I was delighted to catch up with Tony Cantwell this week. He has created a new comedy series for RTE Player called Good Boy, which is based on his own experience of getting a late diagnosis of ADHD. I really loved the four-part-series, which features a who's who of contemporary Irish comedy and I think you will too. It launches next week on October 16th.

369. Catch Up with Miriam O'Callaghan
01:01:25||Season 1, Ep. 369Miriam O'Callaghan is iconic in the truest sense of the word, so I jumped at the chance to interview her before I had even read her book. Once I got my hands on it, though, I was even more excited for this conversation. Life, Work, Everything covers Miriam's whole life, from her family life growing up in Dublin to her life as a parent and of course her career. We cover a lot of ground in this episode, but honestly, I could have talked to her all day. I hope you enjoy.To support the podcast and access bonus episodes, join the community on Patreon here.

01:05:19||Season 1, Ep. 366I was honoured when Holly Cairns asked if I'd be up for chatting with her in her first sit down interview since she returned to Leinster House since giving birth on polling day last year. We discussed the reality of becoming a mother as a sitting TD and leader of the Social Democrats, and why she's keen to get more women and people from diverse backgrounds in to politics, as well as how she feels about the current anti-immigration discourse.
