The Long and the Short of It By Tim McGarry, David Hume AudioBook Summary
Comedian Tim McGarry and Orangeman Dr David Hume investigate Irish history from different perspectives
‘We’re basically the Little and Large of Irish history’ Tim McGarry
Tim McGarry and Dr David Hume couldn’t be less alike. Tim’s a six-foot-four funnyman from Belfast, while David’s a vertically challenged historian from Ballycarry. But although they disagree about almost everything, they have a great rapport and a passionate interest in their native island – and in this fascinating series, they join forces for some good-natured, intelligent debate about Irish history, politics and culture.
Travelling the length and breadth of Éire and Northern Ireland, they visit important historical sites, gain new insights into pivotal stories and people, and interview a wide range of experts to give listeners the long and the short of it. Mixed in with the discussions are humorous sketches, bringing the history alive and providing light relief.
