Síomha Ní Ruairc will stick to her TG4 roots but is having a 'ball' on Ireland AM

She got most of the nation’s attention as one of the hosts of Grá ar an Trá in the summer. And now she is one of the weekend presenters on Ireland AM alongside Elaine Crowley and Martin King.Síomha Ní Ruairc, Louise Cantillon and Doireann Ní GhlacáinIt’s very fun, it’s my first introduction into this kind of world. I’m delighted to be here and this event is such a major milestone in the Irish fashion calendar.

You also launched your podcast, How to Gael, with do chairde Louise Cantillon and Doireann Ní Ghlacáin. We love listening, how has it been? The podcast has been going from strength to strength. We have a live show in April, which we did not think we would be doing at this early stage of the podcast! The reaction has been amazing, it’s been really positive. We’re really delighted with how it’s been received. People have been crying out for a bilingual, accessible podcast and we’re filling that gap in the market.The podcast is a stepping stone. Ideally, we want people to go on and listen to podcasts that are completely as Gaeilge.

Do you love being able to bridge the gap between Bearla agus Gaeilge? You got your start in TG4, which you have so much grá for. I wouldn’t be where I am today without TG4. It’s an amazing service that provides a completely Irish language channel for the Irish language community. It’s important that it shows that we are worth a whole channel! In saying that, I’m delighted that the door has been open to me since working on TG4. But it’s not the end of me working with TG4, I have more shows coming out. I’m looking forward to working with as many channels as I can.
