It’s the weekend “Get It Off Your Chest” edition — the most random corner of Opinions Matter where literally anything can come up… and it does.
Adrian and Jeremy swap regrets, from giving up the smokes too late to Jeremy’s heartbreak over never going to his Debs (including the brutal reason why). Then it gets even weirder when he discovers, via old wallpaper, that he once had an imaginary friend called Eugene.
Katie rings in in a blind panic because she can’t figure out a self-service petrol station, there’s a proper row over Michael Jackson’s innocence, and the lads taste the new candy floss flavour Tayto… and nearly vomit. -
A “citizen journalist” goes viral after filming outside Tallaght Hospital and losing the plot over one thing: the Pride flag flying on the flagpoles during Pride Month.Adrian and Jeremy bring Philip Dwyer on to ask him straight — how can a rainbow flag be “anti-Christian”, “anti-family” and “pro-abortion”

Casper is raging after discovering his 8-year-old son’s best mate has been signed up to a boxing club — he said “moron parents” are turning kids into “little hard men”.
Adrian and Jeremy ask the big question: is kids’ boxing about discipline, confidence and fitness — or are we literally teaching children to punch someone in the head?
Angela says it’s “disgusting” and far more dangerous than people admit, while parents, coaches and callers hit back with talk of headgear, strict rules, point scoring and self-defence.
And then Joseph goes nuclear, branding boxing a “scumbag sport” and setting off a proper row. -
Sabrina got in touch after her 10-year-old daughter asked could they bring her to next weekend’s Dublin Pride Parade — her auntie is gay and marches every year. Sabrina thought it was a harmless day out… until friends started warning it would “brainwash” kids and claiming “everyone goes naked”.
Adrian and Jeremy debate whether Pride is just like the St Patrick’s Day parade — or if it’s changed into something that's no place for children. -
Niamh emails in raging about the amount of people taking “fat jabs” like Ozempic and Mounjaro, calling them the “lazy way out” and saying weight loss should be done the old-fashioned way — diet and exercise.
Adrian argues it’s nobody’s business how someone loses weight, once they’re healthier. Jeremy isn’t having it, saying people don’t deserve praise if “the jab did the work”.
Stay listening for the awkward moment when Jeremy is called out by a colleague. -
A Nigerian mother living in Ballyfermot is furious after her young son was subjected to an alleged racist remark during a disagreement with another child over the weekend.
What began as a typical row between children took a shocking turn when a racist attack was directed at her son, leaving him upset and his mother deeply hurt and angry.
The Nigerian-born mum says she later approached the other child's mother to challenge what had happened...

It’s the uncut, unedited weekend edition of Opinions Matter - Get It Off Your Chest!
Adrian & Jeremy take a nostalgic but totally inappropriate trip back to the days of “page three” in tabloids, and why it even existed in the first place.
Then Jeremy nearly walks into a “Brazilian massage” place in town looking for a shoulder rub… until a quick Google reveals what the “full treatment” and a “four-handed massage” really means. Imagine the scandal.

A Deliveroo driver is ambushed outside a Subway on the Malahide Road — two teenage scrotes try to rob his €2,500 electric bike with an angle grinder, and he ends up fighting to get his bike and phone back.
Adrian & Jeremy speak to Allencar (from Brazil, here on a student visa) about what happened, and ask why people stood and watched instead of stepping in.
Then the debate kicks off: should delivery drivers be allowed carry pepper spray or some kind of weapon for protection… or is that a disaster waiting to happen?
Plus: “danger area” maps, scrambler bikes, Garda powers, and callers tearing strips off each other. -
On this episode of Opinions Matter, Adrian & Jeremy take on the backlash after the Belfast riots — and the bizarre sight of people down south praising loyalists “like we’re all united now”, while the same gangs will be burning tricolours on 11th night bonfires in a few weeks.
They ask how anyone calling themselves a “patriot” can cheer on riots that saw homes targeted and families terrified. -

On this episode of Opinions Matter, Amy gets in touch from holidays in Marbella after witnessing hotel staff demand a father “prove” a teenage girl was his daughter — and the police end up being called when he refuses to cooperate.

Then it’s onto the important stuff: why rounds only suit big drinkers, how to make fish fingers, chips, beans and even a battered Mars bar sound posh with ChatGPT… and a full-on row over whether Ireland has any decent tourist attractions at all. -
We are shocked by what we heard on Opinions Matter today about the man in the estate in Tallaght and the claims by various locals that he is danger to local children.... They have branded him a "predator" and say that local children are "unsafe".
They told us about they believes he is "grooming" local children and that parents need to be highly vigilant!!!
We are also speechless by the number of parents in Tallaght (in various estates) who have gotten in touch to say that they no longer feel safe letting their children out to play!!!
We have had reports from various locals who say they have seen a local man exposing himself while children play nearby!
They say Tallaght is now a "no go" for children....
We did not realise that things were that bad in Tallaght - the number of messages we got from worried parents is huge!
