This week, Ryan is the boss.
Or at least he’ll be chatting with The Boss himself, Bruce Springsteen, as the Late Late Show leaves Ireland for the first time in 30 years.
You can find out more about that interview here and see the line-ups of both shows in full below.
The Late Late Show
Jeremy Paxman
Easily one the most famous and influential journalists in the UK, Paxman will discuss his troubled relationship with his father and making some of the most powerful people in Britain feel uncomfortable on Newsnight.
Rob and Marian Heffernan
In a week where he became the first Irish athlete to be presented with an Olympic medal on home soil, Rob Heffernan and his wife and coach Marian will chat to Ryan about a four-year wait for the medal and their long road to success.
Vogue Williams
Vogue has a new TV show coming out, Vogue Williams: On the Edge and she’ll be telling the nation what it’s all about, with topics as wide-ranging as transgender identity and internet drugs.
Don O’Neill
Designer Don O’Neill will be talking about dressing some of the most famous women in the world, including Oprah, and will be showing off some of his stunning creations.
Pornography discussion
Taoiseach Enda Kenny recently spoke of the need to have a national conversation about pornography and what better place to start than the Late Late show?
Sexologist Emily Power Smith and columnists Brenda Power and Ian O’Doherty will debate if that conversation is necessary, the impact of pornography on young people and whether action is needed.
