Solar and wind are now the cheapest power sources in history. But too many politicians would rather protect billionaires than help working families save on their bills. Real change starts when we stop allowing the ultra - rich to write our energy policy and run our government. Let's choose affordable, renewable power. Clean energy means lower costs, more freedom, and a planet that can actually breathe. Promote Celtic culture through music at http://celticmusicpodcast.com/.

IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC PODFEST Today's show is brought to you by Irish & Celtic Music PodFest. Our first ever festival will feature three Celtic bands, including yours truly, Marc Gunn. It's happening Sunday, March 8, 2026 at The Lost Druid Brewery in Avondale Estates, GA. Follow our event page on Facebook for more details. Or even better, Follow us for Free on our Patreon page. While you're there, you'll also find out about the Kickstarter we're launching for an album of the Best Celtic Music of 2025. Find out how You can get involved. ALBUM PINS ARE CHANGING THE WAY WE HEAR CELTIC MUSIC I got an email from Discmakers, my CD manufacturer, saying they were forced to raise their prices because of tariffs by our president. This is a tax on Americans. So if you love CDs, remember that the prices will go up. So please support those higher priced CDs. But there is an option for those who don't want to buy CDs and for those who want a better alternative for the environment. It's the Album Pin. Album Pins are lapel pins themed to a particular album. You get a digital download of the album. Then you can wear your album. All of my latest Album Pins are wood - burned and locally produced. This makes them better for the environment. And they are fun and fashionable. If you want to learn more about Album Pins, you can read more about them on my celtfather.Substack.com or just buy one at magerecords.com THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an dara lá de mhí Lúnasa. Is mise Eoin Ó Seachnasaigh.Tá sé fógartha ag gníomhaireacht de chuid na Náisiún Aontaithe go bhfuil 20,000 páiste tugtha isteach i Stráice Gaza le haghaidh cúram éigeandála agus iad ag fulaingt de bharr easpa bia. Tuairiscíodh freisin go bhfuil méadú suntasach ar an líon páistí áta ag fáil bháis agus an t-ocras ina chúis leis. Tá níos mó ná 1,000 Palaistíneach maraithe ag fórsaí Iosrael ó dheireadh mhí na Bealtaine nuair a bhí na híospartaigh ag iarraidh bia a fháil ag ionaid a bhí á reáchtáil ag Iosrael agus na Stáit Aontaithe. Fiú gan na hionsaithe, dar le breathnóirí, ní leor na hionaid chun dul i ngleic leis an ngorta áta le feiceáil ar an talamh. Muna gcuirtear uisce glan, bia ceart agus cúram leighis ar fáil, leanfaidh líon na marbh os cionn na 60,000 bás a tuairiscíodh cheana féin. Tá sé ráite ag tíortha lena n-áirítear Ceanada, an Fhrainc, an Astráil, an Nua-Shéalainn agus an Ríocht Aontaithe go bhfuil siad ag smaoineamh ar aitheantas oifigiúil a thabhairt don Pháilistín, chun brú a chur ar Iosrael stop a chur leis an gcogadh.Ag cruinniú speisialta