Mooney was the 18th most listened-to radio programme in Ireland.[2] It was presented by Brenda Donohue or Aonghus McAnally[3] when Derek Mooney was absent. Its predecessor programme, Mooney Goes Wild, was known for its coverage of nature and the later programme featured web broadcasts of blue tits nesting and hatching. In 2009, Mooney's blue tits nested live online in the gardens of President Mary McAleese.
