Podcasts about Clonmel

In this Final Furlong audio podcast exclusive, we reflect on two major moments that have rocked the racing world. First, Rachael Blackmore — the groundbreaking, history-making champion — has announced her retirement. From a 7lb claimer at Clonmel to winning every major championship race at Cheltenham and rewriting the Grand National record books aboard Minella Times, Rachael inspired a generation. Emmet Kennedy is joined by the man behind so many of those iconic victories, Henry de Bromhead, to pay tribute to a jockey who changed the sport forever. Then, we turn to Longchamp, where controversy erupted in the aftermath of the French 1,000 Guineas. She's Perfect crossed the line first — seemingly handing a first Classic win to trainer Charlie Fellowes and owner Basher Watts — only to be demoted after a stewards' inquiry in favour of a whipless Zarigana. What happened, and what does it say about racing's rules? Basher Watts joins us to give his first full reaction — and it's unmissable.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 6ú lá de mí Bealtaine, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1972 bhí fuadaitheoir ar eitleán I Washington an oíche roimhe agus dúirt siad leis an phíolóta chun an t- eitleán a leaindeáil agus chuir siad cheist I gcóir 115 míle punt chun 48 paisinéirí a scaoil. Ar deireadh fuair sé an t-airgead agus d'eitil sé. I 1983 bhí níos mó ná 900 duine breise ag fáil an dole agus dúradh go mbeadh níos mó ná 1,300 duine eile an mhaidin sin de bharr gur chaill a lán daoine a bpost. I 2001 bhí an nuachtán The Nationalist I Chluain Mheala ag cheiliúradh arís de bharr gur bhuaigh siad an Lotto don dara huair I seacht mbliana. Bhí 33 duine sa tsindeacáit agus chuaigh siad chuig an cheanncheathrú chun seic de mhilliún punt a fháil. Fuair gach duine timpeall 30 míle punt. I 2010 bhí ceithre scoil ó nDurlas ag glacadh páirt chun curiarracht dhomhanda a fháil a bhí ag scoil sa Bhreatain. Bhí an churiarracht domhanda a méid is mó daoine a bhí ag glacadh páirt I rás buataisí ag an am céanna. Bhí 1,500 duine ó scoileanna éagsúla ag glacadh páirt. Sin Tony Di Bart le The Real Thing – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1994. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 2002 tháinig sé amach go raibh Bohemian Rhapsody ó Queen an t-amhrán is cáiliúla sa Bhreatain. Tháinig John Lennon lena amhrán Imagine sa dara háit, Hey Jude ó The Beatles tar éis. Bhí Dancing Queen ó ABBA sa cheathrú háit agus Madonna le Like A Prayer sa cúigiú háit. I 2005 stop Starbucks á dhíol albam ó Bruce Springsteen Devils and Dust de bharr go raibh ábhar aosach ann. Ag an am bhí an siopa caife á dhíol CD agus dúirt siad nach mbeidís á dhíol CD ó Bruce Springsteen. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh amhránaí Bob Seger I Meiriceá I 1945 agus rugadh aisteoir George Clooney I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1961 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 6th of May, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1972: a hijacker held up an airliner over washington last night and forced the pilot to land, demanded £115,000 for the release of the 48 passengers, got it and then flew away. 1983: almost 900 more people had joined the dole que and they were likely to be joined by another 1,300 this morning after the blackest day on the jobs front since the recession began. 2001 – The Nationalist newspaper in Clonmel were celebrating again, following their second Lotto win in over seven years. The 33-strong syndicate will travel to Lotto headquarters to collect the £1,000,000 cheque. Each member stands to benefit to the tune of £30,303.  2010 - Four Thurles schools took part in smashing a previous Guinness World Record held by an English school for the most people taking part in a welly race at one time. At least 1,500 students from the Ursuline, Presentation, CBS, and Colaiste Co-Educational secondary schools joined forces for the record  That was Tony Di Bart with The Real Thing – the biggest song on this day in 1994 Onto music news on this day In 2002 'Bohemian Rhapsody' by Queen was voted the UK's favourite single of all time in a poll by the Guinness Hit Singles book. 'Imagine' by John Lennon was voted in at No.2 and ‘Hey Jude', The Beatles No.3, 'Dancing Queen' by ABBA was fourth and Madonna 'Like A Prayer' was in fifth place. 2005 US coffee shop chain Starbucks banned the sale of Bruce Springsteen's latest album Devils and Dust over concerns about its adult content. The retailer - which stocked CDs at its branches in the US - said it would be promoting other albums instead. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – singer Bob Seger was born in America in 1945 and actor George Clooney was born in America on this day in 1961 and this is some of the stuff he has done. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 24ú lá de mí Aibreán, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1965 fuair na Gardaí bean a bhí 67 bhliain d'aois I mBéal Feirste agus bhí sí reoite ina teach óna iníon. I 1981 tháinig an nuacht amach go raibh coisc ar chruinniú tuismitheoirí is múinteoirí agus bhí éileamh do 15 punt an uair do chomhairliúchán taobh amuigh d'uaireanta scoile. I 2000 faoi dheireadh bhuaigh Coláiste Cistercian I Ros Cré corn Craobh na hÉireann don chéad uair I 95 bhliain. I 2010 bhí plean I gcóir an fhoireann iománaíocht chun dul chuig an Spáinn chun traenáil ach cuireadh ar ceal é de bharr go raibh brúchtadh bolcán san Íoslainn agus de bharr sin chuaigh siad chuig láthair eile in Éirinn. Sin Bucks Fizz le Making Your Mind Up – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1981. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1995 tháinig Oasis amach le hamhrán nua Some Might Say agus fuair siad a chéad uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain. Níor tharla an fhís don amhrán de bharr nár tháinig Liam chuig an siút. Rinne siad an fís amach as cúpla fís eile – Cigarettes and Alcohol, Supersonic agus Whatever. I 2012 chuir Sineád O'Connor a turas ar ceal ag rá go raibh sí ag téarnamh ó chliseadh néarógach. Tháinig sí amach le ráiteas ar a shuíomh ag rá nach mbeadh aon cheolchoirm eile don bhliain de barr a neamhord dépholach. Agus tar éis scrios sí a shuíomh agus a Twitter.

