We were in the presence of broadcasting greatness on our Drive For Five Special as Micheal O'Muircheartaigh joined us in studio.
The Kerry native has witnessed a host of All-Ireland finals as a commentator and keen observer. And Sunday will be no different as his county try to stop Dublin achieving a historic fifth title in a row.
Ex-Ireland soccer international Gary Breen also dropped in during the chat and he spoke of his own strong connections to Kerry.
He also revealed that there was an All-Ireland winner in his family.
"I initially thought there were two," said Breen.
"But it was my great-grandfather Paddy Breen who would've played in the 1913 Croke Park Memorial game, but then got the All-Ireland medal in 1914.
"He also played for Tottenham during that time. But there's a bigger link in terms of why I'm so invested into Kerry.
Iconic Kerrymen
"Of course, my family and great-grandfather winning that medal. But his brother-in-law was Dr Eamonn O'Sullivan. We're talking about iconic Kerry men here in terms of the fact that he won All-Ireland titles over five decades.
"It's unprecedented and incredible to look back on it. That was something, as a youngster, I was desperate to know about Kerry football. I was so invested and so proud of it. I just look back with great memories."
O'Muircheartaigh added that Paddy Breen's "name lives on". He also brought up another code with past connections to Kerry.
"And there was a Breen connected in some way with the first All-Ireland they won after 1900. The first Kerry team that appeared in an All-Ireland final, they were actually rugby players," he said.
"Kerry was over-run with rugby teams in the early days of the GAA. There was a rugby club even in Valentia Island. Every town in Kerry and then the GAA was founded and Gaelic football was a sport that was invented at that time.
"Three young teachers arrived down in Killorglin and Dr Eamonn's father was the rugby captain of the winning team in Kerry that time."
