Hosts of the hit Irish podcast 'I'm Grand Mam' PJ Kirby and Kevin Twomey are set to release an adjacent book The I'm Grand Mamual, due for release in October.

The two Corkonians are behind one of Ireland's top podcasts, in which they sit down for a cup of tea each week and chat about their lives in London, as well as explore what it was like growing up gay in Ireland.

The podcast has just surpassed 101 episodes, and PJ and Kevin have rapidly developed a supportive fanbase - the Irish diaspora making up a big part of it.

The upcoming book is described as "a big-sisterly companion that proudly celebrates embracing yourself and the uniquely Irish mother-child relationship", and promises to feature the great humour and middling advice of the stellar podcast series.

PJ and Kevin made the announcement to fans on social media today, saying that they are "absolutely buzzing" for the book launch.

A book release is long overdue for PJ and Kevin, as the two have seen a range of success since beginning the podcast. Both have been featured in the Irish Times, the Irish Examiner, the Sunday Independent, Vogue and GCN, have performed sold-out shows across Ireland and the UK and even appeared on the Late Late Show.

The I’m Grand Mamual is set for release on October 12th, and is available to pre-order from Dubray, Easons and Bookstation.
