• Season 2, Episode 11: Professor Helen Heneghan

  An Appointment With… A podcast series where I get time with experts who are leaders in their field, and bring you with me. Season 2, Episode 11: Professor Helen Heneghan A serious deep-dive on all things to do with bariatric – or weight loss – surgery. There are so many questions, and so much that people are curious to learn about the topic of weight loss surgery that a swift Google or run through TikTok mightn’t have the best answers. Professor Helen Heneghan has been specialising in treating the disease of obesity since 2016, has co-authored over 60 publications in peer-reviewed journals and has a very empathetic, as well as expert approach to helping others live happier, healthier, fuller lives.  The conversation covers everything you may need to know on the topic of weight loss surgery, from the various forms, to pre and post advice, timelines, finance, and a bit of a wake-up call about the real cost (and implications) of travelling abroad for this, or any sort of medical procedure. Professor Heneghan is based in St Vincent’s Private Hospital Telephone +353 87 936 1330 Email: [email protected] This season we’re delighted to call Dylan our home.

• Season 2, Episode 10: John O’Regan; Part 2

  An Appointment With… A podcast series where I get time with experts who are notoriously busy, popular and difficult to tie down, and bring you with me. Season 2, Episode 10: John O’Regan; Part 2 Chatting with ultra-athlete John O’Regan always brings so much more than conversations about tempo and chub-rub. This is the second part of a two-parter which is a great conversation whatever step you’re about to take, even if it’s simply that terrifying first one away from the sofa. In this episode, we cover ground from the simple and straightforward, to the pretty out there – like how John is going to participate in the first race in space, slated for 2025. We also talk kit, wearable tech, The Dublin City Marathon (and all the hoo-ha around that), John’s expeditions with Mark Pollock… and his collaboration with visually impaired extreme adventure athlete Sinead Kane. There’s plenty here to inspire and digest, and hopefully you’ll be lacing up your trainers before you’ve had time to think much further.

• Season 2, Episode 9: John O’Regan; Part 1

  An Appointment With… A podcast series where I get time with experts who are notoriously busy, popular and difficult to tie down, and bring you with me. Season 2, Episode 9: John O’Regan; Part 1 My guests are usually from the worlds of health, beauty, hair, aesthetics and wellness, and this week we’ve sort of ‘massaged’ the criteria to stretch the wellness part to include fitness. Well, it is January afterall…   Ultra-athelete John O’Regan has participated in some of the toughest, longest, most challenging events in the world. I say running, but when you’re trying to cover 250 km over sand dunes, or some other crazy distance across the Antarctic, it’s a different kettle of fish.  John has so many incredible stories to tell of his experiences… of being self-sufficient for a week covering 250km in the dessert… of mind-bending 24-hour races where competitors just circle a 400-metre running track over and over and over… And yet, John has huge empathy and understanding on how to get running… how to complete that first 5k… how to build a passion with running and how to improve performance, literally from a standing start. So, if 2024 is the year you’re thinking of lacing up your trainers, or the year you’ve signed up for something that’s slightly terrifying you… you’ve come to the right place, to listen to the right man. This conversation was so good, and covered so much ground (bad pun not intended), myself and producer Fergh actually lost track of time. But rather than cut it short, we’ve decided to make it a two-parter. Both parts have plenty of stories and anecdotes from life – quite literally – in the extreme lane, as well as plenty of tips to get you up and moving, or moving faster. Whichever. Or both!  Follow John on Instagram @johnoregan777 And tune in to John’s fascinating podcast: No Finish Line Info on Parkrun Ireland: https://www.parkrun.ie/ And if you fancy signing up for anything in Ireland this year: https://www.runningcalendar.ie/calendar/2024/ This season we’re delighted to call Dylan hotel our home.

Season 2, Episode 8: Roy Leigh Roy is a man who’s star is very much on the ascent right now, hopping all around the world to work for Vogue, Chanel, Hermes… and then home to tend to brides and his crammed appointment column at his salon, 72 The Gallery in Dun Laoghaire.  He’s talented, he’s brave and he’s an incredible guy with the most lovely way about him… the sort of energy and person you really want to be around…  and I’d say all of these qualities, in equal parts explain why he’s now a regular, backstage at some of the biggest Fashion Week shows, both couture and ready-to-wear.
