RTE's Sean O'Rourke Show and same sex marriage

As is the custom on the Friday edition of the Sean O'Rourke Show on RTE Radio 1 there was a round-up today of the week's political events. People from the media and politics discuss.

This morning much time was given to the upcoming referendum on same sex marriage.

It's interesting to note the apparent personal animosity betweeen people with different views. Was today's discussion centred around personalities or ideology?

Does the listener learn anything?

Is the 'nasty' person the one whose views you do not accept? And it seemed there was an air of nastiness on the show today.
