Description

Our latest guest is Vincent Hogan, who recently stepped away from his role as Chief Spotswriter with the Irish Independent.

We chat about some of the outstanding memories and stories from his career so far, and how difficult it has been to deal with declining access to GAA players. Vincent takes us on a tour through the glory days in that respect, including when he sat in the dugout alongside Babs Keating for an All-Ireland hurling final.

Vincent also reflects on the experience of writing Paul McGrath’s autobiography, taking us into the challenges and the emotions of writing one of the greatest-ever Irish sports books.

We also talk about his rallying days with Michael Lyster and his days working with Richard Keys in London.
