An extra-length Podcast, for a very good reason.

It's 20 years since Cormac McAnallen died. At 24, the Tyrone captain already won a senior All-Ireland in 2003 and was next in line to life Sam Maguire as leader. It didn't happen. In the early hours of March 2nd, Donal McAnallen heard a noise in Cormac's room and found his brother. Donal explains what unfolded, Cormac's death and the trauma that seemed to hit everyone in a Gaelic Football nation.

The Cormac Trust was setup in Cormac’s memory and it saved countless lives. It's a beautiful legacy and joining Donal, Thomas & Oisin is former Derry captain Kevin McCloy. In August 2014, Kevin collapsed in a club championship match. His life has never been the same, but it's a life "Owed" to Cormac. In a remarkable podcast, Kevin explains his own journey through cardiac arrest. It's an extraordinarily personal account of life, death and survival beyond the brink.

Perhaps surprising, or maybe not, there are so many brilliant, funny moments in a special extra-length podcast, that turns several corners- some unexpected.

The GAA Social are indebted to Donal and Kevin for their honesty. This was a difficult podcast to take part in, but both men were simply incredible. Genuine, humble, authentic and brilliant ambassadors for the short, but beautiful life of Cormac McAnallen.
