On Friday, Fiona got a call from Ray Foley that changed her life in an instant. Fiona from Louth joins Alison to chat about becoming €312,000 richer — and why it still doesn’t feel real!!

Fiona, who works at a pharmacy in Dunleer, shares how the win couldn’t have come at a better time as she and her boyfriend Connor renovate a cottage and how they were saving so hard to make the ever growing list of work required.

Plus: Connor turned 30 this weekend! And a brilliant shout-out to the team at Donald McGoey Pharmacy who were there to share her amazing moment.

The brand new season of Is It Cake? Halloween dropped on Netflix this weekend and we have one of the stars of the show! Her name is Corinna Maguire and she is an award-winning baking artist based in Oranmore in Galway!!

Corinna says the tv show is one of the most fun experiences she has had and it is a true joy behind the scenes. She chats about growing up between Ireland and Alberta and why baking became her much-needed creative outlet.

Corinna has won numerous Gold medals at international cake decorating competitions and been named one of Ireland and the UK’s Best Cake Decorators.

She is known for making over-the-top, eye-catching, sculptural cakes. YES! That hippo is a cake! Her Instagram is filled with the most insane, incredible creations.
