Radio killed the Bloggio star

Posted on | March 2, 2007 | 35 Comments

So I was on the Rick O’Shea show last night. He emailed me during the week and asked me if I’d talk about the Blog Awards. I said ‘Ok’.

Sinead and Blogorrah were on too. Sadly there wasn’t a huge amount of time to talk about anything and then Swearing Lady (still can’t see your site, NTL are a pack of useless cunts) left a comment which noted that the song previous to my lengthy, in-depth interview was Amy fucking Winehouse and the song immediately afterwards was Damien cunting Rice.

And O’Shea thinks, if I go to the awards tomorrow night, that a glass of Um Bongo will make things right, does he? It’s like asking a vegetarian to dinner then telling them they have to club their own baby seal for the starter and pick out a shackled calf for their veal main course. It’s like inviting an Israeli and serving him pork chops. It’s like inviting Jamie Bulger’s mother and sitting her beside Thomson and Venables.

The gauntlet has been laid down.

    You couldn’t give us an idea of what point in the show you were on? I’m trawling through and have already heard snippets of Steven Gately and Jamariquoi, and I’m not sure it’s worth it…

    Good luck at the awards ya kranky auld fecker. I hope you have picked out a nice frock and have been practicing your blubbing for the cameras. If you st-st-stammer a little during your speech it’ll sound more convincing. Give my regards to all the cunts.

    I’ll be worse than Tom Hanks crossed with Halle Berry. Except with better breasts, of course.

    As I’ve already said, you sound like Tom Dunne doing that ‘Penny Apples’ bloke.

    Twenty…. Baby….. It was entirely accidental right up until the point where I decided to dedicate it to you… At least now you know how I feel about you x x x No-one told me there’d be baby seal on tomorrow night! Yum.

    Sorry about the shortness of time to all – still getting used to this “radio” lark…

    You were stitched up mate. We could hear Rick laughing at you as he played the song. The big question is will Twenty be going tomorrow and if so will he be wearing a mask.

    He’ll be wearing Rick’s head as a hat, I think.

    dick, sorry, rick must know his days are numbered:

    “Quiet last night of the show in its current incarnation :-)”

    hopefully buddhists are wrong and rick will not rise again from the blood sodden patch of carpet that will be his final resting place. unless he’s one of those liquid metal terminator things, which would explain his lack of a personality, sense of humour and musical taste. i’ve put twenty on ten, or ten on twenty, which ever is better

    Twenty, you’re being sucked in by the media; it was never Jamie Bulger; James was the name.

    Good luck tomorrow

    Not to make a foul mood any fouler…but I’ve just heard that Um Bongo have pulled out as sponsors of the mineral bar. The only mineral now on sale will be TK’s Um Bongo knock off: “Congo Fruit Blast”.

    Thanks. I tried to buy drinks for whoever would have them. I bought Rick O’Shea a beer and did I get my Um Bongo? Did I fuck.

    Well up Twenty on the award. How you manage to keep us entertained on a daily basis is a impressive feat. Gay Byrne for the noughties really…..
