I love Irish radio, so it’s great to be back on air six days a week especially with such an iconic station like Q102. It’s a real privilege to join their stellar weekday and weekend line-up of shows and presenters. Make sure to tune in for some great music, chats, and of course, plenty of fun along the way!”

Wireless Ireland MD Sean Barry says: “We are delighted to have Ryan as the new voice of mid-mornings on Dublin’s Q102 each weekday from 10am until 1pm. His talent as a broadcaster is unparalleled and he absolutely deserves a place on Irish airwaves. Dublin listeners and indeed listeners all across Ireland are looking forward to hearing Ryan broadcast again; as part of the Q102 line up and part of our broader network of stations at weekends, doing what he does best.

“Last year we kicked off a strategic repositioning project at Q102, so when we saw the opportunity open up with Ryan, it was perfectly timed for us. We’re looking forward to continuing to develop this repositioning project later this year.”
