What is 'How to be Irish?' (Intro)

To be Irish, is to be from the island of Ireland. Or so Google tells me. But have you ever considered what Irishness means to you?

I’m your host, Úna Harty, and I’m super curious about Irishness in the context of modern society. I’m so excited to be chatting to load of wonderful and wacky Irish personalities on this brand new podcast.

I want to go beyond the Book of Kells, the sraithphictiúrí and even Cheese and Onion Tayto kinds of Irishness. I’m going to be talking to Irish people who have a unique take on what it means to be Irish.

Each episode is based on a guests’ life, interests and perspectives, so I hope there will be something for everyone to enjoy.
