Talking History of all Sorts:

In this episode of North and South of the Gap, we’re joined by Tommy Graham — editor of History Ireland magazine, host of the History Ireland Hedge School, and a native of Ballyshannon.

Tommy shares stories from his own life and reflects on how growing up in the northwest shaped his interest in history. We dive into a wide range of topics — from the power of local stories to the big national narratives — and explore why understanding the past is essential for making sense of the present.

This is a lively, wide-ranging conversation with one of Ireland’s leading voices on history and public debate.
