Walks will be taking place across the county in Ennis, Killaloe /Ballina, Kilmihil, Newmarket on Fergus, Shannon and Whitegate. Two-time AFLW champion, Kilmihil native, Ailish Considine, says Darkness into Light 2025 delivers a poignant message that isn't just limited to mental health support.

The Brothers Krynn come back on the pod to share their fan fiction idea, The Kenobi Timeline. Inspired by the Legends novel, Secrets of the Jedi, the story follows the what-if scenario of Obi-Wan and Obi-Wan's lover, Siri secretly having a child. From there events unfold unexpectedly, especially with lesser-known companions of Anakin and Obi-Wan who are the focus of the narrative. Each of these characters has a fully fleshed-out backstory with motivations that weave into but never contradict the events of the Prequels.  Want more energy and essential vitamins for your day but want to limit your caffeine intake?

In this exciting episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill is joined by the enthusiastic Laura Bailey, programme director for living history and events at the Chalke History Festival. Together, they kick off the festival with a deep dive into the fascinating world of mediaeval literature, challenging the misconceptions that often overshadow this rich historical source. The Chalke History Festival Unveiled:Laura introduces listeners to the Chalke History Festival, likening it to "Glastonbury for history nerds" where history enthusiasts can enjoy a week of talks, living history performances, and engaging activities that make the past come alive.She shares her journey from volunteer to programme director, highlighting the festival's commitment to making history accessible and engaging for all, and the importance of connecting historical narratives to contemporary issues. Literary Texts as Historical Sources:Laura passionately argues for the recognition of literary texts as legitimate historical sources, particularly those from the mediaeval period. She discusses the often-overlooked value of texts like the "Roman de Fergus," which, despite being dismissed by some as mere fiction, provides invaluable insights into social dynamics, geography, and the cultural landscape of the time.Listeners will learn how these texts can illuminate the complexities of courtly life, the significance of language, and the interplay between fiction and history, ultimately enriching our understanding of the mediaeval world. Challenging Historical Methodology:Throughout the episode, Laura critiques the traditional reliance on documentary sources, advocating for a more nuanced approach that considers the rich tapestry of narratives found in literary works. She emphasises the importance of examining how these texts reflect the thoughts and experiences of their authors and audiences, urging historians to embrace the multiplicity of perspectives that literature offers.

Join Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musicians.Fergus Linacre of Kingswood takes us behind the scenes of their epic 112-show Australian tour and the raw, unflinching documentary that captured it all. After the pandemic silenced stages across the country, Kingswood made a bold decision to reconnect with audiences everywhere—especially in regional areas starved for live music.When logistical challenges made traditional touring impossible, they bought their own bus, named her Peggy, and embarked on a six-month journey that would test their endurance, creativity, and relationships. Meanwhile, filmmaker Darcy Newton documented every moment, creating what would become the award-winning documentary "ClapTrap."What makes this documentary unique is Kingswood's commitment to authenticity. Inspired by Nick Cave's willingness to be vulnerable on camera, they surrendered creative control, allowing Darcy to film everything without interference. "We're quite honest about where we're at," Fergus explains. "It's not a puff piece for the band." The result is a psychological exploration of life on the road—the highs, lows, and everything in between.The conversation reveals fascinating insights into the band's formation at Melbourne Grammar School, their musical influences (from Aerosmith to Queen), and how they balanced academic pursuits with their passion for music. Fergus shares stories about supporting ACDC and Aerosmith, including a memorable backstage encounter with Steven Tyler.Looking ahead, Kingswood announces fresh music releases beginning with their Tom Petty cover "You Wreck Me," an upcoming album, and tour dates across Australia and Europe. For fans ready to experience their powerful live performances, tickets for their upcoming shows at Port Lincoln and Whyalla will be available at kingswoodband.com.Don't miss the rare theatrical screening of "ClapTrap" at the Regal Theatre in Kensington Park on April 9—your chance to witness the untold story behind one of Australia's most ambitious musical journeys.What has Fergus Linacre and Alex Laska of Kingswood been up to lately?  Let's find out!!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au

Talks to try to secure a more permanent ceasefire in Ukraine continue in Saudi Arabia later. Technical teams - but not top officials - from Washington will meet those from Kyiv, then Moscow.

The leader of Sinn Féin says the State must construct purpose-built accommodation centres in Clare to allow tourism dependent communities here to function. Mary Lou McDonald has been in Clare this morning and has visited St Patrick's Comprehensive School in Shannon as well as Obair Community Crèche in Newmarket-on-Fergus. The Ennistymon local electoral area continues to have the highest proportion of Ukrainian refugees in the country with nearly 11% of its population now from the Eastern European nation. Deputy McDonald has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons she believes North Clare communities are victims of "government mismanagement".

