The GAA Social Folgen

Like you've never heard Conor Laverty before- nothing is off-limits. Meeting Jim McGuinness for the Down senior job, a sick child during championship, behind the scenes of Irelands best club and the drive that motivates one of the most rural places in the country. Conor also discusses why he doesn't drink alcohol, his coaching ambitions, his playing future and how 4 men convinced Mickey Moran to take the managers job- twice! It's a lens into rural Ireland and sport at it's very best. How does a team go from junior football to the premier side in Gaelic games? This weeks GAA Social peels the skin of one of Gaelic footballs most unique sportsmen.

The Marquee forward footballer, star hurling defender, 2021 GAA Allstar nominee Shane McGuigan talks being the best, playing both hurling and football and aspirations for Derry. The podcast digs deep into the mindset of one of Irelands great Gaelic footballers- and what makes him tick! With nothing off limits, we talk hopes of winning Sam Maguire, the dilemma of walking away from the sport you love, crying in the toilets in Ballybofey and how he learned to use his right foot during lockdown "I want to be marked by the best players"

Padraig Hampsey sits down with Oisin McConville and Thomas Niblock and discusses winning the Sam Maguire, crowning off the most remarkable sporting story in 2022. A camp in disarray after losing to Kerry, ravaged by covid, but somehow collected the ultimate prize in Irish sport. Hampsey discusses the captaincy, the moment he'll take to the grave, the season and challenges ahead in 2022- and the dream of winning back-to-back All-Ireland titles. Open and honest, Hampsey brings us inside the Tyrone wire, his family and what it's like to play inter-county football. Padraig also discusses the challenges of running his business through the covid-19 pandemic and explores the murky world of verbals and it's place in sport.
