looking to make up for the one he lost. Didn't he have "Ryan Tubridy's Australia" agreed with RTÉ before the "unpleasantness?"
I'm still laughing at Rose's comment. Man posts holiday photo on social media: "You deserve a travel programme!" Such a dramatic escalation. I hope he doesn't post any pictures on a golf course, she'll be begging him to join the PGA Tour and telling him he'll be the 2025 Masters champion.
A travel program really isn't feasible as he's too famous to visit anywhere without his global fans thronging him.
At least someone is getting a laugh out of such grim circumstances
Back in London, not looking too happy.
super work, thanks for the update. Can always rely on you
No problem, anytime.
same time again tonight please, that hour you spend rage googling before hitting the hay always delivers
