Semi-state companies and those who work in them exist in a different timeline.
This is the “talent” we’re paying mega money and perks to, to run RTE.
Monkey Tennis?!
Did the person who came up with this idea also get 5 grand
“Licensed to bill”
30 minute easy to digest episodes where the expense accounts of execs are read out and people vote on which ones are legit and which ones aren’t.
Hosted by Lottie Ryan (probably) and sponsored by the RTE Player.
Ads every 4 minutes via Acast, and a Patreon that allows supporters to access actual copies of financial meeting minutes.
Top tier supporters get the non redacted copies.
Youth Hosteling with Chris Eubank.
People pretending there’s anything wrong with this really have to look at themselves and wonder if obsessing over RTE really is a good use of their time.
Hear me out. We could bring Ray D’Arcy back to pop pimples
Seems alright once they only get paid if the podcast is picked up.
An investigative podcast into the mismanagement of rte funding.. can I have my 5 grand please
text is subscription blocked, but from the title, this seems like a very reasonable way for RTE to help ensure creative products generated by their employees remain under RTE. People are going to come up with these shows anyway and launch them independently if there isn’t an incentive to bring it to the company
Did Blindboy not have a good rant about how RTE sucks the life out of any creative ideas?
Ireland punches far above its weight in terms of podcast production and story telling. Just look at Second Captains.
That 5k would go along way to kick starting a young podcast producer with a bit of kit and a few days paid to record and edit.
Never mind it being used as a kickback to people who are already feasting off the trough in RTE.
Instead of opening up new platforms for younger generations or to try out a few creative ideas, they shut down DAB due to a lack of uptake.
Where as in the UK it now has the biggest share of digital listening, which is where most listening is gravitating to.

Great idea
Water board rafting featuring Marty Morrissey.
They could run an open competition and spread some of that moolah
Hmm….coverage from someone using public transport at 7am and again at 7pm, uncut.
Honestly RTE needs to become self reliant and the public purse taken away.
Isnt the job description of RTE staff already to come up with content ideas?
Seems sensible.
Maybe something about bike gate
Hosteling with Chris Eubank
This is literally a Dilbert comic strip bit.
“Big Game Hunters”
4 RTÉ personalities are dropped off the coast of North Sentinel island with a microphone, two bottle of fizzy orange and a pair of crocs and the last man/woman standing/not eaten gets to host the next season’s event.
Murder mystery
All this thread tells me is. Open it up to the public.
Everyone submits ideas, someone chooses the best ones, they go to public vote. The winner gets the 5K.
Is there anything to be said for another property show.
Well, I guess it’s a change from out of touch commissioning editors insisting they are the only ones that have legit ideas.
I’ll never forget how [Podge & Rodge was messed with because of a new editor](https://www.reddit.com/r/ireland/comments/omnfdk/whatever_happened_to_podge_rodge/) insisting on a reformat 💔
There are a lot of forgotten/underreported unsolved murders that could benefit from being covered on a national podcast.
Paiche Onyemaechi was the daughter of the sitting Chief Justice of Malawi who was murdered in Waterford in 2004. She was decapitated and her head was never discovered. Her husband disappeared after her killing and has never been found, Gardaí want to speak to him.
Emer O’Loughlin was murdered in Clare in 2004. Her decapitated remains were discovered in a burnt-out caravan belonging to John Griffin. John Griffin is on the run after faking his death and Gardaí want to speak to him.
Coverage of these cases on an RTÉ podcast could shine a light and help point of the direction of the men tied to these cases. This is the kind of case that needs public attention to help resolve them
