Hey everybody and welcome to Loaf 2 GAA Global on the LOB GAA podcast. On Slice 17 we say thanks to the guys from Barcelona and travel west to the beautiful Philadelphia in the US of A!! Here I meet with Melissa, Brian and Tiarnan to find out all about Na Toraidhe Hurling Club in Philly. We chat all about the American take on hurling and camogie, local rivalries, being Junior 'C' US Champions, Tiarnan playing in Philly as a child, the pitch being called The Playground, Shania Twain music in the club, 2 hands on the hurl, Tiaran’s mother playing county, her influence on the club and in goal, and of course the important choices like Philly man Kevin Hart or Irish legend Chris O’Dowd, Pat Oliveri who created the Philly cheesesteak or Pat McDonagh who created Supermacs or the real one – Rocky Balboa or Katie Taylor!
