The Athenry Junction Podcast

by SonicHam Media

Every few weeks, Dylan, Padraig, and a gang of their twenty-something friends meet up and try to make sense of the world. Unfortunately, they haven't succeeded yet, but they thought it made for a good podcast.Born out of the fact most of our lives are spent on motorways, they thought their incongruous ramblings would make those long journeys the bit shorter. Never has the saying "Little knowledge is dangerous" been so true.
