Well the Mavericks win big in Castleknock while the nights continue their push for a Playoff spot and all the other results from last week.

In this engaging and refreshingly honest interview, Niall is joined by The Apprentice UK breakout star Jordan Dargan, the only Irish contestant in this year's series, who made it all the way to the final five—despite not even being part of the original lineup. Jordan shares the behind-the-scenes reality of life on one of Britain's biggest business shows, what really went down in the boardroom, and how one text from Lord Sugar might just change everything.Jordan's story is one of bold risks and self-made success. He opens up about the last-minute twist that got him onto the show:“I was a reserve… I could have done everything and not even got on.”But when the call came, he was on the first flight to London—and determined to make an impact. Despite early challenges navigating the louder personalities, Jordan admits he held back at first, believing that if he didn't say anything controversial, he couldn't be edited poorly. But he quickly learned the show doesn't reward quiet strategy:“At the beginning, I was only saying things that I felt were necessary… and that's just not how the process works.”As the tasks intensified, Jordan found his stride. But one controversial final challenge—a gender-fluid fashion project—tested his instincts. He reveals he wanted to go a different direction but struggled under pressure:“I said I just don't think men wearing skirts is gonna sell… in hindsight, I should have stuck to my guns.”His honesty in discussing the clash between business sense and performative values is something listeners will find refreshingly grounded.Yet his most powerful moment came during a product pitch when he vulnerably shared details of a difficult childhood, connecting with buyers on a personal level. What viewers didn't fully see was the impact that had off-camera:“I opened up about that… and one of the buyers said he was sober for ten years and really resonated with it… there were real moments in it.”From being grilled over using brand logos without permission on his business website to being praised for his self-taught skills in 3D design, Jordan offers an unfiltered look at the highs and lows of the process. And while he didn't win, Lord Sugar saw enough in him to hand over something rarely offered—a personal phone number.“It's funny how quickly your life can change… just a year ago, I was delivering fruit and veg around Castleknock—now I'm delivering one-liners in the boardroom.”Jordan reflects on how the exposure has transformed his business, brought in clients, and even made him a role model to younger viewers:“What makes it all worth it is when kids come up to you saying they want to be a businessman because they saw you on The Apprentice.”He also talks about what viewers didn't see—the daily 20-minute wake-up calls, repeated takes for every scene, and how editing can shape public perception of each candidate. He even reveals who he thought should've made the final, and why he believes more Irish people should step up and apply:“We need representation over there. We need to get an Irish man to get his first win.”This episode offers a rare glimpse into the real Apprentice experience through the eyes of one of its most grounded and driven contestants. Whether you followed the series or not, Jordan's journey is one of resilience, reflection, and rising to the occasion when the odds are stacked against you.

