Well here we are, the final episode of the season! Thank you guys SO much for listening across this season and for all of the support for the podcast. It means the world. For the final episode, let me get this bit out of the way first - my guest, Mark McCabe (yes of Maniac 2000 fame) accidentally became one of my best mates. In fact, I didn't know he was THE Mark McCabe for the first year and a half of us knowing each other (I explain this better in the episode 😂). With Maniac 2000 turning 25 y...

When recording this episode with Anna, the two of us sat down for what felt like 15 minutes but soon realised almost an hour had gone by. You know one of those people who you can just chat to about everything and anything. Anna is an amazing person, with some incredible stories to tell. This one gets deep after approximately 14 seconds 😂 But it was a great chat and one that I found really helpful when it came to Anna's advice and thoughts around the pressure of perfection that comes with life t...

This episode felt like I was also having a chat with about 20 different global sports stars! Conor Moore is an incredible talent, and someone who has worked with some of the BIGGEST sports stars in the world. But as you'll hear from the episode, that hasn't changed the fact that he is one of the most down to earth, humble lads you could meet. I loved this chat with Conor (and everyone else who ended up in the room 😂), and I really hope you enjoy this episode of Phone Truths. Brought to you by S...

Well come on, I had to have Donners on the podcast! This week I caught up with one of my greatest friends, my former colleague and all round pain in the arse Donncha O’Callaghan. We kick things off by catching up about a secret bet we had with each other at Doireann’s wedding! We obviously chat about his brand new book 'Disaster Dad', he tells us about one particularly special team mate, and we also clear the air on some behind the scenes beef! Donncha is honestly one of the kindest people I’ve ...

Episode 8 is here and from the very get go, today’s guest was one of the very first people I messaged to have on the podcast. Being honest I thought there wasn’t a hope in hell she’d have the time to even read my message but when she replied saying she was up for it I was buzzing! Rosie Connolly has had an INSANE four years by anyone’s standard. She’s gone from being one of the biggest influencers in the country to heading up a clothing brand that’s taken off faster than anyone could have ever i...

This episode felt like having a conversation with a therapist who was also a happens to be a comedian! The very first time I met Dermot Whelan I called him Dave…good start (more of the embarrassing details on that in the podcast). When he decided to walk away from being half of one of Ireland’s most successful radio duos, a lot of us wondered was he out of his mind. Well it turns out it was quite the opposite. For anyone who struggles with their relationship with their phone, this one is filled ...

The second we had today’s episode recorded, I couldn’t wait for it to be released! I knew from following Caroline Hirons online that this was always going to be amazing craic, but my god I still wasn’t prepared for the laugh we had. From the hell of lockdown, to accidentally writing a number 1 bestselling book, to becoming a grandmother and all the highs and lows in between. I really hope you enjoy. Brought to you by Sky Mobile.

Eric Roberts is someone who I've wanted to chat to for so long. We've briefly met on a couple of occasions, but never long enough for a good catch up. So that's pretty much what you're going to hear in today's episode 😂 The way in which his online career took off during lockdown was life changing, and in today's episode we hear about how Eric's life went from working as an SNA in Donegal, to rubbing shoulders with top celebs and traveling the world. There was even an appearance on Netflix throw...

I'm not gonna lie lads, this one is a rollercoaster! This week's guest is Arthur Gourounlian and WHAT a chat it was. He has lived the most incredible life, and I know you'll all go from laughing, to having your jaw on the floor, to shedding the odd tear in this episode. And yes, before anyone asks, we also get into what he REALLY thought of my dance skills on Dancing With The Stars too! Arthur is a gem in every sense of the word, and I came away from this chat feeling like I was glowing. I reall...

For our third episode, we have someone who is one of the OGs of the Irish Instagram scene—Pippa O'Connor. I always knew this chat with Pippa was going to be unbelievably fun, and there is LOADS of that in here. But we also delved into some of the amazing stories that have shaped her into the formidable businesswoman she is today, as well as how she has dealt with personal loss, business setbacks, and trying to juggle her business ventures while being a mam at the same time. This was a brilliant ...

Ok full disclosure, I had a bit of a fanboy moment recording today's episode. Our guest on Phone Truths this week is Baz Ashmawy. He's someone who's work I've always loved, and to be honest he's one of the main people I've looked up to from a career perspective for years. So to get to chat to him on today's episode was such a joy. This one goes from deep Dad chats, to a phone call that changed everything for Baz, to sleeping on pool tables whilst waiting to be saved by the Swiss. This was such a...

Our very first episode of Phone Truths, here we go! And to kick it all off, I'm reunited with my pal Doireann Garrihy. We (obviously) chat about her upcoming wedding, and get into the highs and lows of life in the public eye. We also hear about what goes on in her Sister's WhatsApp group, and her incredibly lucky escape. Thank you so much to Doireann for being my very first guest and for sharing her phone truths, I hope you love today's episode. Brought to you by Sky Mobile. Hosted on Acast. See...
