Mammy interviewed by Aine Lawlor on RTE One's One To One

[Tomas Mor]

Mary is brilliant and I predict she could yet be back in the next coalition government in which Fianna Fail will be an important part. This time next year watch the F.F. ratings soar.

dont be deluded, this old cow is out on grass for keeps.

You should tune in to Lyric for a few mornings and tell us how you would like to start your day with Marty in the morning--bet you will be singing a different tune.

Y'see, I avoid Marty - just like I avoid the bits of RTE radio that I don't like. I'm not obliged to listen to all stations 24 hours a day. I pick and choose - and I have plenty of stuff available to chose from.

Lyric is a bit easy listening for my tastes. I like my "Classical" (scare quotes because classical is a very small genre in the symphonic form) a little more off the beaten path and Lyric tends to stay on a very populist path. Still I discover Arvo Part on Lyric so I suppose that it has some value.

All of it has value to different people. I can't bear Tubridy but I'm not forced to listen to him. I don't much like Kenny, but he gets some fascinating guests on his show and actually interviews them well. I even even enjoy JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEE DUUUUUUUUFFFFFFFFFFFFFY when he gets on to an interesting story.
