This is "In their shoes" by Seanchoíche (an Irish Storytelling Platform). We're here to help people connect through power of shared storytelling. In our podcast, we invite two people to tell a story about their life. Instead of reading their story, they'll swap and read each others, as if it was their own. After both have finished we will dive into the real questions to be asked, feelings that came up and more moments that have maybe never been spoken about before. Listen to us on all available streaming services / wherever you usually listen to your podcasts.

Live at Dublin Fringe Festival: In Padraig and Fionnuala's Shoes
For our first ever live episode, recorded at Dublin Fringe Festival in Smock Alley Theatre, Gaff and Becks are joined by writer and cultural commentator Fionnuala Jay, and performer and playwright Padraig Wilson McCarthy.
Together, they explore the theme of childhood. They speak to the moments that make us, the people we carry with us and the stories we return to when we try to understand who we are. There’s laughter, honesty, and that special kind of nostalgia that only comes when a room full of people who together are brought back to their own memories through the guest's live conversations.

S2 Episode 6: In Laura Jardine Patterson and Rosabel Crean's Shoes
In this episode of In Their Shoes, guests Laura Jardine Patterson and Rosabel Crean join hosts Gaff and Becks to explore the theme of belonging.
Together they reflect on what it means to build a life far from where you’re from and why Beirut, a city often misunderstood or overlooked, has become a place they now call home. Through stories of community, work life and finding meaning in the everyday, they show us how belonging isn’t always about where you’re born.
