Leitrim Memory Meitheals - Vincie and J.J. Mulligan Part Two
Devilment & Daylight: Tales from Bunnybeg (Part 2)
The second instalment of this two-part conversation widens the lens as Vincie and J.J. Mulligan delve deeper into stories of family, neighbours, devilment and events in the local town of Mohill. We hear a lot more family history and of the long-standing traditions of the Eslin area, as they weave archaeology, memory and mischief together in their own unmistakable way.
Both men also reflect on the years they spent living and working in England, offering vivid contrasts between rural Leitrim and the busy cities they came to know. Their reflections balance humour with honesty, revealing how those experiences shaped them and deepened their appreciation of home.
Across both episodes, the Mulligan brothers bring listeners on a journey through heritage, hilarity and the heart of Eslin — preserving stories that deserve to be heard.
