We speak to Ireland’s youngest TD, James O’Connor. James was elected in the 2020 General Election, where he ran in East Cork for Fianna Fáil.

James chose to talk about ‘Becoming’ by Michelle Obama. The book outlines the life of the 44th First Lady of the United States, from her humble beginnings to her husband’s stratospheric rise to the White House.

As with all guests, we relate the themes of the book back to them. We speak to James about the perils of politics, how much it can affect your family, and also his thoughts and opinions on Irish politics today.
