Irish Illustrated insider subscribers.

This is Drew Mentock, and I'm here to bring you the 14th episode from our biweekly podcast series in the feed, Irish Illustrated interviews.

Today, we're sharing my conversation with Patrick Creighton, a 1989 University of Nurtium graduate, an award-winning documentary filmmaker, whom Irish

fans likely know for his work directing Catholic versus convicts and Hesburg.

He's also in the midst of a new project on legendary Nortem football coach, Newt Rockney.

from 1952 until 1987, was inspired by his time on campus gathering footage and interviews for

Catholics versus Convicts. Here's my interview with Patrick. What's up, everyone? I'm here with Patrick Creeden,

as well as two documentaries Nortium

fans will likely know you for, Catholics v. Convix and Hesburg. Additionally, you're
