"Tommy Tiernan, Hector O’hEochagáin and Laurita Blewitt’s podcast iteration brings forth a charming look into Irish culture and the idiosyncrasies of a life lived in Ireland. Pure, unbridled storytelling lives here."
Score: 4.95

"The format is loose: we’re largely in the People Just Having a Chat podcast genre, though there’s clearly practice here too, with some stories that have been told and honed and polished until they gleam, while others meander off like shaggy dogs on a boreen. It’s funny and philosophical, and essentialist and annoying. Ultimately, Tommy, Hector and Laurita elevate having the chats to an artform. We’re the ones sitting at the next table over and cry-laughing into our pints."

"...at this stage, it's reassuring easy listening for your commute or morning coffee. And as with everything Tommy Tiernan touches lately, it'll probably be loved by the public."
