In this episode, Matt Parker and Rob Ellsworth interview Gerard Burke, the CEO of Ireland Travel Links, about golf trips in Ireland and Scotland. They discuss the differences between private golf clubs in the US and Ireland, the accessibility of championship courses in Ireland, and the benefits of playing links golf. Gerard also shares insights into organizing golf trips and the unique challenges and experiences of playing golf in Ireland. The conversation includes anecdotes about famous visitors to Ballybunion Golf Club, including Bill Clinton and Tom Watson. In this conversation, Matt Parker and Gerard Burke discuss the Golfgate scandal in Ireland, the toxic nature of politics, and the power of golf to bring people together. They also talk about playing with professional golfers and the importance of giving back to fans. Gerard shares his dream foursome and his favorite golf courses in Ireland and the United States. The conversation ends with a discussion about the US Open and the impact of Bryson DeChambeau's win on the game of golf. Takeaways Private golf clubs in Ireland are different from those in the US, with a focus on community and accessibility. Ireland and Scotland's size offer the opportunity to play the best championship courses in the country in a single trip. Links golf in Ireland and Scotland presents unique challenges, including wind and the need for low ball flights. Organizing a successful golf trip involves considering the preferences and compatibility of the group members. The Golfgate scandal in Ireland during the lockdown highlighted the perception of golf as an elitist sport and the scrutiny politicians face in setting a good example. Golf has the power to bring people together and bridge political differences, especially during golf trips where people can put their differences aside and enjoy the game. Playing with a professional golfer like Tom Watson is a humbling and awe-inspiring experience, and it highlights the dedication and determination required to excel in the sport. The US Open showcased the importance of giving back to fans and creating memorable experiences that can inspire young golfers and grow the game. Bryson DeChambeau's win at the US Open demonstrated his passion for the game and his willingness to engage with fans, which is good for the future of golf.

Sinn Féin is the most popular political party in Ireland and Northern Ireland. The local government elections in Northern Ireland in May 2023 cemented Sinn Féin's status as the largest party north of the border, while polling indicates that Mary Lou McDonald could lead the party into government in the Republic at the next General Election. Questions therefore arise as to what a Sinn Féin government would mean for Ireland's role in the European Union, Irish unity, and military neutrality, amongst other issues. In her keynote address to the IIEA, award-winning journalist Aoife Moore discusses her new book, The Long Game: Inside Sinn Féin, including what can be expected from Sinn Féin as a party of government and how a Sinn Féin-led Northern Ireland Executive may impact post-Brexit politics. In the 25th anniversary year of the Good Friday Agreement, Ms Moore also discusses the state of play in Northern Irish politics. About the Speaker: Aoife Moore is an award-winning journalist and the author of The Long Game: Inside Sinn Féin. She is a former political correspondent for the Sunday Times and the Irish Examiner and spent two years working as a journalist for Press Association. In 2020, she broke the “Golfgate” story on the Oireachtas Golf Society scandal along with her colleague Paul Hosford, for which they were jointly awarded Journalist of the Year at the 2021 Newsbrands Irish Journalism Awards. A Derry native, Ms Moore has written and commented extensively on Northern Ireland, Irish and Northern Irish politics, the legacy of the Troubles, and the Good Friday Agreement, as well as the unique challenges faced by women in Irish journalism and more widely in Irish society.

This day last year, the public was headed to the polls to vote in the General Election. 365 days later and it's impossible to think that mere weeks later such a vote would have been impossible as the country was placed into lockdown. The 33rd Dáil have faced immeasurable difficulties in their first year - but how have they fared? Within the first 67 days, three different TD's were appointed Minister for Agriculture. The government dealt with scandals such as #GolfGate and the errors in the Leaving Certificate calculated grades. Currently, they're dealing with delays to their COVID-19 vaccine roll-out programme and delays to the introduction of legislation for mandatory quarantine. Where have they fallen down? Where have they impressed? And, where do they need to improve? Michael O'Regan, Retired Parliamentary Correspondent for the Irish Times, joined Pat on the line to discuss.

