It was the ideal job opportunity at the time, she was living in Greece for the summer and would work in a bar there but when they found out she was from Limerick it all came unstuck.
“I can see why people become obsessed with it, play their entire lives and it becomes part of their personality,” said O’Connell. However she ended up going on her travels and after she returned from Australia, despite her parents’ best efforts at getting her into teaching she decided she would be more suited to a life on the road.
O’Connell came into the position at Limerick’s Live 95FM a year after Jacqui Hurley had begun to weave her own path. The two good friends debuted on air together for the first time too. “I can’t explain how much fun it is to go into work with two people that you genuinely do feel like are your brothers,” said O’Connell.
One unfortunate miss-hit golf shot later and she delivered her call-out: “Hey Golf Ireland, want me?”
