    Caught the last few minutes there, like some child that's wound up that lad. Heaven knows what he was like for the rest of the programme

    He’s a bit obsessed with hairdressers and box dye and the “awful damage” it does to the hair. I must have the most damaged hair in the history of humanity as I’ve been using “box-dye” since my hair turned from blond to dull mousy aged 14, and I’m now 59.

    Does he not realise that the chemicals used by the hairdresser are exactly the same as those available in various brands of “box dyes”. The hairdresser mixes it to a particular predictable colour they think will suit your hair, and yes it works out well. But it is very very expense keeping up colour maintenance by a hairdresser and with a bit of experimentation you can achieve exactly the colour you want. What’s more I find it fun trying different shades. The only thing that people might find trick it re-touching toots. I just pour the stuff over my head and nothing terrible has happened yet!

    ...With Ryan I get the sense more that he is telling you what you should be thinking, it doesn’t come across well at all.

    It's the "be like me" hour.

    As in: read as much as I do. Hate social media as much as I do. Enjoy lightweight Trump bashing as much as I do. etc, etc, etc.

    Again, it's all about the preaching.

    Why bother going to the effort of informing yourself when the real aim is to virtue signal about 'supporting local business'. We should all be as concerned as he is about the poor aul hairdressers.

    "I hope they earn a fortune" he says.

    I wonder would it ease his pain if I sent him a handwritten letter to tell him about how the hairdresser who lives on my street has been raking it in the last few weeks in cash-in-hand jobs. :D

    I missed everything from "the pint thing" to "Paki-bells Canon" as I was on a call. Has it been wall to wall death?

    He mentioned the zipping sound of a body bag closing at one point.

    25 minutes of the usual preaching with the patronizing tone of a 3rd class teacher.

    Despite myself, I listened to Ryan this morning in the car on the way back from the weekly shop (sad, I know)

    I had a light bulb moment (which many of you will have had already - I’m just late to the party...). It was, “why do I find the show (and, indeed, Ray’s) so hard to listen to. My answer is....

    The monologue.

    For whatever reason, they both start the show with a fifteen minute meander over the papers, their opinion on (please insert an incredibly oblique and off-piste subject here, with some tenuous association with some in-the-moment issue); what they read/saw/ate/encountered whilst shopping/riding their bicycle/ were talking to their offspring - you get the drift...

    In the real world, when we meet up with someone, whether casually, unexpectedly or deliberately, we have a dialogue with them. We don’t sit there for fifteen minutes with our receiver on and our transmitter off.

    So, the “exchange” we don’t have with Ryan (and Ray) means the whole thing is a falsity.

    And that’s why I have stopped listening

    It's essentially this:

    Another article in the mirror today.

    https://www.irishmirror.ie/showbiz/irish-showbiz/ryan-tubridy-delighted-haircut-says-22277294

    The usual gibberish but have new levels been reached?

    "I think the most important thing today is to say to people is enjoy that first hug that you haven't had for a long long time.
    "You are like warriors in the desert who have not had a glass of water for months and this hug is your glass of water.
    These houses that you're going to and the family and friends that you're going to meet, they're your oasis, you've got there."

    Hilary Clinton. FFS.
    Tubs doing various accents.
    Now claiming the Tubridy's are the only people in Ireland to have seen "Johnny Dangerous". He's probably technically correct, because the movie he's referring to is actually called "Johnny Dangerously". So he can't even get the title of one of his supposed favourite movies correct.

    No plans to head to the pub? Yesterday he was saying he "going to try the pint thing" in a pub.

    NK and Co. are really busy during COVID to be fair, pumping out such waffle can't be easy.

    A little cheese! Bryan fancies some "fromage" so he plays Backstreet Boys. Well I guess The Beatles were a boyband too so at least he's consistent.

    Champion of the people, sympathising with pilots and hairdressers and all who had to take pay cuts.


    He should take one himself just as an expression of solidarity.

    I said back in March the likes of Tubs, D'Arcy, and Mr. Duffy should donate their outrageous fees to some COVID-related charity or to support frontliners or the purchase of PPE etc. but alas it fell on deaf - but wealthy - ears. I always love it when millionaires tell me how to spend my money.
    Don't forget though, Bryan is a brave survivor of "the thing".

    See, that comment isn't even about the programme. It's a hatred and jealousy for a man that in your eyes, makes easy money.

    How is it "easy" for Tubs?

    Surely somebody scraping through on minimum wage would also prefer health over wealth.

    I'm pretty sure we'd all prefer to be cancer free rather than have a million in the bank. Easy for me also.

    I'm out.
