In this episode I ask Dad how he liked Dublin when he visited me recently. We talk about his first impressions of the city, the places he enjoyed, and his experience exploring it for the first time. The conversation then turns deeper when I ask about the similarities between him and his father. He reflects on traits like sharing, helping others, and valuing craftsmanship — qualities that were central to his father’s life and that he sees in himself today. We talk about the lessons his father passed down, how they shaped the way he approaches work, family, and relationships, and why certain values feel timeless. It’s a personal look at legacy, the bonds between generations, and the small but meaningful ways a parent influences who we become.