an tseachtain seo, thug rialtais na hÉireann a cheadú do mhaoiniú úr seacht gcéad milliún chun a thuilleadh tithíocht shóisialta agus acmhainní a sholáthar. Is maoiniú breise é seo anuas ar an airgead a fograíodh le déanaí sa leagan nua den phlean forbartha náisiúnta. Chomh maith leis sin, chun an mheánaicme a shásamh, tá tús curtha ag an rialtais le proiseás comhairliúcháin faoi rialacha pleanála a bhaineann le tithe mórscála. Amach anseo, ní bheidh gá cead pleanála a fháil má chloíonn úinéirí le rialacháin áirithe, mar shampla, má tá gairdín mór go leor ann.Is chun na Ríochta atá Corn Sam Mhig Uighir ag dul i ndiaidh an bhua chuimsithigh a fuair Ciarraí in aghaidh Dhún na nGall i gCluiche Ceannais Peile na hÉireann. Bhí deich bpointe idir an dá fhoireann ag an bhfheadóg dheireanach, le cúl agus sé pointe is fiche scóráilte ag an Ríocht agus naoi bpointe déag scóráilte ag na fir ón iarthuaisceart. Mar a thuar go leor tráchtairí, bhí an tionchar ba láidre ag David Clifford, go háirithe sa chéad leath, nuair a d'aimsigh sé trí scor dhá phointe chun Ciarraí a chur i gceannas go compordach. Ach cé go raibh Clifford ina laoch, ní raibh sé ina aonar. Ba é a dheartháir Paudie a bhí ina cheannaire i lár na páirce agus threoraigh sé ionsaithe Chiarraí ar bhealach nárbh fhéidir le cosantóirí Dhún na nGall déileáil leis. In ainneoin taispeántas cróga ó Michael Murphy, a fuair ocht bpointe ar an lá, bhí lúth na ngéag caillte ag a fhoireann faoin am a scóráil Joe O'Connor an t-aon chúl den chluiche sa nóiméad deireanach. Tá naoi chraobh is tríocha buaite ag Ciarraí i stair an chomórtais anois.*gníomhaireacht - agencyag fulaingt de bharr easpa bia - suffering from starvationmaoiniú breise - extra fundingproiseás comhairliúcháin - consultation processlúth na ngéag - swiftness of limbs

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an seachtú lá de mhí an Mheithimh. Is mise Siubhán Nic Amhlaoibh.Tá an suíomh UNESCO Sceilg Mhichíl, a bhfuil clú agus cáil air mar shampla de lonnaíocht luath-chreidimh, le hathoscailt aríst inniu, i ndiaidh conspóid dlí maidir le ceadúnais bháid a ghlacann daoine anonn agus anall ón oileán. Bíonn an t-oileán, a bhí ina shuíomh scannánaíochta sna scannáin Star Wars, druidte i rith an gheimridh, idir mí Mheán Fómhair agus mí Aibreáin. Osclaíonn an suíomh aríst don tréimhse úr samhraidh gach bliain i lár mhí na Bealtaine, ach tháinig moill ar an oscailt i mbliana mar gheall ar an chonspóid seo, inar ghlac dhá chomhlacht nar éirigh leo i gcomórtas d'oibreoirí báid éileamh dlíthiúil chuig an ardchúirt. Agus an cás seo beo, cuireadh bac ar aon oibreoir báid seirbhís a chur ar fáil chuig an oileán. Dúirt an tAire Norma Moriarty go bhfuil faoiseamh le mothú sa phobal i ndiaidh an chinnidh seo.  “Níl aon áibhéil faoin tionchar a bhí ag an chinneadh seo ar an cheantar. Bhí sé ríthábhachtach gur athosclaíodh an suíomh. Is é an príomháit turasóireachta sa cheantar é agus bhí gnólachtaí ag fulaingt mar gheall ar a dhúnadh,” a dúirt sí.An tseachtain seo, chuir Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe Donald Trump cosc ar dhaoine ag taisteal ó thíortha eagsúla go dtí na Stáit Aontaithe. Chuir foireann an Tí Bháin síos ar an pholasaí seo mar “choscanna ciallmhara” a dhéanfadh Meiriceánaigh a chosaint ó eachtrannaigh chontúirteacha. Is é seo an dara huair a chuir an tUachtarán Trump cosc ar an taisteal. Agus é ina chéad téarma in 2017, chuir sé cosc ar an taisteal, agus tháinig éileamh dlíthiúil mar gheall air. Rinne an tUachtarán Biden é a aisghairm in 2021.  I measc na dtíortha a bhfuil tionchar ag an bheartas seo orthu ná an Afganastáin, Maenmar, Sead, Poblacht an Chongó, an Ghuine Mheánchiorclach, an Eiritré, Háítí, an Iaráin, an Libia, an tSomáil, an tSúdáin agus Éimin. Tá leathchosc tagtha ar thíortha eile mar chuid den bheartas seo, Tóga, Laos, Cúba agus Siarra Leon san áireamh. Shéan urlabhraí ón Teach Bhán gur beartas frith-Mhoslamach atá ann.Tá Mark Shields, imreoir CLG le Contae Ard Mhacha agus buaiteoir Chraobh na hÉireann anuraidh, i ndiaidh a thaithí ar theacht amach mar dhuine aerach a roinnt go poiblí i ndiaidh deich mbliana ag imirt leis an chontae. I bhfíseán a roinneadh ag ócáid Bhróid a d'eagraigh Cumann na nImreoirí Gaelacha, rinne sé cur síos ar an dúshlán a bhí roimhe teacht amach i dtimpeallacht CLG atá faoi thionchar na bhfear. Mar sin féin, luaigh sé fosta an t-athrú dearfach atá tagtha ar an chultúr, agus thug le fíos go bhfuil dearcadh laistigh de ghrúpa Ard Mhacha agus laistigh den CLG níos tuisceanaí ná mar a bhí blianta ó shin. Aithníonn Shields go bhfuil athrú tagtha ar an teanga agus ar an tacaíocht laistigh den ghrúpa, agus go bhfuil comhoibritheoirí ag seasamh an fhóid le daoine aeracha ar bhealach nach raibh siad ariamh roimhe seo. Agus a scéal féin á roinnt, tá sé ag súil go gcuideoidh sé le himreoirí eile—fir, mná nó daoine neamh-dhénartha— béim a leagan ar a gcultúir féin agus a bheith tacaithe agus sábháilte. Chomh maith leis sin, chuir Shields béim ar an tábhacht atá le daoine iontaofa, cosúil lena dheirfiúr agus lena pháirtí féin, chun comhráite pearsanta a dhéanamh. *Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Bhain an clár irise Barrscéalta Gradam Siamsaíochta ag Féile na Meán Cheilteach, i Newquay i gCorn na Breataine, tráthnóna inné. Ba do chlár a craoladh ó oileán Árainn Mhór i mí na Bealtaine anuraidh a bronnadh an gradam. Ba í Michelle Nic Grianna a láithrigh an clár agus ba é Dónall Mac Ruairí a léirigh an clár.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an t-aonú lá is tríocha de mhí na Bealtaine. Is mise Gwyneth Nic Aidicín Ní Loingsigh.Leanann an t-uafás sa Phalaistín agus brú ar rialtais an domhain ag fás gach lá chun smachtbhannaí a chur ar Iosrael. Níl aon bhia ná cúnamh ag dul isteach go Gaza fós. Tá plean sos cogaidh ó Stáit Aontaithe Mheiriceá faoi bhreithniú faoi láthair, den chéad uair ón sos cogaidh ar theip air i mí an Mhárta. Ghlac Iosraelleis an bplean agus tá freagra foirmiúil fós le teacht ó Hamas ach dúirt urlabhraí nach ngeallann an beart sos cogaidh buan ná go leor soláthar cúnaimh. Sa Ríocht Aontaithe scríobh 828 saineolaí dlí litir