Beluga Lagoon x Young Hearts Run Free Podcast - Season 10 Eps 14

Come plunge yourself into an hour of unadulterated self-indulgence, this week we welcome non-runner Andrew O'Donnell tae the YHRF sofa for all the chat. Andrew, ya know, is the official Young Hearts Run Free Podcast songsmith. Better known as Beluga Lagoon his tunes have fuelled many a mile in the hills n glens. The soundtrack to our running adventures! We briskly take Andrew through an alternative line of questioning as we get filled in on his story, the origins to his musical project and find out what inspires his craft. At first, he seems bemused to have been asked on a running podcast, but as you know we're no normal running podcast and soon we get tore into it with Andrew happy tae come along for the ride. With his captivating nature Andrew catches the imagination regaling his tale, almost surprised by the furore (it's just what he likes dain after all) as his gigs and music explode in popularity. Our whistles are wetted with talk of his hotly anticipated new album (The Slug's Bunnet out 23.05.2024) and high doh levels are ramped up as Margo & Barry enter the fray! We touch on his filming projects and find out who else contributes to the success of Beluga Lagoon before getting back onto more familiar ground with talk of scran, dialect dictionary and an epic song choice! This uber-talented likeable lad loves the outdoors, loves his art and loves his country. With a knack for entrancing us with his story telling lyrics and melodic hooks Andrew's music inspires, it fits, it sets the scene perfectly to the backdrops we love tae explore. We were helluva excited to speak with Andrew, Scotland has something very special in Beluga Lagoon. Go get yir lugs aroond it!!
