In today’s Podcast we are returning to our series looking at Leadership.

The Aer Lingus College Football Classic takes place each August at the Aviva Stadium and this year we are welcoming Notre Dame and Navy to Dublin Town

Today’s Podcast is all about the leadership it takes to bring an event like this together.

We are joined by Padraic O’Kane who you will hear from first and by John Anthony calling in from halfway across the continent of North America.

Over the next 30 minutes or so we will hear about the logistics of getting a game like this to market, the understanding of what it means to eat your own cooking, the impact of Covid and how they got through it, and the story behind the free beer and pizza from 2022.

The tickets for Saturday’s game are like gold dust but the gang will be back in 2024 and you really won’t want to miss it.
