This week’s episode is a special one for me.I’m joined by a man who, without even realising it, helped shape my path in broadcasting. We’ve worked together many times, but this is the first time we’ve sat down properly to talk about where it all began, from his early days behind the mic to helping build Midwest Radio into one of the country’s biggest stations.If you’re in the west of Ireland, you’ll instantly recognise the voice.

In this episode, I sit down with actor, writer, and comedian John Colleary for a wide ranging and deeply personal conversation about his journey into the world of performance. From his early days growing up in County Sligo to his experiences living abroad, John reflects on the moments and influences that shaped both his life and career.We dive into how he first found his footing in the industry, the twists and turns that led him to where he is today, and some of the standout projects he’s worked on including the iconic series The Savage Eye. Along the way, we share plenty of laughs, memories from the set, and honest insights into the realities of working in comedy and television.It’s a thoughtful, funny, and nostalgic conversation you won’t want to miss.Please sign up to my Patreon for weekly bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/BigNewsComingSoon Hosted on Acast.

This week on the podcast, I’m joined by Jodie McGuinness. Jodie is the sister of Natalie McGuinness, who was tragically murdered in County Sligo.

A recent online exchange between Donal Byrne (CEO of BRB Homes) and Joe Doyle (Construction Sector Business Mentor) sparked a lively debate about self-employment in Ireland. Donal argued that it’s becoming increasingly difficult to run a business and hire staff, while Joe pushed back, saying there has never been more opportunity to be self-employed in Ireland.Rather than let the discussion stay online, I invited both Donal and Joe onto the podcast at the same time to talk it through properly. In this episode, they share their opposing perspectives, challenge each other’s views, and debate what it’s really like to be self-employed in Ireland today.Please sign up to my Patreon for weekly bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/BigNewsComingSoon Hosted on Acast.

Megan Durkan, from Swinford in County Mayo, is a successful business owner, makeup artist, and tutor. This podcast is a prime example of the saying: "never judge a book by its cover". On the outside, Megan is always positive, always in good form, and always striving to make her clients feel better about themselves. But behind closed doors, Megan has faced a roller coaster of a childhood and life. She speaks very openly and honestly about a difficult upbringing in Chicago, the heartbreaking loss of her best friend and mother, experiences that shaped the woman she is today.Please sign up to my Patreon for weekly bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/BigNewsComingSoon Hosted on Acast.
