    Last week Michael Cahill: "The world cant have enough Phil Collins songs."

    This week Neil Doherty: first track, Phil Collins (via Genesis).

    Ronan cant come back quickly enough.

    What!!!

    Have you a “roundy birthday” coming up?

    That's for sure.

    No chance of the lads playing a snippet of Music Box Dancer before the news.

    Probably never heard of Frank Mills .

    Although I'm not a fan of some of Ronan Collins stand in presenters.

    But at least lately, RTE have been sensible financially and are using Permanent RTE Staff Presenters, not just celebrities like una healy and imelda may, which I'm sure would cost a fortune, per show.

    ...and yes I know Ronan himself is not RTE Permanent Staff.

      Is Neil getting a backhander off Joe Duffy?

      He must have mentioned him about 10 times now.

      Neil, you need to wash your hands of Joe.

      I got the impression when he mentioning near the start it was two in a row in the slot after Joe not that it was two in a row directly after Joe

      Never mind that. I can't wait for the moment when they wheel out Bruce's birthday cake. You wouldn't mind except it's not even a roundy one today :rolleyes:

      dont forget he'll play a song from the mamma mia soundtracks

      He is currently playing a song from Mamma Mia 2...sounds like one of those "Stars on 45" or "Minipops" covers from the early 80s.

      As a longtime Bruce fan, I will cut him some slack for playing We Take Care Of Our Own and The Promised Land, songs that we rarely or never hear on Radio.

      Thanks for the last two hours, Claire Byrne.

      I'm sure she was well paid for it, Neil.

      First plug for Joe Duffy's promo.

      Since when did a "shout out" replace playing a request? Can we not just keep it old school...at least on this show.

      Neil reminds me of the guy or a younger friend you might know....who you talk with about music/radio, to the lay man they would come across as knowing his stuff .......but is really a bluffer.

      If Neil was not a resercher on Ray Darcy show...he would not be on the radio presenting his own shows or filling in for Ronan Collins.

      Didn't know he was a researcher on the farcy show. That explains a lot...
