RTE Radio 1: The Ryan Tubridy Show

Odyssey 2005 · 21-01-2021 10:43am

Ryan trying the stupid Duffy puns

PieOhMy · 21-01-2021 10:44am

To think how many thousands of euro ryan got for this last hour would make you sick, especially when the incredible work of nurses and special needs teachers is being highlighted in the news recently.

You cant tell me that anymore than an hour tops went into the production of this effort today.
0 minutes prep for gibbering about the inauguration that he watched yesterday, 0 minutes for reading out "texts", 10 mins queuing up the poetry clips, 10mins planning out the worlds most boring interview and 10mins sorting out the freebies.

Odyssey 2005 · 21-01-2021 10:45am

Tubridy is holding the country together..

Who knew

PieOhMy · 21-01-2021 10:45am

Ryan being pulled off live on air! Amazing radio.

21-01-2021 10:45am

"You're doing a great job with LLS, a bit of sanity in the week, holding the national together"

Required statement to make during interview, caller, if you are to get on air on the RTS.

Ryan is so worth his wages.

KevRossi · 21-01-2021 10:51am

If anybody were to break through and ask about the wages, they'd be fobbed off as 'trolls and haters', which is RT's way of delaing with any form of criticism.

It sounds a bit like 'The Truman Show' where a couple of times people managed to breach the almost impenetrable wall of security around it.

That’s exactly how I felt last year at my father’s funeral.

Imagine Dee Forbes calling Tubridy and Duffy into a room and saying that to them.

21-01-2021 10:56am

It's a wonder, all the same, how a very occasional cynical guest troll hasn't got through at least once and given a little dig somewhere. Just never happens. Are these interviews edited or dispensed with altogether when such a matter comes up.

21-01-2021 10:58am

Will try to imagine standing in the shoes of a €500,000 earner.

I would say a lot of the caller's are friends or friends of friends of Rte employees.
Or are the type that have a picture of RT hanging in their living room.

This is the only person I personally know of who spoke on the show, as the widower of my late cousin.

Unlike D'Arcy, he can probably spell "Taoiseach" though.

bigroad · 21-01-2021 11:31am

Before I go for my next job position I must drop into NK management to negotiate my salary as he will be sure to get me ten times what I'm really worth.
The man is mirical worker.

I think you'll find you won't be of interest to him unless your job is in RTE or you're related to someone who works there.

Well, it's Noel she'd be talking to and that's where all RTE management for decades seem to wilt.

lol. The 2020 Toy Show is one of the top 5 Roald Dahl adaptions of all time, according to themselves. What a sickening organisation.

Don't forget he has some non RTE on his stable, but of course he is in a position to sell any of his wares to RTÉ.

I don't think that's a coincidence. I'd say it's a prerequisite that "callers" are checked out and instructed that the show just doesn't do debate.

as mentioned previously, if you enter a phone in competition you are vetted for your kindness level

Tubridy would take this job for 100k a year.

An hour of just chatting rubbish.

He’s already mentioned it several times this year, not the first mention by any means.

KevRossi · 21-01-2021 7:26pm

In the meantime let the misery continue!!!

On the LLS tomorrow night he interviews a woman whose husband died of COVID a mere 7 days ago.

And a woman who lost both her parents in the Stardust disaster (40th anniversary in a couple of weeks).

And also James Comey, former head of the FBI, who has of course, some sort of Irish heritage. Will he brush over the dirty side of Comey's work? He will indeed.

We will reach peak late late show when they finally get to switch off someone's life support on air or maybe a cctv feed from Dignitas.

When will RTE realise we can't take anymore of this sh..e on a so called entertainment show which it's not . Graham and Ross know what an entertaining show is.

Rte gets people talking about the toy show and the Mirror fills column space.

It's always The Mirror these days. He mentions them fairly regular as well

I'm just furious at this and really don't want to subject myself to watching this. What really annoys me is that I live alone, isolated for months in this wretched Covid, I should be able to enjoy LIVE entertainment TV from my national broadcaster to give myself a sense of immediate connection with the world, and not have constant grief and misery foisted upon me. I can't really escape, I can't go out anywhere, I can't meet people, it's dark out there, I'm seeing bad news all the time, I need cheering up. How bloody dare anyone tell me I should switch over and watch something else that's recorded. How dare any media person tell me how to improve my mental health when this is foisted onto the screen of my national tv station. RTÉ should be ashamed of themselves, and only those who have a vested interest could seriously defend it!

Exactly, it's called showbiz.

It's got stars, "celebrities", agents and all sorts of gossip and chit chat.

How people continue to be surprised at the existence of the merry little caravan amazes me.

Noel Kelly must know someone high up at The Mirror.

I agree completely, just like Operation Transformation, Ireland’s fittest families & the Style Counsellor’s, cheap exploitation fodder to feed the masses & make the so called host feel good for themselves!
In other, pure & utter ****e!

It’s Friday, so we are due to have a child “call in” for the competition.

Said child will be an avid reader, with a simply wonderful teacher. They will also have siblings who, when prompted by Tubridy, said child will say that they are annoying.

PieOhMy · 22-01-2021 10:21am

Interesting topic for the call today! Enjoyable listening!

Unfortunately it lasted less than 10 mins, then over 10min after reading out texts. It was good while it lasted.

Perhaps Tubs read Mick Heaney’s praise for him today, where he said 9-10 was a nice break from the miserable stories of the day.

Tubs said earlier that he found Morning Ireland very depressing this morning (I’m paraphrasing from memory).

ButtersSuki · 22-01-2021 10:26am

Seconds after being told that one of the reasons they sing is to mark their territory, Tubs asks

“Is one of the reasons they sing territorial?”

Not listening to the caller is a skill not just limited to Joe Duffy.

He said that it's always depressing and that it can be hard to listen to. MI has to lead with the news, good or bad. And that his show aims to cheer people up agter MI.

But Tubridy chooses to have illness and death as part of his radio and TV show, he actively drags both programmes in that direction, it is his choice.

The irony of what he said was totally lost on him.

TheHomeService · 22-01-2021 10:54am

What a coincidence. The random child who “called in” for the quiz just happened to have met Joe Biden!!!!
