    I always listen between about 8:30am and 10am. Show is the best thing on by far. Wish it was still an afternoon show though as I would be able to listen to it all.

    I see 98 have finally changed their fill-in policy; Claire Solan was covering Foley on Friday. Makes more sense than when they got Barry Dunne to do it and had Solan cover his show.

    Aw. :(

    I was hoping they'd just forgotten to put up Friday's podcast and I'd be in for a double dose on Monday....

    *sigh*

    Nope Clare solan mentioned she was filling in Friday as the lads were off due to a wedding which I know ray is going to but they didn't mention whether JP,was going. Denno wasn't invited.

    Clare back covering for the show she actually hosted a few months back, how odd.

    Good podcast only bit today I felt. Good podcast emails which were actually funny and witty unlike some of the ones that aren't great.

    Something from one of the podcasts that they're attempting to turn into a catchphrase. It's so ridiculously stupid that it ends up making me laugh.

    I lost the earphones for my crappy phone (which has a smaller jack than usual so can't use regular earphones) so I haven't been able to listen to the show on my way to work this past week :( I miss it.

    Foley actually mentioned 'bring back Aidan & Claire' during his 'texts from the Devil' gag the other morning... bit awkward when she's now his cover but how and ever....

    Jayo this morning: "We have a text here from Savannah in Kilnamanagh. She says, Jayo, I'd muuurder a cigarette now. I tried giving them up before using the patches, but I was still dying for a cigarette. I could only see out of one eye too.. going around like Gabrielle I was." :D

    He had another good one but I forget it

    Good long podcast only bit where they rang Claire solan during her covering for young dunne.

    Also I get the impression while he is mostly joking about the iTunes mess there is slight bit of needle there.

    Fair dues to the €5,000 winner.. was sure they wouldn't give it due to the slight inaccuracy on the Taylor Swift song.

    Only finished listening to yesterday's podcast and was that kid singing over two ad breaks ? Or was it just the gaps in the podcast ? And two digs at darcy yesterday. Was it me or did they not seem to be friends when they on today fm ? Couldn't see them going for pints. Or in foleys case a gin and tonic.

    Haven't listened to yesterday's podcast yet, but IIRC on Friday he was giving a right dig at D'Arcy saying "I'll have you know I always found him to be approacable, friendly..." etc, etc. :P

    I don't think they hate D'Arcy as such, I think they know he is easy to wind up. They also used to have digs at how much TodayFM used to put into the D'Arcy Show and how many staff it had, maybe Foley couldn't get the same? I've heard that they've never got on with Wil Hanafin.

    I dont think they hate each other, they just arent exactly friends. Remember one time on D'Arcy someone said the love the show bit. D'Arcy didnt seem impressed "yeah, yeah, wrong show." Or something like that. It sounded like a joke from the caller but D'Arcy wasnt impressed. That gave me the idea that they dont exactly like each other all that much.

    Have to say I wasn't too gone on Philip Egan at the start, partially due to the fact that Adrian Barry was so great on the show.

    But he's come out his shell a lot, and can be very witty.

    Loved them on about how women in cars look at him like a criminal (primarily due to impressions from a shaved head) who's about to rob their car, and they lock their door, and that he can't even drive..

    "If there was a kid in the car. Listen.. between the two of us, you reckon we could get things started?"

    i think the problem at the start was that he wouldn't or wasn't given the chance to chatback after doing his bulletin . I do think them times are the best part of the show where they all have the shíts and giggles... then again it's all fun and games until someone giggles and shíts

    Yeah at the beginning they used to just mention that Deano was with them after the bulletin. You can imagine though that they were probably really missing Adrian, as he was excellent. It takes time to get to know how another person works, like every other life situation.

    Agree though, Phil is starting to come out of his shell, and while he isn't as witty as Adrian was, he's very likeable and they all work well together. Himself and Deano in particular.

    I only catch about an hour on and off of the show (dozing for the first part) but it is still the one that gives me a couple of proper laughs every morning, without fail so far.

    As a result, I get some Dermot and Dave in the evening, which I also get a good laugh from. Both are similar, but different shows if ya know what I mean.

    Yeah love D&D. I switched it on 1 day to the folks in work and they just didn't get the humour of them. Couldn't understand it why not. Do people think they are like marmite?

    Agree on Phil. Really starting to add to the show and I think he's a likable guy. The links out of the half past news are really some of the best they're doing, just them chatting and messing around. It'd be cool if Deeno could do her bulletins from the same studio instead of "The Dublin News Centre" (:rolleyes:) but I guess we can't have everything.

    The Anglo tapes sketch they did earlier in the week was very funny too. :)

    I hate when that happens. Did the same to a few mates with Hamish and Andy before and it just went down like a lead balloon. So I made new, funnier friends instead.

    They addressed the iTunes issues as they got emails from people saying no podcasts when there were podcasts available. The system to get the podcasts up on itunes is linked to the 98fm site/app or something I don't know.

    I remember those e-mails but never had issues with my iTunes before today..

    .. I think Suze, Shelley or Pat Balfe may have just slipped up and forgot to issue it on the feed.

    I thought the issue with the podcasts was that people were still subscribed to the old Today FM feed? Ray thought it was supposed to carry on but it didn't or something...

    98FM is currently looking for a Producer for The Ray Foley Show.

    Are you a forward planner with attention to detail, have a good sense of humour & a potty mouth, are brimming with ideas, and want to hear your ideas on the radio?

    Think you have what it takes to be part of Dublin’s newest breakfast show?

    Send us on your CV, any relevant audio and your thoughts on the show to:

    producerjob@98fm.com

    Knowledge of Cool Edit/Adobe Audition is an advantage, but not essential. Personal hygiene is a bonus!

    Closing date for applications is Friday July 12th.

    I'm not sure if that is a new position, or if someone is leaving the production team? I don't get to hear much of the new show, but it sounded like they are settling in well recently.

    Maybe Producer Dave is leaving? He also runs a website and does bits for other stations so might do that full time?
    FunkyFoneBoyAl used to produce a previous breakfast show on the station but now works with Joe.ie so the long awaited reunion might not happen yet