chuig an  bPríomh-Aire Keir Starmer ag lua go bhfuil cinedhíothú ag tarlú agus ag cur brú ar an rialtas úsáid abhaint as gach acmhainn atá ar fáil chun stop a chur leis. In Éirinn, cáineadh an rialtas as an easpa gníomh dleathúil i gcoinne Iosrael. Chuaigh bean as Gaillimh, Sophie Ní Choimín ar stailc ocrais le brú a chur orthu an Bille Críoch FaoiFhorghabháil a hachtú. I rith na seachtaine fuarthas ceadú sa Dáil cosc a chur ar iompórtáil ón Iosrael, ach baineann sé seo le táirgí amháin agus níl seirbhisí san áireamh, cé gurb iadsan a dhéanann an chuid is mó d'iomportáil ó Iosrael go hÉirinn.Tháinig rialú ón gCúirt um Thrádáil Idirnáisiúnta sna Stáit Aontaithe Dé Céadaoin, ina ndúradh go bhfuil an chuid is mó de na táillí atá an tUachtarán Trump ag achtú neamhdhleathach. Ghlac an Chúirt Achomhairc Fheidearálaigh le hiarracht ó riarachán Trump sos sealadach a chur ar an rialú seo, agusleanfaidh siad ag bailiú cánach don am seo. Tá sos curtha ar roinnt dualgas an riaracháin agus idirbheartaíocht trádála ar siúl, agus beidh an chéad éisteacht eile ar siúl ar an 5ú Meitheamh. Ceaptar go rachfaidh an cás go dtí an Chúirt Uachtarach. Dúirt Peter Navarro, comhairleoir trádála Trump, “fiú má chaillfimid (sa chúirt), déanfaimid iad (na táillí) i slí éígin eile.”Tá chuid den sráidbhaile Blatten san Eilvéis scriosta tar éis intitim oighearshrutha Dé Céadaoin. Bhi 300 duine ina gcónaí sa sráidbhaile agus tharla aslonnú ar an 19ú lá de mhí na Bealtaine, bunaithe ar rabhadh geolaí faoi chobhsaíocht an oighearshrutha. Tá duine amháin ar iarraidh agus tá an-chuid tithe scriosta. Tá tacaíocht ó rialtas na hEilvéise, ag cinntiú go mbeidh daoine in ann filleadh ar a mbaile, nó an ceantar ara laghad. Toradh athrú aeráide an tubaiste seo, agus teochtaí ag ardú tá na oighearshruthanna agus talamh síorshioctha sa cheantar ag leá. Dúradh sa tuarascáil is déanaí ar shláinte na oighearshruthanna san Eilvéis go mbeidh siad go léir imithe laistigh de chéad bliain, mura gcoimeádfar ardú teocht domhanda laistigh de 1.5 céim, sprioc atá caillte cheana féin, dar le saineolaithe.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an ceathrú lá fichead de mhí na Bealtaine. Is mise Eoin Ó Seachnasaigh.Tá gorta faoi lán seoil in Gaza. Tá sé fógartha ag ceannaire gnóthaí daonnúla na Náisiún Aontaithe, Stephen Fletcher, go bhféadfadh 14,000 páiste bás a fháil mura gcuirtear bia ar fáil dóibh láithreach. In ainneoin cáineadh forleathan ón bpobal idirnáisiúnta, níor cheadaigh Iosrael ach naoi leoraí cúnaimh isteach i nGaza, cé go bhfuil níos mó ná 2.3 milliún duine ocrach le beagnach trí mhí. I dteachtaireacht físe ar na meáin shóisialta, dúirt Príomh-aire Iosrael, Benjamin Netanyahu, go bhfuil Iosrael chun smacht a fháil ar Gaza ar fad. Mar gheall ar an ngéarchéim atá ag dul in olcas, cháin Príomh-aire na Ríochta Aontaithe, Keir Starmer, Iosrael agus é ag labhairt os comhair na parlaiminte níos luaithe sa tseachtain. Bíodh sin mar atá, sheachain sé úsáid a bhaint as na focail ‘glanadh eitneach' nó ‘cinedhíothú', agus níor gheall sé ach oiread go stopfadh sé ag