A team of students from Ennis, who recently competed at the VEX Robotics World Championship after winning the All-Ireland title, are now seeking support to continue their journey in robotics. Having designed, built, and programmed their competition robot from the ground up, the group say the experience highlighted their passion for engineering, coding, and teamwork. However, as they transition from primary school, they say they no longer have access to the school's robotics resources, equipment, or workspace. The team is now hoping to raise €2,500 to establish an independent setup that will allow them to continue building, learning, and competing in future VEX Robotics competitions. Team members; Maria Huriina, Antosh Róg and Hasan Jahangir joined Daragh Dolan on Thursday's Morning Focus.

Today's podcast had everything from social media confessions to neighbour wars and county rivalry chaos. We got chatting about the embarrassing things people do online that instantly make them cringe — and listeners had plenty of admissions. We also heard from a listener who needed to Get It Off Their Chest after discovering their neighbour was allegedly using their bin instead of their own… and denying the whole thing despite being caught in the act. Plus, with the Kerry vs Donegal clash around the corner, Oonagh decided it was time for an All-Ireland slagging match as county pride went into overdrive.
With Kerry vs Donegal set to battle it out in the All-Ireland qualifiers this weekend, Oonagh decided there was only one way to get ready — with a full county-vs-county roast-off. Proud Kerry woman Oonagh came armed and ready to defend the Kingdom, while Liam stepped up flying the flag for Donegal and gave as good as he got. What followed was a hilarious back-and-forth packed with county digs, rivalry, slagging and plenty of passion ahead of the big game. If you love GAA banter, county pride and a bit of harmless chaos, this one is not to be missed.
