    This was on when I got home as I left the radio on in the house when I went to work this morning and I was busy changing clothes, boiling a kettle etc and became aware of a persistent wearying drone I can't recall what he was going on about but whatever it was it seemed to be depressing him greatly. What ails him? and why is he ailing the public?

    Stay on topic, discuss the programme content, and there won't be a problem.

    Trying to have a dig at moderation, however obscure you think you're being, is contrary to the charter. This is a warning, and applies also to subsequent posts.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,732 ✭✭✭BarryD2


    Buzzkill. But Ray continues on his anti alcohol rants. I think someone should tell him that brewing and drinking alcohol has been around for millennia.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    what Irish TV chat show host does Partridge remind you of?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 665 ✭✭✭Michael joseph


    right Ray, lets see how much you're going to donate

    nothing it seems, I was sure he was going to throw a few quid at it there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,543 ✭✭✭goochy


    Ray ashamed yet again to be a man - no fear of Ray challenging her - he would be ****ting himself driving home to Jenny


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,420 ✭✭✭✭sligojoek


    Some bloke texted in saying men suffer from stress too. More or less told to "Butt out. This is womens talk".

    I love how how felt the need to explain all the AP gags for us as if we're all eejits and he's the intellectual who got them.

    Nuacht at 3.59. That's a turn up for the book


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,543 ✭✭✭goochy


    didnt find Steve Coogan thing funny - rarely do - Ray seemed to think it was gas


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,732 ✭✭✭BarryD2


    Ray touching on another of his public health touchstones today - the evils of gambling.

    He can fill a week of them these days: evils of drink, evils of gamblin, evils of the fags, The Church, running, vaccinations and eating your porridge & greens :)

    He plays 2 songs at the same time and blames the producer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 860 ✭✭✭amlinopta


    He was incredibly unprofessional regarding Cheltenham coverage last week, especially on the Tuesday. Fair enough if he has issues with gambling but the way he dealt with it in terms of the handover to the commentators etc was uncalled for and must have irked the powers that be. Whether Ray likes it or not, Cheltenham is a big event and RTE pay a lot of money to cover it.

    Missed that do you have a link of the handover ?

    saw Brendan o connor on cutting edge last night - RTE must be regretting replacing him with Ray - the tv show is finishing early this season - Brendan must be both annoyed and laughing that it hasnt worked out for Ray on tv - wouldnt imagine they are buddies


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,420 ✭✭✭✭sligojoek


    Brendan used to be good crack but he's gone as "Woke" as the rest of them now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,543 ✭✭✭goochy


    i agree to a point but hes still not as bad as the rest - see an interview at weekend he did in The Sun of all places !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,420 ✭✭✭✭sligojoek


    "An irishman named Brendan Martin".

    No Ray, it was Martin Brennan.

    O' Connors show on Sat night was utter crap. So they took him off that show and gave him a mid week show which is equally crap.

    Ah here, you cant be expecting Godlike Ray to actually do research can you? He's only on half a million a year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,226 ✭✭✭✭BPKS


    I had to laugh the other day, on my twitter feed a tweet popped up from Will Hanafin with the video of the "Partridge look-a-like" rebel songs from This Time the other night.

    Janny Kelly replied a few times with crying laughing emojis etc.

    I couldnt help but smile - do they realise that one of them is married to our very own Partridge and the other one is his producer?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    What an exciting life that man leads

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,543 ✭✭✭goochy

    He did actually. Said he had a special interest on account of having worked with Mairead. I think he said he voted for her.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,988 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    Cue some new job bring created for Mairead now on Rte, cos she's such a top celeb.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,138 ✭✭✭Uncharted


    16 eh's and em's in the first 5 minutes.

    I actually counted. (Sad i know )

    This guy is employed as a broadcaster and sounds like an imbecile.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,331 ✭✭✭jeremyj1968


    I tell you what's important Ray, you keeping your nose out of other people's f**king business. Do what you want with your own organs, and let people decide what they want to do with theirs. And I wouldn't listen to anything that mealy mouthed self promoter Mark Daly has to say.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    Have we the option not to donate our organs Ray?

    That's an interesting app. First intelligent thing he's come up with in years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,420 ✭✭✭✭sligojoek


    Radio for insomniacs, literally.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,800 ✭✭✭tretorn


    At least he can pronounce insomnia, not like Ciara Kelly, she says IN SOM, then raises voice, KNEE AA.

    I think she may have had this expert on today, she had a topic on insomnia but once I heard her horrid voice I turned her off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,420 ✭✭✭✭sligojoek


    More misery. I'm out.
