Andy Burnham may be new to the job in Number 10 Downing Street, but he's already found himself at the centre of a political row over one of the most sensitive issues on this island: Irish unity. The British prime minister's unequivocal dismissal of any prospect of a border poll has reignited a long-running debate about who gets to decide Northern Ireland's future, and when that moment should come. But strip away the politics, and one question remains: in an Ireland that's changing socially and demographically, would a vote for unity actually succeed? Is there a genuine appetite for a united Ireland north and south of the Border? And what can past referendums and reunification projects across Europe tell us about the challenges ahead? On today's Indo Daily, Tessa Fleming is joined by the Irish Independent's John Downing to examine the question that has shaped Irish politics for generations: could a border poll actually deliver a united Ireland?

Andy and Brendan are excited for Labor Day weekend and bring the energy for this Whiparound Friday episode ahead of the holiday. They begin with Mike Sposa's win at the U.S. Senior Amateur Championship at Baltimore Country Club. Andy is inspired by this story of resilience in the amateur game and wonders how Sposa had the time to get so good at golf while he was busy making 90 cuts on the PGA Tour! The two break down yet another example of the farce that is "reinstated amateurism" and wonder how the USGA let this guy bank in the ranks after such a long pro career. Brendan continues the heartwarming start to the show with a Sergio Garcia tale from the Omega European Masters that you won't want to miss. From there, they discuss this weekend's Walker Cup at Lahinch Golf Club. Team USA has to face not only the best Great Britain & Ireland team in recent memory, but they're also battling a stomach bug that has taken over the teamroom. From there, Andy shares some research into the Christiaan Bezuidenhout Presidents Cup pick and decides that C-Bez should play all five sessions for the Internationals. Kevin Van Valkenburg returns with yet another B. Draddy P-Cup Flashback about the 2015 matches and some Phil Mickelson hijinks in South Korea. Andy and Brendan wrap with news regarding Good Good and the RBC Heritage before sending this episode on its way into a holiday weekend. Use promo code SGS30 for 30% off Presidents Cup gear at B.

Troy of The Secret Commonwealth emailed a sad follow up back in March to the news about his friend who was illegally held in ICE custody: "Marc, thank you so much for sharing the fundraiser for my friend on your new episode. It is with profoundly heavy heart that I have to tell you that my friend died last Sunday of a heart attack. He had been moved to a hospital in Mississippi and apparently suffered two successive attacks. His body is being returned now. To say we are devastated and infuriated would be inadequate to describe our state of being. We had just been sending his lawyers important records and documents that we felt, along with his obvious serious health conditions, had a very good chance of securing his release. We'll never know now if that would have proven to be true, but we just needed him to endure a little while longer, which he ultimately could not. He died one month short of a year since being detained by ICE. I have not yet publicly announced this in an update to our fundraiser because, frankly, it's still too fresh and painful to address. But any proceeds we've made will obviously now be put toward the cost of his funeral service. Sorry to impart this bad news, but I mostly wanted to express my gratitude to you for your kind support on behalf of Pejman's family, my girlfriend (who was his dearest friend in the world and who spearheaded this fight for his freedom) and for me. Best to you,"

Then, D'Marco and Andy Kamenetzky were joined by Greg Bergman for the show as they reacted to the big news of the day: The LA Clippers getting penalized by the NBA for cap circumvention in their contract with Kawhi Leonard.

Ireland and the Irish - we all have a story to tell, right? In this episode I get the insider stories from Ireland - both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland - from three brilliant guests who all agreed to answer questions about why they love living there, their favourite traditions, what surprises visitors and what we as travellers need to know before we go. What I loved most about speaking with these Ireland locals is the variety of their answers - I thought I knew a lot about this part of the world but there's so much more to learn.

