The Irish Sun has unveiled a brand new six-part podcast called ‘This is your LOIfe’ which explores the rich and unpredictable history of The League of Ireland and its rise to prominence nationwide.
Narrated by The Irish Sun’s Neil O’Riordan, an award winning journalist who has covered sports for over two decades, the series will take a deep dive into the history of The League of Ireland, from modest beginnings on poor pitches with empty terraces to sold out matches both home and abroad.
Brought to you by the makers of the number one podcast ‘The Kinahans’, ‘The Making of a Detective’, and ‘The Stardust Tragedy’, This is your LOIfe will include a number of interviews with League of Ireland legends who have shaped the Irish football landscape, revisiting the moments that defined them, made their careers, and created the legacy of The League of Ireland.
Each episode involves an extensive interview with giants of the domestic game – Harry Kenny, Greg Costello, John McDonnell, Dave Barry, Gavin Dykes and Tony O’Connor – who are inextricably linked to some of the country’s biggest clubs: Shamrock Rovers, Shelbourne, St Patrick’s Athletic, Cork City, Sligo Rovers and Bohemians.
This is your LOIfe premiers on Thursday, 13th February with one episode released weekly and is available on all popular podcast platforms.
Neil O’Riordan, Chief Sports Writer at The Irish Sun and Host of This is your LOIfe, says: “The League of Ireland has an incredible story to tell, from crisis to catastrophe, the domestic game has endured countless challenges – but it’s here to stay and it’s thriving like never before.
It’s been a privilege to sit down with some of the game’s greatest legends and hear their personal tales – the ones that shaped their careers and the league itself. I hope listeners enjoy this behind the scenes look at Irish football history as much as we’ve enjoyed bringing it to life.”
