Ep 83---
A lovely double episode this week as Carlo and Florence sit down with Colin, a Boyle native from Termon Road, and his partner Aethel, who grew up on a farm in Galway, spent ten years living across four American states, and eventually found her way to Boyle almost by accident.
Together they cover childhood memories of Boyle in the 1990s, from the Round Balls and Hares and Hounds to Ballinagare disco and the floodgates, Aethel's journey through Las Vegas, Utah, Alaska and California, Colin's bodybuilding competition in 2012 and what it actually takes to get on that stage, Lulu their Thai rescue dog, the return of the hot air balloons to Lough Key, and what both of them would put in a time capsule for Boyle. A warm, funny and wide-ranging conversation between two people who clearly love the town they call home.
