  • #143 How to be a poet le Ryan Hennessy

    Ón stáitse le Picture This go leabhar filíochta… when is a song a song or a poem a poem? How long is a piece of string!

    This week, we’re joined by Ryan Hennessy, frontman of Picture This, to talk about poetry, vulnerability and the power of putting your feelings into words. From writing his first poem at just seven years old to sharing his work in his latest book ‘In Another Lifetime’ as Gaeilge agus Béarla, we chat about being a romantic from Athy, singing for the first time and expressing oneself.

    Agus an BANGER gurb é Tóg mo Lámh - dár ndóigh. 

    Éist le nóiméad fíorspeisialta…when Síomha reads Ryan’s own poem back to him as Gaeilge…

  • #142 How to be a beginner

    Ar chuir tú tús riamh le rud éigin nua?

    From Louise learning to drift, to the things Síomha was naturally good at from the start, is cuma cén rud atá ann ach bíonn misneach ag teastáil chun triail a bhaint as rud éigin nua. 

    Is it a fresh start or a midlife crisis? An féidir leat a bheith ró-aosta chun rud éigin nua a fhoghlaim? And what’s that one thing you’ve always wanted to try? (Haircuts included)

    New beginnings, new challenges or maybe a midlife crisis… who’s judging?

    Inis dúinn, what are YOU going to try?

  • #141 How to have a hot take

    Spreagtha ag na tráchtanna atá faighte acu le déanaí, tá na cailíní ag ligint na madaí le sruth and revealing their hottest takes faoin nGaeilge. 

    Ó ainmneacha Gaeilge (WhAt’S tHaT iN eNgLiSh?!), an botún is mó a dhéantar agus Gaeilgeoir faoi agallamh, gatekeeping na Gaeilge agus fiú na focail Ghaeilge don ghnéas nár chóir duit a úsáid (spoiler; iad uilig)… tá na cailíní ag cleamhsán. It’s tough being perfect, you know?

    Strong opinions, spicy takes, language debates. Inis dúinn do chuid gearáin fhéin thíos!

  • #140 How to have a bigger life le Louise O’Neill

    Cad a tharlaíonn nuair a shocraíonn tú saol níos mó agus níos fearr a chruthú duit féin? 

    Bhí an craic againn le Louise O’Neill, údar an leabhair nua A Bigger Life. Labhair sí linn faoi na rioscaí a ghlacadh, ag déanamh níos mó de na rudaí a chuireann áthas ort agus cén fáth nach bímid cróga go leor uaireanta chun an saol atá uainn a chruthú.

    From taking a chance to the most important question of all - what do we really want?

  • #139 How to be a traitor le Carla Geary

    Deirtear go bhfillean an feall ar an bhfeallaire - ach cad a dheirtear faoin bhfeallaire ar an bpodchraoladh?? Bhí an craic againn le “traitor na bliana” Carla Geary.

    Labhair sí faoin mbrú a bhain le bheith ina Traitor, an cháil nua atá bainte amach aici agus an rún mór a choinneáil óna teaghlach agus a cairde. 

    A disco diva Gaeilgeoir Ballymunner - what’s not to love?!

  • #138 How to wear shoes

    Yes we are…tá muid ag caint faoi bhróga agus poo! One of Síomha’s goals in life is to find her bróg go deo - but NOT Solomon’s. 

    Dá mbeadh ort bróg amháin a roghnú a léiríonn do phearsantacht, cén bhróg a bheadh inti? Find out what shoes the girls have picked for each other, praiticiúil nó maslach fiú? 👟

    From dream shoes and disastrous footwear to compost toilets, you're gonna need your blister packs for this one.

  • #137 How to shoot your shot

    An tseachtain seo tá muid ag caint faoi “shoot your shot”. Take a chance and put yourself out there, even when you might hear “no”. 

    Cén sórt duine thú? An cineál a dhéanann rudaí gan smaoineamh? From making the first moves, sliding into DMs or asking for an opportunity - glac seans agus bain triail as! 

    If you could shoot your shot tomorrow with absolutely no fear of rejection, cad a dhéanfá?

  • #136 How to find your flow state

    This week on How to Gael, tá muid ag fiosrú saol suimiúil an “flow state”.  That feeling when you’re completely absorbed in something and everything just clicks. Where do you find your flow state; sa charr, sa chith, in áit faoi leith, le duine faoi leith, nó nuair a déanamh tú rud a thaitníonn leat?

  • #134 How to be a clever clogs

    How do you measure cliste? Is a great conversationalist clever? Is being an expert in a field admirable?

    An mbaineann clisteacht le cé mhéad eolais atá agat, nó leis na ceisteanna a chuireann tú? An bhfuil an duine is ciúine sa seomra níos cliste ná an duine a mbíonn rud le rá aige i gcónaí? Is there such a thing as physical intelligence, ach cén cineál clever clogs a thugann an ick duit?
