Doireann and Friends

'The fours are thinking they're nines', and who smoked who?

Season 1, Ep. 1

I can't believe we're finally here! This podcast is something I’ve been thinking about, planning, teasing for months and now I’m so glad to be kicking off. On this first show, the wonderful Pamela Joyce is in to chat about “the fours thinking they're nines” and other problems with Irish dating apps. I’m also joined by bae (aka Mark Mehigan). We thrash out our origin story and attempt to get to the bottom of who “smoked” who. 


Doireann and Friends is brought to you by F&F Fashion at Tesco.

  • 12. Season Finale with my Mom

    30:21||Season 2, Ep. 12
    It's the Season 2 Finale! Thank you, sincerely, for all of the love this season. It means so much. I thought it would be nice to wrap it up with a chat with my Mom, Clare. We had the loveliest trip to Spain recently and I managed to twist her arm into coming back on the podcast (she was a nervous wreck last year!). I hope you enjoy. Catch you when The Laughs Of Your Life returns this September!

    37:50||Season 2, Ep. 10
    As I type this, Bonjour! A European adventure has commenced for Mark and I but it’s biz as usual for Doireann and Friends. It was a joy to catch up with the legend that is Dermot Whelan for this week’s episode. He is just a hilarious, humble, happy human! I think there is so much to gain from listening to him, and know you’ll love it. The icon that is Pamela Joyce brings us her final Pam Readings of the season. Enjoy x

    We’re 3/4s of the way there! HOW?! This season is flying which can only be a good sign. On this week’s episode I chat about the 3 things that drove me mad this week. I know, a Monday rant is a negative start but I needed this vent! The fabulous Samantha Barry joins me to update me on all things Glamour (yes, a capital G) in NYC including her apartment purchase and her Met Gala insider info. Aisling Bonner is back and calls for an Emergency General Meeting, as only she could. Enjoy!

    My love for a Spanish pharmacy knows no bounds. It’s a niche topic, I know, but I’ve fallen hard for them since last week. Also if you’re heading away this Summer, I have some tips for you at the start of this week’s ep! Clémentine MacNeice talks all things styling; her love for it, how she got into it and what we should all do to look our very best. Allison Keating is back to answer a listener question around the topic of jealousy amongst friends. Enjoy!
  • 6. Turning into my mom, Vicki Notaro, and Doireann and Foes is back

    31:46||Season 2, Ep. 6
    I’m writing this episode description from Spain…as smug as can be. Last time I was here if rained for 11 days (have I mentioned that) so being here in sunshine, with my Mom, is heavenly. This week I’m joined by the fabulous Vicki Notaro - best selling debut novelist of 2024 if you don’t mind! We talk reality tv, taking life leaps and lots more. Aisling Bonner is back with Doireann and Foes. It’s a gorge ep if I say so myself!

    I say this at the start of the ep and I’ll say it again! Thank you so much for all of the love this season. The pod is growing and growing in listeners which means you’re liking, sharing, even loving this season! So thank you so much. This week I chat being back to the gym and being on the bridesmaid dresses hunt. I’m joined by the BEAUTIFUL (inside and out) Katja Mia and the one and only Pamela Joyce is back. This time, she’s giving us ‘Pam Readings’ where she tells us what’s in and what’s out for Summer 2024. Let me know what you think! 
  • 4. Moving to Oz? Is Love Island dead? And knocking uncertainty on the head

    36:14||Season 2, Ep. 4
    Episode 4. Welcome back! I’ve been loving following Grainne Gallanagh on instagram. She has been living in Oz for just over a year working a FIFO (Fly In Fly Out) job and I needed to hear all. I strongly advice you watch her reels on Insta before listening to the episode…she rocks the uniform but the flies?! HELL. Allison Keating is back and our listener question today is about overcoming the fear of uncertainty in life. As always, Allison offers up so much help. Would love to know your thoughts on the episode - email us, doireannandfriends@gmail.com
