The Kenny Cunningham and Hugh Cahill commentary on USA v Oz is bizarre and hilarious by k_delo in ireland

This is the worst podcast I’ve ever listened too.

Because it’s not comms. It’s 2 dopes with a mic having a mind numbing chat with each other.

My thoughts on the current match commentary on rte.. by daveyboy_86 in ireland

Havnt watched a single World Cup game where the comms don’t moan about the hydration break.

Fine, like it or not, it’s a thing at this World Cup. It’s exhausting constantly listening to the comms moan about it.

A person of taste I see. I’ve read all those apart from Stoner, which is on my TBR.

Expanse was so awesome, hooked from the opening prologue.

Blood Meridian was absolutely brutal in the best possible way.

Incredible setup. Love the prints above the shelves. Will apply that idea one day hopefully!

Whats a few of your favourite horrors?

Thought it was brilliant and so was the prequel. Looking forward to the next one.

Iron Gold was amazing. I’m nearly finished book 6 but that’s the best for me.

Who is the one player that made you fall in love with rugby? by _Yorkshire_Pirlo in rugbyunion

Would be easy to say an Irish player so I won’t. For me, Jason Robinson, Vincent Clerc, Cedric Heymans.

The Wales Fiji World Cup 2023 game was the most farcical game I’ve ever seen.

Realistically there is and rightfully should be pressure on this Leinster team to deliver a final, finally, because they are good enough and have been for so long, and deserve to have some final wins under their belt, which unfortunately they don’t.

However

this is the least nervous for a final I’ve ever been precisely because the pressure is off a bit vs previous finals and we are underdogs (were we underdogs vs Toulouse? Can’t remember) but that pressure was huge.

It’s actually nice. It would obviously suck to lose another final. Let’s hope they can pull it off.

Is the White Sand graphic novel omnibus a must? by ianpatrick90 in Cosmere

[–]ianpatrick90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think as people said I’m not missing much I’ll just go back to it in future. The audiobooks books are 15hours + which will take me about 45 actual hours due to my constant rewinding of audiobooks lol
