For Episode 90 of the Sport for Business Podcast, we headed to the heart of Government. We had a wide-ranging conversation with Thomas Byrne TD, Minister of State for Sport, Physical Education, and an Gaeltacht.
Recorded in his office within the labyrinthine corridors of Leinster House, nothing was off the table from his own entry into politics, getting to the matches of his children and his wife, the Government record on the funding of sport and its relationship with the sporting sector, especially the FAI and its new permanent CEO David Courell.
As a lifetime fan of Drogheda United, there are exciting times ahead with a Sports Direct FAI Cup Final to look forward to and the small matter of an upcoming election.
It is a peak behind the curtain of life in Government and the life of the Minister who is central to the funding and the future of sport in Ireland.Find out more about what we do day in day out at Sportforbusiness.com

Dr Fiona Chambers was perhaps the most uncomplicated interview I have ever done on stage, brimming with enthusiasm and ideas on subjects as diverse and yet related as digital nativism, values fluency and the superpower that can come from engaging with future generations on their terms.

In today's 82nd episode of the show, back after a short Olympic fuelled summer break, we are diving into the world of Formula One, and the position of an Irish company at its very highest level.
Colin Westcott-Pitt is the Global Chief Brand Officer at Glanbia Performance Nutrition, and his signature is only just dry on a deal with the McLaren F1 team.
