STARVIN' MARVIN'

Muireann played a clip on the show today of this gas little character, Dublin girl Harlow Rose aged 2, who went viral in a video telling her parents she was so hungry she was "leppin'".

It sparked Muireann to ask listeners to tell her their favourite Irish ways to say their hungry and the responses were hilarious...
