Folge vom 17.02.2026John McAreavey. Moving forward after Michaela. Living life as best you can.We don't say this lightly, but this podcast sits with the very best on the GAA Social. "Moving forward" that's what John McAreavey calls it, not "moving on." There's a difference. In his mid-twenties the world of John McAreavey collapsed after his wife Michaela, daughter of All-Ireland winning manager Mickey Harte, was murdered on honeymoon. The search for justice continues. Hope flickers dimly at times, but it remains alive. This podcast is about moving forward with life after something unspeakable. How do you do that? Can you meet someone? Will people judge if you do? How do I tell my friend Mickey Harte that i've met someone else? John McAreavey is married to Tara now. They have two beautiful children. Happiness has smiled at them both. Their journey started at a point, most of us just couldn't possibly contemplate. “I’m lucky.” This is John's story. Life 15 years after the death of Michaela, struggling with guilt but knowing the importance of making the most of time. It’s an extraordinary story of resilience, faith, struggles and love.

Folge vom 10.02.2026Jamsie O'Connor. Hurling, punditry, Maurice FitzgeraldThis felt like the quickest ever hour. The great Jamsie O’Connor. Player of the Year, four Allstar's, double All-Ireland winner and a teacher. Clare to the bone.We talk phone calls to Kerry great Maurice Fitzgerald, The influence of Ger Loughnane and a surprising one from Tipperary. We talk Cork, are they just not liked? And his run-in with Ronan Curran, now with Ben O’Connor in charge. Teaching Tony Kelly and now working alongside him. Clare “won’t be far away” this year and we also talk punditry, really interesting. The Sky Sports years, how RTE has changed and now enjoying life with the BBC (we think)Colum Flynn passed away two weeks ago, a physio but so much more. Lovely tribute to a great man.Speaking of great men, Hurling, life, Jamsie.
