This Week's Late Late Show Line-Up Announced

Peter Casey will appear on the Late Late Show this week, hosted by Ryan Tubridy. Runner-up in the recent Presidential election, Casey acquired 20% of the votes despite his controversial views.

Former President Mary Robinson will be chatting with Tubridy on this Friday's show. She will discuss the effects of climate change, an important issue for Robinson as she established the Mary Robinson Foundation for Climate Justice to help the growing problem. Robinson will explain why she believes we at a significant point in the ongoing struggle to save the planet. She will also give her two cents on Ireland's future.

Jennifer Zamparelli is also set to join the couch. It was announced earlier this week that Zampaelli will be co-hosting Dancing With the Stars alongside Nicky Byrne. She is to replace Amanda Byram.

Limerick boxer and former world middleweight champion Andy Lee discusses his ascent through the ranks, growing up in the Traveller community in both England and Ireland and honing his craft.

Economist David McWilliams returns with new characters in his book Renaissance Nation. Sliotar Mom, Dad Bod and the Stovelanders are all featured in his new book. McWilliams will focus on the wholesale shift in the way normal people see and think about themselves, and how Ireland has gone from economic embarrassment to avocado toast in the space of a generation.

There will also be performances from The Blizzards and Phil Coulter.

The Late Late Show airs Fridays on RTÉ One at 9:35pm.
