Show Notes
Imelda may not have won the Great British Bake Off when she was there in 2018, but I can unequivocally say she makes the best vegan apple tarts known to man. Imelda is passionate about food, and more precisely, Irish food. She wants us to return to a time where you knew the butcher and the fish monger by name. When the apples in the supermarket came from the orchard down the road, and not South Africa. She wants us to be proud of what we produce here and rescue all the hand written, Irish recipes that are in danger of being forgotten. She showcases old recipes on her online platforms, in the hopes of spreading the love of Irish food throughout the world, but also at home!

What Brian (and his co-directors) have done in Sligo is pretty amazing. Back in his teens, he recognised a need for an arts space in the town. Somewhere young people could hang out, collaborate and make great art. Somewhere that wasn’t centred around alcohol. After a lot of research, site visits and funding applications, The Nest was born. It’s a multi-purpose space that hosts band rehearsals, pole classes, repair shops and soon a cafe.
Death has been the uninvited guest in Joe and Mary’s beautiful home for the past 15 years. Twice in his life, his family were told to say their ‘goodbyes’. They made funeral plans, shared the passwords, got all the affairs in order. His doctors have thankfully pulled him back from the brink on both occasions.
I’ve known Tuesday since we worked together in a record store when we were very young. My memories are hazy at best, we were a wild pair who egged each other on and partied a lot. Then, like so many people our age, she flitted off to Australia in search of better opportunities.
From a high flying, well paid job in Australia, to running a campsite in Ballaghderreen while recording albums in a yurt. Life can come at you fast sometimes and take you in directions you never imagined.
Chris is extremely passionate about his work, native trees, and sustainability. Thankfully his new job involves lots of trees in very sustainable ways! Chris took a risk, quit a long standing job and joined a rapidly growing company in Roscommon. They build sustainable, timber, modular homes from their massive factory. They've figured how to quickly supply safe and cosy buildings, such as schools, in record time. Maybe this will finally herald the end of freezing cold prefabs!
