Al Porter is a comedian and has his own radio slot (2FM I think). He has been on the late late about 3-4 times, surprised lads don’t recognise him. Intelligent fella.

Isn’t he a member of the scarf wearing community
He’s a clown of the highest order - Bum and willy jokes is all he’s good for.

He got in a few digs at the end of the show. Saying that politicians don’t give a shit about the working class and that politicians would prefer not to deal with the working class. Cue Doherty and Chambers saying that wasn’t true and Dunphy agreeing with Porter. Porter also got a dig in at Veradker saying that he doesn’t care.
Al Porter is very astute … A man of the people.

Is this show jointly presented by Yates and Cooper? Sounds like a Dinny O’Brien special, even Al Porter is employed by him.
Cooper and Yeats go head to head at drive time but then present together on the Tonight Show, you couldn’t make it up.
Fair play to George Hook who when he was head to head v Cooper 10 odd years ago had a picture of Cooper on his desk with the idea that he wanted to always be better than him.
Bum and willy jokes can be funny.

Yep the show is jointly presented by both of them, even though last night it was more like the Matt Cooper show with Yates butting in every now and then. 
Sounds like a bit of a mess, is it on nightly like Vinny’s show?
It ticked all boxes required to keep the loons who loved VB tonight . Smug Blueshirt TD , bit of Totty TD , urban snowflake , pretend wealthy socialist , liberal presenter and grumpy presenter .
He’s gay but I don’t hold that against him. He is well able to play up the campness for comedic effect to make his living but he is a serious intelligent fella when he wants to be too. I think he’s only mid twenties and got a very good leaving cert but didn’t go into a normal career. He’s not come from much either, a council house in Tallaght, so I admire his graft and guile to get where he is to this point.

Cooper looks to be the lead presenter with Yates something like a co anchor a la Jim Beglin or Michael Duignan. It could get messy as they will undoubtedly step on each others toes at some point.
As can tits and fanny jokes, or songs.
Like the Cliff Richard classic " Tits and fanny, why we don’t talk anymore"

Is that Colette Fitzpatrick?
Is the show capable of holding those two egos ?
I don’t believe so.
I don’t know. I didn’t see it.
