Description

I am obsessed with US politics. Not only is it full of drama and fascinating characters, but the results of this upcoming election could have a real, tangible impact on Ireland. So I wanted to get stuck into all things election-related with one of Ireland’s best-known experts on this subject.

Larry Donnelly was born in Boston into an Irish-American family steeped in politics – most notably, his uncle Congressman Brian Donnelly, introduced the “Donnelly visa” enabling more Irish people to legally emigrate to the United States. Just over 20-years ago, after a short trip to Ireland, Larry knew that he wanted to move back to the family’s ancestral home and he now lives in Co Galway, and lecturers in NUIG.

In this episode of The Mario Rosenstock Podcast Larry talks about growing up in one of America’s most Irish-American cities, the moment that he knew he wanted to move ‘home’ to Ireland, how America (and Ireland) has changed in his 20+years in Galway, and why the Trump/Harris election is so hard to call.

COMEDY – There’s a lot of excitement about Larry’s appearance and The Mario Rosenstock Hotline has been hopping! Check out the voicemails from Matt Cooper, President Higgins, Donald J Trump, and Joe Biden!
