What's Sherlock Holmes doing in New York's most Fenian pub?That's the intrigue at the heart of Terror From America: A Sherlock HolmesAdventure, the debut novel from journalist and historian Terry Golway, and thequestion Irish Stew podcast cohosts Martin Nutty and John Lee set out to answerbefore a packed, raucous house at Ernie O'Malley's on the first of June.A Staten Island native with a Ph.D. in U.S. history from Rutgers and two decadesof political reporting at the New York Observer, Golway has written more than adozen acclaimed works of nonfiction. But fiction, he tells us, unlocks somethingfacts alone cannot: "You can learn as much about history through a novel as youcan in a history book."His novel imagines Britain dispatching the world's greatest detective to infiltratethe Irish American revolutionary underground of 1885 New York, a missionrooted in a real and largely forgotten chapter of history. "The original crime isbased on something that actually happened," Golway explains. "Several IrishAmericans were going to try to blow up London Bridge…instead they blewthemselves up."Holmes's investigation pulls him into the orbit of real historical figures, nonemore compelling than John Devoy. In a dramatic reading brought brilliantly tolife by actor Mick Mellamphy, Devoy records in his diary what Charles Parnellhad told him when they met: "The American people are now the arbiters of theIrish question,” to which Devoy replied, "I almost had tears in my eyes when Iheard those words. That was exactly what we in New York wished to be, thearbiters of the Irish question."And what does Holmes make of the Fenians he encounters? After infiltrating NewYork's Irish revolutionary underground as an itinerant fiddler at Clan na Gaelgatherings, Sherlock observed, "The Fenians who inhabit the back rooms of NewYork's clubhouses and taverns bear little resemblance to the crude caricaturesportrayed in some less reputable newspapers. Formidable not because of theircapacity for mayhem, but because of the power they yield over the production ofmemories."Fiddler Eileen McLain provided the evening's musical accents while MickMellamphy served as producer. Past Irish Stew guests Peter Quinn, Larry Kirwan,and Maura Clare were in the house as were Black 47 co-founder Chris Byrne andIrish American Writers & Artists president Liza Engesser.LINKSTERRY GOLWAYWebsiteSubstack: ObserverLinkedInBook: Terror From AmericaAmazon: Terror From AmericaERNIE O'MALLEY'SWebsiteIRISH STEW LINKSWebsite Home PageFacebookInstagramLinkedInMedia Partner: IrishCentralEpisode Details: Season 8, Episode 19; Total Episode Count: 160Send us Fan Mail
Kneecap is an Irish hip-hop group comprised of three members: Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap, and DJ Próvaí. The band's beats are pretty intense, and their lyrics are fierce and as political as they come. Kneecap joined us to talk about their new record Fenian, how they've been influenced by Irish rebel music, starring in a film about themselves, and more!See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Vivimos en la era de los posicionamientos. Exigimos a los artistas que no se mantengan al margen, que se pronuncien sobre los problemas que nos afectan a todos y lo hagan con honestidad. Kneecap no entiende otra forma de hacer arte, cueste lo que cueste. Su oposición al poder y el uso de la música como herramienta de disidencia constituyen la esencia de su propuesta, y eso es precisamente lo que define ‘FENIAN’, su nuevo disco. Además, Igor Fernández, director de El Jueves, responde a nuestro cuestionario cultural en FAQ!

Our guest this week is KNEECAP. The Belfast rap trio have become one of the most thrilling and provocative acts to emerge from Ireland in years, known for their sharp, politically charged lyricism, chaotic energy, and unapologetic celebration of the Irish language. Their self-titled film earned widespread critical acclaim, and an infamous Coachella set last year cemented their status as one of the most electrifying live acts in the world. This week, they release their brand new album FENIAN. On today's episode, Mo Chara joins us to talk about recording the album during one of the band's wildest stretches yet, what first drew him into making music, and why the celebration of native languages sits at the heart of everything Kneecap do.KNEECAP : Instagram / Spotify / WebsiteVisit our official website here and follow us across our socials.
