Summary
Singer Gearoid McCarthy has taken social media by storm in recent years and now has over 700k followers. On St Patrick’s Day, Gearoid pledged to still play his gig at Broderick’s n Newfoundland, in his father's memory after learning that he had passed away, but the series of events in the lead up to the gig that night will blow your mind. This was an extremely difficult conversation for Gearoid and I can't thank him enough for sharing his life journey to date. Big things await Gearoid McCarthy. This podcast is a tribute to the late great Thomas McCarthy. A true hero.
