Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 28ú lá de mí na Samhna, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1999 tháinig a lán daoine cáiliúla chuig Dún Dealgan chun ómós a thabhairt chuig Jean Corr. Fuair Jean Corr bás I Newcastle nuair a bhí sí ag fanacht I gcóir trasphlandú scamhóige. I 2000 bhí Bill Clinton cinnte go mbeidh sé ag taisteal chuig Éirinn roimh an Nollaig, an tríú cuairt chuig Éirinn I cúig bliana. Cheap daoine go n-úsáidfidh Bill Clinton an chuairt chun cabhrú leis an phróiseas síochána. I 2008 chuaigh imreoir rugbaí na Mumhan chuig Meánscoil St Joseph. Chuaigh sé chuig an scoil leis an Heineken Cup a bhuaigh sé le foireann rugbaí na Mumhan. I 2010 bhí Crystal Swing ag The Source Arts Centre I Durlas ag canadh dá lucht éisteachta. Bhí an banna ceoil ar The Late Late Show cheana chomh maith leis an chlár Ellen DeGeneres. Sin Leann Rimes le Can't Fight The Moonlight – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2000. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1991 rinne Nirvana taifead don chlár teilifís Top Of The Pops I Londain. Chuireadh cheist orthu chun beol bheachtaigh a dhéanamh do Smells Like Teen Spirit. De bharr sin rinne Kurt Cobain agóid ag canadh ochtach níos lú. I 1992 shroich Whitney Houston uimhir a haon ar na cairteacha I Meiriceá lena amhrán I Will Always Love You ón scannán The Bodyguard. Scríobh Dolly Parton an t-amhrán. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Sonia O Sullivan I Corcaigh I 1969 agus rugadh amhránaí Randy Newman I gCalifornia I 1943 agus seo chuid de a amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo.

Former Ireland and Leinster Rugby legend Devin Toner joins me for a conversation about life pre, during and post professional rugby.   Devin gives great insights into the highs and lows of an impressive career that seen him become the all time record caps holder with Leinster rugby, with an impressive 280 caps.  With the highs including a Grand Slam win, 2 additional Six Nations titles and 4 European Champions Cups (formerly The Heineken Cup). And the lows including being left out of Ireland's World Cup squad in 2019, only a year after his best ever season winning both the Grand Slam with Ireland and the European Champions Cup with Leinster.  Devin also discusses life after rugby and the reality of having to start a completely new career in your mid 30's. And the exciting food & beverage businesses he is now involved with as an investor.  If you are a rugby fan or have an interest in entrepreneurship + investing this episode will have you engaged from start to finish.

Today I spoke to Damian Browne (Auld_Stock), an extreme adventurer, peak performance endurance athlete, and International keynote speaker from Galway, Ireland. For the last 25 years Damian has pursued his human potential, relentlessly pushing his body & mind to their perceived limits; During a 16-year career as a professional rugby player, Damian donned the colours of some of rugby's European elite, including Northampton Saints & Leinster; where he won club rugby's biggest prize, The Heineken Cup. Since retirement from professional rugby, Damian has become one of the World's foremost extreme adventurers; undertaking some of the most demanding physical and mental challenges on the planet, including the 257km Sahara Desert ultra marathon, The Marathon des Sables climbed 5 of the 7 Summits, a renowned mountaineering feat & most recently created history by becoming the first person ever to row from New York City to Galway, taking 112 days and in the process become one of only a handful of people to have rowed the Atlantic in both directions. Damian's drive to explore his physical & mental limits is not exclusive to ultra endurance events and he is a multi-time Irish indoor rowing champion, holding all-time, all-category records for the 500m and 1000m distance.

Dave Kearney, a product of the highly regarded Leinster academy, came through the rigorous selection process and made his debut for Leinster in 2009 having starred for the Ireland U20s that season. With the family having a strong history in Irish sport Dave credits an early Gaelic football career with Cooley Kickhams in Louth as contributing factor for his undoubted skill set within rugby. He went on to establish himself as a pivotal member of the Leinster squad and has gone on to make over 100 caps for his native province. Fearless under the high ball and the finishers instinct, Dave was first called into the Ireland squad in 2013, making his debut v Samoa and scored 2 tries. His decision making under pressure saw him bypass alot of Irish wings and he quickly became a permanent fixture at both club and country. Highly regarded by Joe Schmidt, he was an ever present in the 2014 Six nations Championship winning team, playing every minute alongside his brother Rob and Jamie Heaslip. He was also member of the Ireland World Cup squad in 2015.His consistency and ability to play anywhere across the back three, has been a key attribute to his success as a rugby player as well as his unselfish team first attitude. He has scored over 25 tries for Leinster and 4 for Ireland in a 17 cap career to date with his last cap coming in November 2017 v Fiji. With success breeding success breeding success he has won the Pro 14 on 3 occasions as well as the Heineken Cup and Six Nations Championship, where he had made a significant impact with his consistent fielding and ability to read defences and capitalise on any errors with his attacking acumen. A diligent and disciplined trainer and popular squad member, Dave has a lot to offer both on and off the pitch and has also concluded a degree in Sponsorship and Brand Management. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/portraitsofclongowes/message