The long-predicted crack cocaine epidemic is here and has been compared to the heroin epidemic that ravaged communities and destroyed lives in Dublin in the 1980s. It's cheap at as little as €10 for a “rock”, though for users smoking that will last just minutes and they'll spend the rest of their day focused on getting the drug, while eating and self-care become secondary concerns. It makes users agitated, paranoid and aggressive – with predictable results. Unlike powder cocaine, Ireland's crack cocaine problem is not distributed evenly across society. Why and how has the crisis developed? And why is crack addiction such a difficult drug to treat? And why are homeless women turning to crack cocaine in such numbers?Eddie Mullins, who spent his career working in the prison service becoming the governor of Mountjoy jail, now heads up Merchants Quay Ireland, the Dublin-based charity offering services to homeless people and drug users. He describes the impact of the surging crack cocaine crisis on users and the wider community.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan. Hosted on Acast.

Jelly Roll went after Trump on Jimmy Kimmel Live and the backlash is exploding. What he said next is the real story, and it's why millions of country music fans say they're done with him for good.Then a former progressive activist comes forward with a warning that should scare everybody: the political violence in America isn't over, and she explains exactly why it's about to get worse. She reveals what happened to her inside the movement before she got out, and what she says about the Charlie Kirk rhetoric will stop you cold.Angie Nixon says she's not a socialist. So why did she join the Democratic Socialists of America, and what do the clips the DSA doesn't want you to see actually show? We play them side by side and you can decide for yourself.Meanwhile, the Los Angeles mayor race just hit rock bottom. Karen Bass and Nithya Raman tore into each other in a debate so brutal it left one question hanging over the entire city: what happens to LA if the wrong person wins?We also expose the fake polls scandal, a voter manipulation tactic so effective you've probably already fallen for it without knowing. There's a name for what they're doing, and once you hear it you'll spot it everywhere.Finally, the Spain migration crisis explodes. Thousands storm the streets of Ceuta near the Morocco Spain border, and how the locals answered has all of Europe holding its breath. Ireland went first, Spain is next, and nobody in Brussels wants to guess which country is after that.

Ahead of this week's Walker Cup at Lahinch Golf Club, Andy Johnson previews the matches with this two-part podcast.

Arson attacks, air space violations and assassination squads: Those were among the warnings from Poland's Foreign Minister, Radek Sikorski, at a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Ireland today.

What happens when a client has enough money to retire, but no idea what they're retiring to?That's the tension at the center of my conversation with Mark Hedderman, a second-generation financial advisor from Ireland who's been rethinking what great financial planning should actually look like.Mark started noticing a gap in the traditional model. Clients could accumulate enough money for several lifetimes while quietly neglecting other parts of their lives that become much harder to fix later.We get into why advisors can mistake a growing portfolio for a successful outcome, how retirement can expose problems the accumulation years hide, and why the rise of AI may actually make the human side of financial advice more valuable.4 Insights From This Week's Episode…#1.) Money Is The Vehicle, Not The OutcomeA client can reach every financial milestone and still arrive at retirement unprepared for what comes next. Mark and I explore why the numbers only tell part of the story and what advisors risk missing when accumulation becomes the primary definition of success.#2.) AI May Make The Human Side Of Advice More ValuableTechnology can analyze portfolios, compare fees, and produce financial information faster than ever. The bigger question is what happens to the advisor's value when those things become commodities.#3.) Help Your Clients Retire To SomethingLeaving a career can also mean losing purpose, routine, relationships, and identity. Mark explains why retirement shouldn't feel like slamming on the brakes, and how advisors can help clients gradually transition into a new season filled with meaningful experiences, relationships, and pursuits.#4.) Being Rich And Being Wealthy Aren't The Same ThingMore money can create freedom, but it can also become a scoreboard that never stops moving. Mark challenges the assumption that a larger portfolio automatically creates a better life and explores the point where accumulating more can actually distract clients from what the money was supposed to make possible.FREE GIVEDownload your copy of The Life Care Plan.

