About this episode
It's been two months that's changed his life. In his first interview since making his debut in the NFL, Charlie Smyth discusses his breakthrough year. Doubts, not finishing the season in the way he hoped and what's next. At times, it's been lonely and there's the reality of when it goes wrong. The brilliance of Jude McAtamney dashed in an hour. The online abuse directed towards the Swatragh man at the New York Giants led to Charlie taking a break from social media. It's intense. We also discus identity. Being Irish, not Northern Irish. Requesting the New Orleans Saints to reflect his Irishness, in a respectful way. We listen to the efforts Charlie has made to reflect who he is and what's important to him. There's a steel and drive within the Mayobridge man and there's plenty more to come. The GAA Social is back and this is the brilliant story of Charlie Smyth