Il giornalista e l'assassino di Janet Malcolm è un classico del reportage narrativo che esplora la zona grigia tra chi scrive e chi viene raccontato. Al Mast di Bologna sono in mostra i lavori rigorosi e nitidissimi dei fotografi tedeschi Bernd & Hilla Becher. Fenian è il titolo del nuovo album degli irlandesi Kneecap che mescolano hip hop e Edm per lanciare un forte messaggio politico.

“Kneecap was born out of this need to represent the identity of young people who speak Irish in the city, an identity a lot of people around the world wouldn't know exists,” says Móglaí Bap of Irish hip-hop trio Kneecap. “When I was growing up, you wouldn't have seen the language on mainstream radio or BBC1 or in the cinemas, so as a teenager it wouldn't have been that cool to speak Irish. So Kneecap was part of pushing that boundary and seeing what we could do, and also having a bit of craic, as we say.” In the lead up to their powerful new album, Fenian, Móglaí and bandmate Mo Chara joined me via Zoom for an in-depth discussion of their history. They talked about how the project evolved from being something they did initially for laughs and to get free tickets to festivals into a part of their larger fight against the marginalization of the Irish-language, of which they're native speakers, and their desire to raise awareness of the harms caused by colonialism worldwide. We also discussed their childhood: Moglai's memories of hearing his mother play traditional Irish music on her concertina, Mo Chara's teenage experiences learning Oasis and Stone Roses songs on guitar at a Belfast youth club, how they found each other within the Irish-language community and started making music together, and how their approach to Kneecap has evolved since then. For the uninitiated, in addition to listening to Fenian and their previous album, Fine Art, I also highly recommend watching the biographical film Kneecap, which is funny and dramatic and poignant and a mix of fact and fiction, starring the band as themselves. It's awesome and it's available on Netflix, Apple TV and beyond.

The Great Fenian EscapeFor as long as the English have occupied Ireland there have been political prisoners. As long as there have been political prisoners there have been daring and ingenious escapes. In the most recent period of conflict it is estimated that around 100 republicans participated in escapes, including the great escape from the H-Blocks in 1983. That was the biggest ever in British penal history. Others tunnelled their way out; clambered over walls; escaped in a helicopter; shot their way out; blew a hole in a wall; hid in a bin lorry or dressed as priests or in one case as a woman. I was a Samuel Beckett type of escapee. I failed. But I never gave up. I failed better. Moore Street Trust calls on State to buy Moore St. TerraceThis Friday, 24 April, is the date 110 years ago when the Irish Volunteers and the Irish Citizen Army launched the Easter Rising. They published the 1916 Proclamation and proclaimed a Republic. For six days a small band of Irish rebels took on the might of the British Empire. Ard Fheis 2026 in BelfastThis weekend the Sinn Féin Ard Fheis will be held in the ICC Waterfront Hall in Belfast.

his weekend, the National Museum of Ireland will unveil a remarkable piece of history as the famous Catalpa Flag goes on public display to mark the 150th anniversary of the daring Fenian rescue mission. The flag, the largest in the national collection, played a pivotal role in one of the most dramatic prison breaks of the 19th century—an event with strong Clare connections. Alan Morrissey chatted about this with Brenda Malone, Curator of Military History at the National Museum of Ireland on Friday's Morning Focus. Photo (c) National Museum of Ireland Facebook
On the 18th and 19th of April, the National Museum of Ireland will host a limited time exhibition at Collins Barracks to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Catalpa rescue mission.The mission involved the rescue of six Irish Fenians from a British penal colony in western Australia in April 1876 by a US whaling ship. After their rescue, the Fenians, who had been transported to Australia on the last convict ship, were brought safely to New York, much to the annoyance of the British who tried to intercept them as they sailed away.To discuss this and the exhibition, Seán is joined by Brenda Malone, Curator of Military History at the National Museum of Ireland.Image: National Museum of Ireland

En los últimos meses se ha hablado más de KNEECAP por sus choques con la justicia y el poder que por su música. Ahora, los guerreros del rap regresan al frente sonoro con 'Liars Tale', un explosivo tema punk-rave con el que anuncian 'FENIAN', su nuevo disco, previsto para finales de abril. Con este título, KNEECAP se reapropian de un término históricamente cargado para resignificarlo y reafirmar la esencia de su proyecto: la resistencia cultural, la defensa del idioma irlandés y un espíritu abiertamente combativo frente al poder.Además, Nerea Pérez de las Heras se asoma a nuestro cuestionario cultural en FAQ!

