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. Subscribe to The Dressing Room for a bonus show every Tuesday.
