Hello! Here's a revamped version of an episode from 2019 about another Irish man who helped start a different world class football team. By god we're good. . Original Blurb: "This week Jason tells Kevin about Paddy McCarthy, a Tipperary man who took the boat to South America and became a major figure in Argentinian football.

Given the big week of football coming up we're sticking with that theme as Jason tells Kevin about Don Patricio, Patrick O'Connell, one of the greatest footballing figures to come out of this island! Not to give too much of the story away, but we'll be talking Man United betting scandals, Barcelona on the brink of collapse, and Ireland actually winning a tournament!

Hello, here's another Shite Talk Film Club with the amazing and very talented Killian Sundermann (⁠he's on tour now go check him out⁠). It's football month this month so we decided to watch Studs, a 2006 classic where new manager Brendan Gleeson tries to help Emmet Rovers get out of a rut at the bottom of the league. .

Hello, we're back with another season of Shite Talk: An Irish History Podcast! For the next few weeks we'll be jumping on the World Cup bandwagon with some football tales, like the Irishman who saved Barcelona F.C. and George Best (would have been 80 this April god save us).  It's also 110 years since the 1916 rising so we'll be covering some of the lesser talked about parts of that, as well as the recapping the first Census in the free state in 1926. We also have some great guest episodes coming up (Killian Sundermann on Studs, Roger O'Sullivan on the 1995 Rainbow Government, Aideen McQueen on Circle of Friends, and Davy Holden on all things Kilkenny). But to kick us off next Tuesday the 17th we're going to be doing a deep dive into Ireland's most beloved Welshman, the king of snakes himself, St. Patrick. Learn more about your ad choices.
