They feature in Phoenix “Young Bloods” this week .
Ken Earlys Political podcast due out today.
Hopefully turns out that Ken is a rabid right wing conspiracy theorist. I suspect the show will be exact opposite. Probably full of them liberals…
The article in Phoenix was pretty positive.
Ken is another snowflake
Suspect will be a very predictable show with a queue of contributors (probably Guardian readers) trying to out do each other in how much they hate Trump.
I predict very little about Irish politics.
Ken never sounds like a real "football man " to me . His accent seems too posh . That said he doesn’t look like a “football man” either .
“Real football man”, the association football equivalent of a “fior gael”.
He isn’t really that posh. He’s from Templeogue I think and went to a bog standard enough school, he’s really a neutral Dub. He must have refined it at Trinity.
He is yeah but he has entertaining rants all the time and does good voice essays on stuff. He’s like Keith Olbermann in that way but the trick is not to get too political (a monthly pod is fine for that) regularly before you start to grate (Olbermann seems to be putting these out daily not going by Twitter)

I always thought Ken should have done video essays on Second Captains Live. Olbermann again;
Ken is an easily offended snowflake ,
Itll be Una Mullally type rubbish
He wouldn’t kick a ball to ducks.
Wore it in the last series too.
6,000 signed up to their new service. Fair play to them
You cant argue with that they done well
Daily podcasts, from the one service, jesus where would you even get the time to listen to daily podcasts?
More and more people are replacing traditional radio with Podcasts now.
It’s been nearly 3 years since I’ve had an old school radio in the house. Everything I listen to is via my ipad/phone/mini bose with a mix of my queued favourite podcasts, spotify and sometimes TuneIn Radio for 8radio.com or BBC Radio 6.
Not too dissimilar in the car as the audio bluetooth sync’s the podcasts and spotify once I sit in.
So I do/could listen to daily podcasts, etc.
I’m not one of the 6,000 Second Captains subscribers however
There are some amount of losers around the place. Fair play to them though.
Oh, I’m all for podcasts, as stated on here before, its practically all I listen to. I just couldn’t find the time for daily podcasts from them, in addition to the others I listen to. As it is, I generally listen to podcasts in 1 & 1/2 time.
I’m finding soundcloud a great way to listen now as opposed to filling up your phone with podcasts and having storage issues as has happened me in the past.
I suspect they have a huge ex pat following.
How much would they have to pay say a Graham Hunter ??
