ut to do you know and it just no it just it actually it annoys me too much I would love to see us have more awareness of what's going on at the moment yes yeah you know what I mean drop serious on it but I mean like yeah if you see what's happening in eastern Ukraine yeah young lads and some women in effectively and it's a horrible phrase me grinders like just literally being sent in like the ones over the top in the first world war in other words we are living through it as we speak if you know what I'm on about like and I understand how it's it but you know there are thousands upon thousands of young people sent literally into a meat grinder they're sent to their death there's no way they're conscripted on both sides which I don't think an awful lot of people realize that there's even some talk of people who've left the area being rounded up in different countries to go back and do their thing and as I say I don't want to be serious on it but I find myself in that mine space which switches me off the these types of don't you just know you know there's groups of a film executive sitting around going hey war is selling right now let's make a load of war movies you know and just that kind of cynical low and I think so is happy I think I think there's an element there I think if you open the door on that then you say we can't do war pictures because there's war on the world we can't do crime pictures because you are you're also saying you can't do a story of where a husband abuses his wife no you are you are you're opening the door on that because a crime because a crime is you're saying you can't fictionalize what's happening no I'm saying you can you have just not going to watch it and enjoy it yes but then some people might now want to see a misogynistic kind of story where a husband beats up his wife correct you would have to have some rich man pulling the strings making the husband abuse his wife and getting away scot free but that's if you're and then a whole group of people profiteering on it and then maybe that's the aspect of the war that you're finding objectionable but if you're saying there's the killing as well yeah but there's but it clouds it to the point where I can't I wouldn't enjoy it I love a one of my favorite shows I've said it before it's the first 48 it's horrendous it starts with a murder every episode right and it's true yeah but these are the individual actions of people and then you could talk about you could probably talk about what's happening in society that force causes this to happen in the gun culture in America of course you could yes but it's just the particular things about war how they're messaged how they're covered in various news channels that it all is so murky that I just wouldn't enjoy that type of film but I don't think I'm not saying this shouldn't be made yeah Pearl Harbor band of brothers yes I think it's a specific viewpoint I mean it is a very specific viewpoint I see where you're coming from but at the same time I think if nothing else we fiction can be cathartic I mean you could look at these things I mean you can take that you can read that from the material but then you can also read should we not look at the battle of good versus evil which happens today but yeah but should you not find who's good and evil well if people are if people are in a town and an occupied force takes the town I don't think it's that it's an individual battle within the why yeah it's about our housewife who basically it's Rupert Murdoch isn't it that's who defines who's good and evil very heavy guys it is but anyway listen you're giving it full marks Connor's not going to watch it I read on Cally and Cune celebrating winning two gongs at the Celtic media festival in Donegal which is great won the spirit of the festival and talked for single drama awards at this year's event at Unclochenlea it already scoped a nomination for an Oscar earlier this year and won eight iftas in 2022 was this just the darling of of of irish film industry or did it deserve all these accolades deserved I haven't seen it deserved yeah deserved it no I haven't it's you know it's there it's the list it's the next thing that I have to watch when I finish watching what I'm watching I never finish watching what I'm watching I have about five or six programs that are always on the list yeah uh but something will come out and go ahead of it so they're potentially to the point where I've oh when you're finally around about to sit down and watch it you get a phone call you have to go something yes I watched the bling ring on on it was made into a film um seven or eight years ago uh it's a documentary on Netflix interested any listeners who've watched it 08 660 25000 it's about teenagers that started robbing celebrity houses in hollywood um and how they came to do it and the people involved have got good access to it and conflicting stories and all that kind of stuff it's another one of those kind of talking head ones but there's a bit of reconstruction it's not bad but again can you hear the interviewer the producers sitting there asking questions off mike and i'm like oh don't do this to us but anyway uh i wonder like our our producer is outside but he has a question he's gonna lean on the window the camera just have a mic plugged into the camera and go uh you know but anyway uh if anyone watched that let us know and i watched an absolutely terrible film on amazon last night i'm not even gonna talk about it oh please please it's called shattered um and it was trying to be a cross between like fatal attraction basic instinct misery and it's just so cliche miserable you might actually enjoy it because it's so corny and cliche if you don't embrace that embrace yeah because you like your b films oh i do you know what i mean oh yeah cheesiest in sometimes you want to wear it doesn't tax you yeah there's no surprises i knew this was coming it's like one of the characters um when they turn bad all of a sudden their head tilts to one side there's a smile and they start speaking like this and i'm thinking right is this a joke no it's not i already love it i think it's called shattered but anyway it was uh it's passed an hour and a half but i wish i had passed it another way shall we take a quick break and then we'll talk about the celebration of father

