Loose Joints Podcast #3: Emmet Kirwan
Loose Joints is new podcast hosted by Nialler9 and Sally Cinnamon talking to people about the music they love: old and new.
For number three we are joined by Emmet Kirwan, actor and writer. You might know him from his brilliant stage show Dublin Old School, Just Saying or most recently Thisispopbaby’s RIOT show at the Fringe.
Our musical selection is banger-heavy and our chat takes in losing your hearing in Ibiza, your ideal funeral songs, we agonise over our guilty pleasure choices and Emmet explains the appeal of Mark Morrison’s Get Horny, Sally explains the torrid appeal of “the mortify human saveloy that is Simply Red” and backbreakers.
Also available in Stitcher, Pocket Casts and TuneIn.
