Pat's Best Bits (Part 1)

With Mayo winning Sunday's All-Ireland final, here's a look back at some classic Shamerock clips. Big Pat and Grubs discuss the supposed 'curse', the final survivor from the 1951 team, and a few bonus Irish sport stories.Many congratulations to Mayo and - to all our listeners - may your God go with you.

What better way to celebrate this time of year than in the company of our dear departed friend, Big Pat? Here, we look back at an Irish accent 'expert', remember a rather tetchy priest in Ballyhooly, hear from a wonderful Zambian uncle, and turn our noses up at bad business language.Happy Christmas to all our listeners and, as Pat used to say, may your God go with you.

The second tribute episode and a festive treat. Here, we relive a couple of sporting kerfuffles, Pat's Pain Olympics from his schooldays, pronunciation-related embarrassment, and a goose causing Christmas mayhem in a Cork psychiatric hospital.Happy Christmas and may your God go with you.

A tribute to Big Pat where we revisit some of his Shamerock highlights.  Overheard Irish chat.  Weeing next to an Olympic champion.  Insulting a heavyweight boxer.  The 'Ace of Spades'. And a jolly little sing-song.May your God go with you.

Grubs and Big Pat take in Tripadvisor reviews of the Leprechaun Museum and discover the Sinn Féin souvenir shop.

Big Pat and Grubs do fighting talk, foreign accent syndrome (no laughing matter) and a Ballyhooly memorial service.  Sláinte, Paddy.

Big Pat and Grubs take Irish accent instruction from an unwitting contributor, discuss the all-Ireland Egg-Off, and get irritated by shit language in ads. Before being cut off like like the dead heads of a rosebush.

Big Pat and Grubs continue their Oirish accent education, pick 'n' mix their metaphors, and become scrum masters of their own destiny.

Big Pat and Grubs on genu-eye-ne Oirish accents, other people's embarrassing moments, and how kids writing jokes is...odd.
