Hey there, ever wondered what it feels like to uproot your life and move to a completely different culture? How about the shock of realizing American college life isn’t all frat parties and football games, as movies would have you believe? Come join us on the Having the Craic podcast where we navigate the wild journey of an Irish college student, Caleb McDonnell, in Jonesboro, Arkansas, and discuss the stark contrast between expectation and reality.
Ever found yourself lost in translation, even when everyone around you is speaking English? That's exactly what we explore as we dive into the unique challenges of being mixed-race, the cultural differences between Arkansas, Ohio, and Ireland, and the intricacies of local slang and phrases. We also touch on the role of sports in small towns and the phenomenon of the expansive Irish diaspora.
Our episode takes an exciting turn as we share our personal experiences with college football, the red shirt rule, and the physical transition from high school to college sports. We also delve into Mike Ream's adventures in professional boxing and creating a personal training company, and Caleb's direction toward real estate. So, here's an invite to an episode that promises fascinating cross-cultural insights, spirited sports debates, and captivating personal tales, all while ‘Having the Craic’. Don't miss out!
