The Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show

Bertie has rejoined Fianna Fáil after 11 years but not everyone agrees with it. In fact, Paschal and Leo are worried that he is toxic....

After singing The Jumbo Breakfast Roll live on the radio with Pat Shortt last year, Today FM want Ian to go one better this year. And so, he has agreed to be…auctioned off to the highest bidder! The business that bids the highest amount of money by the end of the week gets The Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show all for themselves. Some of the more entrepreneurial members of the Gift Grub crew kicked things off this morning with some offers.

The Irish rugby team moved a step closer to the Grand Slam on Saturday, when they were victorious against Italy. However, the rendition of Ireland's Call on the day didn't go as well....

It's all systems go towards Ireland's vital Six Nations clash in Rome on Saturday and the Radio ROG crew put together a Grand Slam special to celebrate....

In our latest trip to primary schools across the country, Shauna from the show headed off to meet the students from 3rd class in Trinity Primary School in Tuam. She spoke to Alicja, Annalise, Caitlyn, Diana, Dakshinaa, Elizaveta, Ethar, Gabrielly, Isabella, Jennifer, Liliana, Michaela, Noreena, Patricija, SammyJo, Tanisha and Zarifa. Earlier in the week, we were chatting about the process of kidulting, which is when adults step back in time and do the things they enjoyed as children, to be more playful and spark creativity. Shauna asked the children what they thought about this and if they had any suggestions for adults listening. There has been a lot of talk about aliens in recent weeks, with various sightings of UFOS across the world. Shauna asked the kids if they thought there was any truth in it and if aliens were real, what are they like?! Thanks to Ms Lydon who organised the visit, Ms Atkinson who was acting photographer, principal Ms Burke, Secretary Kay who sorted out Shauna's lunch and to Ger who helped her park!

It seems everyone and their mother has a podcast these days and now, even former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern is trying his hand at this whole thing. He had a go on this morning's Gift Grub...

There has been a lot of talk about The Northern Ireland Protocol in the last number of days and on this morning's Gift Grub, some of politics biggest names joined Ian on the line to try shed some light on the subject.