On three occasions, Charles Dickens would speak in Dublin. Each time huge crowds came to hear him speak in the Rotunda, with the crowds spilling out into Sackville Street and well beyond. A Christmas Carol was the highlight of all three tours. Beyond his readings, Dickens also wrote interesting letters from the city, comparing it favourably to London and Edinburgh. There was once a time when Dublin even had street names taken from the world of Dickens.
Fiorentina has arrived at the unenviable point of the season at which the only way to plumb new depths involves picking up a shovel, and the Viola are sure enough looking for the right tool. Two-thirds of your favorite Fiorentina podcast idiots are here to wonder where it's all gone wrong (everywhere) and wonder if it's going to get better (lol). This one's coming out a little late due to some technical issues on the back end so we're reaching all the way back to the last couple of games these bozos played: a brief moment of sunshine against Sigma Olomouc that made the subsequent crash-and-burn at Roma all the more painful. As we, like every other fan, look around like Vincent Vega to find a scapegoat, at least we get some classic, brusque-as-hell Philadelphia descriptions from McMike; some lolMets despair from Producer Mike; and a shot at Tito's Fenian shortcomings.

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closing of Fenian's Pub after nearly 28 years of serving this incredible community. Since opening our doors, we have been honored to be a place where friends gathered, memories were made, and the spirit of Jackson was celebrated. We want to express our deepest gratitude to everyone who has supported us over the years. Your loyalty, laughter, and friendship have meant the world to us. Though this chapter is coming to an end, the memories we've shared will last a lifetime. Thank you for being a part of the Fenian's Pub family. Our last day will be Tuesday, September 10, so come out and join us one more time for some hearty food, stout libations, and just a few more salutations! With sincere appreciation, The Fenian's Pub Team
Gerry Fitt was once political giant, but he ended up in obscurity, sitting in the House of Lords as a baron. Once described as ‘Fenian Fitt' he ended up with more unionist views, derided as ‘Fitt the Brit'. Who really was Gerry Fitt and what is the story behind his political journey? Ciarán Dunbar is joined by Dr Michael A Murphy, author of ‘Gerry Fitt, a Political chameleon' and by Dr Sarah Campbell, author of Gerry Fitt and the SDLP: 'In a Minority of One'. Hosted on Acast.

In this interview, he discusses his new book The Land War in Ireland: Famine, Philanthropy and Moonlighting (Cork UP, 2023), a collection of interconnected essays on different aspects of agrarian agitation in 1870s and 1880s Ireland. The Land War in Ireland addresses perceived lacunae in the historiography of the Land War in late nineteenth-century Ireland, particularly deficiencies or omissions relating to the themes of the title: famine, humanitarianism, and the activities of agrarian secret societies, commonly referred to as Moonlighting. The famine that afflicted the country in 1879–80, one generation removed from the catastrophic Great Famine of the 1840s, prompted different social responses. The wealthier sectors of society, their consciousness and humanitarianism awakened, provided the bulk of the financial and administrative support for the famine-stricken peasantry. Others, drawn from the same broad social stratum as the latter, vented their anger and frustration on the government and the landlords, whom they blamed for the crisis. The concern of marginal men and women for the welfare of their less fortunate brethren was not so much the antithesis of altruism, as a different, more rudimentary way of expressing it.The volume's opening chapter introduces the famine that tormented Ireland's Atlantic seaboard counties in the late 1870s and early 1880s. The four chapters that follow develop the famine theme, concentrating on the role of civic and religious relief agencies, and the local and international humanitarian response to appeals for assistance. The 1879–80 famine kindled benevolence among the diasporic Irish and the charitable worldwide, but it also provoked a more primal reaction, and the book's two closing chapters are devoted to the activities of secret societies. The first features the incongruously named Royal Irish Republic, a neo-Fenian combination in north-west County Cork. The volume's concluding essay links history and literature, positing a connection between agrarian secret society activity during the Land War years and the Kerry playwright George Fitzmaurice's neglected 1914 drama The Moonlighter. This original and engaging work makes a significant contribution to our understanding of modern Irish history and literature. Aidan Beatty is a lecturer in history at Carnegie Mellon University.

