Three massive episodes in three week. One with maybe the greatest Irish footballer ever, another with the snooker’s most iconic character and the final one, a gala event to raise thousands for a charity like no other.
Episode 300 with Aisling Bea, RoisÃn Conatty, Laura Whitmore, Niall Breslin and Angela Scanlon is but days away. Join us for this one of a kind night to celebrate the Irish, this huge milestone and the London Irish Centre Charity. It all goes down this Saturday at 7.45pm. Don’t gamble and try to walk up. You won’t get in. Buy a ticket now, while there’s still some left.
Getting Dennis Taylor on the podcast was a goal I had since it began back in 2013. 6 years later, Ken Doherty helped to make the dream a reality. His story of going from playing snooker once a week in Coal Island to being a top ten player in the world five years later is something else. On the other end of the spectrum, John Giles explains how he was a cult figure in Irish street football by the age of 10! He welcomed me into his home in Birmingham on a wet afternoon and we talked about overcoming loneliness, had some laughs about nonsense data analysis in football and lots more.
