    47:05||Season 7, Ep. 15
    Never thought I'd get the chance to talk to a snooker legend like Ken, especially considering I can only pot the white when I am on the table!Got the chance to chat childhood, sport, retiring and more with the Dubliner in this chat.Ken talked about the sport that hooked him in as a kid and why he quit football for the pool table. He told me about the hard times leaving Dublin for London, and what it felt like to fail at his first big test.He talked about the £2 cue that brought him fame and fortune and how he is missing a trophy all these years later.But he told me of his proudest moment, in 1997, coming home to a hero's welcome and handing the winning trophy to his mam.AND I have a giveaway! If you want to go and see Ken live, email welltisyourself@gmail.com or contact me on Instagram. All thanks to Vivatbet for the exclusive tickets!!

  • 11. Tis Your Man from X Factor- Aiden Grimshaw: I've blocked a lot of X Factor out

    01:05:29||Season 7, Ep. 11
    2010 was a huge year for music, and a lot of it came from the X Factor. Matt Cardle, Mary Byrne, One Direction of course..and today's guest, Aiden Grimshaw. A fan favourite, his versions of Gold Digger, Mad World and more made him a household name. He released an album after leaving the show and then tells me why he slipped into the background, happier to be away from the scene. But now he is back, reclaiming his name, releasing his new single Talk (click HERE to hear it)We talk about why the show was like uni to him, why he has blocked a lot of it out, and what it is like to disappear when everyone knows your name. Loved having Aiden on. Hope you enjoy! If you are listening on Spotify, leave us a comment below!
