Kieran, Rory and Luke open with a discussion on abrupt changes in career direction and Kieran asks the lads if they had always wanted to be doing what they currently do. Kieran welcomes Niamh to the podcast to tell her story including how she made her own career pivot following a realisation in her early twenties that didn't want to continue going down the path she was on. Hear about how her life has been shaped by music since the age of five, how she trained to become one of Ireland's premiere violinists as well as an extremely accomplished pianist, and how she came to settle back in Sligo where she established the Sligo Academy of Music. Niamh performs three pieces of music on the violin throughout the podcast accompanied by Kieran on the piano. The first is a piece called 'Csárdás' by Italian composer Vittorio Monti. The piece, a rite of passage for aspiring violinists, holds a nostalgic place in Niamh's heart as she performed it on the The Late Late Toy Show as a twelve-year-old child. She follows this with a composition of her own called 'Glór Shligigh (The Glory of Sligo)' before finishing with an instrumental arrangement of 'Don't Leave Me This Way', a song recorded by various artists including Thelma Houston and the Communards. The lads then reflect on their chat with Niamh before addressing the fact that they may have ruffled the feathers of another Sligo-based podcasting team.
