How Is He Podcast | Ep. 119
Podge & Guich's guest is someone most people in Ireland have checked in with at least once, especially when there's snow on the way, a named storm approaching, or the barbecue plans are hanging in the balance.- From a passion project in County Carlow, to becoming one of Ireland's most trusted independent weather voices, Alan O'Reilly has built Carlow Weather into a daily stop for hundreds of thousands of people looking for clear, honest forecasts without the jargon.
His expertise has seen him become a familiar face across Irish media, appearing regularly on RTÉ television and radio, Virgin Media Television, Today FM, Newstalk, and local radio stations across the country. He's featured in the Irish Independent, the Irish Times, and regional newspapers, and even found himself the subject of a Gift Grub sketch. A sure sign you've become part of Irish popular culture.
Today, the lads talk about where his fascination with weather began, how Carlow Weather grew into the phenomenon it is today, what it's really like being one of Ireland's best-known weather forecasters, the science behind the forecasts, the big weather events that have defined his career, and what it's like when the whole country is waiting on your next update.
