Never Have I Ever is the new podcast where Claire Byrne explores things she's never done by talking to people who have. And where better to begin than with a book? 

Everybody says they have a book in them. But what would happen if you actually sat down and wrote it? 

In episode one, Claire meets bestselling author and psychologist Katriona O'Sullivan, whose books Poor and Hungry have made her one of Ireland's most distinctive voices. 

Together, they explore what it really means to tell your story. How honest can you be about the people you love? Who gets to call themselves a writer? And why do so many of us feel that writing a book is something ‘other’ people do? 

Along the way, they talk about class, confidence, fear, motherhood... and stand-up comedy! 

And the big question: can Katriona persuade Claire to give writing a go?