Former Fine Gael senator Paul Coghlan, who invited Supreme Court justice Seamus Wolfe to the infamous Oireachtas Golf Society dinner that was in breach of public health regulations, gives his reaction to the report that has found that the judge did not break any law. The report by former Chief Justice Susan Denham found that his resignation would be disproportionate.
As Irish media coverage of Brussels wanes in the wake of Commissioner Phil Hogan's resignation over Golfgate, the real story of what goes on in the EU and further abroad remains untold.

The EU-MERCOSUR trade deal continues into law, and workers in the aviation industry suffer the effects of COVID-19. And where now for EU data protection after the historic defeat of Privacy Shield in the courts? All this and more in the latest episode of I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace.

On this episode of BYLINE, we’re speaking with Aoife Grace Moore about her career, and of course the story she and Paul Hosford broke at the Irish Examiner, now known as Golfgate. It's a story that shook the Irish nation, its government, and the EU Commission, and led to the resignation and disciplining of multiple political figures, including the EU Trade Commissioner, Phil Hogan, and the second Minister for Agriculture of this administration, Dara Calleary. Aoife is a journalist with the Irish Examiner working the political beat, who got the scoop of the year, instigating conversations about accountability in public life, and bruising a government that has a habit of denting itself. In this episode, she discusses breaking Golfgate, her eclectic start in journalism from Scotland to Melbourne, and more. BYLINE is our companion series where we speak to brilliant journalists about the stories that matter. Thanks to our Patreon supports for helping us make our podcasts.

It’s hard to believe, but September is only days away one of the strangest of summers is coming to an end. It’s also back to school time and it’s probably one of the most fraught and nerve-wracking returns to school that we have seen with Covid cases on the rise and no end in sight to the pandemic. So, with an increase in cases, the fall-out from Golfgate and people adhering to government measures, as well as parents’ worries about school, I wanted to address many of the concerns Real Health listeners currently have about Covid and I’ve turned to one of Ireland’s most outspoken GPs, Dr Matt O’Tuathail, to join me on this week’s show. Dr. Matt discusses what it’s been like as a GP during the pandemic, he takes me through the recently updated HSE guidelines in relation to kids and schools and explains why he says kids need to return to the classroom, and he looks ahead to the coming months and what we might expect.

A golf society dinner for 81 people has thrown the Irish government into chaos. Attended by a host of senior political figures, many at the forefront Ireland's COVID health strategy, the event appeared to flout the very social distancing regulations some of its guests had devised. This is just the latest in a series of disasters for the recently installed coalition government, which has been struggling to retain public confidence since its inception mere weeks ago. Naomi O'Leary and Tim Mc Inerney investigate why a scandal like this holds such high stakes in the current moment. We hear from listeners about how the restrictions have affected them, and speak to Dr Marc Scully of Mary Immaculate College, Limerick, about how the lives of hundreds and thousands of Irish emigrants have suddenly and dramatically changed in a way that has largely been ignored in Ireland's public debate about travel restrictions and health policy.

Damien gets angry reaction from listeners to the story that 80 members of the Oireachtas Golf society attended a dinner in Galway on Wednesday night. He also hears from Waterford TDs David Cullinane and Marc O Cathasaigh
Parents unable to see their newborn children, those in mourning unable to attend funerals of loved ones, thousands without jobs and countless birthday parties, weddings, communions and confirmations cancelled-Covid 19 has caused havoc and hurt for every citizen in this country and around the world. For that reason, it's not hard to see why people were so devastated and angry over the news that Minister for Agriculture Dara Calleary along with some 80 other people including former Attorney General's and the EU Commissioner attended a golf function during the week. The Minister has since resigned from his role as has Senator Jerry Buttimer , the Leas-Cathaoirleach of the Seanad. Speaking on Dermot and Dave, Aoife Moore who broke the news for the Irish Examiner explained the circumstances surrounding the golf function and we heard from people all around the country from new Mammy's who haven't been able to celebrate their new arrival with their partners to the front line workers who haven't hugged their mothers in 6 months.
