Starting tomorrow 30 June 2025, PBH will start his audition for a permanent position to manage the RTE Switch Board.

According to reports there are 5 talent in contention for the job, all existing RTE employees or with dubious contractor status:

Katie Hannon: Stood in so much she has a free pass into the final selection, Representing North Kerry, currently wandering the corridors, RTE Staff.
Philip Boucher-Hayes: Representing Kildare, currently presents Countrywide, managed by Lisa Richards https://www.lisarichardsagency.com/corporate/philip-boucher-hayes/
Colm O’Mongáin: Also Representing Kildare, currently presents Saturday, RTE Staff.
Sarah McInerney: Representing Galway, currently presents Drive Time, managed by Storied https://www.storied.ie/talent/sarah-mcinerney
Cormac Ó hEadhra: Also representing Galway, currently presents Drive Time, RTE Staff/NKM (Not publicly listed)

A shootout between Kerry, Kildare and Galway.

Mods: I propose that we have a separate thread for each person who auditions for the job: https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2025/0612/1518163-rte-radio-presenter-call-out/

Now that would be a disaster……RTE need to get this right otherwise the afternoon schedule will collapse into a morass of tosh.

However… they have form in that regard folks.

Expunge

They couldn't seriously do all those weeks of "auditions" and then give to someone who wasn't auditioned.

Could they?

You don't have the NKM Montrose mindset mate 🫠

Cullum,

A donnybrook during the Holy Sacrifice, so to speak. A disgrace ~~Joe~~.

Thats shocking, just shocking...…well, not that shocking

'Not a busy junction, but a junction that can be busy'

Get to the fookin point !!

Dublin Calling

Head down in the phone. Disgraceful.

McDermotX

Hopefully Angela got told to fook off

Otherwise, I'm not sure why this warrants airtime

Dublin Calling

Collum, When you entrust your children to one of the countries top surgeons you don't expect them to put standard industrial steel strings in their back.

McDermotX

Angela, you do realise that manager and the wan involved are laughing their holes off at ya. Probably bouncing a kid or two off a wall while doing so

BPKS

I'm glad there is a legit reason she is acting like this.

I just thought she was being a busybody

Dublin Calling

Cullum the topic is finished. Why are you trying to stretch it out by retelling the callers story?

McDermotX

I'd be far more concerned about the people driving around with their heads in their phones TBH. At least the idiots walking around doing it are unlikely to cause a crash or smack into someone

McDermotX

Yes, I'm sure the customer wont be covering it in the end

In other news, the leccy prices going up. Somehow these companies, shops and services still manage to get by. Troopers all.

Dublin Calling

Cullum is doing more talking about topic than the caller.

Dublin Calling

5k a month for the electric. Are there doors on the fridges and the compressors outside?

Dublin Calling

Cullum knows who pays the RTE Salaries and is doing his best to protect them.

McDermotX

Yes, if there's one thing we need more of in every town around Ireland it's barber shops.

(And places where you can get your hair cut)

VAT Bad, better to give the money to the staff than the government or the Revenue.

Employers PRSI must be in the list of banned topics.

McDermotX

Tango till three

Fook this. Out.

DoctorEdgeWild

This is hilariously poor radio.

DoctorEdgeWild

It's a looonngg list. Anything within 10 square miles of a topic that might raise a single hair of an eyebrow is banned. Stick with waiting room chat FM.
