Eddie Jordan: A Life Less Ordinary
Sunday Jan 17, 2021
Sunday Jan 17, 2021
This week businessman, broadcast and motorsports legend Eddie Jordan joined Jarlath for a one of a kind conversation about his life, career and charity The Amber Foundation.
Eddie discusses the art of motivation, the key to spotting talent like Ayrton Senna and how he takes care of his mind and body these days. Eddie speaks about his dismay over this week’s report on mother and baby homes and his unpopular view that he was 'deserving' of the corporal punishment that he received while in a Christian Brothers school.
From being a 'real nasty bastard' in sealing negotiations to detailing the important work of his charity Amber, his role as a sort of spy in the Lewis Hamilton/Mercedes deal, who he believes to be the best driver of his era and much more, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
