About this episode

The episode previews the All-Ireland football final, discussing Kerry's pursuit of back-to-back titles and Mayo's hopes for their first win since 1951.

Tomás Ó Sé and Ciarán Whelan join Cathal Mullaney to look ahead to the biggest game in the calendar, the All-Ireland football final. The Kerry players are looking to deliver back to back titles for Jack O'Connor for the first time in his storied career with Kerry. They're favourites, but how are they dealing with that ahead of a potentially historic occasion. Mayo have been here before - 11 times since 1989 - but you have to go all the way back to 1951 for their last win. This relatively young team doesn't have all of that baggage, so can they be the ones to finally deliver for the green and red? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