looking forward to call the amazing bubble man and uh look up the promo video for the amazing bubble man on youtube and you will see it's amazing he is a bubble man you know but it is amazing it does what it says on the channel exactly it's the wrong seal title yeah okay right now also coming up uh celebrations of father ted in the baller what's this about well what's this about but how does the structure of it yeah if that's that's tonight it's hosted by joe rooney who played father demo in uh you know he was the sort of the the other novice priest that came and led do go the street so uh you know there's um joe first and foremost he's he's one of ireland's longest and most revered stand-up comics i mean he was back in the old international bar days and arguably there wouldn't be a stand-up scene in our individual so i mean joe on his own is worth our money you know but then they do all sorts of things like there's a lovely girls competition uh there's a there's a dancing priests competition so there's lots of audience interaction uh i'm sure there's going to be a my lovely horse singing along and i'd be very disappointed if it didn't end with a all rise for the national anthem and play ghost town so it's a sort of a you know an interactive nostalgia manic father tread how did father ted uh do you think managed to i mean there's lots of shows of popularity at their time and then they cease uh but this has maintained it's the references still the lovely girls and the you know what i mean what what is it i because the only thing i can think a little bit like it's a wee bit like faulty towers but i think father ted even more so yeah i think the humor was so off the wall that it has this timeless quality to it because i already remember watching bits of father ted and never getting it and going i don't see what people see in this and i actually remember i was in a friend's house one night and i remember the line and then everything clicked and it was a do you go said something about the pope and take us the pope is god's representative on earth and do you go goes you think you'd be taller and after that all the absurd humor just clicked and made sense for me but i think it's because of the absurdity of the humor it's not rooted in anything really topical and it just gives it this timeless quality is it a show that oh yeah i'm actually i'm actually on the cusp of starting another rewatch and lined it up kind of and i only finished a rewatch a couple years ago i think the thing about ted is and i agree with everything that's been said before but i think it's very rewatchable i think and that's where it also stands up there with faulty towers which i also rewatched and finished recently it stands off i mean there's good shows that that you know they're funny you know like a lot of american sitcoms i'm a fan of them but they're not you don't immediately want to go back five 10 15 years later and rewatch the parks and rec was a great show great show but i'm not given i'm not driven to rewatch any of the episodes there's some shows that's really pay when you rewatch them ted is one of those you go back and revisit it five 10 years later you'll just see stuff and it'll seem fresh you think dairy girls will have the same longevity i don't know i haven't seen that one yet at all so i don't know no just one night i mean obviously it was big but it won't just happen it was it was big i think dairy girls is more of a timer of place and um it's that's not a criticism no no no no it's hugely popular uh and i just wonder in 10 years down the line will it resonate the way it did my my hunch is no yeah okay uh celebrations of father ted in the baller tonight tickets available tickets available yet at the box office you can seven four nine one three one eight four oh and you can turn up on the night you can turn up on the right brilliant capacity there all right okay uh let us go now to star trek lower decks on amazon yes so this i'm coming to the end of the second season of this is running out of things to do star treks about now this is lower decks so we're not in yeah it's basically well it's it's the lord it's the people who don't get to go on the exciting missions right so they are running out of yeah it's a half hour comedy series oh okay yes and it's an animated show very much in the style of the great future rama or um um oh it's an animated show yeah it's an animation it's there's three star trek animated shows one from the 70s and two that are currently in production the two that are in production at the moment are brilliant one of them is a serious drama and this one is just a flat-out comedy but what makes it and it's on amazon what makes it interesting is it it still adheres loosely but it adheres to the rules of star trek it fits into the timelines it doesn't deviate things too much from what could happen in a live action episode and what's very exciting about it at the moment is the two leads on this are actually crossing over into star trek strange new worlds which is about to come back for season two but it's going to be their live action versions the real actors are going to appear in the episode they're not going to have cartoons walk on the screen but they are going to have some of the episode animated well they are actually are yeah are they losing the run of themselves though i mean this is an absolutely exhausting franchise no no it's because you can have star trek holodeck yeah i would say critics and fans have embraced this and strange new worlds it's more creative and more exciting than star trek has been in years