AL Porter announced as Today FM’s new lunchtime show host
Tallaght comedian Al Porter is set to host the lunchtime show on Today FM, it has been revealed.
Having already had a stint on RTE 2fm with Colm Hayes, Porter will fill the slot made free by Dermot and Dave who have moved to an earlier time on the commercial station.

Al had a phenomenal 2016, selling out shows in venues across the country and further afield.
Several appearances on television have also helped to boost the much-loved comedian’s profile, and the move to Today FM will surely only increase his fan-base further.
Speaking about the new role live on the Dermot and Dave Show this morning Porter said: “I really want it to be light and very good, I don’t just want to go down the news line.
“I considered calling it the Al Porter breakfast Show because I only get up at 12:30pm anyway.”
