    8/10
    One of the best.
    For context I'm 23, not 40-60 something, but even I have to admit its a great show. One of the few exclusively intellectual/variety talk shows left in the world (and actually one of the first as well), it really has been a pedestal of Irish discussion and commerce. Politics, law, entertainment, and life in general. One of the few hits for RTE. Ryan's Americanised take was definitely up for question at the beginning but really heightened the show's uniqueness in a country where everyone has the give for the gab.

    The only criticisms I may have is an interesting stifling that emerges in the show, where maybe a pause here and there will arise, most commonly during audience participation segments in the show (but obviously this is due to shyness).