because some of the shows they had like discovery and the early seasons of the card war are terrible but they seem to have found their mojo the bottom line for lord x is the three seasons are up i've seen two of the three seasons it's very funny it's really funny and it works on it's not so much whether you care about the star trek elements but you can watch it because the main guy is this insecure character who's striving for promotion he cares too much about everything that happens around him and cares about the nittlest things his best mate she is she doesn't care about anything they're a great partnership you know that's a lot of these comedies whether it's red dwarf whether it's ten it does look as cliche as doesn't it yeah but it's like buddy cop movie yes but it's like it works i know what you didn't but it's splendid from the force and you got 48 hours to clear your name um but it works because they're they're polar opposites but they are best friends and it's very funny and it brings in a lot of like there's they have that a character called badgey on the holodeck who was based on do you remember that annoying paper clip that used to appear on microsoft years ago can i help you so badgey is voiced by one of the guys from 30 rocks but he's so much deranged so he pops up on the holodeck and the safety protocols are off and he's he's like helping you but he's like let me teach you a lesson and they basically have an episode where badgey is trying to kill them so if you like the idea of the paper clip that used to annoy you in microsoft products 25 years ago coming after you to kill you then this type of star trek humor would work it's a brilliant show it gets better every season if you like future amma love future amma watched voyager or something will watch this yes will it be a certain type of star trek fan no i think it's again it's it's already coming back for its fourth season this year it has been embraced like it has the volkens won't like it the volkens won't like it um it has been embraced no i mean it has i think broadly speaking star trek fans are probably more accepting than star wars fans who hate everything like i mean star i will they do i i i know i i know people a whole name check them on here who'll say to me michael do you watch star wars and i'll say i don't really and then they'll talk for 20 minutes about what's wrong with all the start wars movies your life is like the conflict between uh star trek star wars android apple it is uh you know those universes thing images with the superheroes in them the you know marvel i have taught him well he almost can say marvel in dc he knows they exist he doesn't quite love it i do i love it yeah i love it but anyway to answer your question yeah i think no fans will embrace it and if you're not even not into star wars or star trek sorry but if you loved i mean i i'm sure everybody loved future amma future amma was brilliant band bender so do you think star trek watchers are republican democrats you know what might be really therapeutic for you it's just start supporting the football team or something oh that tribalism oh wow yeah i could do that actually i think he'd end up being really violent to getting banned from i'd be one of the ultras yeah but anyway it's a good show it's on amazon it's worth watching and it's going to be cool in a couple of weeks this summer because you're going to get to see i mean that's an unusual thing the cartoon versions the same actors and luckily the the animated characters are drawn to look they were always drawn to look a bit like the actors i think disney did that as well don't they disney do that as well so and the timeline is is star trek lower decks goes boldly go where boldly goes where no star trek has gone before yes yeah that's what yeah yeah and it all started many years ago on the original next generation there was an episode of next generation back in the early 90s which put the focus on four guest characters who were like sitting in the canteen as it weren't in forward just saying about oh i wonder what they're doing down on the planet well anyway better go and clean the clean the you know the conference room so there was always this idea and people fans were like well why don't we focus on those characters the ones who don't get to do anything exciting and don't know like they know there's a ship outside attacking us but we're like who's who's attacking us no one tells them so this guy it is kind of interesting it's funny well yeah i think maybe if it was if it was live action i'd probably be more interested yeah well you don't watch well look here's the question right no i watched i watched love voyager and the no but do you watch any of the look are you do did you watch future ama no it's yeah i went through a spell where it it all the simpsons was on at seven o'clock in the evening and i just watched it you know what i mean i there was no appointment there but i might have been eating my microwave dinner as it came i shared a house money a guy called jerry lovely guy down in court now he uh that was his routine he got in before seven you know what ruins the drama and simpsons for me nothing tv does family guy oh funny guys it was so edgy right yeah very different when they're i found that even though there was some clever jokes in there i found the likes of future ama and the simpsons sanitized on land yeah yeah i just thought it was so on point so mature so pushing the barriers that we but you know what i mean saying stuff you couldn't say to go back to home we're having a round with mr burns or something it just felt like i was i know what you're saying but i still of course yeah totally but i still think if nothing else bender bender is one of the great comedy like the episode where they open like i always i quote the somebody but where they open the the door and there's like a baby and and like lila is like it looks like a baby and bender is like i'll kill it it's sick it's just there was so much in family guy that you could not have got away with loud action yeah yeah it could only have worked as a carrot town uh yeah exactly the chicken fights which never made it was worth spectacular remember when they used to get when you get into the random fights and they'd go on for like 10 minutes yeah they'd run around and never explained it somatic jokes point or something yeah so good do they still make the simpsons they do okay it's in season um 149 million and 30 yeah something like that right okay uh ron hill rallying in association with the letter kenny community child care facility rebuilding fund presents a pre dunagall international rally event

