Ireland’s Gone Completley Bonkers. Niall and AJ week 005 . Episode 792

On this week’s News Round Up, Niall is joined by his good friend and former producer AJ Walsh to take a look back at the biggest stories making headlines over the past week, some deeply serious, others downright bizarre.

They discuss the guilty verdicts against Sir Jeffrey Donaldson and Lady Eleanor Donaldson, the growing calls to decriminalise all drugs for personal use, and the debate over whether single sex schools have a future in Ireland.

The conversation also turns to some of the week’s lighter stories, including the Kentucky criminals caught with a bag labelled “Definitely Not a Bag Full of Drugs”, the cow that brought the M1 motorway to a standstill, the latest cosmetic craze dubbed “Ozempic Ears”, and new technology that could allow your car to decide whether you’re fit to drive.

With plenty of laughs, a few disagreements and their usual honest opinions, Niall and AJ separate the serious from the ridiculous as they wrap up another unforgettable week in the news.
