  • 12 Days of War - Inside Tel Aviv with Paul Kearns
    Early in the morning on the 13th June 2025 the air raid sirens and the phone alerts came and you had to quickly move to a communal shelter with your partner and your two children. What thoughts go through your head when you hear the bombs overhead? What conversations do you have with other people sheltering? What do you tell your children? Does it make people think about what it must be like for people in Gaza as the bombs rain down on them and they have no shelters? How do you do this day after day when those sirens alert you once again to take cover? Now that the war with Iran “is over” how do you feel? What is the position with Gaza and has this changed the standing of Netanyahu? On today’s podcast I chat with Paul Kearns, urban planner, author and journalist about his experience living in Tel Aviv with his young family for the last 8 years, and wonder what is he still doing there? Let's hear what he has to say.   Podcast Production by Greg Canty Greg’s blog Greg on Twitter  Greg on LinkedIn Email Greg with feedback or suggested guests: [email protected]

  • Lisa Scarff - You never quite know where a horse drawn caravan will bring you
    I can’t imagine giving up my home and deciding to live in a horse drawn caravan. I can’t imagine moving to another country in that horse drawn caravan and buying some land on a rugged peninsula. I can’t imagine living in a teepee on that land through wet and damp winters with my infant children. On today’s podcast I chatted with Lisa Scarff who moved from Dorset to Sheep’s Head in 1993, and made a wonderful life for herself and her children. She speaks about her love of nature, making a life in West Cork, entrepreneurship, her meadows, butterflies, moths and turning 70!

  • Cracking the code of life with Fiona Burke of Little Red Skincare
    On today’s podcast I had the absolute pleasure of the company of Fiona Burke, the founder and owner of Little Red Skincare. A simple conversation about her very special business opened up into a number of areas I wasn’t at all expecting. She chatted about her early life as the daughter of the local policeman in Ennis, being bullied out of her job as an engineer by someone who felt that wasn’t the place for a woman, and this leading to an unplanned life of a successful entrepreneur selling cheese at various markets around Cork. The cheese business evolved into Little Red Skincare, an organically certified business that can be purchased online, in various stockists, or even better, in person from Fiona at Bantry, Skibbereen and Schull markets. She also chatted about some big personal changes that she has made recently, and how she has cracked the code on this thing we call life!  Enjoy the show  Podcast Production by Greg Canty Greg’s blog Greg on Twitter  Greg on LinkedIn Email Greg with feedback or suggested guests: [email protected]

  • Christy - A love letter to Cork
    After such a long wait we were finally in our seats to watch the premiere of my son’s first feature film, Christy at the prestigious Berlinaile International Film Festival. The speeches were made to open the festival and finally the lights went down and the film began. I wasn’t fully sure what to expect of the movie, and within minutes I found myself emotionally gripped by the story and throughout I laughed and I cried, I cheered on the main characters and hoped that things would work out for them, and at the very end, and I really don’t want to give anything away of the story, I wept and had to take a few moments to dry my eyes and gather myself. The movie was brilliant and moving, all of the talented actors and everyone involved waved the Irish and Knocknaheeney, Cork flag proudly and yes, my son did good, beyond good, brilliant. After the movie had finished and I dried my eyes, I chatted with Daithí O’Dronai who did the music score, to see how he enjoyed it, and how he went about creating such a beautiful sound backdrop throughout the film to match the story.  I then managed to catch Brendan, the man of the moment for a couple of words before chatting with some of the very talented cast; Diarmuid Nose, Sophia McNamara, Emma Willis and Ciaran Bermingham, a mix of established and brand new actors about their experience of working in the movie and some other projects they are involved in. At the after party I finally caught up with the extremely humble and down to earth, Daniel Power who played the main character Christy in the movie. This superstar in the making explained his journey from rapping to acting, and how easy that transition was for him and once again it shows the huge role that initiatives like the Kabin Studio can play in young people’s lives.   A few drinks later and it was time to get to bed - this wasn't your typical Valentine’s Day, but it was the day when an international audience fell in love with Christy, with Knocknaheeny and this special love letter to Cork city. Christy will be showing in cinemas this summer - you are in for a very special treat.   Podcast Production by Greg Canty Greg’s blog Greg on Twitter  Greg on LinkedIn Email Greg with feedback or suggested guests: [email protected]

  • Christy - When Knocknaheeny comes to Berlin!
    When your son has co-written and directed a full feature movie it’s a big deal. When this movie has been chosen to open the Generation section of the prestigious Berlin International Film Festival you start to get excited, and before you know it you are in Berlin on a snowy Valentines Day in a huge auditorium excitedly waiting to see the movie for the first time. The opening night was a sell out with 1,000 people gathering in the bar and lobby area before the doors opened for the theatre. I wanted to capture this special occasion so with a mixture of nerves and excitement I turned on the microphone and chatted with some of the stars of the movie and the producers to learn about their roles and to get a hint of what we were about to see on the big screen. First I spoke with two of the actors in the movie, Lewis Brophy and Ian Tabone. To learn more about the business side of the movie and the importance of the festival itself I spoke with producers Rory Gilmartin and Meridith Duff. And then just before his huge night began I managed to catch my son, Brendan Canty, to capture his  excitement on what must be one of the biggest professional moments of his life. While the cast and crew were here for the international premiere of Christy, what the huge crowd were not expecting was that Knocknaheeny from the Northside of Cork were here in force and before we filed into the theatre we were treated to a special flavour of Cork by the Kabin Crew. It’s time to take our seats and watch a movie! Christy will be on our big screens this summer..
