Show Notes
Before Christmas, we're bringing you a number of special podcasts. We start with Mayo and Jack Carney. In the most remarkable 2026, the Kilmeena midfielder has led Mayo to their first All-Ireland in 75 years. What was it like? Was it spoken about before lifting Sam? What are the special moments, bringing the cup to Mayo. A fabuous insight into what the past three months has been like for Mayo, articulated beautifully by Jack. On Friday he will join David Clifford and Ryan O'Donoghue for the 2026 Player of the Year award at the All-stars. It's been hard earned. What's next? The magic of Mayo, all through the eyes of Jack Carney.
