  • Drivel

    Bringing what is laughingly referred to as journalism from the tabloids to the podcast medium this is as bad as it gets.

    If you’ve had half of your brain removed you just might enjoy this nonsense nut I doubt it.

  • Very poor or recent weeks you would think there was no news in Ireland

    I used to love this podcast with high hitting cases. Up to date news on court. But recently it’s all q&a book reviews and going over old cases they covered again. Seems like an advert for something.

  • Nicknames

    Enjoy the pod but two things are spoiling it. The increase in ads and the CONSTANT use of the criminals nicknames.

    We know Hutch is ‘The Monk’, Thomas Kavanagh is ‘bomber’ and Kevin Carrol is ‘gerbil’.

    We don’t need to keep hearing their nicknames to know who they are.

    I can’t bring myself to listen to the new pod on ‘Bomber’ …
