I had the absolute pleasure of having Irish Times Sports Journalist Malachy Clerkin join the pod for episode 7. Malachy talks about how a mistake on his college CAO form led him to the job he loves. We talked about growing up in Monaghan Town during an era of influential sports stars like Maradona and McGuigan. Malachy also talks about his own time as right back for his local soccer club, the big move to Dublin for college and the competition win that got him into the Sunday Tribune. Malachy is one of Ireland’s finest sports writers, and we get into how he learned to engage the reader telling stories from a different angle. We also discuss the books he has written, and chatting to his mates at Second Captains. Hope you enjoy it, please subscribe to the podcast and share about.
