It's Giving Comedy Gold

Shane is joined by twenty two year old Ellie Dunn who people will know from community radio college life and her time on First Dates Ireland. Ellie starts by opening up about the moment that pushed her onto the show after a guy told her she needed a nose job. It hurt her more than she realised and she speaks honestly about how that shaped her confidence.

She talks about her first match on the show where they are now and how the relationship that followed turned into something she stayed in even though she knew it was wrong. Ellie explains why she stayed with someone who was love bombing her even when it was toxic from the start. She shares how he cheated on her and how her story blew up her TikTok. The video went viral and it is still pinned on her page.

Ellie speaks very openly about getting used to bad treatment from boys and looking back now wondering why she accepted any of it. She also talks about the moment that pushed her back to First Dates Ireland for a second time. After seeing a guy for two years he went on a boys holiday for eight days and did not contact her once.

She then talks about her love life now. Ellie says she loves love but love has not always been kind to her. Shane drags her into the nitty gritty and gets the full story of who she is seeing today. She even tells him about her dear diary where she writes down every date she goes on what the date was like what happened and what the downfall was. It is honest and very Ellie.

Ellie also chats about college. She is studying to become an SNA and shares why she feels so strongly about the work. Shane jumps in with his own story about needing an SNA in school and the whole moment is really lovely. She talks about her passion for community radio the shows she makes and why she loves the buzz of it.

She also shares that she has a part coming up as an extra in a movie. Ellie has taken acting classes and she is the kind of girl who will try anything that interests her and back herself every time.

And the stories. Ellie keeps them coming. From failing her driving test again and again and ending up in a bush to the wild story about her childhood hamster. She buried it thinking it was dead then found out it had been hibernating. She dug it back up and by then it really was gone. It is the kind of story that has you laughing and wincing at the same time.

The vibe between Shane and Ellie is unreal. The two of them are pure entertainment from start to finish. I laughed the entire way through this one.
