This week on The Ryan Tubridy Show, Ryan is joined by author Adam Higginbotham who wrote the new book, Challenger: A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space. Adam and Ryan have a fascinating discussion about how the American public actually supported even more space travel, despite the tragic incident.

We also chatted to Vogue Williams ahead of her keeping the seat warm whilst Ryan is on holiday next week, and heard all about how she is preparing for Glastonbury in style. PLUS actor and comedian Paul Whitehouse popped in to tell Ryan all about his new four-part series 'Paul Whitehouse's Sketch Show Years' which premiered on Gold this week!

...And of course we squeeze in the usual smorgasbord of silliness!
