The Mario Rosenstock Podcast

Ivan Yates reflects on success, failure, money, relationships and happiness through the twists of his own career. The episode covers his rise and collapse in bookmaking, his return as a broadcaster, his exit from Path to Power with Matt Cooper, and a lively debate on bankruptcy and personal responsibility.

Marco Pierre White joins for a wide-ranging conversation about food, restaurant life and the experiences that shaped him. The episode moves from his legendary career and rock-star-chef image to personal loss, rude diners and stories about famous friends.

Elaine Crowley talks about finally buying her own home after years of renting, and what it was really like navigating Ireland’s housing market alone. The episode also dips into Ireland AM, the future of live television, and a few gloriously unfiltered stories along the way.

Ryan Tubridy joins for a long-overdue catch-up that gets into the RTÉ controversy, reforming The Late Late, his move to London, therapy, and what comes next. Alongside the heavier topics, there’s plenty of nostalgia, broadcasting talk, and a classic Gift Grub detour.

Sophie Morris talks about challenging supermarket claims, the rise of “high protein” foods, and the marketing tactics shaping what people buy. She also shares her own food-business experience, from Ballymaloe training to a stressful supermarket deal and why she refuses brand money.
