No Other Craic?: Recent Episodes

Trish G & Marie S

Our/your first dose of craic!

Two thirty-somethings (Trish & Marie) serving up pop culture musings with our own Donegal/Mayo (i.e. rural Irish) POV.

Think of No Other Craic as a lighthearted, bite-sized magazine in your ears; bringing you our own brand of 'craic' to keep you company on your walk/journey!

From our own version of the TV guide (our latest streaming service show obsession) to 'what we've learned from TikTok' (we're Millennials after all and will be bringing you along for the learning curve!) our top tier recommendations ranging from skincare to life hacks, as well as shop local shout outs, a tonne of 90's nostalgia - and no doubt lots of endless weird and wonderful topics in between.

Life is chaotic (...and, so is this podcast!) No Other Craic has been created to bring a slice of lighthearted conversational escapism from us, to you!

We hope you enjoy -

Please connect and continue the craic over on our Instagram @nothercraic_pod

Thanks a million -

Trish & Marie
