This is the fascinating story of Jude McAtamney. From a talented footballing family in Swatragh, Co Derry, Jude played for inter-county U20 for three years- destined for senior football. Then covid hit and the beginning of a remarkable journey. Jude decided he wanted to become a kicker in the NFL. That journey brought him to Serbia, North Carolina, Australia, Rutgers before eventually signing for the New York Giants. When the Washington Commanders came to town, Jude got his chance and took it, nailing all of his kicks. It's a journey of ups and downs, doubts, sliding doors, all before finally making it in the NFL. There's more to come too. On Super Bowl week, this is the brilliant Jude McAtamney

Oliver McVeigh is known across the land. More than 40 years in sports photography and likely to turn up at any GAA event.

New year brings new hope and in the past few weeks, a significant new development. A lifelong promise to his mother and a determination to bring his brother home. This is the story of Oliver McVeigh. A brilliant podcast.
