Seamus Moore, nicknamed THE JCB MAN, is an Irish Country singer best known for his lively, humorous songs and down to earth style. I had the pleasure of recording a number of his music videos for songs such as 'The Mighty Man From Mayo" and "She only wants to dance".

He lives in the UK but tours Ireland for the summer and I was lucky to grab him for a chat when he was performing in Mayo.

This week I'm honored to sit down with a person who I have admired from a very early age and that man is Fr John Kenny. Growing up, we would have known John as "Fr Trendy" because he was driving sporty cars, he had a huge interest in adventure sports and he was also the dancing priest. John welcomed me into his home for a very open and honest conversation. We spoke about how the church has changed during his time, where he sees it going in the future and we had to talk about his love for cars.
