Opinions Matter with Adrian & Jeremy

It’s the weekend “Opinions Matter Extra” — the totally uncut version where Adrian and Jeremy chat absolute rubbish while the live audience builds… and somehow it turns into one of the most random episodes yet.

Jeremy reveals he’s “living in hell” thanks to Communion season prices (a €440 dress… and a request for a cage of doves to be released), then the lads spiral into slugs with 27,000 teeth, gym nonsense, and whether people who show up hours early for gigs are just odd.

Plus: Pitbull’s “number” in Jeremy’s phone, hugging strangers at gigs, and a “scary noise” in the middle of the night that nearly ended him.

A row has kicked off in a private housing estate in Swords after the management company emailed residents giving them three days to remove eight Irish tricolours hanging from lampposts.

On this episode, Adrian and Jeremy ask: do management companies have every right to enforce the rules… or should people be allowed fly their own flag with pride wherever they want in their estate?

Callers are furious, arguing it’s “our flag, our island” and claiming the tricolour is treated differently to other flags. Others say it’s simple: you don’t own the lamppost, and flags on poles look tacky and can cause division.

The Social Democrats want to scrap Ireland’s mandatory three-day “cooling off” period before an abortion — and on this episode Adrian and Jeremy ask: is it a sensible safeguard… or a patronising barrier that drags out an already traumatic decision?

Callers clash hard. Some argue women have already “thought long and hard” before they ever walk into a GP, especially in crisis situations. Others insist the wait protects women, offers support, and could prevent regret — with heated debate over statistics claiming thousands don’t return for a second appointment.

Anthony thought he was doing the decent thing — stopped at the lights on Pearse Street and dropped 50 cent into the cup of an elderly Roma woman begging. Seconds later, an Irish passer-by roared at him: “Don’t give her any fucking money… give money to your own!”

On this episode, Adrian and Jeremy ask the question: are you encouraging organised begging and scams… or are you just showing basic humanity?

It’s Communion season… and Breda is raging. She says if you never go to Mass, don’t believe in God, and only show up for the photos, the money and the big day out… then you’ve no business letting your child make their First Holy Communion.

Adrian and Jeremy get stuck right into it — is it pure hypocrisy, or has Communion just become “a traditional thing” in Ireland?

Callers clash over tradition, Catholic schools, “plastic Catholics”, and whether it’s actually offensive to treat the Eucharist like an excuse to party!
