Alvy Carragher ~ "Socrates Likes to talk philosophy at the taverna".
I came across Alvy Carragher in an interview on 'Second Captains' on Saturday the 30th August on RTE Radio. Goes out about 1pm. Presented by Eoin McDevitt and Ciarán Murphy it is a competition of sorts to find the greatest non sports person sports person and she was the guest. Always very interesting with any number of insights depending on who; this one was special because she was a sports person of some accomplishment being a former national champion. The guest the week before was none other than Michael D so she had some competition. Much more information about her if you go to Youtube or visit her own website given below. A winner of the Eavan Boland Poetry Award 2025 and an Irish Track and Field champion not to mention Louisiana she went down to 87 points. I could almost hear the ghost of the famous boxing coach Joe Jacobs on the microphone.
