Oliver Callan stands in for the first post-Tubs Ryan Tubridy Show, there is a sense of an embattled institution circling the drain and picking up speed
’s financial arrangements with the national broadcaster are under public scrutiny. As Callan says, he can’t ignore it. But he understandably does not wish to spend the entire 56-minute broadcast banging on about it.
But maybe he should have banged on about it. Instead, there are jokes about how working for RTÉ is like “being involved in a mini-private episode of Succession – phones buzzing who’s going to get the blame for this”. Callan reminds listeners, too, that researchers and others on the show – the “ordinary decent staff” – have “been working away like they always do... they are on the receiving end of this”.
And that is that, just about. He reads the morning headlines – Tubs from wall to wall – but then starts warbling about the merits of rock bands Iron Maiden v Blur and then interviews a woman running a food company in Galway. This is followed by an item on “bring your dog to work day”. Nobody mentions Tubridy or suspended RTÉ director Dee Forbes. How RTÉ gets past Tubridy-gate remains to be seen. But the first post-Tubs Ryan Tubridy Show demonstrates the extent of the challenge facing Montrose.
