TV and radio broadcaster Craig Doyle is my guest this week! Craig went to the wrong studio on the morning of recording but look, we forgave him. He had a fantastic explanation.

I hope you enjoy!

When Perrie and I caught up she had yet to reveal the gorgeous news about baby number two…so MASSIVE congrats to her!

With that in mind, I thought we would take a trip down memory lane to the very first live show. Rylan Clark was my special guest at the Bord Gais Energy Theatre in April 2023. Ever since first watching Rylan on The X Factor, it's been clear that he is a showstopper; a born entertainer who could make the most mundane of situations into some...

Dermot Bannon showed up to the studio exactly as you’d expect - giddy and ready for divilment. Yes, he did steam in and congratulated the show on its third season (ten, Dermot, keep up), but predictably enough that didn’t set him back at all, and he entertained us with stories about wild times with his Waterford cousins, the Room To Improve guest one of his kids pranked, as well as telling us about the recent illness that left his ...
My guest this week is Brother Richard Hendrick, a Capuchin Franciscan priest-friar from Dublin. You may have seen him on The Tommy Tiernan Show in recent months. If I had known he was open to interviews I would have asked him years ago, as we happen to go way back. I first met Brother Richard 20 years ago when he facilitated retreats in my secondary school. He had a profound effect on me, my sisters and many of our friend...
The Talking Bollox lads. What can I say? Two absolute gems. Calvin and Terence talked to me about growing up in the flats in Dublin's inner city and how they entertained themselves as kids. They were both extremely vulnerable (content warning) and opened up about their experiences with suicide and addiction. They also expanded on their infamous run in with Coolio which I know will make for some seriously funny listening. I belly la...
Chatting to Roddy Doyle felt like sitting down with an uncle you have known your whole life, but never properly gotten to know. He talked to me about his Christian Brother school days, how easy it is to dodge the public eye and gave his (very lovely) answer to “if laughter wasn’t the best medicine, what would be?”. His latest novel ‘The Women Behind The Door’, which is published by Hachette, is available in all good book shops.

To me, Dawn O'Porter is the perfect personification of the London girl I always wanted to be. Lol - cringe - but true! She is smart, cool, hilarious, a diehard lover of the tube and a total woman's woman. It was such a joy to chat to her this week. She told me all about life since making the move from LA back to London with her husband (TLOYL alumnus Chris O'Dowd) and kids, her dear friend Caroline Flack, "writing her way out ...
