Joining Mario this week to take a look at how moments in societal change can dominate the charts was comedian Fred Cooke. Fred took us through some of those songs that reflected a nations mood at one particular moment in time. "Ding Dong!, The Witch is Dead" performed by The Munchkins from The Wizard of Oz. This song entered the UK Charts the week Margaret Thatcher died. "Killing in the Name". This song was a UK Christmas No 1 in 2009, beating Ex Factors beating McElderry's balled, The Climb. This chart topper was organised by a facebook campaign to challenge the monopoly of the Christmas no. 1 always going to TV talent show winners. "Roll over Beethoven". This song was released in 1956, the song is an imperative directed at the composer Ludwig van Beethoven to roll over in his grave in reaction to the new genre of music that Berry was promoting. "Running The World" by Jarvis Cocker. Nearly made a Christmas No 1 this year just after Tories won the UK Election. "Come out you Black and Tans" by the Wolfe Tones. This song went to number 1 this year in the UK and Ireland in reaction to a now cancelled commemoration of the Royal Irish Constabulary.

We rebelled in Riverdance and made vow sheds looked cool; we got one over on the age-old enemy and watched as the fall of Communism effectively Com-blocked ya from ever claiming a 4/5 again... We talk banking employees with talent; Johnny Logan; getting days off work; Johnny Logan; losing the plot; Johnny Logan; forgetting lyrics, political controversies and animal shelters. And Johnny Logan. We drag Fred into this mess by forcing him to pick favorites, sing on cue and generally confuse things altogether by mish-mashing and celeb bashing...

Dancing with the Stars is one of the country’s most popular TV shows and not only does it showcase the skill of dancers and dancing, the fitness involved is something to greatly admire. On this week’s Real Health episode I caught up with two of the celebrity contestants and their professional dance partners - The Young Offenders star, Demi Isaac Oviawe and her dance partner Kai Widdrington, as well as comedian, Fred Cooke, and his dance partner, Giulia Dotta – to find out what their training regime is like as well getting some of the behind-the-scenes gossip. Having signed up for a crash course in dancing myself a few years ago and only lasting twenty minutes (!) I know how hard it is physically and it was fascinating to hear how Demi and Fred were coping with the demands of the show. “It’s the most nerve-wracking thing I’ve done in my life,” Fred told me. “There’s no room for mistakes and I’m a stand-up comedian! I have it easy when I’m telling new jokes.” For Demi, who is also studying for her Leaving Cert, it wasn’t something she jumped into lightly. “I spent weeks of thinking whether to do it or not,” says Demi. “I’m trying to do my Leaving Cert and I was having to move away from home but then I said ‘screw it, I’ll do it’.” Tune in to RTE 1 on Sunday at 6.30pm if you want to see how the contestants get on.

"We can't end a comedy podcast with 'And then he died'" This week of Up To 90 is a very special episode, as we come to you live and uncensored from Liberty Hall in our Dublin Podcast Festival double-header aver the wonderful 'Dubland'. With musical intros from Fred Cooke, we invited our panel of hilarious guests in to talk everything nineties - from ninja turtles to Riverdance to all things foreign-currency, this episode took many expected twists and turns, punctuated by some serious dance moves and sing-along moments. Just why does Tralee Mc Donald's have a sign specifying only cars may avail of drive-thru service? Ronan Grace explains the notice that has baffled thousands of Happy Mealers for decades. What had the Rvierdancer troops dropping like flies immediately prior to their showstopping Eurovision performance? Pauline Shanahan fills us in. And Owen Colgan of 'Hardy Bucks' fame tells us why children of Roscommon really emphasised with mutant reptiles living in sewers. This episode is special. Very special. In fact, it could easily be the most special podcast episode ever recorded. Prepare to hear Liberty Hall get floored by our journalistic bravery, and the whopper amount of facts and figures that cement our status as the most highly researched media venture ever embarked upon. By the most dedicated researchers. Perhaps the most dedicated of all time..... *Please note this episode contains no research and no actual bravery. If you're either Jean Butler or a talking turtle please get in touch with us exclusively on Twitter and Insta @Upto90Podcast. Also we are absolutely dying to hear the mad places you've bought towels (just listen to it and you will TOTALLY get that top-shelf joke)
