Dermot & Dave

We don’t think we’ve ever met someone who loves a tomato as much as Michael Kelly. The man behind GIY Ireland has documented what a year in the life of someone who grows their own is like-the good, the bad, and the tomatoes. Michael joined Dermot and Dave to chat about what we can all learn from ‘The GIY Diaries’.

Some of these tales are incredible! Brendan Tierney joined Dermot and Dave for What's The Story and he had some great stories from his experience as a driving instructor. Brendan is also organising the SO Funny 'Sligo Comedy Festival'. For more information on tickets and supporting the festival you can head to - sofunnysligo.com

They’re cute but they sure have teeth. Anyone who has had a puppy remembers (or has forgotten) the biting stage. After a listener got in touch about their mouthy five month old cockapoo, dog behaviouralist Suzi Walsh joined Dermot and Dave. Suzi explained why pups bite, what you can do about it and answered your questions. You can find out more about Suzi on her website dogbehaviour.ie.

These might make your laugh or cry.. or maybe both! It's the first Tuesday of the the month and Dave is here with another round of terrible bad jokes!

We set him the challenge. Twelve weeks of training, twelve weeks of graft and the small matter of a marathon at the end. The latest 'Challenge Cathal' was possibly the toughest yet, but how did he fare at the Dublin City Marathon? The (achey) Tipp fella caught up with Dermot and Dave to chat toilet breaks, medals and the strange song that got him through the wall.

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! Lads, we were on the road! We had a show with an audience for the first time since god knows when, and it was magical. The best part was our Pamela Joyce got to bring us to her home of Galway and showed us the best sights from the driving range to her Mammy’s kitchen. The excitement doesn’t stop there, there’s only days until Cathal runs his first marathon, and we heard how the training is going. Oh, and now, our favourite Tipp lad wants an earring. He’s out of control. We heard about how Dermot’s been meditating all wrong and how Dave could have it right. Clair

We couldn’t come to Galway and not catch up with one of its most famous residents. Galwegian, TV star and all round legend Grainne Seoige dropped by our new home ‘The Kings Head’ to teach us some proper Gaeilge and revealed all about her brand new doc on the menopause.

It only comes but once a year but there’s so many amazing films and they’re all on the box this weekend! We heard all about where to watch everything from Scream to Halloween in Pamela’s Telly. Plus, we heard about a brilliant new film in cinemas this weekend and the Irish legend hopping on Graham Norton’s couch.

If you're a Garth Brooks fan, then you will enjoy BROS. Cathal from the Dermot and Dave show caught up with some of the stars of the new rom-com - 'BROS'. Cathal had a chat with Billy Eichner, Luke MacFarlane, Miss Lawrence and TS Madison. He also caught up with the director Nick Stoller and they all had the craic. BROS is out in cinemas nationwide.

The lads were live from the King's Head in Galway for the Galway Comedy Festival. They had the chats with comedians Deirdre O'Kane, Glenn Wool, Rory Stories and Bernard Casey. Click Play to catch all of the craic.

'We alll live in a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine' You know the words, but di you know that it could have sounded a whole lot different! In Dave's World, we hear how 'Yellow Submarine' might have sounded if John Lennon had gotten his way.

It's almost race day! 12 weeks ago, Dermot and Dave challenged Cathal to run the Irish Life Dublin Marathon. Well, D Day is just around the corner! So is Cathal ready? The lads also present him with his lovely yellow running top for the big day.

It’s been a permanent feature on Irish roads for decades and the first car of thousands of us. But now, it’s time to say farewell to the Ford Fiesta. It’s been announced that the company will cease production of the Fiesta after 46 years. Geraldine Herbert joined Dermot and Dave to look back on the beloved car.

It was recently announced that Ireland will send their first satellite to space and we might be looking across the Irish Sea for tips. Spaceport Cornwall will soon be launching the first UK satellite using a passenger jet. Melissa Thorpe and Ian Annett from Spaceport Cornwall joined Dermot and Dave to explain all.

There's nothing more interesting than getting into someone's head, and even more so when that someone is our own Dermot Whelan. In Say Stuff That Suits The Music, Dave places pieces of music to Dermot that he's never heard before, and the results are quite something!

You know the sound at the beginning of every Netflix show? For Dave's World, Dave explained how the Netflix sound came to being. This story is actually fascinating!

Things are bad in the housing market but for one family in a Kilkenny, they’ve found an incredible solution. Paige and Matthew moved home from the US in 2020 and after a fruitless search for a home, they’ve built an incredible space in a garden shed. Paige joined Dermot and Dave to explain how they went about building their home! For more on Paige and Matthew's build, visit @irishtinyhouse on Instagram.

Teenage girls of the 00s assemble! Groovy Chick is coming back. For those who missed this iconic moment in Irish pop culture, Groovy Chick was on everything a teenage girl wanted at the start of the century from bed clothes to mini fridges! Now, it’s making a comeback thanks to Donegal designer ‘Sad Sac’ aka Daniel Walters. Daniel joined Dermot and Dave to explain how he came to be involved with the brand!

Losing your pet is one of the most heartbreaking things that can happen to any family. For Claire McCarthy, she was fully in mourning for her beloved cat when things took quite the turn. Claire joined Dermot and Dave for a ‘What’s The Story’ special.

The jokes are extra 'Dad' this week! It's Tuesday and it wouldn't be a proper Tuesday without some of Dave's terrible jokes. Even Dermot laughed at a few!
