Louise McSharry

And we do all go through times and days that are really hard.

And I really think of all of you when I say that, that like I know I can only imagine the things that are going on in your lives right now.

And I really am so grateful that you choose to have this podcast be part of it, whether it's a great distraction for you or whether it's entertainment for you or whether it's something you can put on and listen to with someone else even maybe who's going through it.

But whatever purpose the podcast serves in your life, I'm just so glad to be a part of it.

And, you know, honestly, doing it is a great distraction for me.

So, yeah, that's all.

Just wanted to say I really appreciate you guys.

Thank you so much also to ACAST for having me on the network.

Thank you to Alice O'Brien, who is assistant producer.

And thank you so, so much for listening.

If the next couple of days do not treat you well, first of all, I'm so sorry to hear that.

But second of all, you're going to get through them.

We are going to put one foot in front of the other.

And we are going to keep going.

And we will be together again on Friday night.

Hello, my friend, and welcome to Catch Up with Louise McSharry.

This is the podcast where I do my best to keep you caught up with what is going on in the world, and that includes on a bank holiday Monday.

Yes, that's right.

It is May 4th, bank holiday, and here in Ireland, if you're listening abroad, which means that we get an extra day to the weekend, and it's pretty nice.

However, the news doesn't sleep, so myself and Carl, we're still on hand to take you through the week's stories.
