  • Episode 59 - Mei Szetu has a pint with Seaniebee
    Mei Szetu is currently building a new communal workspace for artists in the tiny town of Nyksund in the far north of Norway. Her eclectic career has included stints pulling pints, producing movies, art curation, sales management, SEO, design, advertising and cultivating seaweed. From her early childhood growing up on the beaches of Borneo her life journey is marked by a constant curiosity, a refusal to stand still and a brave willingness to constantly try new things. We also learn why all is not necessarily as it seems in Norway right now.

  • Episode 58 - Russo has a pint with Seaniebee
    Today we sit down with one of the world’s greatest living accordionists - Rusmir Piknjač - who shares both his life story and some of his amazing work. Born in Sarajevo, he recounts the trauma of Yugoslavia’s disintegration and the terrible war that ensued. A refugee, he spent time in both Austria and Australia where, relying on his musical talent, he worked from the ground up to build a livelihood for his young family: a path that led from busking on the streets of Sydney to eventually setting up the renowned Aria music school there.
    In 2004, a sudden brain aneurism (that briefly left him clinically dead) caused him to reconsider his life and look at things from a different perspective. Soon thereafter he relocated back to his homeland, where he set up a sister school to Aria. He believes in the power of music to unite people, drive multiculturalism and build hope for the future of all humanity.

  • Episode 57 - Jean Curran has a pint with Seaniebee
    Today we are joined by one of Europe’s foremost photography-based artists. Born into an Irish farming family, Jean began her career as a photojournalist, with her work quickly gaining traction in both the national and international press. In her twenties, she sojourned to Africa, producing stunning assignments in both Ghana and Kenya. Two years ago, she bravely embedded herself with the coalition armies in Afghanistan in search of a long-lost, hand-painted, photography technique unique to the country. Her next project brought her to the Comoros Islands and she shares the fascinating culture that has developed there. Working in so many different Muslim countries, she unveils a very different side to Islam than the one most prevalent in our current news headlines. Most recently, she has based herself in London working as one of the only practicing masters in the declining art of dye transfer. Jean is an inspiration to anyone who has a dream or an ambitious idea and explains how single-minded determination, faith, trust and bravery can always make amazing things happen.

  • Episode 56 - Jamie McIvor has a pint with Seaniebee
    “We are on the brink of an ecological mega-crisis, threatening the future of life on earth, and our actions over the next few years may well determine the destiny of our descendants” – Daniel Pinchbeck, futurist & philosopher.
    The Russell Brand-esque Jamie McIvor joins the pod to talk environment, sustainability, climate change and the future of our planet. With a wisdom, positivity and spirituality beyond his years, he provides a simple and clear understanding of why fossil fuels and carbon capture storage are not viable solutions as the world sleepwalks to a precarious pollution tipping point. He is currently pioneering a mould-breaking, anaerobic, biotechnology process that mirrors mother nature, and one which if implemented, would not only reduce carbon from the atmosphere, but potentially remove it altogether. Jamie explains how a near-death snowboarding accident caused him to rethink his career path and we also learn what it is like to live on a barge in central London.

  • Episode 55 - Amela O'Reilly has a pint with Seaniebee
    One of Europe’s foremost nutritional therapists joins the pod to talk what we eat and how the triple forces of Big Pharma, Big Agriculture and the marketing of processed food brands have, over fifty years, driven the sugar and grain addictions behind the global rise of inflammatory diseases. As a Jamie Oliver ambassador, Amela shares how school meals should be leading the fight against childhood obesity; why eating fat doesn’t actually make you fat; and how simple dietary changes can get our bodies back in shape quickly and healthily. We also learn how Seaniebee dropped 10kg in 10 months just by changing what he ate!

  • Episode 53 - Steve Mascord has a pint with Seaniebee
    To coincide with the launch of his new book – Touchstones – one of Australia’s legendary sports journalists visits Dublin to chat through his amazing life journey centred around a love of both Rugby League and Heavy Metal music.
    We discuss the future of contact sports and whether commercialism, excessive marketing and TV overkill are collectively contriving to drive fan apathy and destroy the integrity of the major global sporting codes.
    We also learn how things as diverse as his obsessive compulsive tendencies, Islamic terrorism, and the emotional story behind the truth of his childhood adoption all combined to inspire the new book's ambition.

  • Episode 52 - Jason DeTurris has a pint with Seaniebee
    One of America’s foremost strategists joins the pod today to share his adventurous, innovative and joyous approach to life. Constantly driven by curiosity and lived experiences, Jason penned his first bucket-list as a child growing up on Long Island. Since then, he has measured his progress by putting a premium on travel, empathy, emotional intelligence, radical honesty and diving into opportunities big and small with maximum enthusiasm. He shares the huge guiding influence his mother had on his development and how he came to terms with her sudden death when he was in his late teens. We also hear his views on Trump and how he helped launch the Ernest Hemingway inspired rum brand – Papas Pillar.

  • Episode 51 - José Mollá has a pint with Seaniebee
    Today we welcome our first Argentinian guest to the pod. Ad legend José Mollá shares stories from his life growing up in Buenos Aires; a love of the sea that saw him coach the Spanish sailing team before following both his father and his grandfather into the advertising business, where he rose to become the global creative director on Nike and eventually founding The Community – one of the most progressive ad agencies in the world right now. We also hear how he survived a shark attack in the Bahamas and his belief that the unstoppable march of multiculturalism will eventually prevail over the evil and terror that currently blights our planet.

  • Episode 50 - George Boyle has a pint with Seaniebee
    To celebrate the somewhat surprising milestone of the fiftieth episode, Seaniebee is joined on the pod today by his architect sister, George, who shares the story behind the launch of The Fumbally Exchange (a not-for-profit movement of creative and innovative professionals who share co-working spaces). Like many others in the country, George and her husband lost their jobs during the Irish economic meltdown. What follows is an inspiring tale about a bunch of folks pulling themselves up by the bootstraps, overcoming red tape, government apathy and general crap and adversity to create a shining beacon of what can be achieved when we collectively put our minds to it.
