We start with the Tingle Creek Chase (3:00 Sandown) where Il Etait Temps is the odds-on favourite with 1xBet to give Willie Mullins another Grade 1 in a race he first won nine years ago. But L'Eau du Sud arrives race-fit after bolting up at Cheltenham. And Jonbon, already a dual winner of the Tingle Creek, bids to become only the second horse ever to win it three times. The panel have strong and divided views on who wins.

#AD - Cork Street Galleries special episode!We meet art critic Louisa Buck to explore 100 years of Cork Street!Cork Street Galleries this year celebrates its centenary as a pioneering force in the art world, with 2025 marking 100 years as the iconic London art destination. A specially curated programme honours its rich legacy as the historic and enduring home of modern and contemporary art in London.In tribute to the centennial year, a first-of-its-kind initiative, a group exhibition entitled Fear Gives Wings to Courage was staged across all 15 galleries on Cork Street in the Summer, with each gallery presenting a response to a central theme conceived by Tarini Malik, curator of modern and contemporary Art at the Royal Academy of Arts, London.Fear Gives Wings to Courage has been commissioned in three parts as a response to the curatorial theme conceived by Malik. This is comprised of Fear Gives Wings to Courage Part I; a new edition of the Cork Street Galleries Banners Commission forming an outdoor element of the exhibition on view until the end of 2025; Fear Gives Wings to Courage Part II; a presentation of works within each participating gallery space, on view from 11 to 25 July 2025; and Fear Gives Wings to Courage Part III; CATALOGUE Issue 8:0, guest-edited by Malik, which coincided with Frieze London 2025.Taking its title from Jean Cocteau's seminal 1938 work La peur donnant des ailes au courage(Fear Giving Wings to Courage), the exhibition celebrates 100 years of Cork Street and the transformative potential of artists' voices both within gallery spaces and outside of them. Gesturing to the street's long-established cultural history, the exhibition's theme recalls Cork Street's pioneering role in transforming London into a hub for international art practices in the twentieth century, while also making it one of the key platforms in Europe for the expansion of Surrealist and Dadaist movements.13 years after Freddy Mayor established the first gallery on Cork Street in 1925, Peggy Guggenheim opened her 'Guggenheim Jeune' gallery in 1938. While hosting her first show with the famed polymath Jean Cocteau, the gallery stirred up significant controversy due to his painting La peur donnant des ailes au courage (Fear Giving Wings to Courage), which was confiscated by British customs authorities upon arrival in the United Kingdom. Similarly, this exhibition nods to the necessity of the gallery ecosystem in encouraging, upholding and presenting artists' practices that are assertions of agency in the face of societal and political pressures. The galleries on Cork Street were asked to respond to the theme with artists' work that can be thought of as emblematic of Cocteau's unabashed vigour and Guggenheim's abiding belief in supporting artists. The galleries were also encouraged to profile artists who continue to draw from the legacies of Surrealism, not as a mere style or movement within the Western canon, but rather as a state of mind; a fluid, boundless approach of navigating notions of the self and society that transgress borders and temporalities.

