He is the worst host of a show I have ever seen. He literally can't speak. 

He laughs when people are sick and then has empathy at a light moment. His timing is terrible and he's just an all round shocking person.

The only time I would leave him on is for the Toy Show and that says it all.

He really doesn't.

Hes a terrible 'interviewer' whoever it is he is interviewing. He just doesn't let people speak, hes forever talking over his guests. He asks a question lets them start to speak and then immediately interrupts with another question or tries to answer the question for them by finishing their sentences, more often than not getting what they were trying to say arseways.

A good interviewer does his home work on his guests and topics, asks the questions that want to be heard and should know when and when not to speak.

Its like a bad ref that just doesn't let a game flow, blowing up for anything anything and getting decision after decision wrong.

He should never be in the position he is earning that kind of cash, hes a semi decent radio presenter at best riding the RTE gravy train.

When the conversation is always about the presenter, and not the content, you know you have a problem.

He is really cringe and has so little rapport with guests.

his grandfather was todd andrews, one of the early dons at rte television and a blue blood fianna fáiler. nuff said.


Oh I know but still like. It is still hard to see anyone saying "jesus wouldn't that lad be perfect for TV talk shows"
with you on that. Bad enough with him getting the gig but to be still in it 15 odd years later is perplexing.

The thing I see with Tubridy is that he is tries way too hard.  He laughs at all his guests jokes in a sycophantic way.  Gay Byrne would sit there and almost have this demeanor where the guests had to impress him and had this sort of smirk and cynicism but would also laugh if warranted.

He isn't as natural as Gaybo or any legendary tv personalities.

When he finished the interview with current players and management he says "Go forth and be brilliant, one and all." Who even talks like that? 

He asked Dara O'Shea two questions- a fairly thin one about his gaelic background that couldn't draw any insight really and a second one about what he makes of Stephen Kenny. So strange. 

Anyway, Bazunu is forty years of age. I still gleaned that. What a mature, solid and intelligent man. 

The line about being up in Dundalk and the locals raving about Kenny....





Dreadful that was too. Puke emoji...
