“Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103

We thank Presenter, John Greene for advance information on this Sunday evening’s programme – 28th Nov. 2021 at 7pm on C103.  (S.R.)

Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 28th Nov.

It’s a musical edition of ‘Where the road takes me’ this Sunday evening as John Greene speaks to Daniel O’Donnell as we approach his 60th birthday.

From dealing with Covid-19 to lockdown in Donegal and ceasing his legendary ‘meet and greet’ after concerts.

The singer also speaks about losing long time friend Ronnie Kennedy to prostate Cancer.  Ronnie who was Daniels accordion player since the early days passed away in September.

How the death of his father at a young age robbed the O’Donnell family of a great parent and a young man of a full life, that he so wanted to live.

There’s talk about road tripping with Majella in the United States and how opinions of his poor driving capabilities are greatly exaggerated.

And of course reaching the age of sixty is up for discussion as we also hear tracks from the album ’60’ and how the songs from it were selected. [read more …] ““Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103″

“Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103

We thank Presenter, John Greene for advance information on this Sunday evening’s programme – 21st Nov. 2021 at 7pm on C103.  (S.R.)

Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 21st Nov.

With the anniversary of the Kilmichael Ambush just over a week away, John Greene looks at one of the unsung heroes, rarely discussed or mentioned at this time. 

Father Patrick O’Connell, Parish Priest of Enniskeane risked his priestly career and his life by riding out at night to hear the confessions of the Column the night before the ambush.

A few short days later, while accused of undermining his Bishop, he rode to Castletownkenneigh in the dead of night to bury the three members of the Column who lost their lives in the ambush. 

In part one of the programme we look at the background to the man and his actions and we discover a handwritten account by Michael O’Driscoll, who fought at Kilmichael.

In parts two and three, a new radio play entitled ‘The Valliant Fr. O’Connell’,  written by Lar McCarthy and directed by Donie Walsh, gets its first hearing.  [read more …] ““Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103″

Where The Road Takes Me – Sunday 14th Nov.

On this week’s edition of ‘Where the road takes me’, John Greene concludes the two part programme on the history of the Jeffers family of Bandon.

Author of ‘Jeffers of Bandon – A history’, Isla Jeffers speaks about the burning of Castle Bernard by the IRA in 1921.

From our archives, we get an as close as possible first hand account of what transpired at Castle Bernard from the nephew of the officer in charge of the IRA unit Seán Hales.

 And…….

Jeffers open Bandon’s first café in the 1950s and West Cork’s first Supermarket in 1960.  However, a little tweaking was necessary, when a sign which read ‘Please take a basket’, was taken literally by customers. [read more …] ““Where the Road Takes Me” at 7pm this Sunday on C103″
