Listen "The Curse of Mayo County and Blind Debating"
Episode Synopsis
JK shares one of the longest-running curses in sport. In the 1950s, an Irish priest shouted at Gaelic Football’s Mayo County after interrupting a funeral profession.
Since then, more than 70 years of bad luck has followed Mayo and the county has lost the most All-Ireland Finals in Gaelic Football history. Hear how the curse was formed, the insane ways Mayo have lost All-Irelands and the long-awaited possibility of the curse being lifted. Meanwhile, Dave becomes a mediator as he puts Tom and JK head-to-head in a debate without any preparation.
