He's one of Leitrim's most recognisable characters and here at Leitrim Daily we felt it was about time Tommy Moran had his own chat show as he approaches his 80th birthday.
A former school teacher, chairman of Connacht GAA, long serving secretary of Leitrim GAA, formerly editor and current chairman of The Leitrim Guardian and veteran of countless drama productions amongst many other interests we felt he was the perfect person to share stories of interesting people around the county.
We asked and he answered and starting today he's going to be inviting some of the people around the county to join him on this weekly show. You can follow the show on Youtube, Spotify or join our Facebook group to get the latest episodes direct to your phone, ipad or computer.
Tommy's first guests are current Leitrim Person of the Year award winners Peter McHugh and Andy McGovern. The pair were nominated for the prestigious honour as part of their work for the Leitrim Association of People with Disabilities (LAPWD) over the years.
Andy McGovern is a novelist who is the old living person with Motor Neurone Disease having been diagnosed with the disease in the 1970's. Peter McHugh suffered a stroke while working at his tractor on his farm and lost his left arm after falling and getting entangled with the tractor shaft. Both men have been hugely influential in the development of LAPWD.
