You can hear Beat 102 in Wicklow
Occasionally you can hear Neil Prenderville beating off on a Dublin bound Aer Lingus flight from London, cumming from a seat right next to you. It’s ok though, apparently a few panadols for back pain after a half pint of larger will do that to you. judgmental pr*ck more righteous than ever.
It was nurofen,ya dick,excuse the pun.And his name is niall
As he said: I’m in shock, you know, I really am. I took some Nurofen Plus alright, I know that, for my neck.’
Lol. You’d need some neck to dish out the hate that that guy does
And Wexford
Ray D’arcy is shyt . That’s enough for me.
I gave up listening to Irish radio, too many altered egos, and Sony tripe, squeaky boys & girls trying to sing, Irish bands are at the lowest ebb of nothingness. I go on line now. No adverts, no verbal vomit, just good music.
Give Neill a break I think he went through enough embarrassment it’s in the past

Fin-tastic… Flipping good??? There’s something fishy about the scores here…. They’re a bit Radio-gaga
I am a clever cat at 7 out if 10. Not really. Most were guesses
Irish radio is almost as bad as Irish television. Only joking it’s much, much worse.
Irish radio is dead if you’re older than 55. And chat radio, sucks, ugh!
3/10. I watch too much TV
Think Irish radio is bad, who has listened to BBC. BBC Radio 1, egotistical. BBC 2 apart from Saturday’s I don’t know who it’s aimed at. BBC3, bad classical. And BBC 4 clears insomnia. Also I can’t understand why most stations have two presenters, one being a comedian and the other a straight guy, neither great entertainers.
Since when has Neil Prenderville moved ? I would have scored 8 if he was still at 96fm
Neill moved ages ago but a little too quickly for some of the air hostesses.
Off the Ball each evening on Newstalk, football show at 9pm each night, can’t ask for more than that… I also like Sean Moncriff, whenever I get a chance to listen to him..
I like Lyric fm in the car except between 7am and 10am on weekdays!
8/10. Mostly guesses. Only took the quiz to avoid starting the day – I am more asleep than awake :-)
have your say
