The Comeback with Daragh Fleming

Cork poet and writer Daragh Fleming joins Brenda for the first episode of the new series of The Comeback.

In this episode, he shares his journey into writing, from a young age to putting his work out into the world. He also reads two of his most powerful pieces, If I Ever Have Boys and If I Ever Have Girls.

Daragh speaks openly about living with depression without realising it, describing a time when he felt completely numb and thought that was normal.

A deeply emotional part of the conversation focuses on the loss of his best friend, Erbie, and how that moment changed his life, becoming a turning point that led him to speak more openly about mental health through his writing.
