Six All-Irelands with Kilkenny, ten leinsters, All-Ireland winning captain, All-stars, Railway cups, met Muhamaad Ali and introduced him to hurling, growing up in old Ireland and what he makes of this years All-Ireland final. Inistioge is home, and what a place it is. Beyond beautiful. The future of the game is discussed, Eddie hopes there will be more hurling in the summer months. July All-Ireland finals are worth a rethink. His granddaughter Caoimhe Keher-Murtagh is playing Camogie with Kilkenny, proud grandfather and Eddie names his all-time greats. St Kieran's College, Team of the century, team of the Millennium, a volt of memories but most striking is this kind, considerate man. He's coming 85 soon, you certainly wouldn't think it. His memory is incredible. This podcast was an absolute delight and once of the nicest days we've worked on the GAA Social. The great Eddie Keher
