In this episode, Áine Tyrrell and I explore the path which presents itself to us, willing us forward despite fear, the poetry of the Irish language and how it affects our psyche, and the reconciliation we make with Irish history, oppression, and change.

"Áine Tyrrell is a force," says The Irish Times. A force of tenderness, ferocity, curiosity and intellect, all at the same time. It was a profound conversation with one of my favourite musicians.

Áine's unique perspective allows us reflect on the treasures of home, and the freedom which distance grants us. We talk about unleashing talents, and taking it step by step to a truer, freer way of being.

Áine has new music out soon. Check out her page for more!

Go raibh míle míle maith agat, a chara! Thanks a million, friend!

Agus míle buíochas do gach duine ag éisteacht linn - And a thousand gratitude to everyone listening to us!

Episode 8: Aoife Dunne -
Comedian, Storyteller, Teacher, Poet

Aoife’s acerbic and cathartic mix of humour, activism and poetry has garnered a global audience who enjoy and learn from her hilarious observations and deservedly furious rants.
We talk about growing up in Catholic, Postcolonial Ireland, and being women - not exactly conducive to creating confidence, but nevertheless Aoife chanelling that Queen Maeve energy, and taking every tumble and triumph to write her own story. We talk about the Irish wit and spirit, and the women who have inspired her.

Bain taitneamh as! Enjoy!

Go raibh maith agat as éisteacht! Thank you for listening :)
