Brand new Maddie + Triggs episodes

The Maddie + Triggs podcast is back with seven brand new episodes of magical adventures set in the wonderful world of Higgledy-Piggledy. We'll follow our musical duo, Maddie + Triggs, as they tiptoe through the house in search of a midnight feast, fly through the sky on their Granny's magic bingo train, and visit McGinty's Farm to hear his world-famous animal orchestra.

These episodes see the return of 7-year old Bonnie O'Meara in the lead role, and also features the acting debut of 11-year old Alannah Moriarty, another bright young talent who the producers cast through the NCBI. The series finale also features a guest performance from Bonnie's dad, Garry O'Meara, who takes on the musical persona of Higgledy-Piggledy's most talented banjo-pickin' chicken! 

Series creators Colm Tobin and Aidan O'Donovan want to thank all the cast, crew and extended team who helped make the Maddie + Triggs podcast. In particular we want to say a huge thank you to Neil Conlan and Riona Hartman for their incredible work on editing, sound design, music production, and song writing and arranging. We really hope that we get to make more episodes again!

Turnip + Duck are currently developing a TV series of the show and are working closely with the NCBI and other stakeholders representing the vision impaired community. Development of the TV show is supported by RTÉjr and Screen Ireland, and Turnip + Duck plans to pitch the show at kids TV markets later this year with a view to getting the TV series into production in 2023. 

You can listen to all 15 episodes of the Maddie + Triggs podcast on RTÉjr Radio, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

The Maddie + Triggs podcast was produced by Turnip + Duck for RTÉjr Radio, and was funded by the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland with the television license fee.
