E128 The Fifth Court – Drawing the Line: The Story of the Irish Boundary CommissionDr. Cormac Moore – an historian with Dublin City Council's Historian-in-Residence programme and author of Birth of the Border: The Impact of Partition in Ireland. He is a recognised authority on the politics, personalities, and legal frameworks surrounding the Irish border.It was meant to settle the border between North and South once and for all. Instead, it nearly collapsed the Irish Free State government. On this episode of The Fifth Court, barristers Peter Leonard and Mark Tottenham are joined by historian Dr. Cormac Moore, who explains the secretive, scandal-ridden tale of the Irish Boundary Commission of 1924–25—a political time bomb buried in the Anglo-Irish Treaty.From leaked maps to aborted transfers of land, Dr. Moore lays out how the Commission's quietly explosive findings were suppressed, how the Free State's hopes were dashed, and why the whole affair continues to echo in Irish constitutional law and cross-border politics today.Cormac's cultural reference...a movie 'The Treaty' on YouTube, and he also loves 'Amadeus', the movie.Before that, they examine notable recent court decisions featured on Decisis.ie including:An AI case...artificial insemination that is. A case about bull semen and a woman who, it was claimed, was acting as though she were a vet. The Veterinary Council of Ireland got involved.A defamation case where the wrong person was identified as having been on the tax defaulters list. Qualified privilege did not arise.A case involving a medical practitioner who it was said about him, had a persistent delusional disorder. The Medical Council was on one side.Whether you're in practice or just passionate about the law, this episode is a must-listen for its clarity, depth, and practical relevance.Sponsored by Charltons Solicitors and Collaborative Practitioners – family law with a collaborative approach.

The concept of civil rights in Northern Ireland is as old as the state itself. Established in 1921, the new northern government inherited a deeply divided and disadvantaged society which its practices only served to deepen for half a century. To help us understand the complexities of this period I have enlisted the help and expertise of Dr Cormac Moore. Cormac is a resident historian with Dublin City Council, he is a columnist with the Irish News as well as editing its daily ‘On This Day' segment, and he is the author of several books – the most recent being The Root of All Evil: The Irish Boundary Commission published by Irish Academic Press. I began by asking Cormac his opinion on the extent to which the Unionist government had inherited a deeply imbalanced society which they were incapable of fixing…This episode was produced as part of At the Crossroads: The Campaign for Civil Rights in Northern Ireland, a project developed by The Linen Hall. This project is supported by the Department of Foreign Affairs Reconciliation Fund and has also received financial support from the Northern Ireland Community Relations Council.Send us a textSupport the show

They start by trying to wrap our heads around what a probability really means. Cole introduces us to a recent and attention-grabbing paper on a potential biosignature in the atmosphere of an exoplanet, with lots of statistics along the way. Then, Cormac brings up some counterpoints to this detection. They debate what it would take—statistically and scientifically—for a detection of biosignatures to cross the line from intriguing to compelling.   New Constraints on DMS and DMDS in the Atmosphere of K2-18 b from JWST MIRI https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2041-8213/adc1c8   Are there Spectral Features in the MIRI/LRS Transmission Spectrum of K2-18b? https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.15916   Insufficient evidence for DMS and DMDS in the atmosphere of K2-18 b.

Have you ever felt disappointed by God? Expectations are unmet, plans fail, and circumstances change. In these moments, you might ask, “Where is Jesus?” In Luke 24, Jesus talks with two grieving men who cannot see him. He walks with them, points them to Scripture, and then reveals himself. Even when they could not see him, he was with them. In what area of your life do you need to trust that Jesus is with you even if you cannot see him? MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49468924RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

At least 49 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks. British gastrointestinal surgeon Nick Maynard is currently in Gaza working at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. He spoke to Cormac about treating children who have been shot.

Apply to join us as a co-host! https://astrosoundbites.com/recruiting-2025 This week, Lucia, Cole and Cormac discuss cosmic sandwich kids: intermediate mass black holes. Where are they hiding? How do they form? And can they grow up to become supermassive black holes? To answer questions like these, we take a look at globular cluster simulations and a famous gravitational wave event: GW190521. The discussion takes us to alien civilisations in the far, far future.  From Globs to Gravitational Waves: A Simulated Cosmic Choreography https://astrobites.org/2025/06/19/from-globs-to-gravitational-waves-a-simulated-cosmic-choreography/ Uncovering Precession for GW190521: How the Last Cycle Cracked the Case https://astrobites.org/2025/06/21/precession_gw190521/ Space Sound: https://soundcloud.com/esa/sound-of-a-juice-boom-deploying The clock ticking sound is by “opticalnoise” on freedsound.org (https://freesound.org/people/opticalnoise/sounds/201194/).