Millions of people around the world suffer from gastrointestinal issues like gastroparesis, reflux, and constipation, but until now, the available treatments haven't been very effective, and often carry some pretty nasty potential side effects. Today, we're featuring a company hoping to bring those people relief with a drug that's both efficacious and safe. Today's guest is Peter Milner, the founder and managing member of Renexxion, where he serves as the CEO of its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Renexxion Ireland Limited, a clinical stage biopharma company committed to delivering innovative drugs to patients with gastrointestinal disorders globally. Peter's a board-certified cardiologist, a physician-scientist and a serial entrepreneur with a proven track record of building successful biotechnology companies, including CV Therapeutics and Aptivio Biotechnology, and advancing novel therapeutics from discovery to development. Today, Peter's going to walk us through Renexxion's very promising new drug, the treatment gap it aims to redress, and what it will take to get it through clinical trials and into the hands of patients. Highlights:From Medicine to Serial Entrepreneur (3:00)The Gap in GI Treatment (3:30)How the Drug Works (6:10)Where Others Failed (5:05)Trial Results and the Road to Phase 3 (8:20)The Problem with Current Treatments (9:45)The Dr. Falk Partnership (17:10)Pipeline in a Pill (20:20)The Billion-Dollar Opportunity (21:45)What's Next for Renexxion (23:50)Links:Peter Milner LinkedInRenexxion LinkedInRenexxion WebsiteICR LinkedInICR TwitterICR Website Feedback:If you have questions about the show, or have a topic in mind you'd like discussed in future episodes, email our producer, joe@lowerstreet.co

What happens when the Fires in our Hearts become tsunamis of feeling that take us beyond the narrow imaginal cul de sacs our culture has created, and throw our doors wide open to the wonder of the past and the absolutely unknowable, glorious, constantly surprising possibilities of the future we haven't built yet? This week's guest, Clare Murphy, is an Irish Storyweaver, a storyteller who consults with people like NASA, the National Theatre, Climate activists, water protectors, first responders and limbless veterans. She's a Gatherer of world mythologies who seeks out the untold tales, the ones that were covered up by the hierarchies of blandness that came after them. She finds them and blows off the dust and breathes new life into them so the rest of us can step off the beaten track with her, and find new ways of being that could take us forward. Clare's a magician with the spoken word, a fire-spinner who understands the age-old magic of our voices, and the ways a few words can shift us into new, expansive ways of seeing and being. At the time we spoke, Clare had just completed the third edit of her book (Edit-envy? Me?!) and was gearing up for her outstanding one-woman show, 'We All Came By Boat' in Bristol later in September. As you'll hear, she's one of those people who lights up any room and helps people find—and then ignite—the fire in their own heads. So prepare to be ignited - Enjoy!.Linkshttps://claremurphy.org/Clare at The Wardrobe Theatre, Bristol 15th - 19th September - Book Now!

In his new novel A Nation Once Again, Paul Howard, best known for the Ross O'Carroll Kelly series, turns his satirical eye from wealthy South Dublin to an imaginary government department devoted to preparing for the reunification of Ireland. He talks to Hugh about how the concept allowed him to explore both the absurdity of the border's existence and the ridiculousness of trying to remove itThey discuss the book's origins as a sitcom, how his experience as a child in Ireland with an English accent (Howard's family returned to Ireland when he was eight) helped him develop an ear for phonetic quirks and why Ireland's Call may be the perfect anthem for a United Ireland.

