181: #181 | Last Orders - Parenting Is An Irregular Verb - Séamas Ó Reilly

Everybody is talking about Twitter sensation Séamas Ó Reilly and his hilarious yet moving memoir "Did You Hear Mammy Died?" And rightly so - it's a sensational telling of a remarkable story of a boy with ten siblings losing his mother far too young and being reared by one of the most memorable Irish Dads in the history of memoir. Can a movie be far behind?  Séamas didn't just appear out of nowhere, of course, and between his Rush Hour Crush skits, his infamous anti-capitalist satirical prank involving a chocolate spread and a professional encounter with a beloved ex-president, he is arguably the Cúchulainn of Irish Twitter.  In this week's episode, Séamas chats to Peadar about his book, his journey to becoming a writer… and his favourite Irish word.  --- Get Kirsten Shiel art prints here: https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/kirstenshiel/  --- Contact the show: whatsapp - [phone] twitter - @motherfocloir and @theirishfor email - [e-mail] --- Want to record your own podcast?  Check out our studios at https://thepodcaststudios.ie Or do it online at https://remotely.fm/?coddle  Learn more about your ad choices.
