DID YOU HEAR HIS MAMMY DIED? FAMILY, MEMORY, LOSS AND WHATEVER'S LEFT TO BE GAINED. I DON'T GET IT with Séamas O’Reilly

Hey, you came back! Or came by for the first time ever! Or totally got lost and meant to go to another show! I don't care how you got here, just got here if you can! You heard me, you grammar nerd! But now that you're here, why not just stay? "Settling's" the new "not settling" so just go with it.   Today, we are joined by the stunningly eloquent and frighteningly quick-witted, Séamas O'Reilly - father/husband/son/brother/journalist/human/interviewee/multi-hyphenate and illustrious author to chat about his memoir, Did Ye Hear Mammy Died?, which chronicles the story of his family - starting with the loss of his mother at age 5 and the almost inexplicable dedication, tenacity and resolve displayed by his father who stepped up to the plate and went on to raise ELEVEN children ON HIS OWN!!! How the fuck did he do this? I do not get it is an understatement.  (Read a book for once in your life! But really, you should read this one. Get it everywhere books are gotten or go to mammybook.com) For reasons you'll understand later, the O'Reilly 11 are: Sinead, Dara, Shane, Maeve, Orla, Mairead, Dearbhaile, Caoimhe, Séamas, Fionnuala and Conall. Yeah, exactly. Listen to the ep and @ me later.   And now, sit back, relax, or sit up and tighten up (it's your body, do what you want) and let's get into it: forgetting, remembering, love, loss, memories, and family. This one's for you: Daddy and Mammy, Daddy and Mommy and every other Father and Mother out there who try their very best, every single day.