díol arm le hIosrael.Tá fáilte curtha ag Gaeilgeoirí i dTuaisceart na hÉireann roimh an gcinneadh tuairim is 100 comhartha dhátheangacha a chur suas i gContae an Dúin agus i gContae Ard Mhacha. Cé go raibh polaiteoirí Aontachtacha ina choinne le sé bliana, tá sé deimhnithe anois ag an dá chomhairle contae go mbeidh na comharthaí le feiceáil go luath. Leanann sé seo le polasaí na gcomhairlí contae an Ghaeilge a chur chun cinn. Úsáidtear comharthaí dátheangacha cheana féin ar fhoirgnimh údaráis áitiúil sna ceantair seo. Tagann an scéal seo ag an am céanna go bhfuil mic léinn ag Ollscoil na Banríona agus Ollscoil Uladh ag éileamh comharthaí Gaeilge ar an gcampas.Tá painéal imreoirí roghnaithe ag bainisteoir fhoireann sacair ban na hÉireann, Carla Ward, don dá chluiche dheireanacha i Sraith na Náisiún. Imreofar an chéad chluiche in aghaidh na Tuirce thall in Iostanbúl an deireadh seachtaine seo chugainn, agus beidh siad ar ais sa bhaile an tseachtain dár gcionn in aghaidh na Slóivéine i gCorcaigh. Má tá seans ar bith acu críochnú ar bharr an ghrúpa, caithfidh siad an dá chluiche a bhuachaint. Tá Erin Healy, tosaí le Adelaide United san Astráil, ar an bpainéal den chéad uair riamh, chomh maith le Louise Quinn sula n-éireoidh sí as sacar gairmiúil go hiomlán. Go n-éirí go geal leis an mbeirt acu, agus leis an bhfoireann uilig.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an seachtú lá déag de mhí na Bealtaine. Is mise Alanna Ní Ghallachóir. Cuireadh breith ar neamhní tar éis fianaise nua ADN a léiriú, agus 38 bliain caite ag fear i ngéibheann i gcás dúnmharaithe mná. Fuarthas Peter Sullivan ciontach sa bhliain 1986  maidir le dúnmharú Diane Sindall, bean óg a ndearnadh tromionsaí gnéasach uirthi agus í ag siúl abhaile tar éis seal ag obair i mbeár. Dé réir ráiteas a léigh a dhlíodóir, dúirt an tUasal Ó Sullivan “níl fearg orm, nílim searbh”. Agus í ag labhairt i ndiaidh na héisteachta, dúirt deirfiúr Sullivan, Kim Smith, “nach raibh an bua ag éinne” agus chuir sí comhbhá in iúl do mhuintir Iníon Uí Sindall. Rinne Médecins San Frontières cáineadh ar Iosrael maidir le “tubaiste dhaonnúil d'aon ghnó” a chruthú agus chuir an carthanas iomardú ar Iosrael faoi chuidiú coinníollach ar easáitiú éigeantach na bPalaistíneach a chothú. “Tá muid inár bhfinnéithe, lom láithreach, ag cruthaíocht coinníollacha le deireadh a chur le saol na bPalaistíneach in Gaza,” a dhearbhaigh an charthúnacht leighis MSF. “Tá ifreann ar talamh cruthaithe in Gaza do na Palaistínigh.” Chuir Iosrael imshuí i bhfeidhm ar Gaza ar an 2 Márta nuair a theip ar chainteanna a bhí dírithe ar fad a chur le sos cogaidh agus Iosrael tar éis tús a chur le hionsaithe ar Gaza arís.  Mac léinn as Baile Átha Cliath a bhí i gceannas ar fhoireann ó Ollscoil Cambridge a fuair an bua i gceann de na comórtais is measúla agus ina bhfuil an iomaíocht is géire ar an teilifís. B'é Oscar Despard a bhí ina chaptaen ar fhoireann Choláiste Chríost in Cambridge, nuair a thug siad an lá leo i gcluiche ceannais University Challenge oíche Dé Luain seo a chuaigh thart. Dálta ilchumasach a bhí ann, de réir a iarphríomhoide, Edith Byrne, agus bhí sé go mór mór gnóthach i ndíospóireachtaí trí Ghaeilge, trí Bhéarla, agus trí Fhraincis, agus é ar meánscoil. Ba mhian a chroí é páirt a ghlacadh sa tráth na gceist cáiliúil, ar a mbíodh sé ag amharc lena mháthair le linn a óige.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

