Send us a textIn this episode, I chat with Tom Muckian about Roe River Books, a thriving independent bookshop in Dundalk, Ireland. The name itself carries a powerful story of resistance. Tom deliberately named his shop after the world's shortest river as a symbolic counterpoint to Amazon, the world's longest. "I want to be the polar opposite of what Amazon represents," he explains. "I want to be about people and community and recommending books, not algorithms."Most compelling is Tom's perspective on what makes a great bookseller—understanding that it's not about individual expertise but creating a collective team that connects with readers. "Maybe you don't become a great bookseller individually, but as a collective in a bookshop, as a team, you can become a great bookselling team."Whether you're passionate about books, interested in Irish culture, or curious about the future of independent retail, Tom's story reminds us why physical bookshops remain vital cultural touchstones in our increasingly digital world.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/2376qekw Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Harris Harris 'le leanacht' ag stocaireacht ar son John McGahon sa Lú. Fine Gael leader Simon Harris has said that he will continue to lobby for his party's candidate in the Louth Constituency, Senator John McGahon, despite the concerns expressed by both Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin. Tá sé ráite ag ceannaire Fhine Gael Simon Harris, go leanfaidh sé ar aghaidh ag stocaireacht ar son iarrthóir a pháirtí i nDáilcheantar Lú, an Seanadóir John McGahon, ainneoin na himní atá léirithe ag Fianna Fáil agus Sinn Féin araon. John McGahon was found not guilty in a 2022 trial of physically assaulting Breen White outside a pub in County Louth and the Sunday Times newspaper published photographs of Breen White's injuries today. Fuarthas John McGahon neamhchiontach i dtriail i 2022 as ionsaí fisiciúil ar Breen White taobh amuigh de thábhairne i gContae Lú agus d'fhoilsigh an nuachtán an Sunday Times grianghraif de ghortuithe Breen White inniu. Simon Harris said the images and videos from security systems were part of the evidence in the criminal trial but the jury found Senator McGahon not guilty. Dúirt Simon Harris gur chuid den fhianaise sa triail choiriúil iad na h-íomhánna agus na físeáin ó chórais slándála ach go bhfuair giúiré an Seanadóir McGahon neamhchiontach. Earlier today Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin said: "It seems that the victim in this case did not get the response that he should have received. Níos luaithe inniu dúirt ceannaire Fhianna Fáil Micheál Martin: "Is cosúil nach bhfuair an t-íospartach sa chás seo an freagra a cheapfaí a ba cheart dó a fháil. And I think that the matter is serious and that it is a matter for Fine Gael of course." Agus ceapaim go bhfuil an tábhar tromchúiseach agus gur ceist do Fhine Gael é ar ndóigh." Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald described what happened outside the pub as "violent" and "brutal" and questioned how Simon Harris could support John McGahon as a candidate. "Foréigneach" agus "brúidiúíl" an cur síos a rinne ceannaire Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald ar an méid a tharla taobh amuigh den teach tábhairne agus cheistigh sí conas a d'fhéadfadh Simon Harris tacú le John McGahon mar iarrthóir. However, the deputy leader of Fine Gael, Helen McEntee said that she also supports the Senator - that the courts have dealt with the matter and it is noteworthy that he claimed that he was defending himself. Dúirt leascheannaire Fhine Gael, Helen McEntee áfach go dtacaíonn sise chomh maith leis an Seanadóir - gur phléigh na cúirteanna leis an ábhar agus gur díol suntais gur mhaígh sé gur á chosaint féin a bhí sé. Although John McGahon was found not guilty in a criminal trial, he was found 65% responsible for damages in a subsequent civil case. Cé go bhfuarthas John McGahon neamhchiontach i dtriail choiriúil, fuarthas 65 faoin gcéad freagrach as damáistí é i gcás sibhialta ina dhiaidh sin. The High Court ordered him to pay €39,000 to Breen White. D'ordaigh an Ardchúirt dó €39,000 a íoc le Breen White. Breen White told the Sunday Times today that he is disappointed that John McGahon was chosen as Fine Gael's candidate. Dúirt Breen White leis an Sunday Times inniu go bhfuil díomá air gur roghnaíodh John McGahon mar le bheith ina iarrthóir ag Fine Gael.

