Although the prices of Easter Eggs are increasing, the size of them seems to be decreasing more and more each year. To explain this recent trend, RTÉ Business reporter, Adam Maguire, joined Florence in studio!

Hygiene is a critical part of our daily life, but sometimes people can't afford to buy all the hygiene products they need, so Cathal headed down to one school in Dublin that was hoping to help wash away that problem, by taking part in a donation drive!

And there was heartbreak for the boys in green as Ireland lost out to Czechia on penalties in the World Cup 2026 Play-offs.
