This week we chat to Owen Colgan, we dive deep in this one and try to figure out how a tiny baby in Mayo grew up to be the hardest man yet the softest lover in Ireland...

Gareth & Greg are back by popular demand as it seems everyone loves when I get picked on by my big brothers, but it's all in love... well that's what I tell myself anyway. No sympathy for the sickest man in Ireland. We answer everything you want to know...

Mr. BRB, Donal Byrne is in studio with me this week and this went from 0-100 real quick. Donal is a very successful business man with brilliant stories of how he made it. From making a citizens arrest at gun point, being contracted for the London Olympics, proving the government, media, justice system and the public wrong and a nice cup of tea with the bishop, this is definitely not one to miss...

This week we are joined by Belinda Kehoe, owner of The Wexford Skin Clinic. Belinda tells us about growing up and her experiences with boarding school, motorbike rallys, an abusive relationship, her business' past and present and some tragedies along the way. She is such a free spirit and it was a really interesting conversation, so sit back and enjoy...

This week I am joined by Don Curtain, a podcast regular at this stage & Paul Cocoman. We talk about trucks, horses, riding....horses in Miami and most importantly, the Light Up The Night Truck Run going from Edenderry to Kanturk in aid of SoSad Ireland. Remember, "it's ok not to be ok". If you need to contact anyone please contact

Ian Horan joins us this week and you all should strap in. Ian is from Gorey, Wexford and has travelled through 75 countries on a motorbike. He tells us stories from his times in these countries as he travelled alone, slept wild, broke the bike, broke himself and met as many locals as he could. This was one of the longest episodes we have done and honestly we could have done another 3 hours, it's that interesting. Follow Ian  @IanHoran  on youtube and @ianhoranphotography on instagram.

Johnny "The Rapid Responder" Fitzgerald has been the most asked for guest since TWFTT Podcast started, so we finally reangled him in studio. A lovely conversation about the times he grew up in, memories from his childhood, and his career from junior baker to.... The Rapid Responder...

This week we are joined by Aaron Dunne. Aarons story was honestly so incredible to listen to. From dealing with alcoholism from a very early age to then developing a drug addiction and even after a suicide attempt he continued to battle to create the life he wanted. He is now 20 years sober and and happily married with children and has some great advice for younger people who might feel in similar situations.

This week we are joined by Frank Doheny. Frank had great stories to tell us, some powerful, emotional, funny and even about a legal battle, which he won. This episode covers pretty much every emotion you can capture in a recording so enjoy Franks story...

Shane called up to help me and as our conversations normally spiral into Shane’s interesting in-lighting life changing views ( including I think he diagnosed my kidney issue live on air ) and me just taking shite , we felt it would be a waist not to record it . 

So enjoy because I certainly did… even if I was dieing.
