About this listen

 In this week's episode Jason tells Kevin the story of Michael Flatley, having just read his autobiography. Flatley is probably best known for his stage show Lord of the Dance, and his time with Riverdance, but here we talk more about his childhood and his time before world wide fame. A construction worker, a musician, a lover and a fighter, someone should make a film out of his life. Speaking of films, in 2022 he finally released his long awaited screen debut in the self-funded, self-starring, self-written, self-directed action/thriller/drama/love story, Blackbird. We'll be covering Blackbird in this week's Shite Talk Film Club over on Headstuff+, so sign up there if you haven't already to hear us and Ireland's go-to movie critic Brian Lloyd go through an instant classic.
