John Burke – In His Own Words…
Hosts & Guests
Carlo Cretaro
John Burke
Welcome to Episode 18 of the Voices Of Boyle Podcast!
In our latest episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with John Burke.
From his formative years growing up in Roosky, to his roles in the Boyle community, including his work at the post office, his service in the fire department, and his passion for painting, John’s journey is a testament to the diverse tapestry of life in this town.
Join me as we delve into John’s anecdotes and reflections on his upbringing, his contributions to Boyle, and his perspectives on the world.
Thanks to Brendan O’ Dowd for creating and recording the musical piece for the podcast.
BE A GUEST ON THE SHOW!
If you’ve a story about Boyle, we’d love to hear it. You don’t need to have done anything remarkable, and you don’t need to prepare a thing. We sit down, have a chat, and you talk about whatever you want to. It usually takes about an hour.
Thinking of someone else? A parent, a grandparent, a neighbour who remembers how it used to be? Tell us about them. Some of our best episodes started because a son or daughter got in touch. You can find us at [email protected].