It is May which means a whole host of things from Bealtaine to the emergence of the Oak King and Holly King, the Green Man, Persephone, the May Queen and other figures associated with rebirth and fertility. So, in honour of these celebrations and folk figures, we turn to the Welsh Mabinogion, a collection of stories from the 12th-13th centuries. Our first story is the abduction of Creiddylad and our second is the creation of the flower queen, Blodeuwedd.  Show notes can be found on our website at: www.talesfromtheenchantedforest.com You can also find us on: Bluesky Mastodon Instagram   TikTok

Inniu an deichiú lá de mhí na Bealtaine. Is mise Oisín Mac Conamhna.Toghadh Robert Prevost mar Pápa Leo a Ceathair Déag, ag an gceathrú vóta de chomhthionóil na gcairdinéal sa Séipéal Sistíneach sa Róimh Déardaoin. Is eisean an dá chéad seachtó seachtú Pápa ó Pheadar. Is as Chicago dó, an chéad Phápa as na Stáit Aontaithe, agus chaith sé cuid mhór dá shaol i bPeiriú. Rinne an Pápa Proinsias easpag de in 2014, agus cairdinéal de in 2023. Nuair a fógraíodh é tar éis an toghcháin, labhair sé in Iodáilís, in Spáinnís, agus i Laidin. Tá leid i rogha a ainm phápaigh go mbeidh an ceartas sóisialta ina théama tábhachtach dá phápacht. Tá cáil ar an bPápa Leo deireanach, a Trí Déag, as a imlitir Rerum Novarum, a chuir cearta an lucht oibre go lárnach i dteagasc na heaglaise Rómánaí.Tá cluiche ceannais camógaíochta na Mumhan idir Corcaigh agus Port Láirge curtha siar ag Camógaíocht na Mumhan, mar tá an dá fhoireann ag diúltú scórtaí a chaitheamh. Bhi agóid eile faoin cheist an deireadh seachtaine seo caite, nuair a d'fheistigh foirne Bhaile Átha Cliath agus Chill Cheannaigh chun cluiche ag caitheamh brístí gearra, acht bhí orthu na bristí gearra a athrú go scórtaí sular cuireadh tús leis an gcluiche. An babhta seo tá na himreoirí uilig go soiléir nach nglacfaidh siad leis na scórtaí in aon chur. Beidh comhdháil speisialta ag an gCumann Camógaíochta ar an dara lá is fiche den mhí seo, chun riail na scórtaí éigeantacha a phlé.Bhuaigh Zhao Xintong craobh an domhain sa snúcar in Amharclann an Bhreogáin in Sheffield Dé Luain, an chéad bhuaiteoir ón tSín riamh. Bhuaigh sé ocht bhfráma dhéag in aghaidh a dó dhéag i gcoinne Mark Williams, iarchuradh ón mBreatain Bheag, sa chluiche ceannais; agus bhuaigh sé ar Ronnie O'Sullivan, duine de na himreoirí snúcair is fearr riamh, le seisiún le spáráil sa chluiche leathcheannais. Dar le máthair Zhao, toisc nach raibh sé ró-ard nuair a raibh sé ina ghasúr, bhí nós aige cleachtadh ag caitheamh scataí rollála, mar gheall ar na horlaí breise a thug siad dó.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Na Príomhscéalta Náisiúnta, Idirnáisiúnta agus Áitiuil, 5u Bealtaine 2025.

