Join Irish actor Amilia Keating and reality TV star Kelly Donegan as they embark on a heartfelt journey through their millennial past, now seen through the transformative lens of motherhood.
Coming from the heart of Dublin, Ireland, these childhood friends from West Dublin never imagined their lives would lead them from their humble beginnings to the spotlight. Amilia, best known for her role as Katy O’Brien in the beloved Irish soap Fair City, and Kelly, who rose to fame on the scandalous Irish reality show Tallafornia, share their unique perspectives as they reconnect in their 30s.
After drifting apart after school, fate has reunited them, and they now navigate the ups and downs of raising young children in Ireland, while reflecting on how far they've come from their mischievous youth.
In this candid podcast, Amilia and Kelly dive deep into the complexities of motherhood—exploring themes of identity loss, shifting self-esteem, mental health struggles, and those intrusive thoughts we often keep to ourselves. They aim to shine a light on the raw, unfiltered realities of parenting in Ireland, as well as the moments we’re not “supposed” to talk about, all while staying true to their Irish roots—no-nonsense, straight-talking, and full of heart.
Tune in for an engaging blend of nostalgia, honesty, and laughter, as Amilia and Kelly explore their Irish pasts, their Dublin roots, and the lessons they hope to impart to their children in Ireland and beyond.
As they reminisce about their mischievous childhood adventures in Dublin, Ireland, they also reflect on how their pasts shaped their present. Together, they tackle the tough conversations they’ll eventually have with their own kids about their time on Irish television, all while trying to figure out how to explain their youthful escapades in a way that resonates with the next generation.

Episode 19 – What's True Crime Got to Do with It ? Sketchy and Unfiltered
Like most of the world, we’re addicted to true crime—but this week, we’re taking a deep dive into the cases that haunted our childhoods, shaped our fears, and sparked our morbid curiosity. From the notorious crimes that gripped Ireland, the UK, and beyond, to our own brushes with crime (yes, actual arrests were involved), we’re revisiting the dark, the bizarre, and the downright unbelievable.
Kelly shares the time she drank in a Ballyfermot pub with one of the biggest crime families in Ireland, while Amil opens up about her own experience with stalking—because, as women, we’re uncomfortably familiar with the reality of crime. We also look at the crimes that shook the nation, from the murder of Veronica Guerin to the disappearance of Kyran Durnin. We remember the cases that dominated the headlines—Madeleine McCann, The Soham murders, The Watts family killings, and the big-name serial killers who became legends in their own right.
It’s nostalgic, chilling, and weirdly fun as we swap childhood memories of scary stories, news reports, and the crimes that made us triple-check our locks. We also get into Scandinavian thrillers, Henry VIII’s murderous legacy, school shootings in the USA, The Dublin riots, and the crimes that hit far too close to home—including the dangers parents need to be aware of today, from Coco’s Law to online threats.
True crime is more than just a guilty pleasure—it’s a mother’s obsession, a cultural phenomenon, and sometimes, a little too close for comfort. Tune in, if you dare.