Castleknock entrepreneur, Jordan Dargan, told Oliver how he went from being a lifelong fan of the BBC show The Apprentice to becoming this year's youngest candidate.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/2jxlz4zz Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Space and capacity for 67,000 dwellings on 83 sites. Áit agus acmhainn le haghaidh 67,000 áras cónaithe ar 83 suíomh. Almost 70,000 residential homes could be built on land owned by the State, says a new report to be submitted to the Government today. D'fhéadfaí beagnach 70,000 áras cónaithe a thógáil ar thalamh ar leis an Stát é, a deirtear i dtuarascáil nua atá le cur faoi bhráid an Rialtais inniu. The report compiled by the Land Development Agency claims that there are 83 sites in cities and towns where up to 67,000 homes could be built in the future. Maítear sa tuarascáil atá curtha i dtoll a chéile ag an nGníomhaireacht Forbartha Talún go bhfuil 83 suíomh i gcathracha agus i mbailte móra a bhféadfaí suas le 67,000 áras cónaithe a thógáil orthu i gceann na haimsire. Most of the sites are on land that has already been developed. Ar thalamh a forbraíodh cheana atá cuid mhór de na suímh. While the infrastructure of these places is outdated by now, they are all located in urban areas with plenty of public and private facilities. Siúd is go bhfuil bonneagar na n-áiteanna sin seanchaite faoi seo, tá siad ar fad suite i gceantair uirbeacha a bhfuil neart saoráidí poiblí agus príobháideacha iontu. The locations and number of sites are Dublin (38), Cork (14), Galway (8), Limerick (6), Waterford (4) Dundalk (4) Sligo (4), Ath Luin (2), Letterkenny (2) and Drogheda (1). Is iad na háiteanna agus líon na suíomh atá i dtreis Baile Átha Cliath (38), Corcaigh (14), Gaillimh (8), Luimneach (6), Port Láirge (4) Dún Dealgan (4) Sligeach (4), Baile Átha Luain (2), Leitir Ceanainn (2) agus Droichead Átha (1). However, there are great differences between the locations, and the various complexities mean that the construction work could not be undertaken everywhere at the same time, it is said. Tá éagsúlachtaí móra idir na suímh, áfach, agus fágann na castachtaí éagsúla nach bhféadfaí tabhairt faoin obair thógála i ngach áit ag an am céanna, a deirtear. However, according to the Land Development Agency, 9,760 residential houses could be built from here in the next five to ten years. Mar sin féin, dar leis an nGníomhaireacht Forbartha Talún go bhféadfaí 9,760 áras cónaithe a thógáil as seo go ceann cúig nó deich mbliana. 17,440 could be built in the following years, and the remaining 39,710 could be built in the long run. D'fhéadfaí 17,440 a thógáil sna blianta ina dhiaidh sin, agus ba i bhfad na haimsire a d'fhéadfaí an 39,710 eile a thógáil. As with Dublin, the report highlights in particular land owned by Horse Racing Ireland in Ballyna Lobar; location near the bus station in Castleknock; and another next to the Mint in Sandyford. Mar le Baile Átha Cliath de, soilsítear sa tuarascáil go háirithe talamh ar le Rásaíocht Capall Éireann é i mBaile na Lobhar; suíomh in aice leis an stáisiún bus i gCaisleán Cnucha; agus ceann eile taobh leis an Mionta in Áth an Ghainimh. A site with Irish Gas Networks on Dock Road in Limerick is also illuminated; a site with the Electricity Supply Board on Sarsellaigh Road in Cork; and land in the port of Galway. Soilsítear chomh maith suíomh le Líonraí Gáis Éireann ar Bhóthar an Duga i Luimneach; suíomh le Bord Soláthair an Lecitreachais ar Bhóthar an tSáirséalaigh i gCorcaigh; agus talamh i gcalafort na Gaillimhe.

In 'Looking Up' we meet the astronomers working in an historic observatory in Castleknock Co Dublin.

We take a tour of the observatory with astronomers who work in this historic building. We explore the site's history, and we discover what kind of scientific research happens there today - from studying solar flares to space weather, nearby planets to distant galaxies. Looking Up is a Shaun and Maurice production, produced by Maurice Kelliher and Shaun O'Boyle, and was funded by the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland, as part of the sound and vision scheme.

Sisu Clinic, a doctor-led aesthetic medicine destination offering a comprehensive range of non-surgical beauty treatments, opened the doors to its 15th Irish clinic this month, in Castleknock. The opening comes as part of the business' rapid global expansion plan with clinics across Ireland, the UK and the US. “Expanding internationally is a huge goal for the whole team at Sisu, but that has not halted our vision of increasing our footprint in Ireland. Castleknock is the perfect location for a Sisu Clinic, and the entire team is really looking forward to bringing a unique, modern and safe experience to all patients at this new clinic,” said Pat Phelan, Co-Founder and CEO of Sisu Clinic. Sisu Clinic was founded in 2018 by veteran tech start-up entrepreneur Pat Phelan in collaboration with Cork brothers Dr James Cotter and Dr Brian Cotter on the belief that patient care should be at the forefront of aesthetic treatments. With a team of over 20 medical practitioners in Ireland, the group has strived to safely bring advancements in cosmetic care to the masses while establishing a dynamic partnership between patients and their providers. The new Castleknock Sisu Clinic location will offer a comprehensive range of innovative, non-surgical Tweakments™ designed to refresh and restore the skin's natural beauty, including botox, fillers, Profhilo®, Sculptra®, thread lifts, and more. Patients schedule a free consultation to meet with a medical provider that can help them create their personalised care plan and in most cases, book same-day treatment. “We are seeing a huge interest in non-invasive cosmetic procedures for both women and men across Ireland in recent years, and our own growth highlights this. New and exciting procedures are constantly being developed, and what sets Sisu Clinic apart is our overriding goal to deliver these to patients safely and professionally, providing the best patient experience possible,” added Dr James Cotter, Co-Founder and Medical Director of Sisu Clinic. Sisu Clinic has been expanding both nationally and internationally in recent months, having opened up its first London location in August in Hampstead. Miami locals have also been introduced to the Irish brand, as Sisu launched its first stateside clinic at Shops at Merrick Park in June. Sisu plans to continue to open clinics globally for the remainder of the year, targeting New York City and Florida, in addition to additional locations in London and a clinic in Waterford City in Ireland. Dr Aishlinn Cummins and Dr Ailbhe Lohan will be primarily based in Sisu Clinic Castleknock, located at Unit 5A, Block B, Lidl Neighbourhood Centre, Castleknock, Dublin 15.

