Opinions Matter with Adrian & Jeremy

A "paedo" who poses an immediate risk to young boys” is being released from prison — and he’s just one of 24 convicted sex offenders due out in the next couple of weeks. Adrian and Jeremy react to the shocking Irish Sun report and ask the big question: should Ireland have an app (or electronic tagging) that lets the public know when a known sex offender is living nearby?

Callers are split. Some want names, photos and addresses online “for our kids’ safety” — others warn it’ll lead to mob justice, mistaken identity, and offenders being driven underground.

So what’s safer: public alerts… or Garda-only monitoring?

A listener called “Tina” is raging after her sister-in-law brought a 15-year-old girl to the GP and had the contraceptive implant put in — purely to avoid a teenage pregnancy. Tina says she’s “only a child” and the doctor should be struck off.

Adrian admits it doesn’t sit well… but asks the hard question: is contraception the lesser of two evils in the real world?

Jeremy argues it’s basically giving a green light to underage sex — while callers hit back saying teenagers don’t always listen, and prevention beats a pregnancy at 15.

Is it responsible parenting… or totally wrong?

A video doing the rounds on The Liberal sparks a fierce debate on Opinions Matter: should Irish citizenship be based on “ethnicity” and even a DNA test… and should citizenship already granted be revoked?

Adrian and Jeremy tear into what they call “Nazi-level” nonsense — but the conversation quickly widens into immigration, racism, and the reality of who actually qualifies for citizenship.

Callers weigh in, including an Indian professional explaining the massive costs, strict work permits and years of paying tax before citizenship is even an option, while others argue the whole system needs tightening.

Adrian and Jeremy tear into it: should parents be buying scooters for kids under 16 at all, or are the guards wasting time when there’s bigger crime to deal with?

It gets even more heated when Tony comes on to say his grandkids (9, 11 and 12) are on e-scooters too… with no helmets

A “peaceful protest” is planned for Saturday night in Kilcock over a proposed IPAS centre in a former nursing home — and it’s reportedly right beside a national school, a secondary school and the church.
