He's related to Todd Andrews - railway enthusiast - that's enough for me.

The same Todd Andrews who wanted RTE to get rid of Gay Byrne.

Turgidy sinking beneath a tsunami of his own hubris, the vaunted transition to UK radio has resulted in a stale parody of Norwich radio's finest. Ill-prepared, profoundly ignorant and flailing about in deep waters of the open market. A mere anodyne chancer far removed from the carefully cultivated image of RTÉ indispensable stalwart. The €150,000 repayment a casual afterthought, in fairness a drop in the ocean compared to >€700,000 p/a salary at his "zenith". Then you have Kafka's grand nephew on the other platform (I'm not a fan but ultimately I am transparent schtick) succumbing to cognitive dissonance in order to justify Turgidy's disastrous venture, an erstwhile small fish in a large pond foundering horribly ("moving on") equates to resounding success apparently. Tragically inept is our Turgidy, as are his persistent disingenuous advocates.

No offence but I've read more coherent suicide notes than that post.

Bucky's hot take is that Berties_Horse needs to step away from the sherry

I liked what Berties_Horse wrote.

It would be awful if Tubridy came back to RTE.
I couldn't listen to his 1 hour radio show.
The first 20 minutes of his review of the paper was the worst. At least the second part had a guest so you only had to listen to him half the time and the money he was on.
How did he get to earn so much?

I get most of what Berties horse wrote here, apart from "Then you have Kafka's grand nephew on the other platform" bit . . Who's that referring to?

Bucky's hot take is that he likes what WokeHogan posts. His viewpoint makes a refreshing change from the half a dozen angry Boomers who dominate this site. Bucky hopes that in the future you will post more.

Bucky is saddened that despite his assurances that Bucky is not a bot some disgruntled Boomers prefer to believe otherwise. Bucky hopes that these posters can get beyond this misguided belief.

Franz Kafka wrote bizarre, nightmarish works for which he has become famous.

"Taking a break", apparently.

A podcast than no-one will ever listen to is surely in the offing.