The Nimbus Research Centre at Munster Technological University (MTU), working through the ENTIRE European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH), part of a national programme helping businesses and public bodies adopt new digital technologies, has helped a Cork-based entrepreneur turn a simple recycling idea into an immersive virtual reality (VR) education product and a new business, Envir-Aware Ltd. Working through ENTIRE EDIH and drawing on Nimbus' digital transformation expertise, the MTU team supported Cork entrepreneur Jim Mulcahy in developing Enviro-Bin-Aware, a VR training app that teaches correct sorting and deposit-return choices through short, game-style levels. Jim Mulcahy of Envir-Aware spotted a simple but costly problem, which was that bin colours mean different things. At his home, the burgundy bin is for recycling and the green bin is for general waste, the opposite to the national 'MyWaste' scheme, where black denotes general waste and green denotes clean, dry recyclables. Discussing the journey from idea to innovation with the Nimbus Research Centre, Jim said: "Through our research we found there is obvious widespread confusion when it comes to domestic waste management with the array of multicoloured wheelie bins out there. The attitude and support from the entire Nimbus team was brilliant: there's no such thing as 'we can't' with them. I couldn't say enough about them. They backed my idea, iterated it with me, and brought the technical know-how to bring our Enviro-Bin-Aware VR App to fruition. Nimbus developing the Enviro-Bin-Aware VR app didn't just help our digital transformation; it has created a whole new business opportunity for my company. People were absolutely blown away by the power of the interactive environmental message they were left with. Apart from the many hours of research, workshops & working closely with the Nimbus team, our overall investment has been quite low." Early demonstrations of the Enviro-Bin-Aware VR app have generated strong interest in pilot projects and wider regional roll-outs. Envir-Aware are also delivering their first Enviro-Bin-Aware VR app presentation to a large Cork-based multinational corporation, and a group of Cork County Libraries. Brian Cahill, Nimbus EI TEC Gateway Manager, said: "ENTIRE lets organisations de-risk digital projects through scoping, prototyping and pilot testing. That approach accelerated this concept from storyboard to working VR tool." ENTIRE supports are offered within a time-bound funding envelope. For SMEs, support is provided under the de minimis state aid rules and draws on the company's available de minimis allocation. For public sector organisations, support is fully subsidised, subject to eligibility. With demand increasing, MTU encourages organisations to make contact promptly to confirm eligibility and secure support within the current window. ENTIRE is fully funded by Enterprise Ireland and led by Tyndall National Institute, with consortium partners including Walton Institute, Munster Technological University, University College Cork and Skillnet Ireland.
As we enter the home stretch of the Cork GAA season, the Echo Podcast crew look at the major action at club, schools and third level.There was Junior A joy for the hurlers of Kilshannig and the footballers of Kilmacabea. In a double-header at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh, the two clubs with that bit more experience got the job done and will move up to Premier Junior for 2026.There was an extra incentive for Kilshannig as they paid tribute to jockey and former player Michael O'Sullivan, who tragically lost his life following a racecourse fall. Wing-back Kieran Twomey was Man of the Match in the decider but it was a collective effort as they dominated a Ballinora outfit bidding to complete the double.Kilmac pushed for home in the last quarter of their clash with a youthful Donoughmore unit, turning their West Cork dominance into county glory after a series of disappointments in recent seasons.At Munster level, Kilbrittain are closing in on a trip to Croke Park after an emphatic Munster Junior Hurling final showing. In camogie, St Finbarr's and Ballincollig secured their All-Ireland final trips with terrific semi-final showings up the country, the Barrs prevailing after extra, extra time for the second time in recent weeks.Closer to home, Midleton outgunned the Collig in one U21 A quarter-final but the Valley Rovers hurlers pulled off a massive shock in the other by defeating a Glen Rovers unit that looked the part in the City Division.It's now Midleton v Newcestown and Valleys-Shandrum in the last four, with the Magpies aiming to retain the county.We preview the Munster football finals, as Buttevant, Aghabullogue and St Finbarr's can on the best sides from Kerry, eager to improve on Cork's recent record in the competition, especially in the junior and intermediate grades.The knockout stages of the Corn Uí Mhuirí are set while Coláiste Choilm and Clonakilty collide in the Simcox Cup final. In the Dr O'Callaghan Cup decider there's a Harty Cup group stage rematch when Gaelcholáiste Mhuire AG face Christians.Now in its third season, every week Éamonn Murphy is joined by The Echo team, including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, Jack McKay, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.

Ireland has been slow to name its airports after people. Streets and housing estates, yes, but as Ronan McGreevy points out, the State is more inclined to honour those who died for Ireland rather than those who lived for it.A Bill to rename Dublin Airport after former taoiseach Seán Lemass has been brought forward in the Dáil.It is not the first time the suggestion has been made; four years ago Taoiseach Micheál Martin proposed it, but talk of it fizzled out.For McGreevy, an Irish Times journalist and historian whose next book is on Lemass, the former taoiseach and leader of Fianna Fáil (1959-1966) is a clear choice.He tells In the News how Lemass was a great moderniser and as minister for industry and commerce when the airport opened in 1940, was a a supporter of facilitating air travel both in and out of the country.The proposed legislation was introduced on Tuesday by Fianna Fáil TD Malcolm Byrne, who said the airport “owes much to his policies and foresight”.So will the Seán Lemass Dublin International Airport Bill 2025 succeed? And why are we so reluctant to honour our former taoisigh? He points out that Cork's Jack Lynch Tunnel is the only piece of State infrastructure named after a former leader.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan and John Casey.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by guitarist and songwriter Cathal Mac Gabhann from Cork alt-rock and shoegaze outfit The Altered Hours — one of Ireland's most vital underground bands. The Altered Hours released their self-titled third album on November 7th via Pizza Pizza Records. Recorded to tape by analogue producer Julie McLarnon (New Order, Lankum, Happy Mondays), the album captures the band at their most raw, warm, and emotionally direct. Formed in 2010, the band have carved out a unique place in the European alternative scene through two albums, a run of EPs, and a reputation for immersive, fuzz-drenched live shows. Their independent spirit has earned them admiration from peers and fans alike. Cathal discusses the band's evolution, the creative shift behind the new record, and how recording to tape has brought out their most dynamic sound yet. He also reflects on touring with Fontaines D.C., playing venues like The Bataclan and Alexandra Palace, and stepping in as their live guitarist across Japan and Australia. Now signed to Pizza Pizza Records, The Altered Hours step confidently into a new phase — honouring their psych-rock roots while pushing into bolder, more atmospheric territory. Listen to Cathal Mac Gabhann discuss the making of the new album, the journey behind it, and where The Altered Hours go next — exclusively on the XS Noize Podcast.

