The Hunger Strikes had led to a surge in support for Republicanism and in October 1984, Margaret Thatcher herself, narrowly escaped death in the Brighton bombing. Her intelligence chiefs were clear; they weren't going to defeat the IRA by purely military and security means – she decided something had to be done. Meanwhile in Dublin, fears over the rise of Sinn Féin and frustration with a lack of progress in advancing nationalists' interests led to an openness to fresh ideas. The stage was set for secret talks which led to the Anglo-Irish Agreement, signed on the 15 November 1985. Ulster's Unionists were outraged by what they saw as a betrayal. What was the background to the agreement, why was it so controversial, and what did it really involve? Ciarán Dunbar is joined by Professor Fergal Cochrane, commentator, Alex Kane, Professor Graham Walker, and Dr. Peter McLaughlin. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jonathan Walton describes himself as a ‘con-hunter' but that's not what he set out to be. The tv producer turned vigilante after he was scammed by con artist Marianne Smyth, the so-called ‘Queen of Con'. Over several years he had handed his supposed best friend Smyth, who claimed to be an Irish heiress, over $100,000. She was a lifelong con-artist, using a range of strategies, lies and aliases – posing as Jennifer Anniston, becoming a satanic priestess, claiming to be on the IRA's army council, pretending to have cancer. Smyth was sentenced in September to 4 years in jail at Downpatrick crown court as it was revealed that she had scammed over £100,000 from people in Northern Ireland. Jonathan Walton has written a book on his experience with the fraudster. It's called ‘ Anatomy of a Con Artist: The 14 Red Flags to Spot Scammers, Grifters, and Thieves and is host of the hit podcast Queen of the Con, he joined Ciarán Dunbar on the BelTel.

The Fethard-on-Sea Boycott was a notorious event in Irish history. In 1957, Sheila Cloney, the Protestant wife of a Catholic farmer, fled her home with her children. Associates of Ian Paisley hid Sheila and her children in Belfast before eventually getting them to Scotland. Sheila Cloney left the Wexford village after refusing to bow to the demands of the local Catholic clergy to educate her daughter as Catholics. In response, the priests launched a boycott of Fethard's Protestant shopkeepers and farmers. Tim Fanning tells Ciarán Dunbar the story of Sheila Cloney of the boycott of Protestants in Fethard-on-Sea. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Rev Ian Paisley rose to prominence as the face of hardline unionism but the first time some would have heard of him would have been in connection with Maura Lyons. In 1956, the west Belfast teenager was smuggledto Scotland by members of the Free Presbyterian Church. She was a 15-year-old Catholic girl who converted to Free Presbyterianism, in the face of the strong objections of her family. They accused the Rev Ian Paisley of “abduction”. At one point, he gathered his supporters in the Ulster Hall to listen to a recording of Maura's voice at the Ulster Hall, renouncing her Catholic faith as a “religion of fear and dread”. Ciarán Dunbar is joined by journalist Malachi O'Doherty, who grew up in west Belfast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

According to a report by the Equality Commission, Flags and sectarian grievances are ‘hindering NI boxing'. The review comes after boxer Daryl Clarke claimed he was excluded from Northern Ireland's 2022 Commonwealth Games team because of his identity.

Soldier F has been cleared of two murders on Bloody Sunday. A judge in Belfast has ruled the evidence against the veteran fell below the standard needed. Soldier F was found not guilty of the murders of James Wray and William McKinney both shot dead by soldiers on January 30,1972. He was also cleared of attempting to murder Michael Quinn, Patrick O'Donnell, Joseph Friel, Joe Mahon, and an unknown person. He had pleaded not guilty to the seven counts. Predictably, the verdict has divided opinions. Ciarán Dunbar is joined by the Belfast Telegraph's security correspondent, Allison Morris. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Hunger Strike of 1981 saw a surge in violence that left scores killed. With no end to the Troubles imaginable and Sinn Féin emerging as a serious electoral force, constitutional nationalism decided it had to do something. Taoiseach Garrett Fitzgerald and the SDLP leader John Hume had a meeting of minds resulting in The New Ireland Forum. What does the Forum recommend? Was it more than just a talking shop? And did it lead to the later Anglo-Irish Agreement? Ciarán Dunbar spoke to historian Séan Ó Duibhir. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Key Points Seadon experienced his first Grand mal seizure at age three, lasting over 20 minutes, with medical staff initially believing he would suffer brain damage from the prolonged episode.Medical professionals prescribed benzodiazepines which reduced seizure frequency and severity but required continuous dose increases as Seadon continued having seizures for four years.By age seven, Seadon was taking the maximum benzodiazepine dose equivalent to an 18-19 year old but still experiencing seizures, prompting consultation with alternative neurologists.Memory impairment was identified as a significant side effect of the benzodiazepine medication, causing Seadon to forget basic daily tasks and potentially creating permanent cognitive damage.Research into natural alternatives consistently pointed to cannabis as the only viable option, though specific dosing and cultivation information was extremely limited at the time.Pharmaceutical shortage crisis forced an immediate decision when Seadon's medication became unavailable, with Health Canada offering three replacement drugs including ones with suicide risk and irreversible liver damage.Cannabis treatment began with a one-to-one CBD-THC tincture obtained from a veteran's prescription, starting with low doses while simultaneously weaning off benzodiazepines.Seadon achieved complete seizure freedom for 11 years using a customized cannabis regimen of 20-to-1 CBD-THC ratio during daytime and 1-to-1 ratio at nighttime.Memory function significantly improved after transitioning from pharmaceuticals to cannabis, contradicting common misconceptions about cannabis effects on developing brains.Legal prescription acquisition took over 18 months due to reluctance from healthcare providers to treat pediatric patients, eventually obtained through a questionable cannabis clinic charging $2,000 annually.Medical establishment resistance continued even after successful treatment, with neurologists refusing prescription renewals despite 100% seizure control and excluding Seadon from cannabis epilepsy studies.Family doctor refused to write cannabis prescriptions despite supporting the treatment results, ultimately involving legal counsel when challenged about patient rights violations.EduCanNation nonprofit was founded in 2020 to standardize cannabis education and provide proper guidance to patients, addressing the lack of reliable information and support systems.Organization connects certified cannabis educators who are primarily former patients, aiming to share evidence-based knowledge and prevent others from experiencing similar healthcare navigation challenges.