To the Dublin press, the American Civil War veterans in Dublin cut an unusual shape. These ‘Yankee' characters looked different, but they also behaved differently. Under the direction of Captain Thomas J. Kelly, these men would be centrally important to the Fenian uprising of 1867. While history remembers this as a skirmish on a hill in Tallaght, much more happened in March 1867 than that.
This Day in Legal History: Canada CreatedOn March 29, 1867, a pivotal moment in legal and political history unfolded as the British Parliament passed the British North America Act, laying the groundwork for a united and independent Dominion of Canada. This act was a monumental step, not just for the territories involved, but for the concept of nation-building and governance in the 19th century. It provided a structured constitution for Canada, which at the time, united the provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the Canada province (which was subsequently divided into Ontario and Quebec) under a single federal government. This legislative move was pivotal in defining Canada's national identity and sovereignty.The British North America Act, also known as the Constitution Act of 1867, is celebrated for introducing a federal system of government, allocating specific powers to the provinces and others to the federal government, a structure that has endured and evolved. It also established the bicameral legislature comprising the House of Commons and the Senate, adopting a parliamentary system modelled after that of the United Kingdom. This act not only marked the legal birth of Canada but also set a precedent for the peaceful transition of power and the creation of new nations through legislative means.The passage of this act was the culmination of a series of conferences and negotiations among the leaders of the British North American colonies, reflecting a mature and collaborative approach to nationhood. It addressed the pressing need for a united front in the face of external threats and internal discord, particularly the Fenian raids and the threat of American expansionism. When the act took effect on July 1, 1867, it did not merely create a new country; it established a framework for democracy, rights, and governance that Canadians continue to build upon. This legislation stands as a testament to the enduring values of unity, cooperation, and self-governance, marking March 29 as a day of significant legal and historical importance in the creation of the Dominion of Canada.The U.S. is facing a growing legal dispute over nuclear waste storage, likely headed for the Supreme Court, following conflicting appellate court decisions regarding the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) authority to license two proposed storage facilities. The most recent decision from the Fifth Circuit Court vacated a license for Holtec International to store spent nuclear fuel in New Mexico, similar to an earlier ruling against a Texas facility by Interim Storage Partners (ISP). These decisions oppose a prior ruling from the District of Columbia Circuit, which approved the ISP facility's license, highlighting a significant legal split.Holtec and ISP, along with government support, are expected to challenge the Fifth Circuit's decisions, suggesting a Supreme Court review could overturn them. This legal stalemate underscores the challenges of finding a solution for the 86,000 metric tons of nuclear waste stored across 33 states. Efforts to establish a permanent site have been stalled, notably with the withdrawal from the Yucca Mountain project, leading to temporary storage proposals. The Supreme Court's potential involvement could resolve the legal impasse and address the broader issue of nuclear waste management in the U.S.US Efforts to Store Nuclear Waste Poised for High Court ReviewSam Bankman-Fried, the founder of the now-defunct FTX cryptocurrency exchange, was sentenced to 25 years in prison for a fraud involving $8 billion stolen from customers, marking a significant moment in his rapid fall from grace. U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan in Manhattan imposed the sentence after finding Bankman-Fried guilty of seven fraud and conspiracy charges related to FTX's 2022 collapse, rejecting the defense's claims that customers did not lose money and deeming Bankman-Fried unremorseful. Despite apologizing for the impact on customers and colleagues, Bankman-Fried did not admit to criminal actions and plans to appeal both his conviction and sentence.The sentencing reflects the severe consequences of defrauding investors and customers in the financial industry, underscoring the