Joe Duffy, a prominent presenter on RTÉ, will leave the Liveline radio program at the end of June after 27 years hosting the show, which became a national staple. Duffy expressed gratitude for the trust of listeners, who shared their life stories on-air. His journey began in social work and student politics, leading to a successful media career. The Liveline program has been an influential platform for public discourse, famously attracting around 400,000 listeners, solidifying Duffy's legacy in Irish broadcasting.
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.
Public service has always been at its heart. And now, after many happy years, I've decided the time has come to move on.
