Irish Over Here is a new podcast about the Irish abroad - produced and hosted by Ben Kelly.The emigrant experience is well known to the Irish people, but how is it changing in the 21st century? People are going to different countries, succeeded in more diverse industries, and with the help of technology, they're staying better connected to family and friends back home in Ireland.The concept is simple: each episode will feature a chat with someone from Ireland living abroad about their life and work over there, and what they miss about home.So get the kettle on, and join us for the chat.
