Who knew Fathers Day would be so controversial? It was all going so well until we heard from a listener who not only asked for, but was given, Crocs as a gift on the big day. The lads? Very unimpressed. Speaking of controversy, our Dermot sparked some serious concerns when he revealed that he sometimes throws the cone away from his 99…and worse, he doesn’t like the chocolate bit at the end of the Cornetto. We don’t know either. Maria shared with us the top movies on Netflix, and we got some brilliant hidden gems from streaming platforms from our lovely listeners.

He's the first Irish Love Island winner but this year, Greg O'Shea has had to give watching Love Island a miss. The Olympian and former Rugby 7's international explained to Dermot and Dave that the daily show at 9pm is a 'big commitment' and he doesn't have the time to tune in every night. But, he did reveal that he's been following fellow Irishman Dami Hope's progress and thinks he is 'holding himself well'. Greg is one of the many names taking part in this years Horizon Irish Open Pro Am, and he joined Dermot and Dave to chat golf, life after retirement and where he got his Olympic tattoo!

When we think of J1’s, we tend to think of sunburnt Irish students hanging around college dorms and drinking Four Loko. And while that may be the case for many, Fiona Griffin is doing something completely different. The 66 year old grandmother from Kerry is on her first J1 in a summer camp in Wisconsin. Fiona joined Dermot and Dave to chat about her trip of a life-time!

It's all about Pierre Pressure! Yep, It's Tuesday and that means it's Dave's World Bad Joke Tuesday. Dave came back from his holidays especially for these. Some will make you laugh and some will make you cry. Standard practice really.

We’ve all had that moment when we’ve had to run down to collect a package from the door in our dressing gown…but what happens when it all gets a little bit more nudey than that. In ‘What’s The Story’, Rory in Killarney shared a story from his days working in the field of domestic appliances that ended in a very awkward moment.

It got a 12 minute standing ovation at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, it’s been tipped for Oscar success and it’s even got a resounding seal of approval from his family and now, ‘Elvis’ looks set to be the movie of the summer.

Schoooooooolssssss out for summer! There won’t be a tie not tied around the head, or a banana left in the bottom of a bag as we say goodbye to homework and spellings and hello to long days at home.

If you’re stressing about the school hols and what to do to ensure you make the most of it, parent coach Aoife Lee from Parent Support has some top tips to help.

It’s been a long time since Baz Ashmawy tried to kill his Mammy on our screens but the good news is that they’re back together and this time, they’re looking at death in a different way.
