When does "minding your own business" turn into being a bad friend? On this heated edition of Word on the Street, Zweli tackles a messy moral crossroads that has the entire city divided. A listener noticed that his friend was treating his girlfriend terribly and actively cheating on her, leaving him stuck in the ultimate gray area: do you speak up to protect an innocent person, or do you stay out of it to respect the "friend code"? The lines lit up as the 947 family weighed in on the heavy complexities of the situation. Some listeners argue that staying quiet makes you complicit in the lie, while others swear that getting involved in another couple's drama is a fast track to losing your friend entirely. We break down the unwritten rules of relationship etiquette, the definition of true loyalty, and how to navigate the fallout when the truth finally comes out. Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture. Hear what the Word on the Street is, test your skills with the high-pressure 6 Out of 6, and get ready to be entertained.

This week's Word On The Street is a PHENOMENAL chat with former professional road racing cyclist, Imogen Cotter.

The festival will feature a full programme of cycling events around Grand Canal Square, including family rides, BMX and polo bike demonstrations, and Cycling Ireland's National Criterium Championships.

We’ve all had that moment of cold sweat when a handle turns but the door doesn't budge. On this episode of Word on The Street, Zweli shares a legendary (and slightly embarrassing) story about getting locked in a bathroom at a friend's house—proving that even being a radio star doesn't save you from a faulty latch. We’re opening the lines to the 947 family to hear about the "sticky spots" you’ve found yourselves in. From the claustrophobic dread of a stalled elevator to the classic childhood trauma of being accidentally locked in your own bedroom, we explore the creative (and often desperate) ways people have found their way back to freedom. It’s a laugh-out-loud conversation about the fine line between "staying calm" and "complete MacGyver-style panic." If you’ve ever had to climb out of a window or wait for a locksmith while in your pajamas, this one is for you! Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture.

Does your dog have a taste for expensive tech or high-end upholstery? On this episode of Word on The Street, Zweli gets real about the chaotic side of dog ownership. From his own Labrador’s expensive appetite for AirPods and a literal car bumper, we explore the hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking reality of living with a furry "demolition crew". We hear from the 947 listeners who have lived through the unthinkable—from a pup that successfully pulled off a KFC heist to another that decided the curtains and blinds were a five-course meal. We also break down the two distinct camps of dog owners: the ones who insist their "fur-baby" could do no wrong, and the ones who have the receipts (and the chewed-up remotes) to prove the truth. It’s a laugh-out-loud celebration of the mischief that makes dog ownership an unpredictable adventure. Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli.

Was your high school experience "normal," or did the police once show up for a surprise raid?
Have you ever been "blue-ticked" by a plumber while your kitchen was underwater?
Is your best friend’s sibling the love of your life, or just a one-way ticket to a very awkward Sunday lunch?

It’s a conversation every parent needs to hear. On this episode of Word on The Street, Zweli dives into the serious health concerns surrounding highly caffeinated energy drinks. We’re reacting to the devastating news of a 17-year-old athlete who lost her life to caffeine-induced cardiomyopathy—an enlarged heart caused by excessive stimulant intake. We’re looking past the bright colors and "wellness" marketing of brands like Alani Nu to discuss the real impact on young bodies. Zweli reflects on her own childhood "sugar curfews" and asks the 947 family: What are the rules in your house? From listeners who ban energy drinks entirely to those struggling to manage their teens' gym-culture habits, we explore the importance of mindful consumption. It’s a raw look at how a simple choice in the fridge can have life-altering consequences, and why "better-for-you" branding isn't always what it seems. Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture.

What’s in a name? Apparently, a whole lot of drama! On this edition of Word on The Street, Zweli is getting personal about the "wild" names her parents almost saddled her with—including the truly questionable "Receding Hairline" and the oddly rhythmic "David During." > We’re diving into the stories that shape our identity from day one. We hear from listeners who were named after 80s power ballads, and one caller whose aunt "helpfully" registered their name at home while their mom was still in a post-labor nap! From names that were meant to be a tribute to names that were just a result of late-night exhaustion, we explore how these labels impact our lives. It’s a hilarious, relatable conversation about the power of a name and the "close calls" that could have changed everything. Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli.