As of recording this episode, we are a few hours away from the second lockdown in Ireland and gyms being shut. Initially, I was not as level headed as I am in this podcast. I truly feel for businesses that are going to go under. It's not my place to lecture whether the country is doing the right thing or not but, from a health and fitness perspective, give my views on how to adapt to the next 4-6 weeks. And there are a few ways to do that as I talk about bodyweight training, how it can transfer over to the gym and the assessments we can do it keep ourselves motivated and on track. I also talk about how I am going to set goals for myself over the next 6 weeks. I talk a little about the conflict on Twitter (a dumpster fire as of late) about the importance of gyms with mental health. In short, I know they can help but they are not the essential service. They have helped me a lot in the past, but may not be for everyone and telling people to squat is not the first thing I would recommend to someone who is suffering! The 5km radius was a big blow to my marathon goals and training over the last few months. I'm not sure what I am going to do about that right now. But I do know how I am going to plan and adapt my sessions for my Boot Camp in Castleknock who I am grateful for that have stayed with through all the changes we have made since March.

Ronan Lee says the Dublin lockdown will not stop him from keeping his fitness facility in Castleknock open.

Big shout out and thanks to retired medical doctor Kathleen Barry and her team - for organizing this great event in the Castleknock Community Centre, Dublin. They paid for 1000's of flyers to distribute in the local community, and the result was a packed house. My talk was aimed squarely at the layperson, and covers heart disease Early Detection, Prevention...and Reversal. This I think is a great one for the people, so please share widely :-) Note: there was a highly-engaged Q&A session too - see end of this video for link to the YT vid of that!

On the latest Left Wing schools rugby special, Will Slattery is joined by Tony Ward and Des Berry to look ahead to the cup semi-finals. The lads start in Leinster, where St Michael's take on Newbridge and Clongowes go up against Castleknock. St Michael's recorded an impressive quarter-final victory over Gonzaga, giant-killers of Blackrock, and the panel think that they will be too strong for the Kildare school in the final four. However, even though St Michael's remain the team to beat, everyone is very impressed with Clongowes after their opening two wins over Terenure and St Gerard's. It is also a great year for Castleknock, after they beat Belvedere to qualify for their first semi-final since 2002. In Munster, an all-Cork final between rivals PBC and CBC looks likely while there are a number of top prospects in Ulster, including Nathan Doak, son of former Ireland international Neil. The Connacht semi-finals are also up for discussion, as is the behaviour of past pupils at schools games in Donnybrook.

Sickness strikes and the result is a two-man power trip as Dave and Craig strap in for another wild week in the world of music. On the cards; the dominance of Post Malone, Kurt Cobain's crumbling legacy, and tributes to the late, great Daniel Johnston. ACT ONE: Overheard in Castleknock and brief film-related discussion. ACT TWO: News, with the passing of Daniel Johnston, Kurt Cobain advertising concerns, festival recognition software, and a big SUPER-SHOW that we'll likely be avoiding. ACT THREE: New tunes from the likes of M83, Danny Brown, and a team-up between Slowthai and Denzel Curry. ACT FOUR: Post Malone is your new streaming overlord, but is he a worthy avatar for today's generation? The boys dive into Hollywood's Bleeding.  EXIT MUSIC: Orla Gartland - 'Did It To Myself'

Presented and produced by Seán Delaney. On this week's programme, philosopher and retired primary school teacher, John Doyle, reflects on teaching. First he uses the boxing ring as a metaphor for the classroom and preparation for teaching is like the time spent in a gym. Later in the programme he answers questions on books that influenced his teaching and advice for a beginning teacher. John taught for several years in St. Brigid's National School in Castleknock; I first met him when I was placed as a student teacher in his class in the mid 1980s.
