The most petty and ill informed Cup final special Off the Ball in history! Stuart and Tam predict Aberdeen to take the men's Cup final to penalties... and win! Preview of Glasgow City Rangers, Stuart prefers Michael Sheen to Billy Connolly and if the answer is '139 years old'... with Jackie McNamara jnr, Gemma Fay and Brian Irvine.
It's six days until Celtic and Aberdeen meet in the Scottish Cup Final, and John B speaks to a former player from each side to take a trip down memory lane by recalling their respective past glories as well as looking ahead to this years showpiece.First up is Aberdeen's Brian Irvine looking back at The Dons last Scottish Cup success in 1990. Brian talks about the run to Hampden and how Alex Smith told him in advance of the Final that he'd retain his place ahead of the returning Willie Miller. Brian would then fulfil a boyhood dream by winning the Cup after a marathon penalty shootout victory, with his spot kick sealing a 9-8 success.Next up is Celtic cult hero Peter Grant. Having missed wins in '85 and '88 through injury, it would be third time lucky for Peter by picking up a winner's medal in 1989 thanks to a 1-0 win over Rangers. However, he talks more in depth about the 1995 Final against Airdrie where he overcame a late injury scare to put in a man of the match performance as the Hoops secured their first trophy in six years (yes young Celtic fans, that really did happen). Having been through those dark times, Peter is quick to remind Celtic fans to enjoy the current success whilst it's here.Copyright - audio from the 1990 and 1995 Scottish Cup Finals are courtesy of the Scottish FA, STV and BBC Scotland.Thanks as always for listening!Tweet us @sffpodcastInstagram - sffpodcastFacebook - Scottish Football ForumsMastodon - @sffpodcast@mastodon.scotBluesky - @sffpodcast.bsky.socialEmail - scottishfootballforumspodcast@gmail.com

Revego's CIO says the total investment for renewable energy in Sub-Saharan Africa for the next eight years could reach about 193 billion US dollars. In episode 9 of The Current, we discuss what needs to be done to mobilise the necessary capital to electrify Africa.

Artists all around the world are trying to make sense of what the advance of artificial intelligence will mean for their creative work. Will the very human traits of passion and creativity survive in a world where we let ever more intelligent machines do the work for us? In Belfast, the innovative people behind production company Dumbworld have been thinking about this question in radical ways, integrating AI into their mission to bring opera to the masses. Ivor Novello winning composer Brian Irvine and librettist John McIlduff brought a number of their street operas to Other Voices in Dingle, and at Ireland's Edge they spoke with musician and cultural consultant Dermot McLaughlin about shaking up opera and why they were moved to do so, harnessing technology to open up the art form to whole new audiences, and the implications and applications of AI for opera, music and the wider creative industries.For more on Dumbworld and their work: https://dumbworld.co.uk/ Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Image credit: The Japan Art Association As the celebrated violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter prepares for the premiere of John Williams's new violin concerto, she talks to Tom Service about making music in and out of the pandemic. She reflects on how her relationship to music has changed over the past 18 months and the need for urgent change when it comes to supporting music and culture in German and beyond. A New Topography of Love Part II is an animated video-game opera experience currently being developed by writer and director John McIlduff and composer Brian Irvine at Dumbworld productions, in collaboration with artists and game developers. Tom catches up with Brian Irvine and Vicky Potts from Whitepot Studios to find out how they plan to put opera inside arcade cabinets. The Berlin-based Belarusian conductor Vitali Alekseenok travelled back to Belarus last August to join protests against the latest election of Alexander Lukashenko as the country's leader – a result which has not been accepted by the EU or the UK. Vitali took part in daily musical protests on the streets of Minsk and has written a book about his experiences. He knows he can't now go back to Belarus for fear of being arrested - something that's already happened to many of his musician friends there. He talks to Tom about his hopes and fears for Belarus and the musicians and artists who speak out. American musician Jessie Montgomery is one of the most distinctive and communicative voices in the US, as a player and a creator. She writes chamber works and orchestral music, as well as improvising with double bassist Eleonore Oppenheim in her duo Big Dog, Little Dog. As she begins her new role as Chicago Symphony Orchestra's Mead Composer-in-Residence, she talks about her work and a newfound urgency to engage, connect and reflect through her music. And from the Music Matters archives, interviews with two composers whom the world has lost in recent days – Frederic Rzewski and Louis Andriessen.

Welcome to a special edition of the Scottish Football Forums Podcast with me Good John. This is a two-part special where I spoke to former Falkirk, Aberdeen, Dundee, Ross County and Scotland centre half Brian Irvine, one of my favourite players growing up as an Aberdeen fan. In the first of a two-part special, Brian talks about present day life as a key worker in two sectors with Marks and Spencer and as a Care Worker, which leads to an open discussion about the Coronavirus Pandemic and mental health in general. This leads to him talking briefly at his two jobs at the start of his career, working full time in a bank and part time with Falkirk for two years before joining boyhood hero's Aberdeen. He goes onto speak about learning his trade at the Dons, being stand in for legendary centre back pairing Willie Miller and Alex McLeish and filling in as a right back, central midfielder and even goalkeeper. He became a regular in the 1989/90 season and wrote himself into Dons folklore by scoring the winning penalty in the Scottish Cup Final against Celtic – the last time Aberdeen won the trophy. Irvine went onto win 9 caps for Scotland and he spoke of his pride of representing Scotland, including getting the shirt of a top Italian striker. He goes onto speak about the disappointment of missing out on the 1991 Premier Division title, playing his best football under Willie Miller and his part in keeping Aberdeen in the top flight in 1995 when it looked certain the Dons would go down. Without further ado, here is Part One of our interview with Brian Irvine.
