His broadcasting career with RTÉ spanned over two decades, where he presented many shows on radio and television, most notably ''The Late Late Show'' on RTÉ One from 2009 to 2023. Other shows he presented include RTÉ 2fm's ''The Full Irish'' (2004–2009) and ''Tubridy'' (2010–2015), RTÉ One's ''Tubridy Tonight'' (2004–2009), RTÉ Radio One's ''The Tubridy Show'' (2005–2010) and ''The Ryan Tubridy Show'' (2015–2023). He also hosted the Rose of Tralee contest on two occasions and worked for BBC Radio.
Tubridy wrote several books, including ''JFK in Ireland'', ''The Irish Are Coming'' and ''Patrick and the President''. He was known as the highest-paid person at RTÉ over several years; related controversies included his refusal to take a voluntary pay cut in 2009, and, most importantly for his career, in 2023 over misstatement of his total earnings and additional payments, at least some made via a costly "barter account" mechanism. The latter scandal led to RTÉ dispensing with Tubridy's services in August 2023. Provided by Wikipedia
