On this morning’s Gift Grub, Ray goes live to the Cheltenham track where Des Scahill is calling the first race of the day — only it’s not horses thundering up the straight, it’s Ireland’s greatest songs in a full-blown musical steeplechase.Christy Moore, Damien Rice, Bagatelle, U2, Snow Patrol, The Cranberries, Thin Lizzy, Pat Shortt, Ronan Keating and even the Wolf Tones all charge for the line.

The Late Late Show is off this Friday, and on this morning’s Gift Grub, that news sends Ian and Daniel into a proper spin.Daniel is absolutely flipping furious — not because he loves it… but because he needs it. How are people meant to “hate watch” it on socials if it’s not even on? And all because there’s a rugby match on another channel, hours earlier.
Remote work means you barely see your colleagues anymore… so when everyone finally rocks back into the office, it’s all “Howya! You’re looking well!” On this morning’s Gift Grub, the compliments are flying as Gerry, Alan, Sheila, Marcus and the gang reveal their “secrets” — giving up biscuits, “extreme Lent”, paddle (three times a day!) and even Tai Chi. But when the weight loss stories start getting a bit too perfect, the truth comes out in classic Gift Grub style… and it ends with a full-blown musical confession.
