We've not travelled forward in time, taken a photo of proceedings, and transported ourselves back to realtime to bring you our findings. Of course not. That would be impossible. Fun, but impossible. We'd come back with liquified bones and what not.

Silliness aside, Ryan and his peeps got a live studio audience together to enjoy Will Ferrell's and Mark Wahlberg's stint in the Late Late Show set earlier this week. 

On Friday, we'll see the A-listers talked about their Irish roots, Wahlberg's lunch/dinner with Rory McIlroy and having drinks with a herd of Irish Dads - competition winners making the most of a night away from their little darlings - who were looking for Brad Pitt to come join the party.

"There were posters of me and Will on the wall and this guy was like: ‘is Brad Pitt coming?’" Wahlberg tells Ryan. When he replied that Brad Pitt was definitely not coming, the eager Dad pressed on asking: “Are you sure?" They didn’t want to go to the movie, they just wanted to get pissed! They were like: we can see it when it comes out, we can buy a proper ticket!"

We can then expect to see a sterling impression of a pissed Irish dad by Will Ferrell. He's a pro. 

Ferrell and Wahlberg are part of a star studded line-up on this week’s The Late Late Show - which airs (as always) on Friday, at 9:35pm, RTE1 - with more guests to be revealed later in the week.
