Broadcasting from Q102’s brand new visualised studios in Dublin, Kathryn will helm breakfast on Dublin’s Q102, handing over to The Ryan Tubridy Show in association with Hyundai from 10am to 1pm, followed by Feel Good Afternoons with Liam Coburn from 1pm to 6.20pm.
Speaking about her new breakfast show, Kathryn said: “I’m absolutely thrilled to be joining Dublin’s Q102 and can’t wait to wake Dublin up every morning! We’ve been working hard over the last few weeks coming up with lots of ideas and building a show that I think Dubliners will truly love. As well as loads of brilliant tunes, there’s going to be plenty of fun, games and surprises to keep everyone entertained. Naturally it will evolve as I find my feet. It’s a big challenge but I’m relishing it. I’ve also been practicing the early morning starts and so far, I haven’t slept through my alarm clock once – so long may that last. The support from everyone at Dublin’s Q102 and the warm well-wishes from all over Dublin have been amazing. I’m so excited to get started!”
