“Someone in RTE management tuned into Gerry’s radio show and was outraged to hear him joking about the size of his penis.,” he said.

“According to Gerry, they drove straight down to the Point to confront him. They warned him that if he mentioned his penis on air again, he would be
sacked.”

Meanwhile David revealed Gerry was upset when he found out he had been axed from hosting the Eurovision on RTE in 1993.