The first rule of fairy gifts is you don't talk about fairy gifts. Chris and Simon recklessly flout that rule in this look at artifacts stolen from or given by the fairies to human neighbours. Some are exotic, like The Luck of Edenhall and the Fairy Flag of Dunvegan. Others, like elf shot and tiny tobacco pipes, are common field finds. Chris waxes lyrical about fairy textiles, and the connection between Huldrefolk bridal crowns and the Virgin Mary. Simon shoe-horns in a discussion of tiny footwear said to be made by leprechauns, some of which, worringly, show signs of wear. And what about that ‘leprechaun suit' from County Louth? And should you ever amputate a fairy foot? (Only if you have arthritis...). Our Facebook group is here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1396529487421974

Brian McMahon comes from Dundalk in County Louth, just north of Dublin. 13 years ago, not so long after Brian's father passed away, he digitalised a family photograph from the 1960's, and to his delight was amazed by the quality of the newly digitalised image but also the nostalgia that he had managed to encapsulate online. Since then, Brian has digitalised over 3000 images, adverts and articles of Dublin and Ireland, posting them on his blog; Brand New Retro or in his monthly column in Totally Dublin magazine. For a long time I've wanted to talk to someone about how the culture of Dublin has changed and evolved over the years, and when I got to know Brian, I thought he was the perfect guy to speak to. We chat about music, nightlife, opportunities and a lot more.If you are interested in seeing old images of IIreland and the people who lived here then I really recommend checking out Brian's blog, Brand New Retro.

TNWAC President Patrick Ryan spoke with her about the business interests connecting Ireland and Tennessee and the wider United States, political developments in Ireland and the European Union and the special relationship between Ireland and the United States and the historical connections to Tennessee. Ambassador Geraldine Byrne Nason assumed her role as Ireland's 19th Ambassador to the United States in August 2022. Geraldine was Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Ireland to the United Nations in New York (2017- 22). Previously, she served as Ambassador to France (2014-17), Second Secretary General in the Department of the Taoiseach (Prime Minister) (2011-14), Ambassador and Ireland's Deputy Permanent Representative to the EU (2005-11)), and Director of the National Forum on Europe (2004-05). During her career, Ambassador Byrne Nason has served in Brussels, New York, Paris, Vienna and Helsinki. As Second Secretary-General in the Department of the Taoiseach from 2011-2014, she was the highest ranking female public servant in Ireland. During that period, she also was Secretary General of Ireland's Economic Management Council. On her arrival in New York, Ambassador Byrne Nason led Ireland's successful campaign for a seat on the United Nations Security Council, and led the New York Security Council team for the 2021-2022 term.

Tasting NotesWhen John Teeling converted an industrial alcohol plant in County Louth into what became "Cooley" distillery in the late 80s, the seeds were planted for the revival of Irish whiskey. Kilbeggan, Tyrconnell, and Connemara all sprung forth, as well as a slew of barrels for smaller brands to grow and experiment. Post-Beam Suntory acquiring Cooley and the brands, the second generation of Teelings went to work on founding their eponymous whiskey company. Today, happily aging and bubbling away in downtown Dublin, the Teeling Whiskey Co. is still owned by John and Stephen, but with a 40% stake by Bacardi, the whiskey has grown its global presence. Presumably, the brand began life from older Cooley stocks, finished in ex-rum casks and bottled non-chill filtered at 92 proof. The nose is an explosion of fruit and malt with a rich cereal grain and sweet tropical fruit note emerging. On the palate more malt, sweet spice, and a treacly, syrupy rum-soaked spice cake. The finish is long, sweet, and simply pleasurable.
Explore two of Europe's less-crowded scenic peninsulas! Rick visits with local tour guides from Pula, on Croatia's Istrian Peninsula, and from Ireland's Cooley Peninsula, an hour north of Dublin in County Louth.

