This show is basically people speaking about their journey learning Irish but there’s really no actual language learning to be gained and few Irish words used. Some promotion of the subscription learning products where I guess the real learning can happen. Some of the guests and chats are ok but...Read full review »

Very entertaining and helpful podcast on the Irish language and all things Irish. The host is a congenial guide, and the guests are always interesting in the perspectives they bring.

I live in the UK. My mother was from Kerry and I am fortunate to still have an aunt and uncle and many many cousins still there that I go and see at least every one or two years. I have recently decided to start to learn the Irish language on Duolingo. Then I came across a link to this podcast on...Read full review »

Oh wow what a GEM this is to stumble upon as I stumble and navigate my way through learning Irish (in Los Angeles) in 2023. I was recommended this podcast and I’ve gone back to the first episodes of the revamp in 2018 and following from there. The ones prior of conversations w learners are so...Read full review »

I’m marching through season one, while pruning grape vines in Connecticut, and couldn’t be happier! The show is warm, funny, sincere and informative. I’ll see you in the current episodes soon enough.

Designed for Americans learning Irish. Not really teaching Irish for Irish people looking to learn more. Talking to Americans about their journey learning Irish. Since the restart it's about half a sales pitch for the online course. Also slight white pride tones, talking about a mystical...Read full review »

I listen to podcasts on both my commute and when I’m working. It’s so difficult to find interesting topics and well produced podcasts.

Hiya! Go raibh maith agat for your podcast!

I’m really enjoying the podcast, and I’ve got a bit to catch up on since I’ve only just discovered it. I’ve been meaning to get around to learning Irish for a while for a variety of reasons. Mainly because I’m a bit of a language nerd, I’ve got some Irish ancestry, and I have enjoyed every visit...Read full review »

I’m a Limerick man living in Australia for the past ten years. This podcast is great and helps me deal with living so far from home when the homesickness creeps up on you. I want to develop my Irish again too, I haven’t spoken a word in ten years and I wasn’t very good them either. Go raibh...Read full review »
