We have a busy show again this week. We’re chatting to Bandon’s Conor Hourihane to chat about his recent move to Swansea City.

Hourihane has already made a big impact at the Liberty Stadium and was last weekend named in the Championship team of the week.

We also chat to Jason Collins who has recently been appointed chairperson of St Mary’s GAA Club. 

At only 29 years old, Jason must be amongst the youngest club chairs in the country so we ask him about his plans for his time in the role.

On today’s show, we’re catching up with Skibbereen rowing sensations Jake & Fintan McCarthy

World champion Fintan and twin brother Jake, a world rowing finalist in his own right, both had their sights set on securing a seat in the Irish lightweight double at last year’s Tokyo Olympics before the pandemic put those ambitions on hold.

Both brothers now have the rescheduled games firmly in their sights and they caught up with Kieran to chat about their plans for the year, injuries and The Sopranos.

Later in the week we’ll be releasing another podcast which will be a special tribute episode to the late great Eamonn Ryan who sadly passed away last week.

We’ll be joined by Cork legends Rena Buckely and Nollaig Cleary to remember the great man so keep an eye out for that one on Wednesday.

Coming up on today’s show, we have a special treat for you as we’re joined by sisters Melissa and Louise Duggan. 

Melissa is a football All Star who played a starring role for the West Cork ladies last year as they won their first ever Cork senior football title.

And not to be out done, Louise was a key figure for Enniskeane who landed the county intermediate camogie title last year, securing senior status for the season ahead.

We also chat to Urhan’s Laura Sheehan. Laura, an Irish international rugby player, has recently joined the Exeter Chiefs so we asked her about the move and her ambitions for the year ahead.

On this week’s podcast we’re joined by Cork ladies football captain Doireann O’Sullivan following their All Ireland semi-final win over Galway on Sunday. 

Though the game itself was somewhat routine, the build up and aftermath were anything but, with venue changes, frozen pitches, broadcast mix-ups and embarrassing Morning Ireland appearances all thrown in for good measure and Ger McCarthy will join us to break down what went on on one of the most bizarre All Ireland Semi Final days in living memory.

We’re also chatting to Cork and Nemo Rangers legend Paul Kerrigan who announced his inter-county retirement last week. 

Kerrigan was a member of the Cork team that claimed the 2010 All Ireland title and he spoke to Kieran about his stellar club and inter-county career that also included 4 Munster titles and 4 national league titles.
