- The Gerry Ryan Show (often referred to as The Ryan Show, The G. Ryan Show or GRS) was RTÉ 2fm's mid-morning radio show. Presented by Gerry Ryan until hours before his sudden death, it was launched in March 1988 and ran from nine until midday on weekday mornings. Described by the BBC as "a de facto forum for the nation, the radio equivalent of The Late Late Show on RTÉ television", the show, in its later years, popularised the satire of Nob Nation, spawned the cross-media event Operation Transformation and provided a launchpad for the career of Ryan Tubridy. Siobhan Hough was resident producer of the show. (en)

- Ryan attempts to explain to an irate caller, who is upset at the withdrawal of cervical vaccinations for schoolchildren, how ridiculous the proposition of government ministers giving up their state cars would be. He was adamant that such expenses were not to blame for the current recession that grips the Irish nation. (en)
- A 2008 promotion on The Gerry Ryan Show, "Aero Hunt For the Hunk" , led to this Ryan jest. Colm & Jim-Jim's response: "I hope this doesn't stick!". The catchphrase "You pick and we'll prick" was then adopted in reference to contestants picking a numbered balloon for the breakfast hosts to burst to see if it contained a prize. (en)