image well i don't want two strap lines so i'll just i'll just just really pretty much have the budgie smuggler in the straps hanging down it's not small it's far away right thanks i can't i i can't get that image out of my own head that's worrying is you're a weekend ruined right trem trem trem me yeah it's um like you know i never watch that that's current and i'm always watching this all stuff and you know i love the wire so trem is made by david simon after he made the wire i think it's 2010 was season one uh and it's set in new orleans post katrina and it's brilliant for a start i'm really i'm only halfway through season one at the moment i absolutely love it it's got similar to the wire it's got all these personal really engaging stories of these characters but it's all kind of woven into a broader tapestry about post katrina new orleans trem a was you know it's down the lower ninth ward where a lot of the projects were and you have this whole thing of there's certain political slash business influencers that want to use this to get all the poor people out of that because it's actually prime tourist real estate so they want to replace the projects with don't waste a good crisis sort of a thing exactly exactly and the shock doctrine the only client sort of thing and and what it also has as well it's almost like when he was making this simon was kind of afraid that the new orleans that he knew or loved would be lost so it's a real homage to i mean if you like new orleans jazz it is full of it and also that kind of carnival culture and it's almost like you know and the godfather the godfather was so long but it was bits of it where it wasn't moving the story along but it was recreating to give you the feel and there's a real feeling of this about it that you actually really go my god new orleans was great and you really appreciate the whole the the the music jazz asm elements the carnival elements and you'll see there's a lot of familiar faces if you're a warrior fan that that crop up wendell pierce who played bunk in the wire he's a kind of trombonist jazz trombonist was basically living from gig to gig and when did this go into production i'm not getting on the spot train was about 2005 2006 he was on to it really quite quickly after that then yeah i think this was commissioned in about 2008 and the pilot was made in 2009 but was actually broadcasted 2010 and then so the first season then went out in 2010 but i mean it's got everything if you're familiar with David's time and it's got everything that you'd expect with the brilliant characters there's also kind of a overarching kind of social commentary all mixed up into this just absolutely lovingly recreated all of new orleans jazz and new orleans carnival it feels real then does it because that's the thing about the wire it didn't feel like a documentary don't get me wrong but it didn't feel like a traditional tv program either no and again that did it presented or scripted it felt very like there's a camera just capturing what these people are saying yes continue that kind of it it does because again what he's done is he has a brought in new orleans writers uh new orleans newspaper people uh just a character in a play by john goodman who is based on uh an actual new orleans vlogger basically he gets on to youtube and rants about how the bush administration have uh just deserted new orleans and rants quite profanely and he's walking down the street and people are starting to go yes or you're home he's like he's already talking to about three people you know um even the every every every every episode there's a few recurring musicians who are actual new orleans musicians and i've no doubt that another uh another element of making this was to make sure these people survives and you know get them back up to where they were run for four seasons four seasons 36 episodes so it's you know by today's standards it's not a marathon it sounds like one of those shows that you gone oh my i've stumbled on something here and i've got four series to enjoy this unfold yeah because i vaguely remember probably about 10 years ago a friend of mine recommended me because they knew i liked david simon also the music could be right up my street and it was always kind of in the back of me head and i was one of these things i never got around to watching and actually what happened i think the last time i was in here i was saying that i was going to re-watch the warrior but i was a kind of afraid to in case it wasn't as good as i remember you said yeah i watched it and it was even better right and then i went right i'm watching tremmy now yeah have you seen tremmy one of my all-time favorite shows superb i superb superb superb i think recommended this i think way way probably way way back years ago yeah it was it did run four seasons i finished it off i i can say it's quite heavy going it's heavy but it's worth it's not a negative no no no just just setting up for it gets better i mean i think i i think two season two is better than one three is better i think it ends brilliantly it's a her i absolutely endorse everything you've said it's so worth watching i really look for it yeah so it's in for a treat yeah it gets and they get bring in some of my favorite