Gerry 'The Monk' Hutch - The Interview (Part One)

In Part One of our three part interview with election candidate and veteran criminal Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch, we discuss the roots of the feud, coming face to face with Daniel Kinahan and the moment the gunmen came for him on the island of Lanzarote.

As Hutch formally becomes an election candidate, we talk through the turbulent years leading up to his trial for murder at the Special Criminal Court which ended last year when he was found not guilty.

You’ve gotta laugh, there’s the Kinahans cornered with nowhere to go in Dubai and all there top guys in prison for big sentences and the pending big sentences, and there’s the monk, not guilty of murder, doing podcasts and running for election. I’d say that’s karma

[NoelleOConnor-jvcn]

I love the respect Nicola shows him, regardless of his reputation, not like other journalists who are out to make themselves look like heros and being blatantly ignorant, well done Nicola, your lifes work is evident!

[ArkBenji]

I met him once in the course of my job. I had to send him away because he didn't have the right paperwork. He was a total gentleman about it.

Anyone else get a good laugh when he said about the "Garda wearing a raincoat in August in Lanzarote" 😂

Quote of the day " No, this is the safest pub in Lanzarote they've already been here"

Gerry is 10x more of a man than Daniel kinahan.

I’m an Englishman with a fascination with Irish crime over the last 20 years and I love The Monk, everything I’ve seen and read about him he does seem like an ordinary criminal if you know what I mean, I reckon I could sit and have a pint with him and like the bloke.
He obviously loves where he comes from and would have more passion for Ireland than any of these MPs

[Scottishoutlooker]

Never seen this channel before. My goodness this lady does an incredible job as an interviewer. 10/10. Can’t wait to see more. Great podcast too.

I am truly astonished that Gerry agreed to this interview and has been so open about events. Good luck to him and have the utmost sympathy for him as I recently lost my youngest brother. It has devastated me and my family immensely. Rest In Peace Phil Kennedy, you'll ALWAYS be my little brother.

[BulletCowboy]

Daniel K must be raging, the Monk is way too smart, I like him lol.

[JK-jzyn]

Gerry’s a likeable guy, I can see why people support him. I won’t be surprised if he does get in

[CrackWarrior]

Every interview ive seen with this man is gold. Im normally not a big fan of Nicola Tallant but this is some of her best work to date. Absolutely brilliant.

[pauly]

A Gentleman throughout. Very intelligent and 100% better than any of our politicians 🇮🇪

[Camerahide]

Nicola, Congratulations! what a scoop! Brilliant interview with Mr Hutch! I hope you guys get the recognition you deserve for this brilliant work!

[jimobrien]

Isn't it about time the people started listening to what this man has to say about corrupt Ireland? The guards won't certainly listen, nor the politicians, but even in this brief 47 minutes he's clearly spotlighting the serious perversion of justice at play the length and breath of this land. The who's and the how's need to be rooted out urgently

[sharpiesharp]

"I hear the grass growing over there"
What a legend 😂

[garyhost]

Wow just wow. An interview with the monk. He comes across as smart and well spoken. This interview will be a part of crime world history