"There are no new feelings, just new words." The Irish DJ talks about finding commonality in polarising times, CSD weekend and his podcast, Queerly Beloved. In Berlin, the end of July means one thing: CSD, AKA Christopher Street Day. Commemorating New York's historic Stonewall Riots of 1969, this raucous weekender is a yearly celebration of the queer community and LGBTQIA+ rights. The Irish DJ and podcast host Cormac is committed to documenting queer history. As host of Queerly Beloved, he conducts candid interviews with queer DJs and producers about the music industry, sexuality and mental health. But in this week's RA Exchange, Cormac is the one on the couch. He speaks about growing up gay in a conservative Irish town and navigating homophobic environments as a young person. He found solace in the dance music scene—which he said saved him—but he also found drugs and alcohol, which he used to manage his battle with depression and shame. Many years of substance abuse forced him to go sober and to prioritise his mental health. Cormac said he worried that quitting partying would end his sex life and music career. Instead, it was just the beginning. Over the course of more than two decades, Cormac has accumulated a loving legion of fans as a DJ, known for playing disco, 80s high NRG and flamboyant tunes that he describes as "poppers music." His label Polari—a reference to the secret language used by queer people throughout history—will release his new single, "Gone," on July 25th, with remixes from Ewan Pearson and Fred Terror. It's also raising funds for Berlin and London-based trans charities Casa Kua and Not A Phase. Listen to the episode in full. -Chloe Lula

Jennifer's brother Jason Poole spoke to Cormac.

In part 1 of our summer series centered on the 2025 AIA Conference on Architecture, we discuss Evan's first visit to Boston and share his and Cormac's impressions of the city.Rather than focusing on CEUs or presentations, we explore how the AIA Conference continues to serve as a powerful gathering place for the profession. The serendipity of in-person meetups, the nuance of hallway conversations, and the inspiration found in real-world architecture make it a unique moment in the calendar year.Whether you made it to Boston or not, this episode captures the essence of what makes architectural travel and community engagement so energizing. It's a reminder that often the most meaningful aspects of being an architect happen outside the office—walking the streets of a great city or reconnecting with colleagues over drinks after years apart.Episode Links:Evelyn Lee, FAIA - AIA 2025 PresidentArcolArchistarUpcodesHotel Marcel-----Have a question for the hosts?

Angela joins me for two hours of fun that ends with smart rats sniffing out landmines. But before that we get to America's most dangerous national parks, Cormac from Ireland sharing his countries "anchor baby" solution, a Big Beautiful Bill update and a whole lot more.

Cormac came to Canada from Clonsilla, Dublin in 2010 (one of the few times it wasn't fun to be in Dublin) and has settled into a Canadian banking career over the last 15 years. Cormac is currently an Executive Vice President and Partner at Stonebridge Financial, a Toronto based asset manager.  Since coming to Canada, he has been a player and treasurer with St. Pats GAA and recently chaired the Ireland Funds St. Patrick's Day luncheon coming out of COVID. He's also been known to pull a pint for a I/CAN and support various Irish ex-pat community initiatives across the city. Cormac is a long-time resident of the east end with his wife and Toronto Irish Players secretary, Sue Murphy. When he's not pushing pennies, Cormac enjoys some downtime skiing, golfing, hiking (with Pixie the cockapoo) or preparing for the next Hyrox race.I would still encourage people to download the episodes and to share them with friends and family. Downloads are the easiest indicator for me to gauge how many people I am reaching with these conversations so I would really appreciate it.

The more things change, the more they, uh, change. This episode Cole, Shashank, and Cormac cover the exciting events that change what we see on the night sky. Ancient astronomers tracked the motions of the planets and the arrival of “guest stars” (supernovae), and nowadays we're lucky enough to see some really wild and energetic events. Cormac gives us a view into what happens when a star punches through a black hole's accretion disc, Shashank shows us a particularly persnickety pulsar, and Cole gets his twenty minute monologue on modern classical music cut for time.    Astrobites: This Pulsar Has Mood Swings https://astrobites.org/2025/05/21/this-pulsar-has-mood-swings/   X-treme X-rays in an X-tra young system https://astrobites.org/2025/04/16/x-treme-x-rays-in-an-x-tra-young-system/   Space Sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2_3RgX-RIY&list=PPSV   Gif of Sagittarius A* we mentioned: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0QRpid5_QU

What makes architecture memorable? Why do some spaces hit you in the chest while others feel hollow? In this episode of Archispeak, we explore a concept that's rarely taught but deeply felt. Genius loci. The spirit of the place.From volunteering as a docent at Frank Lloyd Wright's Home and Studio to taking a group of recent grads on an architectural pilgrimage through Chicago, Cormac shares stories that tie memory, mentorship, and emotion to design. Along the way, we discuss how the demands of modern practice often push this spirit aside in favor of speed, budgets, and repeatability.Together, we wrestle with what it means to create architecture that belongs—architecture that understands its context, uplifts the human experience, and becomes part of the emotional fabric of our lives. If you've ever stood in a space and simply felt something you couldn't explain, this one's for you.-----Have a question for the hosts?

Cormac runs walking tours along the Cliffs of Moher and all over the Burren in County Clare, one of our favorite places in Ireland. Name an -ology and Cormac probably studied it, and he brings his love of science to his love of Ireland with him on every walk he leads.On this episode, we speak with Cormac about really getting to know a place deeply; ecological wrong turns and the unnatural Irish landscape; the impact of consumer culture and how to separate needs from wants; and how he is working on building a life so that if tourism vanishes, he can still live in his favorite place. Much like our previous guests, Cormac also imparts some valuable life advice: “Time is all we have, so retain a sense of humor and try not to be a dick.”Dyed Green is a project of Bog & Thunder, whose mission is to highlight the best of Irish food and culture, through food tours, events, and media.
