Once again, Ronna's not here this week as she's either in the process of moving back to the US, or, as (Bryan) theorizes, desperately seeking doctors to correct a cosmetic surgery mishap. But luckily we've got a Carriage House favorite joining (Bryan): it's Gearóid Farrelly! Of course you know Gearóid as a comedian extraordinaire, but he also hosts a fabulous podcast called AGONY RANTS with Irish legend Niamh Kavanagh (winner of Eurovision '93, pardon me).
