Kevin Hughes lost his sister Helen and brother Paul in two separate car accidents. He was on the pitch when Paul McGirr died representing Tyrone in an Ulster championship match. Cormac McAnallen was his captain and friend. It's a life of loss- but remarkably Kevin has found a way to survive, grow and cope. He was Man-of-the-match in the historic All-Ireland final of 2003 when Tyrone won their first All-Ireland.

This is a story of loss, resolve, laughter and pain. Kevin Hughes is one of the most remarkable people we've ever come across.

It's also 20 years since Tyrone won their first All-Ireland. Oisin & Kevin battled it out in Croke Park that September day, the podcast sparks some terrific memories (some bad ones for Oisin)
