Katriona O’Sullivan
December 15, 2024

It was such a privilege to sit down with Katriona O’Sullivan, bestselling author and all round sound legend. I read Katriona’s book ‘Poor’ earlier this year and can safely say it is the most powerful book I have ever read. Not that she needs my review…72

Dermot Bannon
December 08, 2024

Dermot Bannon showed up to the studio exactly as youd expect - giddy and ready for divilment. Yes, he did steam in and congratulated the show on its third season (ten, Dermot, keep up), but predictably enough that didnt set him back at all, and he enter

Brother Richard Hendrick
December 01, 2024

My guest this week is Brother Richard Hendrick, a Capuchin Franciscan priest-friar from Dublin. You may have seen him on The Tommy Tiernan Show in recent months. If I had known he was open to interviews I would have asked him years ago, as we ha

Talking Bollox (Calvin and Terence)
November 24, 2024

The Talking Bollox lads. What can I say? Two absolute gems. Calvin and Terence talked to me about growing up in the flats in Dublin's inner city and how they entertained themselves as kids. They were both extremely vulnerable (content warning) and opened

Roddy Doyle
November 17, 2024

Chatting to Roddy Doyle felt like sitting down with an uncle you have known your whole life, but never properly gotten to know. He talked to me about his Christian Brother school days, how easy it is to dodge the public eye and gave his (very lovely) answ

Charleen Murphy & Ellie Kelly
November 10, 2024

I say it on the podcast and I'll say it here. These girls keep me young. I adore following Charleen and Ellie's journeys on instagram and so simply had to have them on the podcast. The girls host Hold My Drink podcast and are two of Ireland's mo

Laura Whitmore
November 03, 2024

My guest this week is the one and only, Laura Whitmore. I got to sit down with Laura in The Olympia Theatre during her run of '2.22 A Ghost Story' during the Summer. She is as bubbly and beautiful in person as you might expect. I had never met Laura but i

Donncha O'Callaghan
October 28, 2024

Ahh, Donners. What a JOY to have Donncha O'Callaghan back on The Laughs of your Life! It has been 5 years (and 1 week) since his first appearance on the podcast. Little did we know in 2019 that we were about to work together - full time - for 3 years. '2f

Dawn O'Porter
October 20, 2024

To me, Dawn O'Porter is the perfect personification of the London girl I always wanted to be. Lol - cringe - but true! She is smart, cool, hilarious, a diehard lover of the tube and a total woman's woman. It was such a joy to chat to her this week. She to

Joe Canning
October 13, 2024

Hurling legend and proud Galway man Joe Canning is my guest this week. Im so grateful to Joe for his honesty and vulnerability. Lots of light and shade in this one! He talked to me about manifesting his way to sporting greatness, dealing with the loss of
