The 90-year-old St Annes podcaster with a global audience

Feb 16,2020 8:08 am

A podcast by a 90-year-old woman is reaching listeners in 27 countries, despite originally only being meant for her family.

Great-grandmother Doreen Connolly has More Than 7,000 subscribers for her series called Mondays with Milly.

Doreen, from St Annes in Lancashire, uses a tablet to respond to questions from son-in-law Phill Cristofaro, who records them At Home in Australia.

Mr Christofaro said the podcast only started as a Covid lockdown project.

He Said the recent 66th episode was their " last planned one but we may do one-off episodes".

Mrs Connolly said she had been " amazed" by the reaction to the podcast.

" It was only meant for My Family , sometimes I think I have been a little indiscreet, " She Said .

" Sometimes My Family tell me 'you are not allowed to say that'.

" It really has been very good for me and has triggered many memories.

" My two sons have said 'Mum you never told me about some of these things'. "

In The First episode Mrs Connolly, who is originally from Manchester, recounted how her staunchly Conservative parents used their home in Moss Side as a campaign base for the area's Tory MP.

" My first memory is our front parlour filled with straw hats worn by his supporters, " She Said .

Her Life Stories take in Growing Up in The 1930S , World War Two and even running a pub in Wigan.

Mr Christofaro said: " For many years she has been telling these wonderful Stories - being One Step removed and not a Blood Relative I was enraptured by what She Said and I think the lockdown gave us time to Do Something .

" With her failing eyesight we will never get time to write a book but These Days you can do anything with a computer and a microphone.

" She has the sharpest memory and this gift for storytelling but not everybody has that. "
