    Culture Café – Now in Podcast Format!

    Remember way back in days of yore when I used to have a radio show called Culture Café ? It was a music arts and culture show which started life on DCUfm. It later moved home to be broadcast on RTÉ 2XM and occasionally on RTÉ 2fm.

    Well, when I moved to London, I discovered pretty soon that it was near on impossible to do a weekly arts show for Ireland, while I was based in London. So at that point I opted to change to a music show, The London Ear, which has been running since September 2013.

    I miss chatting about arts and culture stuff though, so I’ve decided to relaunch Culture Café as a podcast. I’m three episodes in now and really please with how it is being received so far.

    Episode 1 featured the very awesome singer songwriter, Beth Nielsen Chapman. Episode 2 featured playwright and actor David Gilna. The current episode of Culture Café features Jass Foley, an extremely talented photographer and Director of Photographer.

    If you’re an artist or would like to be featured in Culture Café please get in touch hello @culturecafepodcast .com (Take out the gaps)

    I’d love to know if you have any comments or suggestions!

    Culture Café // Episode 2 // David Gilna

    For Episode 2 of Culturé Cafe, I wanted to speak to someone on the rise, someone who is working their way up, getting their name out there, getting places. That person is David Gilna, a London based Irish playwright, actor, producer and now author, and someone whose positivity knows no bounds.

    David’s Story

    David was kind enough to tell us about his latest play ‘My Bedsit Window’, being hit by lighting and how it led him to write a play ‘The Gift of Lightning’ which is is now being turned into a full length feature film by Blue Pip Productions.

    David is such a positive person, and he has written an ebook ‘50 Lightning Tips About The Entertainment Business – Change Your Life Today‘ which you can get on Amazon. Reading this and speaking to David, it’s not hard to see why he sometimes runs motivational events for the entertainment industry.

    David also speaks about the three projects he is currently working on. A fantastic young artist with such a fantastic outlook.

    I might be biased but it’s well worth a listen!
