Author Marian Keyes talks to Brendan about love and sex in midlife; introversion; how she's hoping for an ADHD diagnosis; why she doesn't follow the news and why she believes travel should always be a little uncomfortable. Her latest book ‘My Favourite Mistake' is out now in paperback, published by Penguin Books.

Two weeks ago to mark Ireland Reads we put the callout for reluctant readers or people who fell out of the habit of reading, and so we met Ronán McDermott who we challenged to pick up a book again. He told Oliver how he got on reading Rachel's Holiday by Marian Keyes.

There is a lovely thread of anger kicking off this episode - is it because Hannah's been to the football? Lads lads lads? Did it get camp and criminal? Big S admits to being a donkey and tells a sad serum tale and we discuss our opinions of Jesse Eisenberg and Marian Keyes. The stories this week we think are PARTICULARLY juicy and creepy.So grab a hot tea (OR COFFEE), get cosy, turn the lights down and enjoy... Story One - Suzie narrates a story from Venezuela called "El Silbón" (she's showing off her Spanish. again.)Story Two - 'Creepy Packages' narrated by Hannah - ever heard of Hummel Figurines?Story Three - a particularly spooky tale about a sleepover and a back scratch narrated by Big S.Story Four - Hannah tells us a story about Suzanne living by the sea and her poor drowned Bobby...Creep of the Week is from ANNIE! She's sent a CLASSIC in, and we love it. V nostalgic. Thank yew hun.Finally we end with a lottery ticket - spoiler - we didn't win 55 million pounds. Sigh.ENJOY HUNS.xoxoJOIN OUR PATREON!

Audiobooks have become big business, and naturally you may have listened to some big name actors narrating your favourite novel.But, they're certainly not always narrated by Hollywood alumni, and that's at least partly because it's quite a specific skill that requires one to carefully walk the line between narrator and character actor.That's not something every actor can do. So, what does it take to record an audiobook?Aoife McMahon is one of Ireland's most in-demand audiobook narrators, having recorded more than 200 titles, including best-sellers by Marian Keyes, Sally Rooney, Jo Spain and Colm Tóibín. She joins Seán to discuss.

The international bestselling author returns to the Walsh family in her latest novel My Favorite Mistake; Bridget Raymundo shares what books the internet was loving this year; the book that defines “genre-bending” to Matthew R.

Marian Keyes, one of the most successful authors in the world, has forgotten how to read three times. Once when she fell into a pit of depression that lasted four years and nearly cost her her marriage and her life. Once at the start of Covid. And last year, after her father died. Marian joins Mia Freedman to reveal how she got through it, as well as how she let go of bitterness and grief that came with not being able to have children with her husband.And despite thinking alcohol was the love of her life she’s managed to stay sober for 30 years. Why does she still call herself an alcoholic?

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 18ú lá de mí na Samhna, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1984, thóg siad na mílte Mars Bars ó gach siopa sa Bhreatain de bharr gur mhaígh gníomhaite go raibh nimh francach ann. Fuair na póilíní na barra seacláide le rudaí isteach ann, ach ní raibh aon truailliú ann. I 2006 bhí daoine cáiliúla sa Róimh do phósadh Tom Cruise agus Katie Holmes. Bhí daoine cáiliúla ann cosúil le David Beckham, Jim Carey agus Jennifer Lopez. Fuair an cúpla pósta I gcaisleán meánaoiseacha. I 1971 bhí contae Luimnigh ag iarradh an teoirainn a mhéadú. Dhiúltaigh Contae an Chláir é de bharr rátaí réadmhaoin áitiúla. I 2006 chuir údar Marian Keyes rud suas ar a shuíomh gréasáin. Dúirt sí go raibh Kenny's I Leath Inse a teach tábhairne is fearr sa domhain. Sin chaka Kahn le I Feel For You an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1984. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo – I 2007 sháraigh buaiteoir X Factor Leona Lewis curraíocht sa Bhreatain don albam a dhíol is tapúla, darbh ainm Spirit. I 2017 fuair giotáraí Malcom Young bás ag aois 64. Bhí sé ina bhall bunaidh de ACDC. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo, rugadh Ant McPartlin sa Bhreatain I 1975 agus is láithreoir é ar an teilifís. Agus rugadh aisteoir Owen Wilson I Texas I 1968 agus seo chuid de a rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo.

What a pleasure, what lark! Talking to Barbara Scully about becoming more ourselves, knowing the privilege of ageing, cultivating a habit of gratitude, and making decisions on our own attitude... uáu! I loved our conversation, a chara! Barbara is an accomplished writer, columnist, and broadcaster, comedian, and BANLAOCH (female warrior). She is frequently published in the national press and magazines. Her first book, ‘Wise Up, Power, Wisdom and the Older Woman' was published in summer 2022 and has been widely well-received. Marian Keyes described it as “a warm, accessible, personal account of what it is to be a woman - and the unexpected courage and freedom we get as we age”. Barbara is a familiar voice on radio and TV, contributing to talk shows on both local and national radio (including RTE Radio One) and she is one half of the very popular So You Think You're An Adult slot every week on the Moncrieff Show on Newstalk with Declan Buckley. She is an experienced MC and public speaker and her popular talk, entitled “What If The Best Is Yet To Come” has been delivered to both corporate and public audiences. In 2023 Barbara inadvertently dipped her toes into stand-up comedy. It went better than she expected and so she did it again at the Funny Women show in Whelans in May 2024. As a result she is now working on her own one woman show which she hopes to perform later this year. Follow Barbara on Instagram @barbarascully111 and on X @barbarascully. Wise Up is available from www.barbarascully.com and also on Amazon.

Send your thoughts, feelings, opinions and suggestions to 0892096423!Kelly Earley is a writer who I was previously familiar with via her very unserious contributions to the Daily Edge (we worked there at different times) and generally gas posts on social media.

I caught up with her this week to discuss some of the challenges many people from areas like Coolock face when it comes to personal development, how the far right take advantage of that, and what could be done to improve things.

Send your thoughts, feelings, opinions and suggestions to 0892096423!Erica Tierney was one of the first guests I had on in the early days of this podcast. Life was getting back to normal for her after having a baby and being treated for breast cancer all at the same time, but she was determined to make a change for women like her whose maternity leave was taken up by cancer treatment. The political will was there, and it felt like change was coming, but two years later nothing has changed. This week, I spoke to Erica again. She is back in the world of cancer, having been diagnosed with breast cancer again, and more determined than ever to improve things for other women.
