Nicky sits down with Ireland's legendary goalkeeper Shay Given for a powerful conversation about life on and off the pitch. From growing up in Donegal to standing between the posts in World Cups and European Championships, Shay opens up about loss, resilience, and the unbreakable bond with his late mother. He reflects on his Premier League career with Newcastle, Aston Villa, and Manchester City, the moment he nearly died after a horrific on-pitch injury, and the truth about what really happened in Saipan. Shay also shares personal stories of perseverance, playing through pain, and finding strength in family and faith.
