''It's all about trust''

Helen Walshe is a flexible work specialist from EmployFlex, a flexible recruitment agency. They say they have been campaigning for Flexible Work long before it became fashionable!

With all these terms flying around like flexible, remote and Hybrid working it’s not easy to know what each one means and what rights you actually have as an employee so Helen joined Dermot and Dave to try and explain exactly what flexible working is and how we can ask our bosses to let us work where we want and when we want.

Look, we don't know how it happened either but there's actually...maybe, possibly, one or two good ones in there this week.

There's nothing quite as fun as when Dave strikes gold with his bad jokes. Except for when he's the only one laughing!

Grimace, groan and giggle along by clicking play above.

There’s nothing we love to do more than look at the generations that come before and after us and say they know NOTHING.

In particular, when it comes to dating, we like to think we’re the experts. But maybe, there’s something in listening to those younger, or older, than us.

A brand new dating show is looking at what we can learn from other people, and asking if they could find us love.

Two of the participants, Ross and Michael, spoke to Dermot and Dave about combining their experiences, what they learned from each other and if they found love in an ageless place!

It’s a moment of history for golf in Ireland, a moment of history for Irish women, and for Leona Maguire, a moment 17 years in the making.

The Cavan golfer became the first Irish woman to win on the LGPA tour and it follows on the heels of an absolutely incredible 2021 for Leona, and for countless other Irish women in sport.

Speaking to Dermot and Dave, Leona looked back on the long road to her first win, explained the importance of the relationship with her caddy and revealed what’s next.

And no, despite Dermot’s best efforts, she didn’t have many tips for him.

''I just thought there was something wrong with me, I didn't think it was actually the job''

[audio mp3="https://media.radiocms.net/uploads/2022/02/07124711/SarahShannon_0702.mp3"][/audio]

At the age of 31, Sarah Shannon decided to pack up and leave a very safe and secure job as a corporate lawyer in Dublin and ‘’listen to the wind’’ as she describes it. Sarah is now a Yoga Teacher based in sunny Portugal and hosts a number of retreats in the Algarve each year to help other Irish women listen to their wind.

Sarah Shannon joined Dermot and Dave live from the Algarve and explained how she felt when she decided to finally pack in a job she hated and she shares how you can also listen to the wind.

Even for the most tech savvy of parents, navigating around online safety can be tricky. Whether it's issues over screentime, access to certain websites and games or even trying to strike a balance between work and play, devices can cause a lot of rows.

Ahead of Safer Internet Day, Aoife Lee from Parent Support joined Dermot and Dave with some tips on how to strike a balance, and hopefully, keep your kids safe online.

Who hasn’t lashed some toothpaste on a break out? Or heard the expression ‘a base tan will prevent sunburn’.

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.

When you’re interviewing the most famous skateboarder in history, there really is only one option. To do the interview while skateboarding. Obvs. Tony Hawk joined Dermot and Dave this week, and Dermot joined Tony and Dave from his own board.

And it sounds like the two might actually get together for a skate when Tony comes to Ireland!

If there was a spike in rows around Ireland this week, we might have been at fault.  We, ahem, celebrated all of the small things that our partners/parents/housemates/friends do that drive us up the wall. Ireland had some thoughts, and they wanted to get things off their chests. We heard about everything from bad buttering etiquette to stripping down to jocks, and even using a loyalty card as floss.

Speaking of rows, Dave filled us in on why he was in BIG trouble with Tracy over, and what a flight simulator has to do with it.

We heard about the beach in Laois, the most extreme sport ever and caught up with our favourite lilting vegan from Clare who had a big announcement.

Noni joined us from the jungle of Columbia, Dermot said stuff that suits the music and Dave had some classic bad jokes.
