The Offload

Tommy Bowe and Donncha O’Callaghan

Join Irish Rugby legends Tommy Bowe and Donncha O'Callaghan every week for The Offload – a fresh, funny and unfiltered look at life on and off the pitch.


Packed with behind-the-scenes stories from their playing days, honest takes on the latest rugby headlines, and the kind of craic only two former teammates can share.


Your new go-to pod for sport, banter, and a healthy dose of complete and utter nonsense.


New show lands every Friday.


Video version is available on our YouTube channel.
