After a sensational run of sold out shows in 2023, Niall 'Bressie' Breslin is bringing his multi-award-winning ‘Where is My Mind?’ podcast on the road again in October 2024. Having led a colourful life thus far and being no stranger to a slap from the dark side, Bressie has made it his vocation to excavate and discover what it is that makes us humans dive, survive, recover and thrive in the head melty-chaos of the modern world.
