Episode 17 - Diarmuid Lyng

Real Talks with Alan O'Mara

Diarmuid Lyng wore the Wexford jersey for a number of years but after captaining his county in 2009 and 2010, his relationship with the game turned sour. In search for answers about himself and his relationship with the game, Diarmuid went and travelled the world. On that journey, which included a stay in a Buddhist temple, he found some of the answers he was looking for but he was also left with even more questions. Big thanks to Diarmuid for his honesty as well as his fascinating insight into sport, life, identity, meditation and a whole lot more. This is a conversation that everyone will be able to take something from. Thanks for listening to all our podcasts so far. We live in a society where we are constantly told shorter is better and we get soundbites forced down our throats but it is truly humbling that over 50,000 times, someone has sat down to press play on one of these conversations.
