To quote the show FRIENDS, "he was the one with the moustache."Welcome to 'Think You Know... The Presidents?' a Today FM original podcast brought to you by The Last Word.Episode 1 travels back in time to 1938, when Ireland appointed its first president. But why was Douglas Hyde chosen? What happened when WWII broke out right after his inauguration? And why did we call WWII ‘The Emergency' here in Ireland?

A leprechaun sent to the White House. A bomb shelter under Dublin's Merrion Square. A president swearing live on national radio. What do they all have in common? They're just some of the wild, wonderful and downright bizarre stories you probably won't have known about Ireland's presidents. If the walls of the Áras could talk, we'd have a full-on Netflix drama on our hands. But since it can't, two presidential experts are here to spill everything, from the president who ran the country from their bed to the one who ticked off the Pope and Stalin in one go, to the one who handed out ponies and deer as royal gifts. This is Think You Know... The Presidents? a Today FM original podcast from The Last Word. Each week, Lise Hand and Flor MacCarthy dig up the scandals and the game-changing moments from Ireland's nine presidents, delving into how events in Ireland were shaped by their actions and how the people of Ireland felt about each sitting president at the time.