Tim Stimpson, former England and British & Irish Lions rugby player, has been described as one of the most successful players of his generation. He was instrumental in helping the Leicester Tigers win the Premiership 4 times in a row, as well as back-to-back Heineken Cup's, and at the time, became the Premierships leading points scorer. What is evident when talking with Tim is his obvious passion for the game of rugby and his love of team. So, it was fascinating to chat with him about the transition out of the game into 'normal life' and the journey he has been on for the past 15 years as he has had to learn to pay attention to his own happiness and find new ways of being a husband, father and man. Thanks Tim for your honesty and willingness to share the ups and downs of life with me!Photo Credit: ESPN

The hardest man in the world to get hold of has finally given us an interview, and my god was it worth the wait. Paul Sackey a man who won the Premiership, Heineken Cup and was within a disallowed try of winning the World Cup spares no punches as he obliterates the sport of rugby and those he played with in an all revealing interview. He firstly offloads on us his disgust in the way his beloved Wasps has been handled, before attacking the RFU for the way they're ruining professional rugby - but when the pleasantries are seen to - its time for him to really offload. He quickly shares some wonderful memories of his great friend Shaun Edwards breaking one of his teammates noses during a party in a nightclub and also fond memories of partying the night away with the likes of David Haye and Claude Makelele - before revealing the shocking story behind why he got fired from Toulon.

Today we're joined by Damian Browne, a man who had an incredible rugby career including winning the Heineken Cup with Leinster, but has made a name for himself as an extreme adventurer. We talk to him merely a couple weeks after completing his most incredible expedition to date, when he became the first man in history to row the Atlantic Ocean solo from New York to Ireland. After losing his partner at sea with a suspected blood clot only 2 weeks into the row, Damian decided to complete the task by himself and therefore spent the next 95 days all alone at sea, with no human company, no one to talk to, just the storms of the ocean and his mind to keep him company. Rowing for over 12 hours a day non stop and having no human company for that long can break the strongest of men and when he had to spend 3 days locked into his capsized row boat in a deadly storm and his cabin started to flood, he thought it could be the end of his life. Listen to his incredible story now and find out what pushing your mind and body to the very edge feels like. --------- If you're bald or thinning on top, stop bloody feeling sorry for yourselves and go to the SONS website now, chose the 3 month package and you'll have a full head of hair or a new lid in time for Christmas!!!

The boys have their say on Wasps going into administration and England's squad for the Autumn Nations Series games. They are also joined by an absolute bonafide legend in both rugby codes - Shaun Edwards. He's amassed 54 medals in his glittering career as well as 36 caps for Great Britain and another 3 for England, he's a Man-of-Steel winner and captained Wigan in the crushing of Bath in the Cross Codes Clash. As a head coach he's won the Premiership and Heineken Cup with Wasps, as the best defensive coach around he's been on a Lions tour and won 5 Six Nations titles including 4 Grand Slams. We hear about the game that haunts Shaun the most, if he'd ever like to coach England one day, his karaoke skills and about the time he once used Hask's head as an actual punch bag!

Bryan Habana has achieved greatness while remaining solidly grounded and being a top quality human being. He soars - with his feet firmly on the ground. His career included winning trophies in the Currie Cup, Super Rugby, Heineken Cup, European Championship, Tri-nations, Lions series and World Cup; being named South African Rugby Player of the Year on three occasions, as well as International (IRB) Player of the Year; amassing 124 Springbok rugby caps and scoring 67 tries for his country, including an equal world record of eight tries in a World Cup. That's what Bryan the rugby player achieved. In this episode, you'll meet the person behind those accolades. The real, down-to-earth, small, skinny, fast kid who worked incredibly hard to achieve what he did; who made some mistakes along the way; who acknowledges the role that both other people and luck played in this journey; and who speaks openly about tough rugby players needing to speak openly - to be ok with being vulnerable. This and more. Bryan Habana is one of the true greats of the game. Here is the chance to meet the down-to-earth good guy who is fast, smart and real.
