An Introduction to the SHARP Old Hat podcast

This is my first ever attempt at a podcast or anything similar. I intend to publish content on a weekly basis and hope to learn the ropes as I go along. There is no particular scope to this, just presenting conversations with interesting people on anything we are in the mood to talk about whilst sitting in front of a microphone. Kinvara, Co. Galway is a place which seems to have been showered with characters and the amount of stories, tales and opinions appears inexhaustible. I've set out to explore this marvelous place which I have made my home by talking to those interesting people around me, yet, I will of course talk to anyone from anywhere about anything.  Let's just see how this goes...
