Just love the Dubs. That's the Dublin I remember. They were such decent, inoffensive people with big hearts. So sad it is gone. It's unrecognisable now. Thank you for posting. Just lovely.
I have lived in London for 30 years. When I went to school for 3 years I passed the spot where Matt died twice each day,there was a cross carved where He fell. I ended up working with the Homeless afflicted to Drink and Drugs. I have not had a drink or smoked in years with the Help of this Holy Man, I Feel He should be Elevated to Sainthood. He should be the Saint for the Drink and Drug affected.
I remember those days the late ‘50s. I lived not too far from Leeson Street. I was aware of Matt and his reputation for holiness. He lived close to what I recall as Gamby Lane, Gamby Lane was known as a courting lane. I often thought then of the contrast between Matt, his lifestyle and holiness, and Gamby, the courting lane.
2024. I would hope to go the holy Matt Talbot for my specific need, but also hope he might help someone I love afflicted with a different addiction. Mother Mary pray for us. 🙏
Thank you so very much for this posting. It is amazing to hear all these recollections of the Venerable Matt Talbot. May he help our young people not to go the way of addiction
+Garrett Brown Nice post. I saw this once before, in 1992. The man talking at 39.20 is my grandad. He is holding his face because shortly before the programme was filmed he had suffered a mild stroke. My grandad died in Dec 1963, shortly after the programme was made. But the best thing for me, and my sister, is that we never met hom, nor did we ever hear his voice, we being born later in the 60s. So, for that alone, thanks for posting this Garret. You have made a lot of people happy.
Another memory is of the dance halls there. There was the Irish Club, mostly Irish dancing, and The Teachers a less cultured dance hall that attracted a different crowd.
My late cousin Michael McGregor who lived in the Liberties used to talk about Matt .... I'm sure he will soon be declared a saint not that there is any doubt that he already is .
@@tigerspuds Yes I do .The great Showband era no murders no robbery's people were safe in their homes no people obsessed with smart phones people would talk to you no abortion no same sex marriage yes I do remember it with fond memories

Currently watching this after my first matt talbot retreat this weekend. What an experience
Hi, what is a Matt Talbot retreat?

You are gourgeously right. I m Praying the pope will Elect him Saint patron of drug and alcol suffers..Also for you.
Are you willing to tell us how you recovered?
Math was a great man and Saint.
I agree , 6 months sober and clean here .
I was in town today and decided to visit the spot where matt died, the cross is gone unfortunately, but matt is still very well remembered

JFK visited Ireland on June 26-29 1963.
I wonder if this video was filmed before or after JFK's visit?
He left the little wealth he had To build a home for fools and mad and showed by one satiric touch no country needed it so much
The beautiful thing about the Irish is they talk the same regardless of how much alcohol they've had😁
Eye opening, all those stories of Irish white privilege.
Hi
Everyone has @ right to religious freedom including those for & against.2019 respect tolerance...

Cork Boy Well said!! It’s inhumane what those women and children went through. Should never be glamorized.

All good, but with all the poverty at his doorstep he throws a third of his wages away to the foreign missions.
