Episode 82: "The Traitors Ireland" Special with Nick O' Loughlin and Patrick O'Mahony

This week on The Grounded Way Podcast, we sit down with two of Ireland’s very own contestants from the hit TV show The Traitors — Nick O’Loughlin and Patrick O’Mahony!

Nick and Pat chat with us about what life was really like inside "The Traitors" — from the mental challenges and mind games to the strategies and surprises that kept everyone guessing. They share some great behind-the-scenes stories, including what it was like being blindfolded and led in silence to the set.

We also get to know the lads beyond the show. Pat talks about his journey into the casino world of Las Vegas, while Nick shares a bit about his career in real estate . Together, they reflect on how being on national TV can change your perspective — on yourself and how others see you.

This one’s full of laughs, insight, and some brilliant storytelling from two great guys. We had a blast recording it, and we think you’ll love listening just as much!

Episode 81: From FM104 to Opinions Matter - Jeremy Dixon's Radio Journey

This week on The Grounded Way Podcast, we’re joined by Irish radio legend Jeremy Dixon.

Jeremy co-hosted the iconic Phone Show alongside for 17 years before moving to , where he stayed for another 8 years. When the pandemic hit, the duo launched their own hugely successful podcast, Opinions Matter—now one of Ireland’s most listened-to shows.

In this episode, Jeremy takes us behind the mic to share stories from his career: the highs and lows of live radio, unforgettable moments with callers, and one life-changing experience where he helped talk a man down from a bridge—a call that still stays with him today.

We dive into his views on free speech, how radio needs to evolve, and why it’s so important to speak your mind—on air or off. Jeremy also gives us a peek into how he and Adrien create their weekly show, from brainstorming wild listener topics to transforming them into live radio magic.

On the lighter side, we debate the great glass vs. plastic bottle question, reminisce about ringing in the New Year with Jeremy as he DJed at The Martello in Bray (where you can still catch him every Saturday night), and wrap things up with a hilarious round of “What Would You Do?”

It was an absolute pleasure having Jeremy on the show—lots of laughs, plenty of insights, and some brilliant stories along the way. Be sure to check out his podcast with Adrien Kennedy,

Episode 80: From Third Class to the Presidency : Ireland's Big Questions

In this week’s episode, Nathan makes his return to the show and takes us along on his journey abroad — from working in Zante, Greece, to exploring the streets of Athens, and experiencing unforgettable adventures in Egypt.

Back home, the focus shifts to Ireland’s political landscape, where the government has hand-picked just three candidates for the next presidential election. We ask the tough question: is democracy in Ireland still alive and well?

We also dive into the controversial changes to s*x education, with Minister for Education Helen McEntee moving lessons from sixth class down to third class. This sparks a passionate debate as we share our thoughts, concerns, and what we’d do if we were parents faced with this shift — with most of us strongly opposing the move.

From picturing ourselves at the pyramids through Nathan’s travel stories to grounding ourselves in the political and social challenges at home, this episode is packed with adventure, strong opinions, and lively debate.

We really enjoyed this episode and reminded us what it was like when we first started having Nath back on the show. Tune in by following the link in our bio or the link below:

Episode 79: Blood, Politics and the Battle for Free Speech

In this week’s episode, we sit down to reflect on some of the serious events that have taken place over the past two months. We catch up after Richie’s time away in Edinburgh and share our thoughts on the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, as well as the brutal murder of Iryna Zarutska, a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee who was tragically stabbed on a train in Charlotte, North Carolina. Our discussion also turns to gun laws in the United States and who we believe should — and shouldn’t — have access to fi****ms.

We touch on Jimmy Kimmel’s recent cancellation over his expressed opinions, raising wider questions about freedom of speech in the U.S. and how similar restrictions have appeared in the U.K. over online comments. We also share our thoughts on the Prime Minister while exploring what free speech should mean in practice. To help listeners better understand the current climate, we compare left- and right-wing movements in Ireland and outline the differences between the two.

This is an episode we felt needed to be recorded — a chance to express our views at a time when the world feels more unsettled than we’ve ever seen it. We hope you enjoy listening, and we’d love to hear your own thoughts on these issues.

Episode 78: George Hutton on Touring Canada, Joining The Celtic Tenors & Working with Hugh Jackman

In this week's episode, Conor sits down with returning guest George Hutton, who has had an incredibly busy and exciting year since his last appearance on the show. George has collaborated with actor Hugh Jackman, become a member of the world-renowned Celtic Tenors, toured across Canada while working on a brand-new album, and even stepped into the film industry—writing and starring in his own short film Scáth, which is now making waves on the festival circuit.

In this conversation, George opens up about his experiences in Canada, the journey that led him to join the Celtic Tenors, and what it’s like performing as part of an ensemble compared to being a soloist. He also reflects on his time working alongside Hugh Jackman, shares his ambitions for the future, and discusses the importance of surrounding oneself with the right people to grow both personally and professionally.

The discussion also explores wider topics, including Ireland’s complex relationship with alcohol, the impact it has on society, and the challenges we face as a nation. George gives his perspective on the controversial debate around whether flying the Irish flag can be considered racist—a conversation that naturally branches into a broader reflection on racism and its continued presence in today’s world.

To round things off, Conor introduces a new segment designed to uncover the real George Hutton through a series of fun and thought-provoking questions—leading to plenty of laughs along the way.

Episode 76: Nature, Nourishment and the Wisdom of David Flynn

In this week’s episode, we have the absolute joy of sitting down with the wonderful David Flynn — identical twin, co-founder of The Happy Pear , and a man filled with passion, purpose, and soul.

Together, we explore the world of entrepreneurship through the lens of Dave’s twenty years in business. He shares insights into the essential role of nature in our lives and how he and his brother brought this vision to life by launching their own farm four years ago. From the connection between our food systems and the soil beneath our feet, to the importance of biodiversity, organic produce, and the regeneration of the land, Dave offers a profound perspective on how deeply intertwined nature and nourishment truly are.

Dave also opens up about the companies that inspire him—those working with a more sustainable, people-and-planet-first mindset rather than a purely capitalistic one. With honesty and openness, he reflects on life, shares his personal coping strategies for staying balanced in a busy world, and gives us a glimpse into the practices that keep him grounded and aligned.

And of course, it’s not all serious! We round off the conversation with a few lighthearted (and hilarious) questions from our “What Would You Do” segment.

This was a rich, heartfelt, and inspiring conversation—full of wisdom, laughter, and moments that will leave you reflecting long after it ends. We loved recording it, and we’re sure you’ll love listening just as much.

Episode 72: College, Passports & Ignoring The Noise

In this week’s episode, we dive into a thought-provoking conversation about whether college is truly necessary. Is it a smart investment or just a massive money grab? We compare the college experience in Ireland versus the U.S. — from costs to opportunities — and ask whether it sets you up for success or leads you down the wrong path.

We also explore the pros and cons of solo travel, with Con sharing his recent adventure in Barcelona and the valuable lessons he picked up along the way.

Plus, we talk about the importance of staying focused on your own path and learning how to block out the noise of other people’s opinions — and the surprising freedom that comes with it.

And we’re excited to introduce a brand new segment: "What Would You Do?" It’s a mix of hilarious and thought-provoking scenarios designed to get us (and you!) thinking outside the box.

Buckle up and tune in — it’s going to be an entertaining ride!