Sokat hallani mostanság a „patriarchátusról”, amely évezredeken át volt az emberi közösségek hatékony szervező logikája. Kalauzunk a témában Dávid-Barrett Tamás, aki alaposan kikutatta a kérdéskört: nagyívű könyvet írt ennek a letűnőben lévő „technológiának” a természetrajzáról. Ebben az epizódban az Oxfordban tanító viselkedéstudóssal beszélgetek a csimpánzok társadalmáról, monogámiáról és poliamoriáról, a bizonytalan múltról és a kiszámítható jövőről, az életről meg mindenről.
What happens when the hustle finally breaks you?In this episode, I sit down with my friend Dr. Cassandre Dunbar—physician, podcaster, and wellness advocate—for a vulnerable convo about what burnout really looks like. We talk about the emotional exhaustion that sneaks in, the guilt and shame nobody talks about, and how burnout ain't just about being tired, it's your whole system shutting down.I open up about how things got dark for me recently, how I crashed, and what I'm learning about boundaries, emotional rest, and what real recovery actually takes. Cass brings the warmth and the wisdom, helping me unpack all of it in a way that's raw, honest, and healing.If you've been feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like you're barely holding it together—this one's for you.
In this thought-provoking episode of Inside Personal Growth, host Greg Voisen welcomes back psychologist and author Dustin Dunbar to discuss his groundbreaking new novel, Her Holiness. Inspired by strong women in his own life and a deep exploration of spirituality, Dustin imagines the rise of the first female pope—while addressing broader questions about gender, faith, and the balance of masculine and feminine energy. Through personal stories, reflections on history, and spiritual insights, Dustin explores the challenges of tradition, the promise of equality, and the healing power of feminine energy in both religion and society. His message is clear: to move forward as a world, we must embrace compassion, balance, and inclusivity.
Retired social worker Jack Kammer (MaleFriendly Media) joins me to separate real men's issues from the manosphere circus—and map a sane path forward.Most conversations about men mistake the pyramid for the whole picture. Yes, a few at the top feast—but millions grind at the bottom. In this episode, retired social worker Jack Kammer and I dismantle lazy patriarchy takes, unpack mating market math (power laws, hypergamy, real options vs imagined ones), and contrast male hierarchy with the female network—a “heart-centered” power structure that's present but hard to see. We trace how wealth-induced social isolation (sprawl, cars, planned hangouts) erodes trust, why “work-life balance” collapses under the burden of performance, and how honesty about desire, capacity, and family roles beats quota-based fantasies. The fix isn't rage—it's community at Dunbar scale, merit with compassion, and finishing the other half of the gender-role revolution: giving men social permission for relationship labor, not just income labor. No villains. Just truth, trade-offs, and a way to rebuild.TL;DR* Apex fallacy: don't judge men by the 0.1%—see the “Misfortune Five Million.”* Two power systems: men = visible hierarchy; women = diffuse heart-centered network.* Isolation tax: the McMansion dream kills accidental community—connection needs proximity.* Work is not separate from life: entrepreneurs blur lines; corporate men carry the performance burden.* Real reform: finish the 1960s shift—normalize men taking relationship/care roles without penalty.* Strategy > slogans: meritocracy plus flexibility; transparency about intentions in dating and at work.Memorable lines“Don't look at the Fortune 500—look at the Misfortune Five Million.”“The female power structure isn't a skyscraper; it's a campus with a heart at the center.”“Community isn't a social program; it's your neighbors knocking for Friday pizza.”GuestJack Kammer — Retired social worker focused on the social issues of men and boys; founder of MaleFriendly Media.https://www.linkedin.com/in/malefriendlymedia/https://www.malefriendlymedia.com/Why this mattersIf you want stronger men, healthier women, and better kids, stop arguing abstractions and design for reality: smaller, closer communities; honest courtship; flexible pathways for fathers; merit with compassion at work.Call to ActionIf this hit—don't scroll past it.
