  • Pat's Best Bits 3 - Christmas Special 2025
    Nov 28 2025

    What better way to celebrate this time of year than in the company of our dear departed friend, Big Pat? Here, we look back at an Irish accent 'expert', remember a rather tetchy priest in Ballyhooly, hear from a wonderful Zambian uncle, and turn our noses up at bad business language.

    Happy Christmas to all our listeners and, as Pat used to say, may your God go with you.
