Eva Osborne
This week's Late Late Show will be a GAA special, and will feature All-Ireland winning captains as well as the President of the GAA.
Host Patrick Kielty will sit down with Aidan Forker (Armagh), Tony Kelly (Clare), Niamh Carmody (Kerry), and Molly Lynch (Cork) to discuss last summer in Croke Park.
The players will chat about the season, their All-Ireland glory, and looking forward to 2025.
Aidan Forker will join Kielty to talk about Armagh winning its first All-Ireland in 22 years and second All-Ireland title ever, while Man of the Match Tony Kelly will speak of winning his second All-Ireland with Clare.
Molly Lynch will reflect on captaining Cork to a two-in-a-row All-Ireland title and Kerry's Niamh Carmody will be chatting about making it to the All-Ireland final three years in a row, to winning it in 2024, having waited 31 years to be crowned champions again.
GAA President Jarlath Burns will speak exclusively to The Late Late Show after a rollercoaster first year in office.
He will also be speaking publicly for the first time on some of the recently surfaced issues facing the GAA, and answering some of the questions they have raised.
As well as all the GAA talk, podcasters and presenters the 2 Johnnies will open the show with their hit 'When I Play for the County'.
The pair will also chat about recent highlights, including winning a Junior B title with their local club, Cahir, and reaching the number one spot with their debut album.
RTÉ Sports Evanne Ní Chuilinn, author of The Great Irish Book of Gaelic Games, will be chatting about the spirit of the GAA and the volunteers up and down the country who keep the show on the road.
She will also talk about how, having played camogie her whole life, Mothers and Others inspired her to take up football.
Former Gaelic footballer and pundit, Pat Spillane will be talking about how the GAA is in his blood and is part of his identity.
With the introduction of the new rules in 2025, Spillane will share what he believes is the dawn of a brand new era of Gaelic Football and is very excited about all the twists and turns of this year's Championship.
