Opinions Matter with Adrian & Jeremy

Dean says he was sacked from his job during probation after using the word “kn**ker” about himself — and insists it wasn’t aimed at Travellers. A settled Traveller colleague reported him, and now he says you “can’t say anything” anymore.

The fuel protests have entered a new phase — Gardaí say they’re now “blockades”, not protests, and the Defence Forces could be brought in to clear key routes and fuel depots. With the M1 and even the M50 being shut down, are the protesters after going too far… or is this the only way to get the government to listen?

Adrian and Jeremy take live callers from both sides: small business owners being “crucified” by costs, families missing flights, and one caller saying her child’s medication is being delayed.

Tempers flare, opinions split, and the debate turns to how long public support will really last.

Dublin city centre is brought to a standstill as farmers, truckers and others hit the roads over soaring fuel prices — and the Taoiseach warns there “will be penalties” for turning O’Connell Street into a car park.

Adrian and Jeremy ask: do you fully support these protests… or have they gone too far?

Natasha tells a shocking story of being stuck on the M7 for nearly two hours on the way to a serious medical appointment, with no Garda presence and the hard shoulder blocked. Callers are fiercely divided: “short-term pain for long-term gain”… versus “you’re only hurting ordinary people.”

Becky got in touch with Adrian and Jeremy with a dilemma that’s wrecking her head: should she expose her former school bully… who’s now a secondary school teacher with a decent social media following, dishing out “holier-than-thou” advice to parents and students — including videos about bullying.

Becky says this woman made her life hell for six years, and seeing her play the perfect educator online turns her stomach.

Callers are split straight down the middle: “ruin her” and name-and-shame her publicly… versus “message her privately”, give her a chance to show remorse, and don’t turn it into cancel culture.

Then, a twist at the end leaves the lads stunned.

It’s Opinions Matter Extra — the uncut, totally unedited weekend episode… and it goes completely off the rails.

Adrian and Jeremy kick off with a “studio scandal” involving a can of 7Up and a certain someone’s lipstick (yes, it’s as disgusting as it sounds), before somehow ending up in a full-blown argument about beetroot on a turkey roll and why everyone seems to hate it.

Then it’s onto Jeremy being called out (again) over his Leaving Cert timeline, a chaotic chat about swearing and “God forgive me”, and a surprisingly serious dream: Jeremy landing a job doing Tube announcements in London… “Ding dong… next stop, Cockfosters.”
