The Meaning of Life with Gay Byrne
On RTÉ's The Meaning of Life, Gay Byrne has spoken with public figures about these questions and many others.
The Gaybo Revolution
It is no exaggeration to call Gay Byrne a colossus of the Irish broadcasting scene.

For 25 years, Gay Byrne received thousands of letters from listeners all over Ireland. Some of these letters were light-hearted and innocent, but others were more challenging.

Dear Gay is a sweeping handwritten history of a radically changed Ireland and a fitting tribute to Ireland's best-loved broadcaster.
