Morning Coffee

This week we catch up with Mr Alan Wallace, owner of InstaBelfast, co-owner of OnlyJustMedia Summit  and hot yoga enthusiast!  We dive into the life of a Belfast marketeer, finding out what keeps him going and what reading he's recently got up to! Thank you so much to Alan for coming on, we loved our chat with who we will forever know as Mr. Belfast!

This week, we get to speak to Danni Simpson, an Australian-born artist and muralist, based in Belfast!  We have a great chat with her about her getting into art, her coffee fix and find out her Netflix recommendation! We hope you enjoy listening as much as we've enjoyed speaking to Danni!

This week we catch up with Peter Hunter, the Ulsterman Abroad!  Peter, originally from Glengormley, now lives and works in Japan as a teacher!  He also runs the travel blog http://www.ulstermanabroad.com !  This covers his travels and journeys both inside Japan and further abroad! We hope you enjoy!

This week we are so pleased to have Gareth Patterson, a local GP and owner and founder of the Northern Ireland Coffee Maps with us on the podcast to talk all things coffee in Northern Ireland plus a bit more!  We learn about what he thinks about the Coffee Scene in Northern Ireland, how it came about, what’s great about it and much more. We gain an insight into his thoughts on running a business, his struggles and finding rewards other than financial gains! Plus a little Zumba chat too! Thanks so much for coming on Gareth, we really appreciate it!

The king of Northern Ireland podcasts is with us this week to talk about ... anything!  We cover a lot of ground in this episode, from Carl Jung and the Hero's journey, to the Alchemist all the way to shoes for a goose and Scrubs!   The journey of this hero is fascinating, starting off on his path, a hater of all things Northern Ireland, but after his intrepid journey, slaying dragons (and getting burned by some .. his words, not ours!) he ended up, back in the land of Saints and Scholars!   From there, the love story grew until he became the unofficial (official in our eyes) voice of all things good about Our Wee Country!   Now thats enough talk, have a listen to the man himself!

This week, Worcester Warriors and former Ulster Rugby player Callum Black has a chat with us about his careers on and off the field!  His coffee shop, Guilt Trip Coffee and Donuts is a great spot to visit in Northern Ireland!

This week we have another very special guest!  Claire McLaughlin, Irish Rugby player and doctor in the Ulster Hospital is with us!  She tells us her story of how she got into rugby, her first World Cup experience and looking forward to the 2021 World Cup as well as much more!

This week we are speaking to Newly-Weds Orla & Andrew Haugh.  We get into their careers and issues they face during a pandemic as well as what they get up to in their free time and what Andrew had to do to get Orla's number!

Katharine Walker is back to talk to us about her new job, life in a Children's Hospital during the Covid-19 pandemic and much much more!

This week we speak to Chris Wallace, local business owner and major player in the NI Scrubs movement.  He has been working constantly since the COVID-19 crisis began to ensure health workers got the PPE and scrubs that they so desperately need!  This all came about because of his admiration for the care workers that have taken such good care of his son Charlie in his time of need!
