ON THIS week's podcast, we look ahead to this weekend’s All-Ireland SHC final between Cork and Tipperary.

Joining us this week is Cork hurling legend Diarmuid ‘The Rock’ O’Sullivan to discuss the key talking points ahead of the big match.

O’Sullivan was full-back when Cork last won the Liam MacCarthy cup in 2005, the current crop are hoping to end a 20-year drought.

The county has been painted red this week as the build up for the final increases with flags all around, including in West Cork.

Cork did beat Tipperary 4-27 to 0-24 earlier in this year’s championship but most people are still expecting a tight game between two Munster powerhouses.

ON THIS week's podcast, we look back at what was a comprehensive All-Ireland SHC semi-final win for Cork over Dublin (7-26 to 2-21).

The Rebels dominated in the stands and on the pitch as an All-Ireland final against Tipperary takes place in on Sunday, July 20th.

Everything clicked for Pat Ryan’s side in Croke Park last time out but there is still a job to do.

We also chat to Rosaleen O’Brien from the Meela Moos to chat about the upcoming Festival of Football and Wellbeing Day in Supervalu Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

The Gaelic4Mothers and Others is an association with Sports Direct to host this event in aid of the Cork Mental Health Foundation.

Argideen Rangers were the only West Cork club to win a county football league title in what was a disappointing weekend for Carbery clubs in finals.

ON THIS week's podcast, as we look ahead to the All-Ireland SHC semi-final between Cork and Dublin, Shane Kingston chats to us.

eir hurling ambassador Kingston was on hand as eir announced a major milestone in its network transformation - Ireland’s No.1 5G Network Availability award for the fifth year in a row.

The main story here isn’t the hurling but indeed his connections with West Cork GAA club, and serial winners, Goleen.

The Douglas man was down at their victory dinner dance recently and he tells us how it came to be.

He and his Cork teammates are looking forward to their clash with Dublin this weekend (Saturday at 5pm in Croke Park) which will attract over 70,000 spectators.

Also on the show, we talk Cork camogie, Cork LGFA and the club scene as league finals are aplenty this weekend.

eir has reached a major milestone in its network transformation, Ireland's No.1 5G Network Availability award for the fifth year in a row. As the first operator to launch 5G at Croke Park in 2020, eir continues to enhance the matchday experience for fans and players alike. Known as the fastest field sport in the world, hurling is a fitting match for eir’s ultra-fast fibre and 5G networks – now bringing faster speeds, stronger connections, and better coverage to communities across Ireland.