The British Prime Minister says bringing Ireland and the UK closer together is the "obvious and right thing to do." Taoiseach Micheal Martin has met Keir Starmer at an event in Liverpool, as part of the first in a series of UK-Ireland Summits. Tanaiste Simon Harris is also attending - along with a number of senior Government Ministers from Ireland and the UK. President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, says the increased investment sends a strong message to the international community.. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Newmarket-on-Fergus native and Professor of Politics at DCU, Professor Donnacha Ó Beacháin. Photo(C): Sergey Novikov via canva

The Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) is calling for the creation of a free, state-run database to help second-hand car buyers access vital vehicle history information. In a newly launched report, the consumer watchdog aims to "close the knowledge gap" by providing details such as mileage readings, write-off status, past accidents, and safety recalls. Currently, much of this data is either unavailable or only accessible for a fee from commercial providers. The CCPC argues that greater transparency would protect consumers and improve road safety by reducing the number of dangerous or misrepresented vehicles on Irish roads. To find out more, Alan Morrissey was joined by Derek Considine, of Derek Considine Car Sales Ltd in Miltown Malbay and Michael Breen, of N18 Autos in Newmarket-on-Fergus.

As the founder and CEO of CoPeace Capital, he's on a mission to use investing as a force for good, ensuring that more people—especially those historically excluded from wealth-building opportunities—can participate in equity investing.“Many communities have not had the access to growing their wealth through equity investing,” Craig explained. “And the crowdfunding platforms allow that to happen.”CoPeace, a Certified B Corporation and Public Benefit Corporation, has been actively raising capital from the crowd, successfully leveraging Regulation Crowdfunding to fuel its impact-driven investments. By embracing this approach, CoPeace is not only funding its own growth but also identifying promising companies that align with its mission. The company has already invested in businesses focused on sustainable infrastructure and social impact, proving that financial returns and positive change can coexist.Craig emphasized that success in impact crowdfunding isn't automatic—it requires effort, strategy, and community engagement. “The number one learning is that it's not magic. It takes work to develop the crowd that might want to invest in what you're doing.”A common misconception about impact investing is that it requires sacrificing returns. Craig challenges that notion, pointing out that market-based returns are not only possible but often stronger when companies prioritize sustainability and long-term value creation. “Not only are we seeing kind of market-based returns, but the data is showing that it is a good business decision to care about the future of our world,” he said.With plans to launch a larger fund, CoPeace Capital is expanding its ability to invest in high-impact businesses while continuing to make equity investing more accessible. Craig's leadership in this space demonstrates that with the right approach, anyone can leverage capital to drive meaningful change.For those looking to align their investments with their values, CoPeace offers a compelling example of how financial success and social impact can go hand in hand.tl;dr:* Craig Jonas, CEO of CoPeace Capital, discusses using impact investing to democratize access to wealth-building opportunities.* He shares insights from CoPeace's successful Regulation Crowdfunding campaign and how it supports mission-aligned businesses.* Craig challenges the misconception that impact investing requires sacrificing financial returns, highlighting data that supports market-based gains.* He explains his superpower, empathic awareness, and how it shapes his leadership and investment strategies.* Craig offers practical advice for developing empathic awareness, emphasizing active listening, reflection, and immersing oneself in diverse environments.How to Develop Empathic Awareness As a SuperpowerCraig's superpower is empathic awareness—the ability to perceive and deeply understand the emotions and perspectives of others.Craig describes this skill as an essential part of navigating the impact investing space. "I think my superpower is empathic awareness and the ability to kind of perceive what others are thinking," he shared. By listening intently to stakeholders, investors, and the communities CoPeace serves, Craig ensures that their needs and concerns shape the company's mission and strategy.One powerful example of Craig's empathic awareness took place during his time as a basketball coach in post-apartheid South Africa. Selected as the first American coach to work in the townships, he recalls sensing the fear and hesitation in the eyes of young players as he entered their community. By being present, acknowledging their lived experiences, and creating a space of mutual trust, he fostered a meaningful connection that made the basketball clinic not only a success but also a transformational moment for everyone involved.Craig believes that developing empathic awareness requires intentional effort. His tips include:* Pause and Reflect: Before reacting, take an extra moment to consider the perspectives of others.* Engage in New Environments: Step outside your comfort zone by immersing yourself in different cultures and communities.* Observe Role Models: Identify and learn from individuals who demonstrate deep empathy in their interactions.* Listen Actively: Focus on understanding rather than responding—allow people to share their experiences fully.By following Craig's example and advice, you can make empathic awareness a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.
