Opinions Matter with Adrian & Jeremy

Show Notes

Katie gets a WhatsApp from a mechanic after dropping her car into a well-known garage… and it’s not just “your car is ready”. It’s “Hi pretty girl” and an offer to wipe a €400+ bill in exchange for dinner.

Creepy breach of GDPR, or just a lad “shooting his shot” the old-school way?

Adrian and Katie clash over whether she should report him to the company, reply to him, or just block and move on.

Live callers explode the debate: romance vs professionalism, privacy vs overreaction, and what this kind of behaviour says about dating in Ireland now.
