Comedian and actor Pat Shortt is teaming up with his daughter Faye for an online version of his hit podcast The Wellness Hour.

Faye, who has previously appeared in Killinaskully and is currently filming new Irish film drama A Sunken Place, will join her father in the show, playing new co-host Sile De Burca Ni Cormacain alongside her father's character, the Paaah.

Co-written by Pat and Faye, the show features new sketches from an array of new characters along with some visits from Pat’s personas over the years. A visual stream of the show takes place on February 20th for 24 hours only.

Set in The Wellness Hour studio, the Paaah and Sile host a daily miscellany of local affairs and social interest items including the practical advise of Dr. Fintan O' Brien, who advises viewers on how to perform small procedures on themselves at home.

The show will also feature The "Dear Sile" section, an agony aunt segment where both Sile and Paaah give the most meaningful advice to all sorts of conundrums, and The Acoustic Corner and The Arts Review, which bring the viewer on a cultural journey.

Tickets available from www.patshortt.com.
