Dermot & Dave

It was a 90s icon, a staple of Saturday nights and now, Gladiators is back. The BBC have confirmed that they're reviving the classic show with new episodes coming out in 2023. But did you know that an Irish woman was one of the series winners? Audrey Garland from Dublin was the 1997 champion, and she joined Dermot and Dave where she revealed the grueling training programme she had to go through, what it was like behind the scenes and the incredible reason she was so good at 'The Eliminator'.

This poor man went through hell to get this snake out of his house. For Dave's World, Dave brightened up everyone's day by playing a clip of a poor Geordie man who is struggling to deal with a special visitor.

We recently received this message from anonymous listener: I am suffering burnout in my marriage.... not a bad man but a terribly lonely marriage. Kids, mortgage etc... would love people's advice or views on making the break in this situation...so difficult but soul-destroying to stay...years and years have passed now To explain how burnout in marriage can happen, and what to do about it, we were joined by Louize Carroll from Prism Therapy Online

What do you do when you celebrate 20 years of working with your best friend? You do an entire radio show where you know NOTHING. To celebrate 20 years of Dermot and Dave working together, we arranged a special show filled with some friends, some music, a lot of prizes and the return of a very divisive competition. And find out who is the better present giver-Dermot or Dave.

She's one of Ireland's top golfers so it's safe to say that Leona Maguire knows a thing or two about what's expected of a caddy. After Dave's rather interesting experience taking on the role for Dermot at the Irish Open Pro-Am, he had tonnes of questions for Leona. Leona also spoke about how she's spent her holidays, working with the K Club and how she's now even inspiring Confirmation names!

We can assure you that not all of the jokes are Dave gloating over United beating Liverpool, but there might be one or two! Dave was in flying form for Bad Jokes. Get ready to groan, giggle and grimace!

If the world is a village, Ireland is a street and everyone knows that everything gets back eventually. This was something comedian Jarlath Regan discovered recently when he stayed in a Cork hotel. Jarlath joined Dermot and Dave ahead of his appearance at Electric Picnic for ‘What’s The Story?’

The property market at the moment is a nightmare but there are clever tips and tricks that we can all use to get on the ladder. Financial planner Eoin McGee joined Dermot and Dave to chat through some tips that can help potential buyers. Eoin also revealed all about his upcoming series which sees him heading into Irish communities.

It’s finally here and the reviews are so promising. But the big question around ‘House of The Dragon’ is…will it be more like ‘Better Call Saul’ or ‘Joey’? We heard about the first reviews as well as all the best bits of this weeks telly!

It’s been three long years since we had gunas, Daithi and dodgy Irish dancing but the Rose of Tralee is back! Host Daithi O’Se took some time out of rehearsals to catch up with Dermot and Dave and chat favourites, the new venue and his incredible pre-show ritual.

Baby led or spoon fed? Potato puree, baby rice or allergens? When to even START? Weaning your baby can be confusing, stressful and everyone has their own tips. Thankfully help is at hand.

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! Dave may been sunning himself in Spain but that doesn’t mean that we’d leave him alone. After Manchester United’s shameful performance, he was the first person we wanted to speak to this week. We don’t think he feels the same about us somehow. But Dave isn’t the only jet-setter on Team D&D, our Cathal headed to London to meet the cast of House of Dragons…but really, we had a much bigger plan for him. Finally we said goodbye to BLT in ‘Ah Sure Look It’, lucky Sharon got herself a nice few bob! We chatted about old nightclub tunes, headphones v reality and

When Neil in Laois got in touch with Dermot and Dave, he was not having a good day. He'd had a bad sleep, he was cranky, he was unmotivated and he was stuck working from home. So, we did what we do best. We gave him a call and tried to cheer him up. Of course, in the interest of him not getting into trouble in work, we had to do some subtle name changing to protect his identity. 'James' spoke to Dermot and Dave about his reluctance to go to the old favourite of coffee and sugar to get him through the rest of the day. But, that got us thinking. Could we give James/Neil, the best day in work ever? The answer? Yes. We got comedian Eric Lalor to do a stand up set in his back-garden, arranged a bouncy castle with Damien from SoFreshEntertainment.ie and even a glitter beard from Amanda at Glitter Babes and Inked Dudes. The moral of the story is, if you're having a bad day, the only people to call are Dermot and Dave.

It’s finally here. The long-awaited, much anticipated prequel to Game of Thrones is finally coming to our screens but you might want to set an alarm. House of the Dragon kicks off this weekend on Sky Atlantic and in Pamela’s Telly, we found out how you can be amongst the first in the world to watch it.

Good news for Elizabeth Johnson Jr. She’s officially not a witch. The only issue is, she was convicted 329 years ago.

When David McSavage heads out on his upcoming tour, he has one goal in mind. Apologising to Limerick. Confronted by our own Limerick-ite, Dermot Whelan, David admitted that he ‘struggled’ with the accent many years ago but has grown up and seen the error of his ways. David joined Dermot and Dave to chat accents, politicians and his time spent in Ukraine.

Online dating has gone wrong for our favourite chawwwwwwlkit seller from Limerick. Noni joined Dermot and Dave to explain what's gone wrong in her love life.

''We need backing for years to come at grassroots level in Ireland'' Arsenal Legends Ian Wright and Emma Byrne joined Dermot and Dave to chat all things football. The guys chat about their playing careers, the recent success of the UEFA Women's EURO' 2022 competition and Ian shares his love for Dublin. Ian and Emma are in town to help support Irish women’s grassroots football with Cadbury’s new campaign ‘The Game Is On’.
