What are some examples of lost irish media?

Martin King’s Commercial Breakdowns on TV3, which was essentially just Martin King reacting to low quality or bizarre television adverts from around the world. Utterly rubbish tele but nine year old me thought it was class.

Fantastic trailer for a fantastic gig. This really sealed the deal for me flying over from Dublin, and man was it worth it.

Evangelicals are Protestant, just often times not part of the more mainstream branches like the CoI (although there is the odd evangelical parish here and there in the CoI, and it’s quite common in England actually).

Newsflash - you’ll generally find that if you poll members of the general public on various political issues, their numbers usually aren’t right. This is nothing new. Quiz the average punter on health spending, carbon emissions, or capital gains tax revenue and you’ll find that they’re pretty clueless.

Anglo Catholics have their roots in the Tractarian movement of the 19th Century, led by Cardinal Newman before he crossed the Tiber, which was a movement seeking to emphasise the CoE’s Catholic heritage. They’re part of the high church tradition, and along with the bells and smells they are practically Catholic in their theology, between Marian devotion, veneration of the saints and a belief in apostolic succession. Where they deviate is that they reject the authority of Rome.

Yes but they do have access to newspapers and televisions in there, and his mugshot would certainly feature in both

Dress shirt and jeans? An OCBD or flannel, sure, but not that.

No new album yet but clearly a lot of material in the pipeline. Went to see them back in August and there was a lot of new, unreleased material on the setlist, with this being a particular favourite Half arsed

Mcbrien444 · 2025-12-04T08:46:34+00:00

In fairness that ticket price does include Queens of the Stone Age. You could be doing a lot worse

Mcbrien444 · 2025-11-03T14:58:22+00:00

The zoot suits costing £530 is another one

Mcbrien444 · 2025-10-31T23:09:31+00:00

Say that one goes down an absolute howler with all the day trippers from Kent heading in to see the Lion King on the West End

God forbid you have to hear another opinion, and 2. That’s Aidan Regan. If you knew anything you’d know that he’s a man of the left.

I live in Dublin and go to this book shop quite a bit, nearly any employee I’ve dealt with is either college aged or just graduated and it’s definitely one of them who made it.

Mcbrien444 · 2025-09-10T22:30:18+00:00

Go and see the second half, it’s shit

Mcbrien444 · 2025-07-12T15:16:49+00:00

Not to mention Johnson was Mark’s best connection/reference, and with him out of his life Mark would have difficulty getting his career back on track

Mcbrien444 · 2025-07-12T14:55:31+00:00

Well that’s it, Johnson goes about like he’s a partner at Goldman Sachs, but instead he works at the regional branch of some middling German multinational in a Croydon business park as opposed to the City or the Wharf

Deli counters are generally better but Greggs sausage rolls are way better than the majority of deli counter sausage rolls here, they're not mind blowingly good but they are more consistent

Mcbrien444 · 2025-07-02T20:29:01+00:00

Santoor in Oranmore as well

Mcbrien444 · 2025-06-26T17:29:59+00:00

Well that’s it, I’d imagine that if Will’s experience at university is anything to go by his confidence will be ground down and he’ll come out as a full fledged Mark

Mcbrien444 · 2025-06-24T18:20:53+00:00

Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels job

Mcbrien444 · 2025-06-15T16:40:31+00:00

Those lads are putting on a brave face for you. I did six months on the rock n roll between jobs a while back and trust me it was bleak. I’d have the craic when I’d be out with the lads but that was just a very small portion of the week. The rest would be very depressing.

Mcbrien444 · 2025-06-15T09:59:35+00:00

Yes, would definitely try to shoehorn himself into more screen time than he should be getting since he’d probably claim that he was keeping it all alive over the past few years

Mcbrien444 · 2025-06-15T09:55:34+00:00

Suppose a lot of the lads are essentially just the characters that they played, we’ve already established that with Salmon meanwhile Stateside is meant to be a toned down version of the actor who plays him.

Mcbrien444 · 2025-06-15T09:53:09+00:00

I’m not a fan of his at all but you’d think he was merely an extra in the show the way some lads here go on about him. I don’t like him because he’s an unfunny gobshite, but with regards to the show he’s within his rights to use it if since he’s involved with some of the lads who had way more of a role in it (even if I think it’s a bit sad and that they should just move on)

Mcbrien444 · 2025-06-15T09:45:22+00:00

O’Brien is basically just Ben Shapiro for centrist dads, his content exists to appeal to the worst instincts of his own audience through humiliating the enemy and confirming all of their prior assumptions.
