- Outstanding Landmark Podcast
An outstanding podcast, recording one of the most important times in modern Ireland. You get to hear the background behind the signing of the Good Friday Agreement, from the people who were there.
Leave all the politically views aside on Bertie, this is a credit to him and a fitting record of his legacy, contributing to peace in N Ireland.
Well done.

This is a priceless record of a critically important period in Anglo Irish relations.
I am an Irish man who has lived in England from 1968. Currently on a Summer School history course in Marlborough Wiltshire. I am gobsmacked at the ignorance demonstrated by intelligent English people about the history of A/Ireland relations. I will be recommending this series tomorrow!
Thanks a lot.

Apple Podcasts1DondqqqIreland2 years ago - An excellent listen
I was 21 when the GFA was signed. Born in Belfast, I grew up in Dublin and was lucky to return to Belfast to work over the years. I can’t imagine what our small island would be like, had the troubles continued. This is an excellent account of the process and all those who contributed to bring peace.
