Episode 874: Live At The Cat Laughs With Dara Ó Briain And David O’Doherty
It’s a very special live recording of our show at the Cat Laughs Festival, featuring superstar guests Dara Ó Briain and David O’Doherty, from a packed Langton’s Ballroom in beautiful Kilkenny City.

We discuss all the important topics with two of our greatest comedians – is Ireland just too parochial to have an alt-right movement? We talk Theresa May, Jeremy Corbyn, Leo Varadkar… and hitting photographers on the head with a sliotar at Lords.
We also ask Dara if he’d be willing to go on Arsenal Fan TV, who he prefers between Brian Cody and Davy Fitzgerald, there’s a live Eoin’s Poems and we discover the Irish rugby player who introduces David as his nemesis.
(Check out the videos from the show below for a super-special-world-service-multi-platform-interactive-4D-futuristic listening and viewing experience. Yes, photos,videos AND the podcast – this is groundbreaking stuff guys)

And we remind everyone of the hurling skills of our new glorious leader Varadkar and the man who he’ll aim to replicate, Charles J Haughey:
