In this episode, I sit down for a chat with two inspiring and hardworking young men from Tipperary, Conor Bourke and Conor O’Brien, who took the leap and set up their own carpentry business, Bourke O’Brien Woodcraft.
What started out as two young lads with a passion for their trade has grown into a successful business, now employing two additional people. It’s fantastic to see young people with the drive, ambition and work ethic to go out on their own, build something from the ground up and create employment along the way.
Conor and Conor are a real inspiration and a great example of what can be achieved through hard work, determination and a bit of belief in yourself. It’s also brilliant to see the carpentry industry thriving and young tradesmen making a name for themselves through quality craftsmanship and dedication to their work.
A great chat with two down-to-earth lads who have a bright future ahead of them. Fair play to them both, and I wish them every success as their business continues to grow!

A brother’s fight for answers, justice and a public inquiry.
In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I am joined in studio by Dermot Horkan, brother of the late Detective Garda Colm Horkan, who was tragically murdered while on duty in Castlerea, Co. Roscommon, in June 2020.
Colm’s murder shocked the nation, devastated his family and left a lasting impact on An Garda Síochána and communities across Ireland.
But for his brother Dermot, the story is far from over.
In this emotional and thought-provoking conversation, Dermot opens up about the devastating loss of his brother, the impact Colm’s death has had on their family, and his ongoing campaign for a public inquiry into the circumstances surrounding Colm’s murder.
Dermot explains why he believes important questions remain unanswered, what he hopes a public inquiry would uncover, and why he is determined to continue fighting for answers.
This is more than a conversation about a horrific crime. It is a story about family, grief, unanswered questions and a brother’s determination to ensure that Colm’s life, service and sacrifice are never forgotten.
Why is Dermot calling for a public inquiry, and what answers is he still seeking?
An important, heartfelt interview that deserves to be heard.
Rest in Peace, Detective Garda Colm Horkan.

Tom Murphy is a proud, born and bred Castlebar man with an inspiring story of ambition, resilience and taking a chance when life doesn’t go to plan.
Growing up on the Green in Castlebar, Tom had a simple ambition: to get a car, get out on the road and become a salesman. He achieved that goal and went on to build his career in sales, becoming incredibly loyal to one company and dedicating years of his working life to it.
Then came the news he never expected. He was being let go.
With no job and little choice but to sign on the dole, Tom found himself at a crossroads. Rather than allowing the setback to define him, he decided to back himself and go out on his own.
That decision led to the creation of Pamex, which has grown into a hugely successful Irish business promoting, selling and distributing health, beauty and personal care products throughout Ireland.
In this episode, Tom talks about growing up in Castlebar, his early days on the road, the lessons he learned in sales, the shock of losing his job and the determination it took to build a business from the ground up.
It’s a story about loyalty, setbacks, hard work and having the courage to start again. And a reminder that sometimes the worst day in your career can become the beginning of something much bigger.

This week’s episode is a real roller coaster as I sit down with Father Mark Quinn, the parish priest of Tuam, County Galway.
Mark and I grew up in the same village, but until this conversation, I had no idea about many of the struggles and challenges he faced throughout his life. I still remember reading in the local newspaper that he had become a parish priest, it genuinely surprised me, and it made me curious about the journey that brought him there.
This is probably the longest episode of the season, and honestly, I could have sat and talked with Mark all day. His honesty, openness, and willingness to share his story made for a fascinating conversation, and I’m incredibly grateful to him for that.
I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it.

This week on the podcast, I’m delighted to be joined by content creator, beauty expert, and lipedema spokesperson, Jo Prendergast.
Lipedema / Lipoedema is a chronic medical condition characterised by a symmetrical and abnormal build-up of fat, most commonly in the legs and arms, while typically sparing the hands and feet. Often triggered by hormonal changes, the condition can cause significant pain, easy bruising, and is resistant to traditional diet and exercise.
In this honest and inspiring conversation, Jo shares her experience of living with lipedema from a very young age, the challenges she faced seeking answers and treatment, and her courageous journey to Germany to undergo life-changing surgery.
Jo’s story is one of resilience, self-advocacy, and hope. Through sharing her experience, she is helping to raise awareness of a condition that remains widely misunderstood and under diagnosed, while empowering others to seek the support and treatment they deserve.
A powerful reminder that knowledge, courage, and self-belief can transform even the most difficult journey.
