In March, Paddy McBride lost his sister Marie to suicide. In his only sit down interview, Paddy reflects on the journey his family have travelled since the tragedy and the pragmatic steps to heal their lives. It's a stunning listen. Paddy is also one of the top players in Antrim. 12 years playing senior, under seven different mangement teams- the podcast explores the challenges the county faces. Recovering from broken fingers, he's back fit again and will play this weekend in the opening weekend of the Ulster championship against Armagh. Antrim are not expected to win- but Paddy does. The St John's player also explains his passion for Antrim, aspirations for the future and developing Gaelic Games within a big urban environment. There's laughs, craic and serious football talk. Another packed episode of the GAA social. It's a stunning listen and our appreciation to Paddy for being so honest.