Onto music news on this day In 1995 Oasis released 'Some Might Say' which went on to give the band their first UK No.1 single. The planned promo video for the song was cancelled due to Liam not turning up for the shoot. Instead, a makeshift video was created using footage from the 'Cigarettes & Alcohol', US 'Supersonic' and UK 'Whatever' videos. 2012 Sinead O'Connor cancelled the remaining dates of her world tour, saying she was still recovering from a "very serious breakdown". In a statement on her official website, she said she had scrapped all concerts this year due to her bipolar disorder. Her website was also now being deleted along with her Twitter account And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – singer Barbra Streisand was born in New York in 1942 and singer Kelly Clarkson was born in America on this day in 1982 and this is one of her songs. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

The new commission-free Love Tipperary Gift Card has gone live in the county with over 190 businesses accepting the card, including national brands and independent businesses. Tipperary businesses say the new gift card will drive footfall in local towns, take 'shop local' to the next level and provide an easy way to reward staff. County Tipperary Chamber and Tipperary County Council are behind the newly launched county-wide gift card for the towns of Carrick-On-Suir, Clonmel, Cahir, Cashel, Tipperary Town, Thurles, Templemore, Nenagh and Roscrea. Available to buy online as physical gift cards or digital e-cards, a range of shops, restaurants, salons, attractions and services are participating. Edel Kennedy is the owner of ladieswear boutique Edel's Boutique in Nenagh and said the gift card is a positive move for the county: "Nenagh is a thriving market town with many wonderful restaurants, coffee shops and of course boutiques. It's a shopper's paradise, we have it all! Nenagh's success can definitely be attributed to the fact that so many of the businesses are managed and run by the owners. We really do care about our customers and our town. Edel's Boutique has been in Nenagh for 19 years and has seen so many changes in that time, including plenty of challenges for small business owners. "The gift card is a fantastic initiative because it keeps money in the community. Small businesses have to pay commission to accept the national gift cards which is tough when margins are already tight. But the Love Tipperary Gift Card is commission free. As we approach the Christmas trading period, we as business owners are very excited for the launch of the gift card. We feel positive that we can take 'shop local' to the next level and put Tipperary on the map. "In Ireland, we have such a great incentive to reward staff tax free through the Small Benefit Exemption scheme and what better way to reward staff than the Love Tipperary Gift Card, encouraging employees to shop in the county, driving footfall and helping create thriving towns where people want to live and work. It's a no-brainer for organisations." A unique feature of the gift card is that it can be spent with both national brands and independent businesses, including New Look in Clonmel. Aisling O'Meara is the store manager and said: "New Look in Clonmel is one of the most profitable in Ireland but even as a national brand, we'd noticed a drop in footfall and were keen to look at initiatives to increase both footfall and dwell time in Clonmel. When we heard about the Love Tipperary Gift Card, we said 'this is amazing and how do we get involved'. "Even though New Look is a big brand, we're all local businesses staffed by local people and we all have pride in our town. By working together and backing each other through the gift card, we can help our town and our businesses to succeed. "The great thing about the Love Tipperary Gift Card is that it has to be spent in Tipperary county and will encourage people to visit Clonmel and other towns. I think the choice on offer with the card is really good. People will look at where to spend it, visit one business, and likely stay to try others. We have a reward and recognition scheme at our store, and this year we will buy the Love Tipperary Gift Card because it puts the money we invest in rewards back into our town." 5th generation Tipperary Town business O'Rahelly Sports is also participating. Bryan O'Rahelly said the gift card promotes the county: "The fact that people will have a card in their wallet - physical or digital - that has Tipperary on it is brilliant. It's a bit of advertising for our county and it's a push for people to shop local who might not have otherwise. It also means it's less likely to be forgotten about. "Some of the national gift cards have a 10% commission for businesses to accept the card whereas the Love Tipperary Gift Card has no commission, so when people buy the Love Tipperary Gift Card as a present, or orga...

