Rip.ie

Parting Words, from Rip.ie, and proudly sponsored by An Post Insurance, is a podcast about the messages we leave behind. Through personal stories, music, and reflection, we explore how grief shapes us and how parting words can echo long after goodbye. Each episode invites a well-known guest (artist, broadcaster, athlete, thinker) to reflect on someone they’ve lost, share the soundtrack of their mourning, and imagine the final message they’d leave behind — with warmth, wit, and wisdom.
