Gaybo presented the Late Late Show for 37 years before stepping down in 1999. During his time on the program he discussed many topics that were considered taboo to the people of Ireland at the time as well as introducing some of Ireland's biggest names including Tommy Tiernan and The Corrs.
So on this very sad day Ian and Mario sat down to pay tribute to the man that was Gay Byrne, reminiscing on a career spanning more than 6 decades.