Gormfhlaith Ní Thuairisg.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an tríú lá de mhí na Bealtaine. Is mise Liam Ó Brádaigh. Sa Spáinn, leantar le himscrúduithe ar cad ba chúis le gearradh cumhachta tubaisteach an tseachtain seo, ceann de na bristeacha leictreachais is mó san Eoraip riamh. De réir anailísithe, thit an mhinicíocht ar eangach leictreachais na Spáinne go tobann, rud a chuir tús le múchadh go leor stáisiún cumhachta. Tá sé ráite ag Príomh-aire na Spáinne, Pedro Sánchez, go bhfuil an rialtas ag fiosrú gach cúis fhéideartha. Mar sin féin, tá polaiteoirí an fhreasúra ag cur an mhilleáin ar spleáchas na Spáinne ar fhuinneamh in-athnuaite. Fágadh thart ar 55 milliún duine sa Spáinn, sa Phortaingéil agus in áiteanna eile i ndeisceart na Fraince gan leictreachas Dé Luain. I measc na ngnéithe den saol ar cuireadh isteach orthu bhí comharthaí soghluaiste, soilse tráchta agus baincéireacht dhigiteach.Tá an grúpa rapcheoil ó Bhéal Feirste Kneecap á fhiosrú ag póilíní frithsceimhlitheoireachta sa Ríocht Aontaithe tar éis físeáin a tháinig chun cinn ina dtaispeántar an banna, de réir líomhaintí, ag iarraidh básanna Feisirí de chuid an Pháirtí Choimeádaigh agus ag béicíl "Up Hamas, up Hezbollah". D'eisigh Kneecap ráiteas ag rá nach nglacann siad leis an bhforéigean agus nach dtacaíonn siad le Hamas ná Hezbollah, ach gur cuireadh feachtas smearaidh orthu mar gheall ar a dtacaíocht leanúnach don Phalaistín agus ar a gcáineadh ar Iosrael. Tá litir oscailte sínithe ag na scórtha de cheoltóirí as Éirinn agus an Ríocht Aontaithe araon ag tacú leis an triúr agus ag rá go raibh “iarracht shoiléir, chomhbheartaithe idir lámha chun cinsireacht a dhéanamh ar an mbanna agus ar deireadh thiar iad a chur ó ardán”.Sna Toghcháin do Theach na dTeachtaí i gCeanada tá téarma eile i gcumhacht faighte ag an bPáirtí Liobrálach. Tá na Liobrálaithe i gcumhacht ó bhí 2015 ann ach seo é an chéad bhua ag an bpáirtí faoin bPríomh-Aire Mark Carney. Oíche Dé Luain labhair Mark Carney faoi theannas leanúnach taidhleoireachta agus eacnamaíoch le Stáit Aontaithe Mheiriceá agus a n-uachtarán, ag rá, “Tá an tUachtarán Trump ag iarraidh sinn a bhriseadh ionas go mbeimid i seilbh Mheiriceá. Ní dhéanfaidh sé sin - ní tharlóidh sé sin choíche.”*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Seán Clancy is An Drí ar Uisnigh (a Druid of the Hill of Uisneach) as well as a tour guide of Uisneach and a seanchaí (Irish storyteller). His family have lived around the base of Uisneach in Rathconrath, County Westmeath, right in the centre of Ireland, for generations. Follow Seán on Instagram where he releases stories, live every Tuesday. https://www.instagram.com/dri_uisnigh/ He's about to celebrate Bealtaine as he does each year on the sacred Hill of Uisneach. It's an ancient fire festival which attracts thousands of visitors. https://uisneach.ie/ Here, he describes the festival of Bealtaine and the history and mythology of Uisneach, as well as his own connections with the local area. Plus! A recent fairy encounter in Sean's local area! Starts at 39.25 mins. In the days leading up to St Patrick's Day, this March (2025) a local young woman (the daughter of a co-worker friend) was repeatedly stopped at a crossroads, late at night by a huge bird in increasingly strange circumstances...could the bird's uncanny owner herself have been one of the Good Neighbours? Seán recounts the TRUE STORY for us. ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY GROUP ⭐️ If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like minded folks, access to the Discord channels and joining events with other members, join us at: / themodernfairysightingspodcast S U P P O R T If you'd prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee' and I'd be very grateful

An album pin is a lapel pin with artwork inspired by a specific album or song from an album. It could be the actual album artwork or it could be inspired by a specific track on the album. The best album pins stand out on their own. They appeal to more than just your fans. It is simple, bold, and visually engaging. However, what truly makes it an “album pin” is that the purchaser also gets a digital album with their pin. I have an entire blog on my website with details including templates for you to make your own album pin jacket.
