  • You know

    Please please please ask guests to refrain from using ‘you know’ every second word. It’s becoming impossible to listen to the programme recently because it’s so irritating.

  • Quality lacking/libel obsessed

    Brendan has proven to be an unworthy successor to the late great Marian Finucane. He constantly limits, edits, censors, qualifies, and negates what his guests and panellists are saying. The ghost of the Panti interview looms large in his head. Pity. I’ve switched to Anton on Newstalk: so much more refreshing.

  • Enjoy the show

    I do like Brendan’s out look! 👍👍👍 but my god, this show has got more woke by the week. Brenda use to be a comedian…. I remember some of the things he said in the past (which is fine) but he would hang himself with his standards today. 🤔
