How To Gael

HOW TO GAEL, your favourite bilingual threesome, are back for 2026 !

After a huge 2025 with sold out live shows across Ireland and the USA, summer festival appearances and much more , Doireann, Louise and Síomha are back every week for 2026.

Mar thriúr ban navigating their 30s, Doireann, Louise and Síomha are living, working and socialising as Gaeilge in a way that is suimiúil, spraíúil and just good craic. Forget gramadach agus obair bhaile, How To Gael is giving bilingual bottomless brunch, car chats with your cairde agus an stuff atá i do ghrúpa Whatsapp.

Besides being friends, TV presenters (TG4, RTÉ, Virgin Media) and women in their 30s, Doireann Ní Ghlacáin, Louise Cantillon and Síomha Ní Ruairc have another thing in common - they live their lives bilingually and as Gaeilge.

From dealing with criticism online to asking for a raise to calling on our ancestral wisdom, the cailíní will draw from their own personal experiences with a fun "how-to". They’ll navigate the problems most women have at this point in their lives. Come along on their weekly catch ups where current affairs, popular culture and just general gossip will also be á bplé. A bilingual format, How To Gael is your answer to bringing more Irish into your life, no matter your level.

This week on How to Gael, tá muid ag fiosrú saol suimiúil an “flow state”. That feeling when you’re completely absorbed in something and everything just clicks.

#134 How to be a clever clogs
How do you measure cliste? Is a great conversationalist clever? Is being an expert in a field admirable? An mbaineann clisteacht le cé mhéad eolais atá agat, nó leis na ceisteanna a chuireann tú? An bhfuil an duine is ciúine sa seomra níos cliste ná an duine a mbíonn rud le rá aige i gcónaí? Is there such a thing as physical intelligence, ach cén cineál clever clogs a thugann an ick duit?

#133 How to laugh

#120 How to be a villager
"Everyone wants a village, but nobody wants to be a villager." Seo a ndeirtear faoi dhaoine sa lá atá inniu ann - we all want that community who will support us in uair na práinne, but are we bothered inconveniencing ourselves to support someone else? San eip seo, we discuss how to be a villager - showing up for friends instead of cancelling (yes, fiú má tá tú beagáinín tuirseach!), inviting people to tag along for errands, agus roinnt eile. Ach ar dtús, tá catch-up againn a bhí ana-overdue. Insíonn Louise dúinn faoin celeb a chonaic sí san Iodáil, agus déanann Doireann reenactment ar an drunk dial a fuair sí ó Louise i ndiaidh di an iomarca Aperol Spritzes a ól. Easily done...

#119 How to control the skies
Rialtóirí aerthráchta, nó air traffic controllers - not many of us could explain what they do, ach bheimis i bponc ceart gan iad. We're joined sa stiúideo by Nicóla Ní Riada from AirNav Ireland agus í ag insint dúinn faoin day-to-day agus faoin traenáil le bheith i do rialtóir aerthráchta. Coinnigh súil ar ár socials le roinnt snippets a fheiceáil ón gcuairt a thug Doireann agus Síomha ar an bhfoireann in the AirNav tower! Besides all things air traffic, Doireann & Louise nearly come to blows mar gheall ar sheaicéad Adidas (of all things), agus insíonn Louise dúinn faoina haistear ealaíne go dtí seo.
