Benjamin Franklin was a former President Of The United States, says our resident American Politics expert.

Was this mentioned already this week

Why bother asking him any questions? Just give him the prize for getting through.

Late late show

Late late show

he reminds me of the guy who I saw in a supermarket with his partner once, who when she passed him a tin of beans, the penny finally dropped when he discovered that this was the source of his favourite food

(16th April) A good few songs were played in this show. Ryan was getting into the Friday feeling.

Treat people with Kindness (Harry Styles)




You got it (Roy Orbision)




That was the vibe created.


There was build up about Michael D’s appearance on ‘The Late Late Show’. He went out to Áras. There is new dog called Misneach to keep Bród and the Higgins’ company.

There was a mention of a few funny stories. One of them was William Amos an MP from Canada in the house of commons was caught changing his clothes on a zoom call.

Another was the story of a woman (in heat?) who traveled from the Wirral to Liverpool breaking covid19 rules to look for ‘fit fellas’

The interview guest was a person named Ashlee Caserley. A woman from Mullingar who moved to America 20 years ago. I had no idea where it was going. She got her degree in Archaeology and Greek and Roman Civilisation in Ireland and went back to the US following her JI.

I still had no idea where it was going. Finally we are told Casserley is an Estate Agent (Broker) now

And became involved in a programme called ‘Zombie House Flipping’ in Florida

Apparently the Real Estate market is flying in Florida.

I enjoyed this morning's show it was kept nice as light as far as possible.
Yer man (Sean) at end of the show was fairly hopeless at the 'Ben' themed quiz for a holiday break. Worth listening to it if you haven't.

The best bit of the quiz was the very last bit - 'Knowing me know you' (Alan Partridge twist) was played Tubridy's production team was trolling him apparently as Tubridy does not like Abba. Plus there was the Partridge reference.

Anyway, Sean the man on the quiz - his confidence was shattered at that stage. As Tubridy had already literally told him every answer. With massive hints and Sean was still getting it wrong.

For example - Tubridy's hint was what is the opposite to Queen? As Sean was asked to name who sang' Stand by Me' - (answer was Ben King)

"Princess?" says Sean. Tubridy was holding back the laughing at that point.

Sean was then asked the (final question as Tubridy had ran out of time)

Tubridy: "can you name the band who sang that song 'Knowing me know you' ?"

Sean: 'Linda Martin?'

He was given the prize nonetheless!

I’ve issued legal proceedings challenging the result of yesterday’s quiz

Three questions just didn't suit him as Larry would say.

Have you noticed he regularly says 'We're open for business ".
As if the following content was something of profound significance. And he the vehicle for that. I just think it's a little selfregarding.

And that’s the entire show “filled”

Was he doing his expert literary analysis again this morning?

"I like this book because it makes you feel like you're in [location of where book is set]"

Programme should be sponsored by Tayto

I felt the author was taking the p1ss a little bit the way he delivered the "entitled south Dublin" meme to Ryan, he was describing the host to himself whilst making light of it. I must listen back later as I caught it in passing.

I thought that as well. And the Ryan joined in making fun of the lack of awareness in some people from South Dublin.

People in glass houses.. Ryan.

WTF is he on about?
