"One swallow does not a summer make, nor one fine day; similarly one day or brief time of happiness does not make a person entirely happy”. Does this apply to podcasts as well?

Virgil, The Pagan Poet Who Predicted The Birth of Christ

Finneran’s Wake – where the ART OF CONVERSATION lives. 

Here, no topic is untouchable, no idea inadmissible, and no one too heretical to be heard. 

As the great French essayist Montaigne once said, “To my taste, the most fruitful and natural exercise of our minds is CONVERSATION. I find the practice of it the most delightful activity in our lives”. 

It certainly is the most delightful activity in my life. I want it to be so in yours as well. 

To that end, I humbly welcome you to my channel.

Here, we'll exercise our minds together. Here, we'll practice this delightful activity as friends. We'll engage, now and forever, in the art--the highest and most human art--of conversation! 

With affection,
Daniel
