Yesterday on the show, Jerry spoke to Deputy Danny Healy-Rae, who mentioned the landing of Papal Nuncio Archbishop Giovanni Battista Rinuccini at Kenmare in 1645. This was in the context of the Kerry TD’s request for more funding for Kenmare Pier. To find out more about Archbishop Rinuccini, Jerry spoke to Professor Tadhg Ó hAnnracháin, School of History, UCD, and author of Catholic Reformation in Ireland: The Mission of Rinuccini 1645-1649.
