    Andy Moran is fond of an oul plug or two for his business while he’s on.

    I'm not a fan of this Premier League chat seeping into the weekly Monday GAA pod.

    Problem with a sports pod is it's always going to cover sports you don't like. At one point my podcast playlist was so backed up I was hoping for a gaa podcast just so I could delete it.

    How did Ken’s diet / nutrition audio bed not make it into the top 8?! One of my favourite ones!

    Agreed, I think this is the best. Keep meaning to have a Ritter sport bar as a result.

    I like the elephant roar at the end myself.

    I love the McGregor bed with him trying to sound solemn and serious mixed with the horrible obnoxious things he says during press conferences.

    Ken was right during the Summer when he said Charlton was more astute than he got credit for.

    Yeah the MacGregor one is a great one.

    This might come in handy over the next few days.

    My nephew is already referring the fence and the bòllox, and he never even heard the tripod.

    I enjoyed the war and peace talk, Ken knew far more about it that Murph who had only recently read it!

    A belated Christmas present for Ken: Chelsea losing badly to a weakened version of the worst Arsenal team of the PL era. The next football show should be good.

    Strange pod today. I had not read the book so couldn’t connect with this at all. It’s a tough time
    As it is for everyone and would have preferred a light hearted pod. Bit of a mis step I think.

    Yep gave it a miss myself. Not particularly interested in seeking out more tragedy in podcast form.

    Festive period content has been lacklustre.

    I take your point about it not being light hearted however I have to say I did find it quite interesting and i could relate to the subject matter having lost family members well before their time too.

    Ridleys explanation of his journey through grief was fascinating and I could empathise with a lot of it.

    While many might not feel its the appropriate time of year for the subject matter Christmas can be the most excruciating time of year when you are missing a loved one and that shouldn't be shied away from. Personally I couldn't fully enjoy Christmas for years until I became a parent.

    I did enjoy today’s episode and I wasn’t looking forward to when I saw the episode’s description in advance of listening to it. I’m surprised they didn’t make the connection between Ken involuntarily spilling the six pints in the Phoenix Park and today’s interviewee watching the man at the cricket spilling multiple pints after being hit by a frisbee.

    I think they did as the interview was recorded before so reminded them of the ken incident which they then mentioned at the start

    Im not grieving anyone but I thought it was a great interview ans I would really like to read the book. Christmas time is as good as any for the subject matter. Pity it doesn't seem available via kindle which is surprising

    Return of the isolating podcast from Monday?
    Would be great if he was back in Achill again.

    Is it returning or are you speculating?
    Doubt he's in Achill at the minute.

    Oooh, I hope so.

    Listened back to the very first week of them the other day. It's so different to what it ended up being like. He sounds really fed up at the start.
