For this extra special bonus-length live episode, I’m joined by Comedians and Actors Willa White and Eric Lalor. The lads sit down with me on stage at the fantastic Púca Festival in Trim, Co. Meath to talk about their very unique experiences with mental struggles, the power of friendship, life lessons and a home birth that went very very weird!
Willa White is living proof that you can come back from anything — with a bit of reflection, a lot of humour, and the kind of honesty that stops you in your tracks. He’s battled addiction, transformed his life, and now uses laughter and his award-winning acting chops— not just as punchlines, but as a path to healing. His hugely successful and powerful one man show the Examination has played in theatres across the world and, in recent times, he sold out both the 3Olympia Theatre and The Gaiety Theatre (the first comedian to do so in over 10 years), making him the first Irish man to play the venue since it was built back in 1939.
Eric is a multi award-winning comedian and his latest one man show, Lol’er By Nature was a sell out success at Dublin’s Liberty Hall Theatre. You also might know him as the loveable rogue Cathal Spillane from Fair City but off-screen and stage he’s one of the funniest, soundest, and most razor-sharp comedians in the country.
Check out one of Willa’s Work in Progress shows on the 18th & 19th June in the Axis Theatre in Ballymun, in the National Stadium in Dublin on Aug 2nd, or on Oct 1st in the TLT, Drogheda. Make sure you tune into the lads’ award-winning You Must Be Jokin’ podcast and follow @ericlalor and @willawhitecomedy on Instagram.
If you’re new to the series, why not take the time to go back and catch up on the wonderful interviews that you may have missed!

Join Me in Kilimanjaro!
Join me for the adventure of a lifetime next January 2024! I’ve teamed up with global leaders and all-round adventure legends, Earth’s Edge, to bring you a bucket list event like no other. 20 of us will venture to Tanzania to climb the world’s tallest free standing mountain and take in some of the most incredible sights and landscapes the beautiful continent of Africa has to offer. We’ll meditate together on the mountain, embracing this amazing opportunity to let go of the the things in our life we no longer need and set our trajectory for how we’d like to see our life unfold, all in the shadow of the immense Mount Kilimanjaro. You will challenge yourself, share the experience with other wonderful like-minded souls and see the world from a truly different and magical viewpoint. You don’t have to have any mountaineering experience, just a sense of adventure, a willingness to step out of your comfort zone and a strong desire to shout “let’s do this!” 😄 Feeling like this adventure is calling you? Just click the button below for all the details on the trek and how to sign up!

I’ve been standing on comedy stages and talking to millions of people on the radio for 20 years. Over that time I’ve come to realise that a lot of our problems stem from taking ourselves and our lives too seriously. How about a solution to life’s challenges that can make you less anxious, more creative and so much happier?
No, it’s not beer – it’s meditation!
15 years ago, I was struggling. On the outside, everything looked fantastic. I had my own TV show, a hit radio show and my stand-up comedy career was taking off. On the inside, it was very different! I was anxious, stressed, not sleeping properly and lacking in self esteem and self belief. The only coping mechanism I had been taught to handle stress was alcohol so I was tucking into the pints to find comfort but that wasn’t really working. One panic attack and a drunken fall later, I knew something had to change.I had heard about meditation and decided to give it a shot. I soon realised it wasn’t the hippy, woo-woo, far out practice of crusty types who keep talking about humus. It was grounded in science and I didn’t have to shave my head or move to a draughty cave. It worked and was for everyone! I never looked back.