Applications are now open at rethinkireland.ie/open-funds/ and will close on Friday, 16 January at 1 pm. Rethink Ireland is the national funding body supporting the most innovative non-profit organisations and social enterprises working to create a more just, equal and sustainable Ireland.

Impact Fund 2025 will put resources where they can have the greatest effect, empowering local people to deliver inclusion, wellbeing and climate resilience from the ground up." Deirdre Mortell, CEO, Rethink Ireland, added: "Since 2016, Rethink Ireland has invested over €15.8 million in supports for over 150 projects in the Munster region. We've seen first-hand the extraordinary creativity and leadership that exists in local communities across Ireland. Previous versions of the Impact Fund proved that when you trust communities to lead, the results speak for themselves, from schools pioneering climate education to young women building confidence and connection. "Impact Fund 2025 underscores the power of investing in local solutions to deliver national impact. With this funding, we can help communities to thrive and create lasting change for generations to come." Colin Healy, Co-founder of Kinsale-based charity, Sailing into Wellness, a not-for-profit social enterprise that delivers therapeutic sailing programmes and an awardee of Rethink Ireland, said: "Thanks to the support of Rethink Ireland, we've been able to bring our therapeutic sailing programmes to those who need it most.

AssistiV, an innovative technology designed to support sustainable employment opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities that has the potential to support 1,000 jobs by 2030 is being rolled out nationally. AssistiV plans to scale up to support jobs for 100 people nationwide within two years and reach 1,000 users by 2030, helping to close Ireland's significant employment gap for people with disabilities. AssistiV's screen-based technology simplifies complex workplace tasks into easy-to-follow picture, text or audio clues, empowering individuals with learning or intellectual disabilities or autism to perform their roles independently and confidently to the correct standard. The rollout is being supported by HEINEKEN Ireland, which has worked with AssistiV to pilot the technology in hospitality venues and to raise awareness of the potential for inclusive employment in the sector. The launch took place at the Hyatt Centric Hotel, in Dublin, where two sisters, Emma and Kate Connolly, are using the AssistiV technology to work in the hotel. The sisters are among 18 people working in hospitality across Ireland now using the technology, with 20 more employed in retail and manufacturing roles in companies ranging from owner-run local businesses to large multinationals. Minister for Social Protection Dara Calleary TD was also in attendance at the launch. Emma and Kate recently joined the Hyatt Centric restaurant team, where they work alongside colleagues taking orders, waiting tables, and serving guests. They previously completed a programme delivered by HEINEKEN Ireland to train and upskill people for roles in the hospitality sector. Emma Connolly said: "I love working here at the Hyatt. Everyone has been really kind and supportive and using AssistiV helps me remember my tasks and feel confident doing my job. It's great to be part of a busy team and to meet new people every day." AssistiV is working closely with Down Syndrome Ireland, NOW Group, and the National Learning Network to support more people with learning disabilities into employment, ensuring they can access the right training, skills development and on-the-job support. Social Protection Minister Dara Calleary TD said: "I want to commend AssistiV on their latest partnership with the Hyatt Centric and Hodson Bay Group. AssistiV represents the very best of innovation - technology that makes a tangible difference in people's lives. It demonstrates how the right tools and supports can open doors, create opportunity, and allow people to reach their full potential at work. "As Minister for Social Protection, I am committed to supporting more people with additional needs into meaningful employment, and initiatives like AssistiV show what's possible when technology and empathy come together. One of the great opportunities here is the ability to bring inclusive employment into every community in Ireland, and the hospitality sector gives us a powerful platform to do that." Alan Craughwell, CEO of AssistiV Ireland, said: "Our goal is simple - to create a world where anyone who wants to work, can work, and choice is not a luxury, it's standard. Every person deserves the chance to contribute meaningfully at work. We're proud that AssistiV has already helped almost 40 people achieve just that, and with today's launch, we're ready to bring those opportunities to hundreds more people across Ireland. I would like to thank HEINEKEN Ireland for its continued support of AssistiV. They have backed this initiative from the start, and we look forward to continuing to work with them. If just 1% of Irish pubs used this technology for example, we could support 600 jobs throughout the country." Sharon Walsh, Managing Director of HEINEKEN Ireland, said: "At HEINEKEN Ireland, we believe inclusion and belonging should be a core part of the workplace.

