Husband to one, Dad to three. Former broadcaster now CEO of two radio stations. EV owner. Likes coffee (& reusable coffee cups 😀), baseball caps and Wolverhampton Wanderers. Lives in Waterford 🇮🇪
It pays to read the description carefully before buying anything on @amazon. I just bought a 2025 Diary Refill in mid-Nov 25 thinking it was a 2026 one 😡. Yes, I still run a paper diary. But I also have my Google calendar synced across my iPhone, two iPads and MacBook.

The BBC I joined was far from perfect, but it was self-aware. It asked difficult questions of itself as well as others. That culture of reflection is what must now be rebuilt | ✍️ Jo Coburn
BBC is the mirror that reflects Britain — that mirror is now cracked
The public’s view has shifted from affection to doubt. The corporation’s survival depends on rebuilding trust through a culture of openness

19 years ago today, I started in my current role as CEO of Cork’s 96FM & C103. As I set out this morning on the first commute of my 20th year, I did a quick calculation and reckon I have driven circa 1.2 million kilometres between Waterford and Cork so far 😜

There’s no need to have two separate smartphone Apps for Cork’s 96FM and C103 anymore.

From today, you can download the new Onic Player and bring both radio stations (plus many more) with you wherever you go.

Wishing every success to our son Callum who starts his Masters today at @micireland.bsky.social in Limerick.

It's funny to be in love with something for more than twenty years and the love never fades. Will always love seeing true tailors at work. Unfortunately these sorts of small shops continue to disappear.

Very proud of the sport; news; digital; promotions and on-air teams at Cork’s 96FM and C103 who covered every exciting minute of the road to Croke Park. Our team has been consistently supporting Cork GAA for more than three decades and we’ll continue to in the years ahead.

Great to spend some time in Cork with this broadcasting legend who presented his Virgin Radio UK national radio show from Cork’s 96FM and C103’s home at Broadcasting House this morning.

30 years ago today, I married the love of my life. Three decades have flown by too quickly. I’m a very lucky guy.

So what happened to Trumps pledge to end the war within days of taking office ?
President Trump has said that he does not believe President Putin wants to end his war in Ukraine as Russia launched the biggest aerial attack of the conflict overnight
Trump-Putin call: US ‘not happy’ about Ukraine talks

Happy Birthday to BBC Radio Bedfordshire (now BBC Three Counties Radio) which launched 45 years ago today. I had the pleasure of working there part-time in the very early 90’s while at college in Luton. Some years later, I did a stint freelancing in the newsroom. Happy memories

Why do politicians (and/or their advisors) think it’s clever to not give a direct response to an interviewers question ? If there is a specific reason e.g. security why you can’t answer - just say so. This guy keeps damaging his reputation the further the brilliant Nick Ferrari rightly presses him

‘Minister, you’re a bright bloke, but you’re not answering the question.’

Does the UK support America’s strikes on Iran? Nick Ferrari asks Armed Forces Minister Luke Pollard seven times and is still none the wiser.

Great to see this campaign come together across Cork City and County

We’ve just ordered pizza online to be delivered. Then my mobile rings:
Me: Hello
Caller: This is XXX Pizza. I want to confirm your address. Is it XXXX.
Me: Yes
Caller: And can I get a phone number from you in case my driver needs to contact you.
Me: Eeeeh - the one you have called 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
