Justin McCarthy, 48, grew up in Rochestown, Co Cork. He’s named after his father, Cork’s famous All Ireland-winning hurler (1966) and coach (1984). He began his career in radio working for Cork’s 96FM in 1999, and later as a reporter for Cork’s Red FM. He was a political correspondent for Today FM for several years before joining RTÉ in 2013. He is a co-presenter of Morning Ireland, weekdays 7am-9am on RTÉ Radio 1.
