It's a heavyweight special today as we're joined by Ireland's top man in the showbiz division, undefeated Dublin banger Thomas ‘The Bomber' Carty. Carty was on with us three years ago as a 1-0 pro and since then his picked up some momentum. He's fought at the O2 in London, the Nottingham Arena, Wembley Arena and York Hall in the UK. And he's managed to fulfil part one of the pro dream by boxing on huge cards back home – twice at the 3Arena on the Katie Taylor v Chantelle Cameron cards, and a trip out west to fight alongside his Celtic Warrior brothers – and manager Dillian Whyte – in Castlebar, Co Mayo. He's also won a belt in the form of the BUI Celtic title and oh, he started a business too. Next up, on September 20, is another outing at Dublin's 3Arena, this time supporting another boxer who's getting a homecoming in the shape of Callum Walsh. Argentina's Jonathan Exequiel Vergara, who's won six and lost one so far, will be in the opposite corner on what's sure to be a fun night at the fights. With the 6ft 4in southpaw back on another major card at the 3Arena, we ask if there's any truth to the rumour that it's in the venue's contract that if there's no Carty, there's no party. We also look ahead to the undercard featuring the Craig O'Brien v Edward Donovan and Emmet Brennan v Kevin Cronin derby fights, and upcoming heavyweight slobberknockers featuring his sparring partners Anthony Joshua (v Daniel Dubois) and Tyson Fury (v Oleksandr Usyk II).

Safe Unsound | Documentary What is Safe Unsound about? Three Ukrainian families find a foothold in a remote corner of Ireland. How temporary is their life there? No one knows. ---------- LINKS: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/d-j-b/safe-unsound-documentary ---------- THE TEAM: Daniel James Baldwin - Director and Producer Hannah Tookey - Producer Steve Lacey - Executive Producer Daria Korsak - Editor and Translator Jackie Teboul - Director of Photography ---------- In Spring 2022, the plight of Ukraine and its people was at the forefront of our minds and we opened our arms to them. Today, 6 million displaced Ukrainians face a souring of that mood, and Moscow is poised to take advantage the moment our emotional fatigue kicks in. Safe Unsound is a story about the human cost of war told from the perspective of three Ukrainian families containing three generations. In County Mayo, in Ireland, where they moved after the invasion of their country, they are far from the frontline, and very far from home. Victor and his wife Ludmilla imagined spending their retirement eating apples in their orchard, not learning English in an abandoned schoolhouse in Castlebar. Kate planned to learn to dance, not leave her law career and husband in Kyiv to work day and night to rebuild a life for her young children in the countryside. Maryna hoped to support her four kids and help them thrive, not keep the peace at home while her eldest daughter, Arina, works to make ends meet. This film explores these families' efforts to contribute to, and fit into, Irish society as well as their tireless quest for control, momentum, and independence. ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.
