Mr. Duffy announced his departure after 37 years at RTÃ and 27 years hosting Liveline. He expressed gratitude for the trust listeners placed in him, sharing their livesâ stories, struggles, and victories. He emphasized the importance of public service at RTÃ, stating it has been a privilege to connect with the audience. With fond memories and appreciation for those who tuned in regularly, Mr. Duffy feels now is the time to move on to new endeavors, cherishing the relationships built during his tenure.
"After 37 wonderful years here in RTÃ, and 27 years presenting Liveline, it has been an incredible honour and privilege to be part of a programme that relied entirely on trust - the trust of our listeners," Mr Duffy said.
"People felt they could pick up the phone, ring Liveline, and share their lives, problems, stories sad, bad, sometimes mad and funny, their struggles, and their victories. I never took that for granted, not for a single minute."
"RTÃ has been a great place to work. Public service has always been at its heart. And now, after many happy years, I've decided the time has come to move on."
"I would like to thank you the listener, for tuning in each and every day - it has been an honour to sit in this seat and hear your stories."
