In this bonus episode of the Publin podcast, I speak with a few people who tell stories and experiences of working the docks of Dublin port and their lives growing up in the East Wall and Ringsend. This episode was recorded after a live event in December to celebrate a new exhibition called 'Solidarity, the dockers of Dublin port'.
My guests on this bonus episode shared some lively, poignant, and funny stories of their working lives and the communities in which they lived. Thanks to Paddy Nevins, John 'Miley' Walsh, Margaret Cullen, Declan Byrne, and Richard 'Boxer' Elliott.
