Come on.

I’ve never listened to this podcast before but the first twenty minutes with Blind Boy was an ad for patreon. Please give me some content before I have to pay. Entertain me or inspire me and I’ll gladly pay. Come on lads.

DNA says 1% Irish

I’m clearly not very Irish.......but I enjoy this podcast very much. The interviews are thoughtful and inspiring. A great escape for a long commute in Chicago.

Tom Dunne Magic

I just started listening to this today and Tom Dunne was fantastic. I miss Irish Radio so much, it’s so good to listen to a really good interview. I can’t wait to hear more.

Excellent

I’m from Ireland but living in North Carolina the past 10 years. I drive all day for my job. This Podcast has some of the best interviews of any out there. It’s the first podcast I check to see if there’s a new episode. Highly recommend it to anyone living abroad.

Thank you!

As an Irishman who has lived in Nashville for 20 years this podcast brings me so much joy hearing about the success of fellow Irish citizens living abroad. Thank you!

Great podcast

Amazing content and discussion each week with a wide range of interesting people. Definitely worth a listen!

Fabulous - can't do without it!

This is the business - I wish we could get more than one a week they are that good! Always informative, entertaining and inspiring. For an irish person exiled twice over (UK and now USA), it's often moving and yet brings you closer to home each time you listen. Great work Jarlath - more power to your elbow! The range of guests from differing backgrounds is superb and often there's a great treat in store when a really huge name pops up as that week's guest. It's a constant gym and running companion.

One of the best interviewers out there

I've learnt so much about the guests on this show due to Jarlath's style of actually listening rather than interrupting. If you're Irish at home or abroad this is a must listen.

Love the enlightening interviews

I've told so many of my friends and relatives to check out this podcast. I love the long-form interviews, you really feel as though you're listening to an in-depth personal conversation between two of your favorite people. And hearing about how so many successful people got their start is inspiring and motivating. It's definitely worth a listen.

Fantastic podcast for any Irish person around the world!
Joe Leacy

A brilliant podcast for the diaspora

Couldn't recommend the podcast highly enough. The hour long format gives ample time for an in depth and revealing conversation. It's a particularly good listen if you are away from home.

Great insights every week

Jarlath has developed into a great interviewer over the past year. Every week offers up a nugget, great listening for you any Irish,especially those abroad

Jamie Heaslip believes in Santa

Loved this interview. Jarlaith really seemed to hit a nerve with the mention of drugs in rugby and Heaslip did not like it, and was a bit of a dick, imo. But jarlaith did a good job of getting him back into the groove. A great listen.

New favorite

Absolutely loving this podcast. Great guests, great stories, and I really admire Jarlath’s interview skills. He asks great questions and then gets out of the way so the guest can shine. Looking forward to hearing much more.

Brilliant!

This podcast is great, I discovered it through the Tommy Tiernan episode and have since listened to around 20 episodes while I'm at work here in Texas (Originally from Mullingar)
David Shone

Excellent podcast

Great interviewer, great guests, great show. Look forward to it every week
AgataBlue

Always renews my determination to live fully

Most of the people Jarlath Regan interviews are new to me. But this podcast has become one of my favorites. There seems to be something special to take away from each person’s story. Michael Smiley was incredible.

Great podcast

Some great guests. Particularly enjoyed Tony Cascarino.

Another Great Jarlath Interview

I've only been able to listen to a few of your Irishman Aboard interviews, but you do a great job of interviewing your guests. It's always about them. I just listened to the Robert Sheehan interview and find him to be such a delightful person. I first saw him on Love/Hate and loved Darren and was shocked when his character "departed" the show. This was another 5-stars, thumbs up interview.

Doesn't get better than this

Wish I knew about this podcast months ago. Every interview is wonderful, with interesting questions posed by Jarlath and an easy rapport between interviewer and interviewee. You don't need to be an expat pining for Ireland to enjoy this, but its especially meaningful if you emigrated from Ireland. A gem of a podcast.

Wicked good show

One of the best interview based podcasts. Extremely interesting and insightful!

I read about this podcast in an article about different things to try in the new year. I am really enjoying listening to the archived interviews. I've been telling friends and family to check it out. Keep up the great work.

Really enjoyed the Graham Linehan and Chris O'Dowd interviews.
NationalDisgrace

One of the best

Consistently interesting - a stellar line up of guests that Jarlath really gets the best out of… Take the time to download and listen
Mattcogan

A pleasure

I'm a bit late to this podcast, but am so glad I found it. It's really great. As an Irish person abroad, it is really nice that to hear from other people (more successful that me) and their experiences which somehow are not that different. Really worth checking out
ClareEgan

Love it!

Love this podcast - look forward to it every week.
Paddydaddyd

My favorite podcast

I never really heard of Jarlath Regan until I searched for Chris o' Dowd interviews and stumbled across this one and now I am a subscriber and cannot get enough of this podcast! Future guests Maybe Brendan O' Carroll? Great job Jarlath keep up the good work
kamuela3

Awesome podcast!

I highly recommend this podcast, especially the Dara O’Brian episode (my favorite so far). Fascinating and funny stuff!
Alexandriarob

A must listen

As an avid podcaster, I have to say this is the one podcast that I look forward to every week. As an Irishman in Washington DC, it is fascinating to hear how the diaspora share a common sense of Irishness despite being scattered to the four corners! The show serves up an eclectic mix of interviews with Irish people abroad with some "pure gems" already. A big thank you to Jarlath for providing one hour of pure listening pleasure each week. Keep it Com'in!!!!

Cappolka

Love the show.

Like overhearing a lovely conversation at the pub while waiting to get the bartenders attention. I'm learning a lot about Ireland and the fine Irish people, as well.
Suwie74

Great podcast

I am so glad I found this podcast. Very interesting subject matter and a great format. I am in the process of listening to the older podcasts as well. I would recommend this to anyone.
Cracksteen1989

Awesome show

What a wonderful glimpse into the truth of fame and the struggles of even the most talented people. I find it very powerful and I'm really glad this exists!!

A Steak Dinner of a Podcast

Jarlath Regan has produced a series of thoroughly researched and intelligently presented interviews, detailing the emigrant experiences of Irish people who have gone abroad and found success in their personal and professional lives. The most impressive aspect of this series, for me, is his ability to connect on many emotional levels with his guests and encourage them to share funny, inspiring and often very personal details of their lives about leaving Ireland to make a life elsewhere. There is real skill and talent at work here that offers the listener real and meaningful insight into the lives of the interviewees. I'll be making a podcast donation, the Dylan Moran interview alone is worthy of it. Wonderful stuff, please keep it going!
Boomboombazza

Excellent!

Five stars, top class. Entertaining, intelligent, funny and witty in equal measure!

An Irish View of the World

Top notce podcast - interesting guests, a host that is a real human who asks the questions you wish you had thought of, and topics that relate to all of us, Irish or not. Great work, Jarlath.
Cathal MacGabhann

Great podcasts.

One of the best podcasts I’ve come across. Very interesting for anyone, but especially Irish people living abroad.
CiaranHudson

Great in depth interviews

Really good interviews with people from different walks of life. You think you might know the story of the interviewee’s success, but Jarlath has a way of getting more out of these guys (neutral) than you’d expect.