Welcome to the Episode 99 Highlights Show of the Trail Running Ireland Podcast, sponsored by EcoTrail Wicklow 2024.On last weeks show, we chatted with Ireland´s new World Champion on the mountains, the World O40 gold medalist and all round serial winner over all surfaces, Kealey Tideswell from Clonmel, Tipperary.Everyone, get your running gear on, lets go!EcoTrail Wicklow 2024: Final Day of Registration - Thursday 26th of September at Midday.EcoTrail Wicklow will take place this Saturday 28th of September this year and is a fantastic festival of Trail Running with distances including; 80km, 46km, 30km, 19km and 10km.The event starts and finishes on the Bray Promenade and the race route includes some of Wicklow's most iconic and scenic locations including Bray Head, Killruddery Gardens, The Great Sugarloaf, Powerscourt Waterfall, the Wicklow Way, Lough Tay, Roundwood and the Vartry Reservoir.https://wicklow.ecotrail.com/

County Tipperary Chamber and Tipperary County Council are collaborating to introduce a county-wide gift card to champion 'shop local' and boost the local economy. The Tipperary Gift Card is set to launch pre-Christmas as part of efforts to drive footfall and spend across the county and in the towns of Carrick-On-Suir, Clonmel, Cahir, Cashel, Tipperary Town, Thurles, Templemore, Nenagh and Roscrea. Once launched, the Tipperary Gift Card will only be able to be spent with registered businesses, in person, locking spend into the county. There will be a 0% commission rate for the first 12 months for Tipperary businesses to accept the new gift card, keeping 100% of the transaction within the business. All types of businesses are eligible to accept the card, including retail, hospitality, leisure and tourism, health/beauty and services, with no additional equipment required. Businesses don't have to be a County Tipperary Chamber member to be a part of the new gift card. Michelle Aylward, Chief Executive at County Tipperary Chamber said: "Local businesses are the backbone of our Tipperary communities and now is the time for us to work together on a single shop local gift card for the whole county that will be transformative for our towns. "The Tipperary Gift Card is a phenomenal opportunity for Tipperary businesses to bring people through their doors with money to spend. With the zero commission to accept the card, there is no reason for a business not to be a part of this gift card. And as all types of consumer facing businesses can accept the card, it spreads out the benefit across Tipperary. It will provide tangible support for businesses and help to pull our communities together." Sinead Carr, C.E. of Tipperary County Council stated: "The availability of such an opportunity in County Tipperary is something I have long envisaged and I am particularly delighted to see that it will be in place for the Christmas 2024 period. Registering to accept the forthcoming Tipperary Gift Card is straightforward and cost-free. As we approach the key Christmas trading period, being a part of the gift card is a route to new revenue and new customers." The Tipperary Gift Card will be part of the multi award winning Town & City Gift Card concept active across Ireland in Ballinrobe, Carndonagh, Drogheda, Letterkenny, Sligo and Waterford. Over €7 million Town & City Gift Cards were sold in Ireland in 2023, with around 80% of sales to organisations for staff rewards and incentives. Colin Munro is the managing director of Miconex and said: "What makes the Tipperary Gift Card unique is the technology behind it. The card is Mastercard backed so the balance gets automatically updated when customers spend. Customers can check their balance in moments using the QR code on the gift card. And there will be a digital version of the card that customers can upload to digital wallets. This all makes the process of accepting the gift card friction-free for businesses, and that is vital." Cathaoirleach of Tipperary County Council Cllr Declan Burgess stated: "The collaboration between County Tipperary Chamber and Tipperary County Council on the forthcoming county-wide Tipperary Gift Card is a fantastic example of organisations joining together for the benefit of their communities both socially and economically. When we look at the success of Town & City Gift Card programmes across Ireland, the potential of the new gift card to keep Tipperary money in Tipperary towns is considerable." See more stories here.

