Send us a textIrish Mythology tells of a battle where a  united world attacked Ireland. The Battle of Ventry (Cath Fionntrá) is a legendary, epic tale from the Fenian Cycle of Irish mythology.  It tells the tale of the invasion of Ireland in the 3rd century by the "King of the World," Daire Donn, and a massive European army that he united.  The world was united to conquer Ireland because Fionn mac Cumhaill had eloped with the King of Frances's wife and daughter. The one year one day war was fought at Ventry Bay in County Kerry. The Fianna had fighters from other groups in Ireland to include the Tuath Dé Danann.  This battle included heroic single combat, magical elements like special weapons, and devastating losses.  The battle ultimately ended with the Fianna's victory and the invaders' retreat, though the Fianna experienced a horrific number of casualties. Support the showIrish Mythology - Mythical Cycle - Book of Invasions

The Jim Gavin report has landed, but does it really explain how Fianna Fáil handled repeated warnings about a serious tenant dispute? Or does it reveal a party too willing to accept reassurances, too slow to ask hard questions, and too determined to protect a chosen candidate?  Fionnán Sheahan outlines the reporting behind the story, the weeks of verification, and the moment the party's bluff was called. Irish Independent Political Editor Mary Regan assesses the damage, the unanswered questions around Michael Martin's role, and why Fianna Fáil remains deeply divided.  Host: Kevin Doyle Guest: Fionnán Sheehan & Mary Regan  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Twenty-five years ago, as a long summer drew to a close, a night out ended in tragedy. It changed the lives of four young men forever, ending another's far too soon. It happened in an unlikely place, the leafy, affluent suburb of Donnybrook in south Dublin. A fight broke out among a group of young men outside Anabel's nightclub. When it was over, 18-year-old Brian Murphy lay on the ground. Hours later, he was pronounced dead. What followed wasn't just a murder investigation - it was a case that exposed a deep divide in Irish society.
