Voices of Boyle
Finally, after years of talking about bringing a podcast to Boyle, we’re live! This podcast is our way of documenting stories about Boyle and its people.So what motivated us to take this big leap into the unknown (it’s our first time recording audio and doing interviews!)? We were lucky enough to spend 7+ years travelling and, like the majority of people that live abroad, we came back to Boyle with a greater appreciation for our hometown, its people and its history.We love the idea of creating a space on the internet where people from all over the world can tune in to listen to stories about Boyle. Each show will feature a different guest and we hope to cover lots of topics ranging from the old fair days to current events that are happening in the town.

Ep 40---
A very special welcome to episode 40, which also happens to fall on St. Patrick's Day.
St. Patrick's Day has also been a very important day for our guest for this week's episode, Bernie Carty!
Many of you will undoubtedly know Bernie and will also be familiar with his various involvements over the years, from the restoration of the Elphin Windmill to participating in various St. Patrick's Day parades both across Ireland and even in New York.
His story is a fascinating one and gives us a vivid glimpse into life in Ireland back in those days.
I would also like to thank Tony Conboy, as he arranged this episode with Bernie and I was delighted to also have Tony as a guest co-host for this episode.
We hope you enjoy the episode.
