  • How do you make a good apology?
    2025/09/15

    A UK study has suggested that the wordier your apology, the more effective it is.

    The British Journal of Psychology has said that if you want to truly convince people that you are sorry, then longer words make you sound more sincere.

    Do you agree?

    Joining Andrea to discuss is Leslie Shoemaker, Counselling Psychologist and Lecturer in TU Dublin and Mary McCarthy, Irish Independent Columnist.

  • Do you have a pension?
    2025/09/15

    There's been a noticeable rise in the number of Irish adults without any retirement plan in place. Recent research from the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) shows that one in four people are unprepared for retirement…

    So, what’s going on? Do people simply not care about their financial future? Or has the rising cost of living made it nearly impossible to put money aside?

  • Should alcohol be allowed in Croke Park’s stands?
    2025/09/15

    Later this month, Croke Park will be full of American Football fans as the Minnesota Vikings, and the Pittsburgh Steelers go head-to-head. This will be the first time that Croke Park has ever held an event of this caliber.

    With many people heading to the 80,000-seater stadium, fans will have a privilege that many GAA fans have not had before. They will be allowed to drink alcohol in their seats.

    The long-standing rule in Croke Park prevents fans from bringing alcohol into the stands. In this event, however, this rule will not apply.

    Should this change be a permanent one? Or should we keep alcohol out of the stands?

    Andrea is joined by listeners to discuss.

  • Are there no boring Irish people?
    2025/09/12

    There are no boring Irish people. That was the claim made by Alicia Silverstone whilst appearing on Rob Lowe’s podcast this week.

    Ireland’s known for its storytellers, wit, and charm, but is it all just a flattering myth? Or is there something in the culture that makes dullness rare? Is this claim ridiculous or true?