Michael speaks to County Louth man Tim Herlihy about his new Irish whiskey called Lost Irish.Tim is an Irish whiskey expert and has traveled the globe crafting his trade in the industry and developing Lost Irish. The concept behind Lost Irish will resonate with many emigrants as it tells the story of the 70 million Irish diasporas spread across the world.

This week, Irish family band, THE CORRS, joins me for an interview. They're an outfit that combines pop rock with traditional Irish themes. The group consists of the Corr siblings, Andrea, Sharon, Caroline and Jim who all hail from Dundalk, County Louth, Ireland. The Corrs have released seven studio albums and numerous singles, which have reached platinum in many countries, and have sold 40 million albums worldwide. SHARON CORR joins us to tell us all about what The Corrs are up to today and fill us in about her own solo projects. We're also going to check in with ROLAND KENT LAVOIE. No idea who that is right? Well, think 'Me and You and A Dog Named Boo'. The artist is much better known to us as LOBO. Today Lobo is semi-retired and living in Florida with an incredible life story to share - one where he talks about always shunning fame and fortune in favour for being able to mow his lawns anonymously, Founded in 1964, English rock band, the Strawberry Hill Boys quickly became known as THE STRAWBS. The band played folk rock, progressive rock, and (briefly) glam rock. Best known for their hit "Part of the Union", Strawbs toured with Supertramp in their "Crime of the Century" tour. We catch up with guitarist CHAS CRONK for a walk down memory lane. He tells us all about serendipity and success and gives us the lowdown on his very first solo album that's been recently released.

Our Story This is a story of a cheerful, fearless farmhand named Fred who lived in the Fens, the marshy, bogs of East Anglia. He was at home in himself and on the land, and that attracted the jealousy of the other young men on the farm. This story, inspired by a tale called "The Syleham Lamps," collected in https://amzn.to/3RQ34xs (Kirsty Hartsiotis's Suffolk Folk Tales), features the mysterious will-o'-the-wisps, the mysterious marsh lights that appear over the bogs of the Fens in eastern England. Our Guest Robyn Watt is an animist teacher and practitioner in the traditions of the British Isles. She offers programs for somatic nature connection, and soul and ancestor-tending in the field of the animist healing arts. After moving to Canada from the UK, Robyn navigated the experience of grieving for her homeland by reclaiming the ancient animist cosmologies of her ancestry. Through this, she came into the work of guiding others who also long to reconnect to their ancestral wisdom traditions from far away. Find Robyn at sacredearthgrove.com, in her online community oursacredcircles.com & on Instagram @sacred.earth.grove Our Conversation Robyn begins with an invocation of the ancestors and the land as she tells a story inspired by the counties of Suffolk and Norfolk, where she grew up and where her family has lived for centuries. What it means to live in North America and feel the call back to ancestral homelands. Robyn describes it as a wounding but also considers the gift of reconnection that follows the pain of disconnection. Animism upholds the sentience and aliveness of the world. It is rooted in the ancient understanding that the world can and wants to communicate with us is something that many modern people know in their bones, even before they know the word. Animism is a powerful way to cope with environmental crisis and climate anxiety. The perennial struggle of nature versus civilization, as embodied by Fred and his struggle with the other stable boys Disney brought the will o' the wisps to popular consciousness in the movie Brave. As imperfect as Disney is, there's magic in the way modern retellings give us access to the ancient in a vital way The Fens were also home to Queen Boudicca's Iceni tribe Resources and sources of inspiration: artist and author Katie Holton's work with the Ardee Bog in County Louth; Francis Pryor's book https://amzn.to/3ra8Kqb (The Fens: Discovering England's Ancient Depths); Philip Pullman's novel https://amzn.to/3Syz74Y (The Secret Commonwealth.) The scientific explanation for the marshlights or “ignis fatuus”: they are created by the oxidation of gasses produced by organic decay that cause photon emissions. But also… it's magic!
