The Lovely Show

HeadStuff Podcasts

The Lovely Show is the podcast the world deserves right now. Hosted by two of Ireland’s most beloved comedians Justine Stafford and Kevin McGahern, The Lovely Show promises to be an ill-informed, rambling bed of nonsense to accompany you on a long drive or a particularly difficult load of laundry. Not suitable for children and barely appropriate for adults.
