I got to sit and chat to an Irish sporting icon this week. For an hour we spoke about everything from his lack of confidence as a child, the “counseling” he received in 2008, what it was like to become an overnight success, the difficulty in trying to analyze the performance of players that used to be your team mates and of course Conor McGregor’s confidence. You can hear the whole thing here if you’re on an iPhone and here if you’re on an Android. But there’s more!

Our deadly sponsor Currency Fair have given me a VIP trip to the Ireland versus Wales game at the Aviva Stadium on February 7th. I’m not just bragging about a cool thing I got. They want me to give it to you! All you have to do to win it is listen to the episode and follow the simple instructions. Best of luck.

I’ve also added a load of new tour dates including Oslo, Manchester and Cardiff. Come to a show. It’s good stuff.

We did the first print run of my newest range of Christmas cards yesterday. You’ll still be able to get the golden oldies but now there’s 10 brand new designs for 2015. I think they’re some of the best yet. The cards are printed on even better quality paper stock, include even better envelopes and faster delivery than ever before. Go and have a browse. If there’s a specific card(s) you fancy, just stick a note in the box when you order an we can make up a pack with just those ones in it. Nearly all the money from the cards goes towards funding the podcast. The rest will be put towards buying biscuits and Lego more than likely.

Tonight’s the night. My first ever solo show in London’s glittering West End. If you haven’t already got your tickets we have held some back for the door. You can pre-book here http://leicestersquaretheatre.ticketsolve.com/shows/873530210/events

Oh…and the new Christmas cards are about to go on sale. For now you can buy the old ones at the same old price from the shop here at jigser.com.

You’ve heard the podcast now see the standup. Or you’ve seen the standup and you’ve heard the podcast and now you want more of the standup. Or you’re completely unaware of either of these things and just fancy a night out in the swanky west end of London town! Whatever the case, you need to buy your ticket for October 30th at Leicester Square Theatre. Tickets are selling out fast and the last thing we want is for you to be out in the cold on the night when you assumed you could just buy them on the door. Tickets are a mere £12.50.

Parts one and two of the Tommy Tiernan conversation went straight to number one in the podcast charts. If you haven’t heard them yet, go to iTunes or Soundcloud to download. You won’t regret it. Tommy knocked my socks off. Just an amazing man, a poet and innovator in comedy. It was a high point of the series so far.

The 100th Episode Of The Podcast will take place at the Edinburgh Fringe on August 17th. Tickets are only £8 and almost sold out.
