It's been a few months since we closed out series one of Episode sitting at Damien Dempsey's kitchen table, and to mark the first show of the new series, we're bringing you an exclusive interview. Last week, Richie and Killian travelled to France to sit down with Vera Pauw at her home in the Dordogne, as she speaks publicly for the first time since the week the FAI declined to renew her contract seven months ago. Vera describes the impact she felt the allegations published just before the World Cup in The Athletic about her time as manager of the Houston Dash - allegations which she denies - had on Ireland's World Cup campaign, and how she thinks she is now unemployable in the western world. She also responds to Diane Caldwell's suggestion that everything Ireland achieved, including their first World Cup qualification, was in spite of Vera being their manager, and outlines the disconnect she feels with the team she spent four years with.

In this episode we look at a very difficult time in Ireland - one that triggered a time of death across the population of the island as well as emigration for many generations afterwards. I'm talking, of course, about "An Gorta Mór" - also known as "The Great Hunger" or "The Great Famine" of the mid 1800s.The first letter looks at a particular landless class in Ireland - who formed a sizeable percentage of our population - but who were, more or less, wiped out during the Famine.I wrote the second letter when I came across an account from 1847 which profiled particular families in a townland in West Cork. That account was all about my own O'Regan ancestors of that townland. It certainly stopped me in my tracks!We also have Irish songs of emigration (and one on optimism for the future) to help us focus on this time.Music featured in this episode:"Spancil Hill" performed by The Wolfe Tones."The Emigrants Farewell" performed by Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh."The West's Awake" performed by Lumiere and Damien Dempsey.Support the Letter from Ireland Show:Thank you for listening to the Letter from Ireland show.

This is, of course, a very personal and subjective collection - and I'm sure you will agree with some and disagree with many.

On today's show we kick off our annual Christmas thank you's, Ray chats to Lorna Kinsella Cassan who is surprising her friend Maighread Campbell live on air, we have live music from Damien Dempsey Annie West talks to us about the RTÉ Christmas guide and Conor Pope is back with pricewatch.

I am really excited to introduce my guest for this episode, the one and only, Damien Dempsey. It was a dream come true to get to have this chat with Damien, described by many as the "Voice of a Generation."If you're a Damo fan, you'll know that his song “Apple of My Eye” is all about his love for New York City - and in our conversation he tells me about how coming here as a young musician helped him to believe in himself and how he met some of his greatest friends and mentors here in the City. As a young musician in Dublin, Damien felt that people looked down on him for writing songs about the social issues of modern-day Ireland, and for singing in his own accent. These are two important attributes that have come to define Damien as an Artist.When he was in his twenties, Damien came to New York and played his songs in the famous Manhattan bar ‘Rocky Sullivan's' – which attracted an eclectic group of artists, writers, NYPD officers, lawyers and politicians back in the day. Rocky's  was owned by a mutual friend of ours – retired NYPD Chief of Homicide and proud Irish American, Brian McCabe, who kindly made this episode possible.  When I started this podcast I had a list of ‘dream guests' and Damien Dempsey was one of them - so I am beyond grateful that I got to have him on In this episode Damien speaks honestly about the shame and guilt we have been forced to feel as a Nation, His respect for the Irish that travelled the world and set down a framework for future generations and the importance of spirituality, of travelling the world and how music can help us through life.I really got so much from this conversation with Damo and I hope you find some comfort and inspiration from his message. 

One of Ireland's greatest songwriters and one of Dublin's finest ambassadors joins us this week. Damo talks to us about everything from growing up in Donaghmede to making his break into music, his outlook and philosophy on life, his legendary gigs and cult following - and he has a zinger that leaves the lads completely stumped. And, of course, Damo plays a few tunes for us - and he nearly takes the roof off the place.

This week Ryan to spoke to an Irish woman about her success in LA, Damien Dempsey and director Ross Killeen on their inspiring documentary, the story of the Irish man who designed and built the White House, Donal Ryan and his novel, The Queen of Dirt Island, and James Nolan on representing Ireland at the European Transplant and Dialysis Games.

Damien Dempsey and director Ross Killeen join Ryan in studio. The documentary Love Yourself Today airs on RTÉ One on Thursday at 10.15PM.

After a previous sell out run, The Buttonmen returns to the Viking Theatre, Dublin on August 15-24.  Centered around the lives of two brothers who work as dockers in the early 1970s, it features new songs which Brown has co-written with the well-known singer and songwriter Damien Dempsey.

This was the second interview I did with Damien, and true to form, he took the chat beyond the usual trivia people too often talk about on music shows. Here he is telling truths and talking "real stuff" about, yes, the music that made him, and his own music, but also about a far broader range of relevant subjects.
