In episode 6 of the second series, Ann speaks to musician Niall Quinn. Niall is the drummer with iconic Limerick band, The Hitchers. The band have just released their 1997 debut album on vinyl for the first time. www.thehitchers.ie for a listen. Niall's three things bring the listener on a journey from warplanes to the symbolism of cymbals and whether the 1990 penalty shoot out against Romania counts as a win anywhere other than our hearts. Three Things That Matter is hosted by local playwright, performer and musician, Ann Blake. In each episode a different guest will be interviewed and asked to ‘bring' three things that matter to them. These may vary from books and plants to places and occasions. The three things provide a jumping off point for discussion of the extraordinary in the every day. About The Hitchers: Releasing two albums and a slew of EPs in the late 90's the Limerick band came to the attention of legendary BBC DJ John Peel who championed the bands debut UK release It's All Fun & Games Til Someone Loses An Eye and had the band record a session for his show that gets repeat broadcasts to the present day. The 'Strachan/You Can Only Love Someone' double a-side single won many more friends, plaudits and award nominations (pipped to the Best Irish Single gong by Ash' A Life Less ordinary ...no shame in that) as did the bands follow up LP 'For The Want of Some Better TV' and the band were an ever present on the gigging circuits of Ireland and Britain earning a reputation for spikey punk-pop, acerbic, witty lyricism, terrace-chant chorus' and ultimately for fiery live performances. Though The Hitchers officially de-mobbed in 2001 they have, over the years, regrouped for one-off shows and mini-tours. Media interest in the band is rekindled biennially around the time of World Cups and European Championships which led to Guardian readers voting 'Strachan' the 'greatest football song EVER'. In 2019 BBCs Steve Lamacq curated ‘Lost Alternatives' a 2x12” album of his favourite bands from his time on the wireless and marking his 25th Anniversary with the BBC. He selected The Hitchers 'Strachan' to close the album -setting them alongside, amongst others, Teenage Fanclub, Snuff, Sleeper, Travis, Compulsion, Cornershop, China Drum and Suede. Similarly Warner Bros Germany approached the band for permission to use the song on '11 Freunde -the album' where The Hitchers would find themselves in an even more rarefied air scenario -rubbing shoulders with some of their own biggest heroes including Billy Bragg, The Wedding Present, The Proclaimers, New Order and Half Man Half Biscuit. In their own words: Niall Quinn -"In the UK it's fair to say The Hitchers are mainly remembered for Strachan. That was the tune that got played most and still gets played and knocked about and that stirs up interest when the world cup or the Euros roll around. Then in Ireland, despite the fact Strachans fellow 'Fun & Games' single Killed It With My Bare Hands gave us our highest chart placing (an unassailable #58!) I sometimes think it's more the Red Mohair Jumper/She'll Be Sorry era stuff that immediately preceded Strachan and the two albums that rings bells with people. Then, more locally again, when you come home to Limerick there's this palpable thing about the 'teenage' Hitchers -the one with Eoin and Benny and Bombs in Baskets of Fruit. So I tend to think of The Hitchers less like a band and more like Dallas. There's some characters who are integral to the story who are only in it for the first couple of seasons. But still the story runs..."

Three Things That Matter with Ann Blake | Guest: Annette Flynn In episode 5 of the second series, Ann speaks to actress Annette Flynn who is performing in Bottom Dog Theatre's upcoming production, Gravity (A Love Story). Annette's three things bring the listener on a journey from the beaches of Sligo to the challenges of answering tourist questions and the Irish Mammy's love of letting you know what neighbour died - whether you knew them or not. Annette, from Ballina in Co. Mayo, is probably best known to Irish audiences for her role as fun-loving teacher Maeve in Fair City and more recently as the mother in the Littlewoods Christmas ad. She notched a few more soaps on her belt, notably Eastenders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks, following a move across the pond to London.  In 2020 Annette was named as one of 'Mayo's 18 most inspirational and trailblazing women at home and abroad' by RSVP alongside the likes of Sally Rooney, Aoibhinn Ni Shuilleabhain and fellow Ballina women Dr. Norah Patten (Ireland's first astronaut) and Mary Robinson.
