About this listen

A Few Scoops makes the news a little more manageable and lot more fun. Reporter Aoife Moore and comedian Colm O’Regan will each week offer their unique take on the most pressing news stories of the day, taking a not-always-serious look at the major events in Ireland and abroad. This is the news, but not as you’re used to.

Combining Aoife’s experience and insight honed from her time as a political correspondent breaking major stories from the heart of government, and Colm O’Regan’s unique comedic style, A Few Scoops brings analysis of the news that is always informed and insightful but never dull.

If you’re want to stay informed, but you’re feeling exhausted by the news cycle, join us for A Few Scoops.
