HeadStuff Podcast #5 – Olaf Tyaransen

By Alan Bennett

Well, I hope you appreciate this episode… because it was an absolute nightmare. Not due to Olaf, who is absolutely lovely and very obliging, but to TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES. I’m not even going to get into it, just know, that it was a hard time to get this to you. But we did it! We persevered, and it’s here and I hope you like it. Olaf Tyaransen is lovely and this is a really good conversation, I think.

The award-winning Olaf Tyaransen is one of Ireland’s leading journalists and a regular interviewer of some of the biggest names in showbiz. As Hot Press’ ‘Writer at Large’, he has faced off with the likes of U2, Lady Gaga, Larry Flynt, Dave Grohl and many, many more. Today the tables are turned as he sits down for the latest episode of The HeadStuff Podcast.
