174. Bloomsday Special: Croke Park Skyline Tour
23 June 2025
About This Episode
Episode 174 is a marriage of two of Ireland’s cultural icons: James Joyce
and Croke Park. Recorded on Bloomsday 2025, Fender speaks with Croke Park’s
Gerry McGarry and Joycean tour guides Jerome Corby and Sinéad Murphy - from
the rooftop of Ireland’s most famous stadium.
Bloomsday, celebrated on June 16th each year, marks the events of Joyce’s
novel Ulysses, all of which unfold over the course of a single day in 1904.
Special thanks to all the other contributors and to all at Croke Park for
making this episode happen.
