They broadcast in three feet of snow, in arctic conditions and have featured presidents and the best of Irish music, including Gavin James, Glen Hansard and Imelda May.
This year, we will have the great Johnny Logan performing – he will do a medley of his Eurovision hits. But he will open the show with Driving Home For Christmas.
Of course Brendan O’Carroll will be on hand with co-compere duties.
Many of the audience have come to most of the shows over the years and it’s Joe’s favourite show of the year, full of Christmas joy.
Joe Duffy – ‘Even before I worked in RTE the Christmas Eve radio show was part of my annual December ritual. What a wonderful experience it has been working on it with the legendary Gaybo from 1990. A decade later when Gay retired Brendan O’Carroll came on board ensuring the tradition will get to its golden anniversary on Tuesday December 24th. More golden radio moments ahead!’
