Dave Moore

Getting married, putting on a brand new show, climbing to Everest base camp and starring in a panto is a lot to cram into a couple of months but that’s just what Ryan Andrews has been up to this year. The newlywed joined Dermot and Dave to chat getting back on stage and how he ended up holding a helicopter door shut with a piece of string!

All roads lead to Cork, and Marina Market was the final stop for the 'Campervan of Christmas Joy'. To mark the occasion, we were joined by some of our best pals from Rachel Allen to Picture This, and of course our lovely audience who joined us! We heard how Cathal got on in his new career as a rapper, surprised a Kildare Dad with a gift of a lifetime, and gave Emma Crotty her radio debut.

Missed some of your favourite bits during the week? Want to catch up on the craic from Dermot and Dave? Well look no further than the Dermot and Dave Best Of podcast, your home for all of the messing with none of the music! Whether you’re on a drive, out on a walk, getting stuck into the gaff or garden or looking for a bit of distraction from work, the Dermot and Dave Best of podcast has just some of our favourite moments from the week gone by! What a week we've had. Wicklow, Wexford, Mullingar, Kildare, Galway, Limerick, Cork, a Campervan, Picture This and tonnes of amazing listeners. The Campervan of Christmas Joy very much lived up to the name. We cannot express how much we've loved this week from having the craic turning on lights in Portumna to a Christmas show in Monaleen National School. We've met incredible listeners like Chloe in Arklow and Deirdre and Adam in Kildare. And we had so many people come to visit us on the road. Mostly, we'll miss our beloved Campervan Of Christmas Joy.

It's a firm favourite in the Moore household, but it turns out not everyone on Team Dermot and Dave is a fan of 'Elf'. The Will Ferrell classic is finally coming to the telly this week and in Pamela's Telly, our Seán revealed that he won't be tuning in!

We're nearing the end of the trip to end all trips and we are having so much craic. After finishing up in Galway, the 'Campervan of Christmas Joy' was on the road again this time headed to Kilkenny. But, we couldn't travel cross country without paying a visit to the spiritual home of 'Dermot & Dave', Limerick. We went to Monaleen National School to bring some joy to Liz, Carmel and all the staff and students in Munster's largest national school! And they put on an INCREDIBLE show for us. In Kilkenny, we heard what happened when Cathal took on the panto, met the mayor of Kilkenny and a hurling legend.

There's nothing our Dave loves more than finding out some facts and presenting them to us in his 'Dave's World'. Given the 'Campervan of Christmas Joy' had taken us to the wonderful Kilkenny, it only seemed right that he dedicate his favourite part of the show to some incredible facts about the city. Including a very interesting story about a doggy named Sandy!

The Campervan has landed west! The first port of call was to head to the beautiful Portumna where we had the honour of turning on the lights for the town. Then we nested into a brilliant spot at the Galway Christmas Market in Eyre Square where we were visited by some of Galway's best including Tommy Tiernan and the real star of the show, Pamela Joyce's Mammy Kitty!

It's a 'Bad Jokes - Campervan' special! Tis the season for Dave's World Bad Christmas Jokes Tuesday!

The joy keeps coming and the people of Mullingar welcomed our wonderful Campervan to their town this morning. In Mullingar, we met a descendent of the most famous resident to ever come out of Westmeath, had the craic with the hundreds of listeners who popped by to say hi and were reminded of the true value of Christmas.

We're on the road, travelling around Ireland spreading some Christmas Joy and we couldn't be happier. 'Dermot & Dave's Campervan Of Christmas Joy' got off to an unbelievable start live from Kildare Village where we met some of the amazing people who popped by to say hi, caught up with Brian Ormond and Pippa O'Connor, heard what happened when Cathal tried to sell Christmas Trees AND revealed the incredible town who turned the lights on our van on! Day one is done, and we're on the road again!
