I can't see it being done in 15 minutes.
And that really is, again... And 11 minutes for the performance.
Yeah, and it's, you know, it's Madonna, whom obviously people of our generation will know Madonna.
Matt, that's good.
Shakira, who we kind of know.
And then K-pop boy band BTS, who obviously I don't know those people.
Few figures in Irish sport have cast as long a shadow as Roy Keane.
Now, to some, he's the embodiment of elite standards and uncompromising honesty.
To others, he represents something else, a kind of cultural hard edge that seeped far beyond football.
A new book argues that Keane's influence didn't just shape teams, but helped to shape modern Ireland itself.
We need to talk about Roy.
The keenification of modern Ireland is written by Dave Hannigan, contributor with the Irish Times and based in New York.
And he joins me now on the line.
Dave, good morning and welcome.
Good morning, Pat.
Now, let's talk about your title, first of all, and that word, the keenification of modern Ireland.
What do you mean by that?
I guess what I was trying to capture with that word and that kind of quirky title was how he has been the national obsession, the national argument, if you like, for nearly four decades now.
We've been obsessed with Keane in one way or another since 1990, since his days as a kind of a teenage footballer at Nottingham Forest, right up to the current phase of his life, the grey-bearded influencer phase that he inhabits right now.
Now, the intersections that you had with Roy Keane, I mean, you're in a very good place to write about him because your lives did cross many, many times.