message from U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland about the accountability awaiting those who commit financial crimes. Kaplan highlighted the significant losses incurred by FTX customers, equity investors, and lenders to the Alameda Research hedge fund, founded by Bankman-Fried, totaling over $11 billion in losses. This led to an $11 billion forfeiture order to compensate the victims.Prosecutors had requested a sentence ranging from 40 to 50 years, while Bankman-Fried's defense argued for a significantly shorter term, portraying him as an awkward but non-malicious figure who attempted to recover customer funds post-collapse. Despite efforts to distance Bankman-Fried from infamous fraudsters and emphasize his mathematical decision-making, the court remained focused on the extensive harm caused by his actions.Bankman-Fried's status as a prominent political donor and figure in the cryptocurrency space, known for his commitment to effective altruism and significant contributions to political causes, was also scrutinized. His detention since August 2023, due to concerns over witness tampering, and the judge's recommendation for his incarceration near San Francisco, highlight the gravity of his offenses and the legal system's response to financial malfeasance in the emerging cryptocurrency market.Bankman-Fried sentenced to 25 years for multi-billion dollar FTX fraud | ReutersTexas Attorney General Ken Paxton has initiated an investigation into Spirit AeroSystems Holdings Inc, a key supplier of parts for Boeing, due to ongoing issues with some of these parts. This inquiry comes in the wake of Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun's announcement of his departure by year's end, following a series of concerns raised by regulators and airline customers, notably after a panel detached from a 737 MAX 9 jet in January.Texas attorney general opens investigation into parts supplier for Boeing | ReutersDetails have emerged regarding Facebook's extensive history of spying on its users' encrypted communications across various apps and services, highlighting a broader issue of online privacy exploitation by numerous entities. In 2018, Facebook was discovered using a "privacy protecting VPN" called Onavo as spyware to monitor user activity on other platforms, an operation that had been sanctioned by CEO Mark Zuckerberg under "Project Ghostbusters." This project aimed to intercept and decrypt encrypted app traffic from users of Snapchat, YouTube, and Amazon, effectively conducting a large-scale "man in the middle attack" to spy on users. The strategy involved developing spyware capable of accessing data before encryption, utilizing the Onavo VPN, acquired by Facebook in 2013 and repurposed for espionage without clear disclosure to users.Internal documents from a lawsuit against Facebook's parent company, Meta, reveal that high-ranking Facebook executives were aware of the ethical and security issues posed by such surveillance but proceeded regardless. This revelation is part of a class action lawsuit filed in 2020, accusing Facebook of spying on users and lying about it. The case underscores the lax consumer privacy protections in the U.S. and the vast, loosely regulated ecosystem of data surveillance that compromises personal information for profit, often under the guise of anonymization. Despite numerous privacy scandals, there has been little meaningful action from Congress to address these concerns, particularly when lobbyists for companies like Facebook aim to eliminate competitors like TikTok. The situation raises alarms about the potential for future scandals that could finally prompt legislative action on privacy.Details Emerge Of Facebook's Long History Of Spying On Encrypted User Communications Across Different Apps And Service | TechdirtJoseph Haydn (1732-1809), was a towering figure in the Classical period of Western music, and holds a foundational place in the history of symphonic and chamber music. Born in Rohrau, Austria, Haydn's musical journey began at a young age, leading him to become a choirboy at St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna. Despite a challenging start, Haydn's undeniable talent and relentless work ethic propelled him into the circles of the Esterházy family, one of the most influential patrons of the arts in Austria, where he spent much of his career as a court musician.Haydn's contributions to music are monumental, having composed over 100 symphonies, numerous operas, string quartets, piano sonatas, and two celebrated oratorios, "The Creation" and "The Seasons." His work laid the groundwork for future generations, earning