It's Tuesday, which means it's Dave's World Bad Joke Tuesday. They are called Bad Jokes for a reason, some of these are terrible. But you seem to love them so who cares!

Even Irish footballing legend Kevin Kilbane gets in on the action.

Have you ever questioned your own sanity? If you have, you’re not alone. In fact, most of us will think we’re going ‘mad’ at some point in our lives.

But what is mad, who decides who is mad and who is not and how do we define it?

Brendan Kelly is one of Ireland’s most well-known psychiatrists with a CV that’d put most of us to shame.

He’s taking a look at the concept of the mental illness in his brand new book ‘In Search of Madness’. Brendan travelled around the world, and through time to try and figure out what makes us tick, and how we can best look after ourselves.

Brendan joined Dermot and Dave to take us through what he found, and what he think he needs to change.

When it comes to scorpions, the bigger the better. Small one bites you, don't keep it to yourself.

He's a true legend of the fictional archaeological world, and it turns out, he knew a thing or two about scorpions.

Brand new Irish research has put this famous movie quote to the test, and Dr Michel Dugon from the Venom Systems and Proteomics Lab at National University of Ireland Galway joined Dermot and Dave to explain all!

How’s your attention span? Have you made it to the end of this sentence and now you’re reaching for your phone and forgetting what you were reading in the first place?

It seems like all of our attention spans have gradually been depleted over the past couple of years, and it was summed up by an email we got into [email protected] recently.

Hey lads, is it just me or do you find that your attention spans are shot? Even when I’m on my phone, I find myself forgetting what I was reading, or looking at a load of different things and then never remembering what I saw. I’m sure my phone is the problem but it’s something I hate’.

In a Mind Yourself Now special, neuroscientist, author of ‘Beating Brain Fog’ and the host of the ‘Superbrain’ podcast Sabina Brennan joined Dermot and Dave to explain what’s going on and what you can do to improve it.

A recent survey has found that there are nearly 40,000 ‘Zombie’ cars on Irish roads, that’s over €300 million worth.

[audio mp3="https://media.radiocms.net/uploads/2022/04/25113128/Shane_ZombieCars_2504.mp3"][/audio]

The cars often look fine but could be hiding a dangerous history beneath the bonnet.  As the price of second hand cars increase, people could be paying above the odds for a car that could cause an awful lot of hassle down the line.

Car history company MotorCheck have done a huge amount of work across the border and in the UK to trace down how many ‘zombie cars’ are in Ireland.

Shane Teskey from MotorCheck joined Dermot and Dave to explain what makes a zombie car, the dangers of them and how to make sure that you’re driving the safest possible car.

It has been almost sixty years since Marilyn Monroe died at the age of just 36, but she remains a cultural icon around the world.

[audio mp3="https://media.radiocms.net/uploads/2022/04/26090803/Telly_25041.mp3"][/audio]

Over the past 60 years, her death has been the source of conspiracy theories and rumours but now, a new documentary will be releasing previously unknown and unheard information.

In Maria's Telly, our resident telly expert (and Marilyn Monroe obsessive!) Maria gave us her take on the new series as well as her picks of the week!

For Maria's Telly, Our Eimear stepped in to tell us all what on the box this weekend. As she said herself, it's all about the streaming services this weekend.

Missed some of your favourite bits during the week? Want to catch up on the craic from Dermot and Dave? Well look no further than the Dermot and Dave Best Of podcast, your home for all of the messing with none of the music!

[audio mp3="https://media.radiocms.net/uploads/2022/04/14130026/0414_Final.mp3"][/audio]

Whether you’re on a drive, out on a walk, getting stuck into the gaff or garden or looking for a bit of distraction from work, the Dermot and Dave Best of podcast has just some of our favourite moments from the week gone by!

Just because it’s a short week doesn’t mean we didn’t manage to cram a whole lotta craic in!

There was the distant sound of wedding bells when we caught up with the very newly wed Olympian and all round legend, Kellie Harrington. She filled us in on her big day, honeymoon plans and revealed that she’s planning on retiring at 34, but keeping up with the training…for cakes and takeaway purposes. She’s a woman after our own hearts.

We’d a bunch of Hollywood stars on the show, the cast of Anatomy of a Scandal, including Sienna Miller joined Dermot and Dave to reveal all about the brand new Netflix show.

Aine Duffy told us about finding out that Billie Eilish is actually her cousin, and we heard some (pretty dubious) accounts of celeb relatives.

And we heard from an anonymous listener who got himself into a hot polo neck after an ‘accidental’ hickey from his missus.

Dave broke into Dermot’s gaff, Dermot’s dreaming about Bono again and our Cathal is very excited about the start of the GAA championship.

Plus all your faves from Dave’s Bad Jokes to Say Stuff That Suits The Music and our Noni, live from Augusta.

It's Thursday so it's time to have a chat with Limerick's favourite Chaaawwwklit seller Noni Considine. It's Easter which is a busy time for our Noni, and this year she has some very questionable eggs.

Although, she has gone to trouble of naming some of her eggs after the counties of Ireland, forever thoughtful is our Noni.
