Let's Chat with a Native Irish Gaelic Speaker (#816)

In this episode we chat with a native Irish Gaelic Speaker - Eoin Ó Conchúir (Eoin O'Connor) from Ennis in County Clare. Eoin started a company called Bitesize Irish about 12 years ago and in this episode he shares more on his early childhood years in an Irish-speaking household, why he started a company to help people around the world learn and enjoy the Irish Gaelic language. We also chat about the importance of the Irish language and how it is used today.

Also, lots of great Irish music along the way - all selected by Eoin and sung in the Irish language! Enjoy!