He's been coaching for five decades and took his first steps in the sport more than 70 years ago. Tommy has coached more than 30 Irish champions and internationals and led Ireland's boxers at the 1987 and 1988 Gaelic Youths before guiding the senior team to the 1989 World Championships in Moscow, where Michael Carruth claimed a bronze medal. We hear about Tommy's boxing philosophy, how quickly he can spot the will to win in a young contender, setting a fighter's nerves before the lonely walk to the ring, coaching a young Roy Keane, impressing Christy Ring, appearing on The Young Offenders and why he's still putting his life and soul into coaching up-and-coming talents at the Glen Boxing Club on Cork's northside.

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) in cyber attacks is prompting small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) to adopt managed detection and response (MDR) services and explore autonomous security operations centers (SOCs). Research from TechAisle indicates that awareness of MDR among SMBs increased from 39% in 2023 to 61% in 2025, with 89% of mid-market firms prioritizing cyber resilience. This shift is driven by the need for effective security operations that do not rely on in-house expertise, as AI-driven threats evolve faster than traditional defenses can respond.A report from UpGuard highlights the prevalence of shadow AI, revealing that 68% of security leaders use unauthorized AI tools, with 90% of them bypassing corporate governance. This disconnect between security protocols and employee behavior underscores the need for organizations to adapt their governance strategies. Additionally, a significant cyber attack attributed to a Chinese state-sponsored group demonstrated AI's capability to autonomously conduct reconnaissance and data exfiltration, marking a shift in threat actor tactics.Retail executives are increasingly concerned about their employees' ability to identify genuine cyber threats, with 44% reporting a rise in cyber attacks. Despite this awareness, only 25% feel prepared for AI-driven incidents. The report emphasizes the necessity for retailers to adopt a resilience-focused approach, including improved application security and identity controls, to mitigate risks associated with sophisticated cyber threats. This highlights a broader trend across industries where reliance on employee training alone is insufficient to combat evolving threats.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs), these developments present both challenges and opportunities. The increasing complexity of cyber threats necessitates a shift towards operational models that prioritize continuous verification and behavioral analysis over traditional detection methods. MSPs can leverage this moment to guide organizations in developing effective cybersecurity strategies that address the preparedness gap, ensuring that clients are equipped to handle the evolving landscape of AI-driven attacks.

In the early morning hours of October 8, 1964, thirty-four-year-old housewife and mother of three Lucille Miller placed a frantic call to the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department to report that there had been a car accident on remote Banyan Street and her husband had been killed. When deputies arrived at the scene, the car was still in flames and, as Lucille had described, her husband Gordon “Cork” Miller was in the passenger seat, nearly unrecognizable from the extent of the fire damage.The evidence at the scene appeared to support Lucille's version of events; the car had gone off the road while they were driving and caught fire. Lucille managed to get out of the car, but Cork was unconscious and she was unable to get him out. Less than twelve hours later, however, Lucille's story began to fall apart and by the end of the day she was arrested for the murder of her husband. At first, the case against Lucille Miller seemed relatively straightforward; she killed her husband for the insurance money and to pursue a relationship with another man. But as the investigation unfolded and investigators began digging into the Miller's lives, the story became significantly more complicated and no one seemed able to decide whether Cork's death was in fact a murder.Want to buy our GORGEOUS Tarot Deck designed by the incredibly talented Marisa Aragón Ware?
