    #100 How to turn 100
    Dec 16 2025
    Bhuel a chairde, tá an t-eagrán seo lán de cheiliúradh – ní hamháin gurb í an Nollaig í, ach mhair muid an céad! San eip seo , tá súil siar á caitheamh againn ar an aistear atá théis a bheith againn ó thús HTG go dtí an 100ú eip. Pléimid na cuimhneacháin is fearr, na cuimhneacháin is náirí, and some that are a healthy dose of both. We also develop trust issues from a bad batch of Christmas crackers... They don't always crack, mar a tharlaíonn sé. Cinnte, ba mhaith linn lua anseo go bhfuilimid ana-bhuíoch go deo díbhse, ár n-éisteoirí. Murach sibhse, ní bheimis ar an turas seo ar chor ar bith. So, settle in i gcomhair eagráin atá níos faide agus níos chaotic than usual – the prosecco is flowing, tá na hataí Nollag orainn, agus táimid ag FIZZEÁIL! Learn more about your ad choices.

  • #99 How to Gaeltacht le Pádraig Ó Sé

    #99 How to Gaeltacht le Pádraig Ó Sé
    Dec 9 2025
    Bhuel a chairde, táimid ana-excited mar gheall ar an eagrán seo, inar chuir Doireann 's Louise an ceoltóir, craoltóir 's carachtar Pádraig Ó Sé faoi agallamh thíos sa Daingean le linn Other Voices! Bhí féiniúlacht agus fiántas na nGaeltachtaí á bplé againn le Pádraig, chomh maith leis an cheol dar ndóigh. Labhramar faoinár pet peeves ó thaobh an cheoil 's an chultúir de (Fleadh Momagers, beware...) Agus le críoch a chur le cúrsaí, mheallamar ar fad amhrán as a chéile – fan go deireadh an agallaimh leis sin a chloisteáil. Ana-chomhrá, ana-shaibhreas, ana-aoi... Ó Neilí!

    #98 How to speak Hiberno-English le Colm O'Regan
    Dec 2 2025
    Do you know your gombeens from your quarehawks? Bhuel, tá Colm O'Regan anseo le cabhrú leat agus Béarla na hÉireann – nó Hiberno-English – á phlé againn. Labhraíonn Colm faoi na focail is ansa leis i mBéarla na hÉireann, na difríochtaí idir caint a pháistí agus a chuid cainte féin, agus na bealaí éagsúla a ndeirtear 'f*ck' sa Dáil. Is féidir níos mó a fháil amach faoin ábhar ina leabhar nua, 'Gallivanting with Words: How the Irish Speak English'. Chomh maith leis sin, tá brú tágtha ar Dhoireann neart geansaithe agus scaifeanna a fháil roimh Other Voices, and Louise and Síomha weigh up the merits of a perineal massage vs a buccal massage – why not both?

An tseachtain seo labhraíomar le Miriam O'Callaghan, duine de na craoltóirí cursaí reatha is rathúla in Éirinn.

    #95 How to use AI as Gaeilge
    Nov 11 2025
    Seachtain na hEolaíochta atá ann and Doireann doesn't even know what STEM stands for! So this was a sorely needed ep.. An tseachtain seo labhraíomar le Abigail Walsh, atá ag obair leis an togra eStór, agus Liam Lonergan, atá ag obair le Abair.ie. Two ambitious and revolutionary projects linking Gaeilge & AI. We spoke to them about the need for more Irish language resources online, the mistakes AI makes as Gaeilge - and whether Gaeilge & AI are compatible? Science Week 2025 is taking place from the 9th – 16th November. From technology and Al to sustainability and health, science impacts the way we engage with the world around us and enhances our collective strengths then, today and tomorrow. So, this Science Week, let's explore where we were, where we are, and where science can take us. Téigh go scienceweek.ie to find out what's happening near you.

    #94 How to write a song le Ye Vagabonds
    Nov 4 2025
    Ah lads, nach iontach iad Diarmuid and Brían Mac Gloinn aka Ye Vagabonds. We were SO lucky to get a sit down chat with them during the Sounds from a Safe Harbour festival i gCorcaigh roinnt seachtainí ó shin. Phléamar tábhacht an cheoil, na héiníní is fearr linn and why it's important that every sibling has a talent. Fanaigí don taispeántas beo ag an deireadh. Freisin - cuirigí aithne ar Síomha Ní Rialacha. It goes without saying that we have the UTMOST respect for rúnaithe na tíre agus gur sheasamar leo le linn a gcuid stailce níos luaithe sa bhliain.