characters haven't even appeared yet for you like oh yeah but they're brilliant i love kim dickens and that she's the chef yes i love her arc i think it's an amazing so what is this don't like i like to break it down in simple terms is it about people's lives in general very much they're very much it's a bunch of people yeah i mean i'll try and put it differently but the same way it's a bunch of people who just share the city but they don't know each other which is fascinating and you're always like oh but that guy doesn't know her and she doesn't you know there's a lawyer and there's some people there's a married couple of so you get to jump around and you see so the main character in the show is the city it's like it's like it's that there's no common denominator beyond that and they just happen to character populate yes exactly and you get this flavor of you know you get different i think but you get really invested in their own personal stories as well i mean the chef uh deeply indebted in the restaurant fantastic chef and she's trying to keep the restaurant going you have the trombone player who obviously you know the gigs have dried up and he's he's literally hand on mouth from gig to gig you have a barrel owner whose brother was arrested just before Katrina and now is completely lost and missing in the system uh you have the john goodman character who's the vlogger you have another guy he was in the world he played lester freeman in the world and he's a new orleans indian chief and he's determined that they will be back for the car so you have all these different stories and i think the the word that keeps coming into my head is and and it's obviously what it had to be because of the serious subject matter and it was almost live although you know a few years later authenticity like they all have to be authentic and of it yes in the same way it has that with the word yeah it kind of it prides itself and but he felt like you were in bolty born didn't you i mean you kind of felt like you knew it yeah yeah and also as i say in in this case so baltimore it was that kind of right edgy gritty authenticity and you have that here as well but you also have this as i say almost like he was he was afraid it was going to vanish you have this loving homage to the authenticity of the the new orleans music scene you know how it's all intertwined isn't it yeah and there's there's there's kind of there's there's a feeling of love off this that didn't necessarily get off the wire you know and you're right i think one thing about there is so much music is kind of said but it's it's like when when when artists are playing they get the scene it's not like there's dialogue over it the camera just moves over and you get to see an entire performance you spend maybe five minutes with an artist again you totally so and it does that every episode yeah and you're like you're completely immersed in this world you're like and you as somebody who's never been to new orleans but after four years you're like oh i get it why it's so important you can really taste the gumball it's quite you get it i have a friend let me ask you because kona hasn't seen it yet um and then we have to take a very quick break would you be interested in a fifth series now catching up on the characters if that's doable what an idea yeah in what new orleans in what new orleans actually become because they fit into this i'm going to tweet david that's such an idea wow that's like when we did that seven up 14 up 20 remember did a movie that's a really brilliant idea i would of course be on board with it yeah okay

righty of carlo whether are you there alan i am in the gregg how are you great to have you on board again thanks so much for joining us all right so what's the weather for the the northwest for the weekend and into next week then is it any less predictable than it has been yeah unfortunately it has changed or is changing with that remnants of star moscow that hit the canaries in spain bringing low pressure up towards us so you're enjoying the best of the sunshine i think really most of this afternoon and this evening the cloud is increasing from the south however we're going to lose that northeast debris which will warm up the north coast nicely so it's going to turn warm and humid winds are going to go suddenly but we're also going to get some more unstable air with showers now the showers are really hard to forecast going to be very hit and miss um i know some areas crying out for rain and others won't want it for the spoil of the weekend it'll probably work out to the ones that want to don't get it and the ones that don't want to get it because it is hard to forecast the showers but temperatures increasing and becoming very humid especially at night time as well temperatures not dropping below maybe 13 or 14 degrees at night there will be sunny spells and especially on sunday but also those local and possibly even tundry showers so it's not kind of as the kind of weather you like because it's going to go from you know very warm and sticky to a shower and back to warm and sticky again but watch out for the showers next week it's going to be warm and getting warmer temperatures getting up to 25 26 degrees by the middle of the week um but still a risk of showers so unsettled but warm and humid is the general consensus pleasant but not unbroken sunshine no unfortunately the blue skies are going to leave us um and it's going to become kind of it's funny we're going to lose the blue skies but it's going to get warmer so we're going to have cloud but much more warmer warm air and that nice sea breeze that many of us that don't like that he's loved last two weeks is going to leave us as well all right okay uh cheers to that Alan thank you very much indeed have a lovely day that's Alan O'Reilly there Karlo whether you can follow him on social media and get all the maps and charts and predictions and what have you and the good thing I
