RTE: Radio, Telefis, Empty pockets

[Crankycorner]

We moved into this house in 2006, a few days later there was a knock on the door.

A guy looking to see the TV licence

I said what ?
2 minutes please, went and asked herself and she said oh that's on direct debit.

I got back to the door and your man had this gotcha expression, I said that ah we pay that on direct debit.
His facial expression changed and off he went on his way.

Now eventhough we pay it by direct debit, it may be a temporary get out of jail card for some of you.

I got caught for the tv licence a few years ago after 15 years not paying it. Was given a week to pay. Most infuriatingly the inspector was lovely. Couldn’t have met a nicer fella. The cunt.

No you can't see it, I don't have a TV. End of.

What does the departure of key presenters mean for 2FM?

RTÉ 2FM has announced that the 'Drive it with the 2 Johnnies' show will finish at the end of the month.

Part of the press release from RTE mentions a show presented by a man WHO DIED FOURTEEN YEARS AGO

And Brian Warfield is suing RTE over the abuse Joe Duffy gave him.

New rules mean you need approval for side gigs.

The 2 Johnnies are obscenely unexplainably popular spotify gave them a ball of cash to go exclusive

Garrihy's has loads of insta followers so can prop up her Podcast.

I don't know about zamperelli but I would guess if your side gig is any way lucritive you may as well ditch the RTE gig

 

[The Lord of the Funk]

BBC/ITV/ UK and US stations are excited with all these "talented" free agents on the market......maybe not

They're offering way less in contracts apparently (Doireanns and JZ were coming up) too, and RTE are finally finding out influencers/ social media "Stars" arent as popular as they thought

2 Johnnies will be fine despite the dopey bogger crap

Garrity is woeful and a nepo baby from a rich family who pay for her followers and hocks anything for a freebie, she's trying the UK market which i will guess will be a spectacular failure...maybe an extra in the next Planet of the Ape movie

Zamperelli has a beauty/hair salon and probably will get a deal from a sex toy company from listening to her show, it was non stop sex talk

Save them money, just only have a newsreader/someone to press play on the songs and thats it

Tuned into the 2 johnnies and they were doing shout outs to people doing silage.

I like the tunes though.

Glad I won’t have to hear Zeffirelli or whatever again.

Bring back Larry Gogan…oh!