him the titles "Father of the Symphony" and "Father of the String Quartet." Through his innovative structures, development of musical motifs, and the exploration of dynamic contrasts, Haydn shaped the Classical style, influencing contemporaries and successors alike, including Mozart and Beethoven.Haydn's legacy is not just in his compositions but in his approach to music as a vibrant, living art form. His ability to infuse his works with wit, humor, and deep emotion speaks to his profound understanding of the human experience, making his music timeless and universally admired.Featured Piece: Symphony No. 77 in B flat major, IV. Allegro spiritosoThis week, we feature the exhilarating final movement, "Allegro spiritoso," from Joseph Haydn's Symphony No. 77 in B flat major. Composed during the zenith of Haydn's career in the late 18th century, this symphony exemplifies Haydn's mastery in orchestrating dynamic contrasts and his flair for thematic development.The Symphony No. 77 is part of Haydn's middle-period works, where he experimented with form and harmony to expand the expressive capabilities of the symphony. The "Allegro spiritoso" movement, in particular, showcases Haydn's skill in creating engaging musical narratives that are both intellectually satisfying and emotionally compelling. This movement is characterized by its spirited tempo and the lively, joyful themes that dance throughout the piece, providing a fitting conclusion to the symphony.Listeners will appreciate the movement's clever use of dynamics, the interplay between the orchestral sections, and the seamless transitions that propel the music forward. It's a testament to Haydn's ability to compose music that feels fresh and invigorating, demonstrating why he remains a central figure in the classical music canon.As we explore "Allegro spiritoso," let us appreciate the genius of Haydn, whose music continues to inspire and delight audiences around the world.

One year after the Civil War ended, a group of delusional and mostly incompetent commanders sponsored by bitterly competing groups riddled with spies, led tiny armies against the combined forces of the British, Canadian, and American governments. They were leaders of America's feuding Irish émigré groups who thought they could conquer Canada and blackmail Great Britain (then the world's military superpower) into granting Ireland its independence.The story behind the infamous 1866 Fenian Raids seems implausible (and whiskey-fueled), but ultimately is an inspiring tale of heroic patriotism. Inspired by a fervent love for Ireland and a burning desire to free her from British rule, members of the Fenian Brotherhood – a semi-secret band of Irish-American revolutionaries – made plans to seize the British province of Canada and hold it hostage until the independence of Ireland was secured.When the Fenian Raids began, Ireland had been subjugated by Britain for over seven hundred years. The British had taken away Ireland's religion, culture, and language, and when the Great Hunger stuck, they even took away her food, exporting it to other realms of the British Empire. Those who escaped the famine and fled to America were inspired by the revolutionary actions of the Civil War to fight for their own country's freedom. After receiving a promise from President Andrew Johnson and Secretary of State William Seward not to interfere with any military plans, the Fenian Brotherhood - which included a one-armed Civil War hero, an English spy posing as French sympathizer, an Irish revolutionary who faked his own death to escape capture, and a Fenian leader turned British loyalist – began to implement their grand plan to secure Ireland's freedom. They executed daring prison breaks from an Australian penal colony, conducted political assassinations and engaged in double-dealings, managing to seize a piece of Canada for three days.Today I'm speaking with Christopher Klein, author of the book WHEN THE IRISH INVADED CANADA: The Incredible True Story of the Civil War Veterans Who Fought for Ireland's Freedom. He brings light to this forgotten but fascinating story in history.
In the aftermath of the Great Famine, Ireland was exhausted. The population had fallen dramatically through death from hunger and disease, and from mass emigration. Over a million people had fled to seek a new life in North America, and possibly the same number settled in Great Britain. They took with them a seething hatred of England, blaming the government for the calamity that had fallen upon their motherland. The men who had taken part in the Young Ireland rebellion of 1848 began to recruit and plan armed insurrection.
