Greetings! So, during my recent jaunt to Europe, I found a killer used CD/vinyl store in Budapest and was tempted to dispose of my clothes and just fill by suitcase up with CDs. The track from George Harrison's "Electronic Sound" is a sampling from the stack I did procure, with other items likely to show up in the coming weeks. I'm also happy to highlight electric guitarist Garrett Gleason's "Myths & Hymns", incredibly imaginative take on Adam Guettel's beautiful song cyle. Enjoy!

Mark Carruthers asks Enda McClafferty, Suzanne Breen and Chris Donnelly if the DUP Leader has actually played a difficult political game very skilfully.
As hard as it might be to believe in 2023 (he says with the sarcasm dripping in his voice) there once was a time when New York City was not particularly pleased with its two representatives in the American and National Leagues. In the early '90s, as Chris Donnelly (@cdonnelly81) chronicles in his book Road to Nowhere, both the Mets and the Yankees had hit the skids. But their paths from there diverged over the next few years, and Chris tells Mike and Bill all about how one team managed to recover while the other languished. Plus, happy birthday to Rod Beck and Doug Rader!

Last year Chris sold a creative marketing agency he'd founded called Verb and he's now the Co-Founder of Lottie, which just raised £6 million on a £45 million valuation. But before these successes, he experienced failure with his website the Real Uni Guide, which aimed to match students with the right universities for them. Along with his co-founder brother, he spent over a year building the website but when they launched, hardly anyone visited. Find out what happened and what Chris learnt from this failure that defined his career. If you have any feedback, we'd love to hear it.

A five-stage plan for easing the Covid-19 lockdown in Northern Ireland has been published by the Executive. Unlike plans announced in England and the Republic of Ireland, NI's blueprint does not include a timetable - but the First Minister says she hoped to reach the final stage by December. That's some time off. So how do we move forward along this five step plan? Arlene Foster says progression will depend on key health criteria being met. One of those is the R number. That's the reproduction number or the rate at which one person infects other people with Covid-19. Stephen spoke to Professor Ian Young - Chief Scientific Advisor to the Department of Heath Northern Ireland, TUV MLA Jim Allister, People Before Profit MLA Gerry Carroll, and commentators Mick Fealty and Chris Donnelly.

Mickey Callaway has a chance to save his job. Can he clean up the communication? The first mailbag of 2019! Chris Donnelly author of the book “Doc, Donnie, the Kid, and Billy Brawl” joins the show. Wrap up with who would win a fictitious 1985 Subway Series.
Chris Donnelly's new book Doc, Donnie, The Kid and Billy Brawl: How the 1985 Mets and Yankees Fought For New York’s Baseball Soul (University of Nebraska Press, 2019) focuses on the 1985 New York baseball season, a season like no other since the Mets came to town in 1962. Never before had both the Yankees and the Mets been in contention for the playoffs so late in the same season. For months New York fans dreamed of the first Subway Series in nearly thirty years, and the Mets and the Yankees vied for their hearts. Despite their nearly identical records, the two teams were drastically different in performance and clubhouse atmosphere. The Mets were filled with young, homegrown talent led by outfielder Darryl Strawberry and pitcher Dwight Gooden. They were complemented by veterans including Keith Hernandez, Gary Carter, Ray Knight, and George Foster. Meanwhile the Yankees featured some of the game’s greatest talent. Rickey Henderson, Dave Winfield, Don Mattingly, and Don Baylor led a dynamic offense, while veterans such as Ron Guidry and Phil Niekro rounded out the pitching staff. But the Yankees’ abundance of talent was easily overshadowed by their dominating owner, George Steinbrenner, whose daily intrusiveness made the 1985 Yankees appear more like a soap opera than a baseball team. Steinbrenner’s antics were highlighted by a bizarre relationship with the erratic Billy Martin, who he hired for a fourth time after firing manager Yogi Berra just 16 games into the season. Paul Knepper is an attorney and writer who was born and raised in New York and currently resides in Austin. He used to write about basketball for Bleacher Report and is currently working on his first book about the New York Knicks teams of the 1990s.

But the Yankees’ abundance of talent was easily overshadowed by their dominating owner, George Steinbrenner, whose daily intrusiveness made the 1985 Yankees appear more like a soap opera than a baseball team. Steinbrenner’s antics were highlighted by a bizarre relationship with the erratic Billy Martin, who he hired for a fourth time after firing manager Yogi Berra just 16 games into the season. Paul Knepper is an attorney and writer who was born and raised in New York and currently resides in Austin. He used to write about basketball for Bleacher Report and is currently working on his first book about the New York Knicks teams of the 1990s.

Chris Donnelly's new book Doc, Donnie, The Kid and Billy Brawl: How the 1985 Mets and Yankees Fought For New York’s Baseball Soul (University of Nebraska Press, 2019) focuses on the 1985 New York baseball season, a season like no other since the Mets came to town in 1962. Never before had both the Yankees and the Mets been in contention for the playoffs so late in the same season. For months New York fans dreamed of the first Subway Series in nearly thirty years, and the Mets and the Yankees vied for their hearts. Despite their nearly identical records, the two teams were drastically different in performance and clubhouse atmosphere. The Mets were filled with young, homegrown talent led by outfielder Darryl Strawberry and pitcher Dwight Gooden. They were complemented by veterans including Keith Hernandez, Gary Carter, Ray Knight, and George Foster. Meanwhile the Yankees featured some of the game’s greatest talent. Rickey Henderson, Dave Winfield, Don Mattingly, and Don Baylor led a dynamic offense, while veterans such as Ron Guidry and Phil Niekro rounded out the pitching staff.
