Sean O'Reilly is a proud Cavan man who is a part time farmer and full time drummer. In this interesting chat, Sean tells me how one week he was living in Australia struggling to make ends meet and the following week he was touring Europe, playing huge festivals with a band. From rubbing shoulders with bands such as Earth, Wind & Fire to becoming Nathan Carters drummer, this is a really inspiring conversation.

This week I'm honored to sit down with a person who I have admired from a very early age and that man is Fr John Kenny. Growing up, we would have known John as "Fr Trendy" because he was driving sporty cars, he had a huge interest in adventure sports and he was also the dancing priest. John welcomed me into his home for a very open and honest conversation. We spoke about how the church has changed during his time, where he sees it going in the future and we had to talk about his love for cars.
