Fresh from collecting his fifth All-Ireland medal, Dublin footballer Philly McMahon is in studio to chat about how life could have been very different for him, as he opens up about the huge impact his brother’s drug-related death had on him and his family in his new book The Choice.

Ireland’s favourite wedding planner Franc (Peter Kelly) is back on our screens helping Irish brides to find their perfect gown in Say Yes To the Dress Ireland – and he’ll be chatting about all things wedding related and how his business survived the recession.
He’ll also be filling viewers in on the latest trends and how emotions run high in the search for that special dress for the big day.
Fr Joe McDonald is no ordinary priest. Ordained at 45, he has long called for a more open and welcoming Catholic Church here and he is now tackling the establishment head on with a controversial book titled Why The Irish Church Deserves to Die.
He joins Ryan on Friday night to tell viewers why he believes the Irish Church has failed Jesus and the Gospel; what could be done to rescue it and why he feels the survival of the Church is by no means absolute.
PLUS, there will be music from Nathan Carter; and Electric Eddie joins Ryan as three amateur singers battle it out to take the Late Late Karaoke crown.
