In the first ever episode of 'If Taps Can Talk', Thomas ‘Crossy’ Crosse talks to Dan Lambert. Dan is the manager of Kneecap, the rap trio from West Belfast and Derry, best known for merging Irish and English in their politically-charged music. Dan is also the Chief Operating Officer of Bohemians Football Club, based in North Dublin - he has established the ‘Bohs’ club as a global brand, as well as one of Ireland’s oldest and most cherished football clubs.

Dan and Crossy talk over a few pints of Beamish in Cumiskeys in Broadstone in North Dublin to discuss Dan’s amazing career so far. Dan oversaw Kneecap enjoying the biggest year of their career to date -thrilling audiences at music festivals like Electric Picnic and Glastonbury. He also help develop their award-winning film Kneecap which scandalised the British government, while winning big prizes at both the IFTA and BAFTA awards. Dan also talks about the Bohemians’ commitment to social enterprise in Dublin and beyond, explaining his own thoughts on why Irish talent are currently enjoying such a cultural renaissance around the world.
