    Dave O'Connor immigrated to Australia, Mary McGill has some Micky mouse university job. Feargal D'Arcy is getting an odd bank holiday weekend fill-in at 2fm

    Barbara Nic Dhonnacha was on Galway Bay FM drive for a couple of months last year but didn't last very long. Tommy Tiernan presents an interview show on RTÉ One. Sports reporter Tulsenn Tollett works for BBC Sport in Salford.

    This too shall pass.

    Barbara was on GB FM about 8-9 months. Departed without warning. Bit strange, wonder what happened there.

    Mark Cunning - strong northern accent, he presented the mid morning show for several years and I think he’s still there behind the scenes.

    “Ferg” D’Arcy, I thought he’d get a regular gig with 2FM after the recent exodus but no mention of him. So it seems he’s way down the pecking order there.

    Fergal seems to have weekend mid afternoons now that Afric is on weekday Breakfast.

    This too shall pass.

    does he though? He’s not listed on the schedule as far as i can see. Conor Behan is down for the Sat and Sun afternoon slots.

    I had a lookup of Dave O'Connor. He moved to states after getting a radio job and married an American lady whom he has a child with.

    He has since gave up radio and working with nonprofit helping them rise money
