   Number 1: Darragh Ó Sé. Kerry. One of the greatest players of any generation.

   Six All-Ireland titles, one more than his brothers Tomás & Marc, although Fergal was the trailblazer! He’s enough medals, that you need both hands to count them. It makes you part of Gaelic footballs most exclusive club. Bursting onto the scene in the mid nineties, Kerry seemed a million miles from winning the big prize. Darragh led that change. He defined midfield and for many, is one of the greatest players of all-time. Four All-stars, nine Munster titles and part of what many believe, to be the most famous Gaelic football family in Ireland. His uncle Páidí, an iconic player and manager “I miss him everyday” Although Darragh rarely does any broadcast interviews, he has a column in the Irish Times and received plenty of push back when he criticised Kerry last year after the Meath game. He also had interesting things to say after the league final with Donegal. He looks at things differently. He believes the Kerry players don’t really care about what he says. Darragh doesn’t regret anything written in good faith at the time. What does come across, is a 51 year-old who still bleeds green and gold. The county and the football is part of his identity. An auctioneer in Tralee now, but the wonderful world of An Ghaeltacht is always home, and it’s always there. A place apart. Growing older, reflecting back, plenty of fun and laughs and what the great Jack O'Shea perhaps really thinks of Brian Fention...a brilliant story! A great man. Darragh Ó Sé on the GAA Social with Thomas and Oisin

   Number 2: Gregory McCartan- Brutal honesty, pure craic, Red & black of Down

   We didn't know what to expect when Gregory McCartan sat down in front of us. Iconic midfielder for Down, All-star and double All-Ireland winner. It turned into one of our favourite podcasts of the year. Once we felt it was going one way, another right hand turn. Then again, and again. The accent, the brutal honesty, the transfer, not liking Pete McGrath, but later understanding it. Ultra dedication towards winning Sam Maguire, but sitting in the car with a bottle of vodka "60 Halfins between us" Growing up in rural Co Down "Alone but not lonely" helping his younger brother Ronan through cancer, and using that to drive him into the superb footballer he became. His daughter Sorcha is now a double All-Ireland winner with the Cork camogie team and feels right at home at St Finbarr's- the club of the great Jimmy Barry Murphy. “If I had money, I would retire to West Cork” There’s more, like marking Brian McGilligan in the iconic 1994 game against Derry, to living in London and taking Fulham Irish. The Loughinisland killings in 1994 killed six people, on the night Ray Houghtons goal helped Ireland beat Italy at the World cup. Down played an Ulster semi-final the following day “I’ve never been involved in a day like that, anytime in my entire life” Gregory is back in Castlewellan, but Ballymartin will always "raise the hairs in his arms." An absolutely smashing podcast. We LOVE the accent!!!

   Number 3: Ciara Mageean. Living with cancer and what the future holds

   At the All-Ireland hurling final, Ciara Mageean was the guest of the BBC and the GAA. The European champion, addressed the crowd at half-time to a huge applause. Ciara is one of us. Portaferry and camogie to her core. It just turns out, Ciara was an outstanding athlete destined for the top of athletics. As Limerick celebrated a famous All-Ireland win, the voice of Dolores O'Riordan and the cranberries echoed throughout Croke Park. Ciara had a moment. How many of these special days are left? It's a question without an answer. Ciara has stage four bowel cancer. Surgery and Radiotherapy isn't an option, for now its Chemo. It's a devastating blow, but there will always be a flicker of hope. Positivity glows from this special woman. The people of Ireland and beyond love this girl- many have never even met her. Why is that? This is her cancer story, the good and the bad. Ciara is getting married in October to Thomas (Tommy) or is it Tommy (Thomas)? It's honest and we've an update on her current health condition. Ciara Mageean- one of the most special people we've ever had on the GAA Social. A gem
