Roasted with Mark Moriarty

Rob Kearney is a former Ireland and British & Irish Lions fullback who spent nearly two decades at the top of international rugby. A two-time Grand Slam winner and key figure in one of Ireland’s most successful eras, he built a reputation as one of the game’s most dependable and intelligent players. In this chat, Rob talks about growing up on a farm in Louth, the pressure of playing for Leinster and Ireland, and the moments that defined his career, including the famous 2013 clash with the All Blacks. We also chat about life after rugby, family, and what he enjoys eating now that strict match-day diets are a thing of the past.

Tom Kerridge is one of the UK’s most influential and successful chefs of the last 20 years. Two Michelin stars, five restaurants, numerous awards, and the first pub ever to receive two Michelin stars. In my view, his CV is almost unmatched and, dare I say, even groundbreaking. This success wasn’t all plain sailing, as Tom describes. His achievements have resulted from incredible hard work, relentless focus, huge sacrifices, and struggles. Tom talks about all this and more in a fascinating chat.
