It’s thirty years this year since Charlie McGettigan conquered Europe with Paul Harrington as Rock and Roll Kids claimed Ireland’s sixth Eurovision win. Now living full time in Leitrim, Charlie joined Bobby to chat and to play us out following a hugely enjoyable ‘Open for Business’ roadshow in Carrick-on-Shannon.

Joining Bobby in the Executive Chair this week is Tom Cronin of Rye River Brewing.

While out and about in the Carrick-on-Shannon area for this week’s ‘Open for Business’ roadshow, Bobby got to visit the Shed Distillery which is the home of the now famous Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin.

Broadcasting out of the The Landmark Hotel in Carrick-On-Shannon as a part of the 'Open For Business' Roadshow series, one of the primary goals of these visits is to get a feel for how the businesses in the town are faring.

To discuss Bobby is joined by:

• Ciaran Kelly, co-owner of The Landmark Hotel

• Derry Lynch, Head of Solution Consulting at Cora Systems

• Paul O’Brien of OBN Financial Services & Carrick Camino

• Eileen and Seamus Gibbons of Electric Bike Trails

• Georgia Visnyei, Owner of Artessa Coffee

• Martin Costello, Owner of ChurchTv

• Pamela Ruddy, Moon River, Carrick Day Boats and Riverrun Cruiser 

• Colm Keane, Manager at the Hive

As part of each of these ‘Open for Business’ roadshows, Bobby looks to do a bit of a health check to give the town the once over and see what works and maybe what could be improved. Joining Bobby to do that is Retail Consultant, Eddie Shanahan and Planning Expert, Conor Skehan.