A key event in the calendar for many people living in rural Ireland, is the Mr Personality Festival organised by Kilkenny Macra. This week, we have a special Young Stock Podcast as Sarah McIntosh and Martin Merrick take us behind the scenes as they judge this year's competition. Taking place in Clonmel, from the 5 to 7 April, a weekend full of events saw 25 contestants from Macra clubs across the country battle it out in order to be named Mr Personality 2024. From making the judges ham and cheese sandwiches, to milking a cow on stage, this year's contestants didn't make it an easy task to pick a winner with a high calibre of talent's displayed during the on-stage interviews.Last year's winner Andrew Dunne speaks to us about what he has been up to since winning the title in 2023, and the impact it has had on his life.We also managed to catch up with a few of the contestants during the weekend to find out why they wanted to enter the competition and how they found the experience. The event wouldn't be possible without the hard work of the organising committee, we spoke to Christine O'Neill chairperson on the work that goes on behind the scenes.Taking home the Mr Personality 2024 title was Mark Riordan from Kenmare, Co Kerry. Speaking to us the day after he won, Mark emphasises the importance of staying together during the tough challenges young farmers are currently facing. “We talk about silage; we talk about breeding and we talk about all the challenges with farming but there is a lot happening on farm and there is a lot happening in farmers heads that we don't talk about enough. Its not easy out there at the moment and if you look at the weather for the next week especially, it's probably disheartening but I think as a community, as Macra we have to be there for each other, were all in the same boat and this will pass,” says Mark.

On March 15, 1895, thirty-five-year-old Michael Cleary murdered his wife, twenty-six-year-old Bridget Cleary in their home in Ballyvadlea, County Tipperary. While terrible, the murder was just the last act in a series of bizarre atrocities committed against Bridget, whom her husband would later claim had been taken by malevolent fairy folk and replaced with a changeling.More shocking, however, was that the barbaric act hadn't been committed by one man alone, but by a group of rural men, including family. Was Bridget Cleary really murdered out of fear of fairies? Or had Michael Cleary just convinced himself of as much in order to commit murder?ReferencesBourke, Angela. 1999.

TRUE CRIME - On this episode we discuss a harrowing case of abuse and revenge; two brothers who killed their parents in a brutal and meticulously premeditated manner were paraded across the mainstream media as cold hearted killers. During the televised case however, the extent of the sexual and psychological abuse they suffered was described in sickening detail and the motivations for their actions became that much more murkily motivated. This time we are talking about The Menendez Brothers. Raised in an affluent California family, Lyle and Erik Menendez were what some would call privileged; but their upbringing was anything but idyllic. Their father Jose and mother Kitty were successful but cruel, and the very thing that made the brothers a success was the thing they despised. Verbal and psychical abuse was meeted out on them from both parents and when they finally snapped and killed them both in a shotgun bloodbath, the world looked on with disgust. Lawyer Leslie Abramson, who advocated for the boys in court during their lengthy televised trial, was visibly appalled and angered at the abuse they suffered. This 1993/1994 trial called more witnesses than any other murder trial in history and ended up with no satisfying solution; going to another trial which led to the conviction of the two brothers who still reside in prison. A very strange and sad case that deserves discussion; not least to shine a light on the victims of domestic and sexual abuse; but on the voyeuristic and cruel nature of modern mainstream media. ________________________ Joining me on this episode is comedian and raconteur Danny O'Brien; now world famous, has gigged everywhere from Dublin to Dubai, from Clonmel to Costa Rica.
