In this week’s episode, Mine and Paul welcome comedian Ed Byrne - the beloved Irish comic known for his sharp wit, self-deprecating humor, and unflinching honesty - for a candid conversation about living with ADHD.
Ed opens up about his late diagnosis, the chaos and comedy of everyday forgetfulness, and how ADHD shapes his creativity, relationships, and resilience. From childhood daydreams and lost passports to the joy of hiking, hyperfocus, and fatherhood, Ed reflects on the messy brilliance of a neurodivergent mind.
The conversation also turns personal as Ed discusses grief, creativity, and his acclaimed show “Tragedy Plus Time,” exploring how humour helps him process the loss of his brother and find meaning in pain.
Oh, and as for Prince’s guitar - did Ed ever sell it? You’ll have to listen to find out
