  • Snooze

    These types of podcasts, mostly aimed at middle aged women; are all the same. Such bland, repetitive content.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Evanne Ní Chuilinn "I turned off my light to be taken seriously"
Q: Where do you stand on the FAI's handling of the Ireland-Israel match?
She says the FAI should have taken a position after the draw rather than leaving players vulnerable to make decisions themselves. She criticizes the lack of independent support, sports psychology provision and athlete safeguarding, and says her committee questioning will focus on athlete welfare.
Evanne Ní Chuilinn "I turned off my light to be taken seriously"
Q: How did you end up in RTÉ in the sports department?
After broad communications studies at DCU, she completed a journalism and communications postgraduate course through Irish in Galway, then found work experience with an Irish-language sports production and applied to RTÉ during the lead-up to the 2004 Athens Olympics.
Kian Egan "Accept nothing but the fairy tale."
Q: How is Mark, and do we know if he has been diagnosed with something?
Egan says Feehily is doing okay but lacks the energy for the demanding tour. He describes recurring sepsis and pneumonia, and says Feehily is focused on recovering and living a normal life.
Kian Egan "Accept nothing but the fairy tale."
Q: Where did the idea to do this 25th anniversary tour come from, and why did you decide to make it so ambitious?
Egan says the band was always looking ahead, and its 25th anniversary was an occasion they felt they had to mark. Planning for the tour followed their previous tour.
Emma Doran "I'm a Dirty Little Show Off!"
Q: And had you never thought about stand up? You had thought about the presentory stuff, the TV, the radio.
I had thought about stand up but knew almost nothing about it; a producer suggested I give it a try, and I decided to start with a runner's mindset and learn on the job, which eventually led to my first gig.
