Down To Business

When talking about Irish business, we often concentrate on large companies and multinationals, but what does Irish business actually look like on the ground?
Irish Independent Columnist Conor Skehan joined Bobby to see what really goes on behind the scenes in Ireland’s economy.

Communication expert and friend of the show Gina London joined Bobby to discuss her brand new book Amplify You: How to Connect More Powerfully in an AI World.

Ireland's Fittest Family continues to capture the public imagination, and showcase a thing or two about competition, leadership and performing under pressure.
While at the Ploughing last week, Bobby bumped into Davy Fitz and Andrew Trimble and spoke about what life is like after sport.

Joining Bobby to go through the main business stories from the Saturday papers are Louisa Meehan of Woodview HRM and Bob Hoffman of Vista Executive Search.

We have spent a lot of time talking about the technology industry and the extraordinary pace at which AI and other technologies are developing but what about the people whose job it is to keep up with all of it?
Tech journalism has changed dramatically in recent years, with journalists having to cover everything from AI and billion-euro investments to regulation, job losses and the impact of new technology on businesses and consumers.
So this week’s Industry Review, we’re going behind the headlines to find out what it’s actually like to be a technology journalist in 2026.
Joining Bobby to discuss:
Elaine Burke, Science and Tech Journalist and host of the For Tech's Sake Podcast
Charlie Taylor, Technology & Innovation Editor, Business Post
Ciara O'Brien, Business and Technology Journalist at The Irish Times.