In 2024, Nina's small-engine plane crashes into a lake in the Wyoming mountains. Her boyfriend Ben, who was flying it, is nowhere to be found. Lost and freezing on the shore, Nina is armed with only a few old protein bars, a phone with no service, and a vague hope of rescue. It is up to her to survive in the vast wilderness. But then she stumbles upon Sunrise—a town of the Old West that is strangely well maintained, but seemingly abandoned. A place that holds the missing link to a ghost story one hundred years in the making.In 2003, Sand Daw's golden boy Coll is putting the finishing touches on the town's annual historical reenactment. But when an upstart would-be author comes to him with questions about one of Sunrise's most beloved figures, it threatens to upend everything he thought he knew about the city—and himself.In 1902, town founder, gunslinger, and legendary pulp hero Anton Vargas returns to Sunrise and quickly takes charge of a group searching for a missing boy. But who really is Vargas? What does he know about the boy's disappearance? And why has he returned after such a long absence?These three strangers are separated by time and circumstance. But Sunrise's many secrets are like gunpowder: quiet, contained, until they encounter a spark. Magisterial and suspenseful, Téa Obreht's novel Sunrise (Random House, 2026) challenges the myths we think we know: of heroes and villains, of the people and places to which we lay claim, and, most of all, of our own lives. Téa Obreht is the internationally bestselling author of The Tiger's Wife, Inland, and The Morningside. Her novels have won the Orange Prize for Fiction and the Southwest Book Award, and have been finalists for the National Book Award and the Dylan Thomas Prize, among others. Her work has appeared in The Best American Short Stories, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Harper's Magazine, and Zoetrope: All-Story. Originally from the former Yugoslavia, she divides her time between Dublin, Ireland, and Wyoming.

Paul is related to the titular character, hence their discovery of the book. The book is written in a unique way, with plenty of phonetic language and tall-tales, many of are considered truth from the time, about the mythical Hudy McGuigan and his life in Ireland, including the unusual situations he found himself in due to his mischievous ways  - this is not a conventional book, so it makes the perfect pilot book to review! Paul & Mike discussed this book before reading on episode 266 of GCC, listen here: https://pod.fo/e/2c7535 The next book our trio will be reviewing is Tony's pick; J. D.

What a feeling it was to watch some football this past weekend. Bill Belichick and the Tar Heels won a sloppy one in Ireland, Stanford with a backdoor cover, and Memphis played UNLV in what Dave has already declared "the game of the year." Still, we must turn the page to Week 1. We get a full cast this week as the boys recap some quick thoughts on the Week 0 action, preview the Week 1 slate, and dish out some locks of the week.

We have a spoiler-filled chat about the first week of Traitors Ireland Season 2 with Season 1 OG Traitor Katelyn Divilly. Listen to Katelyn's podcast A Place in the World here.

Get in touch - leave me a messageLong-duration energy storage is increasingly ready to deploy. The harder problem is that electricity markets still struggle to value what duration actually provides - flexibility, reliability and power when the sun sets, the wind drops and demand peaks.My guest is Julia Souder, CEO of the Long Duration Energy Storage Council. She works across the policy, finance and deployment questions shaping this market, and brings a useful view of what is already happening in places such as China, Australia, the UK, Ireland and the US.We look at why storage is becoming an infrastructure and investment question rather than simply a technology question; what changes when markets pay for four hours of capacity but the grid increasingly needs eight, 12 or 24; and why revenue certainty may now matter more than another technical breakthrough. We also examine what China appears to be getting right about deployment, and why long-duration storage matters for data centres, industrial heat and renewable-heavy grids.Listen now to understand what is really holding back long-duration energy storage at scale, and what could shift the economics, policy and investment case.Sign up to Climate Confident+ for deep dive analysis of the major climate and energy stories of the day.Support the showPodcast subscribersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's amazing subscribers:Anita KrajncCecilia SkarupaBen GrossJerry SweeneyAndreas WernerStephen CarrollRoger ArnoldAnd remember you too can Subscribe to the Podcast  - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent Climate Confident episodes like this one, as well as give you access to the entire back catalog of Climate Confident episodes.

With the Sam Maguire set to winter in the county this year for the first time since 1951, Rob is joined by good friends of the podcast Mick Foley and Ciarán O'Hara from the Gaelic games history podcast Over The Bar to chat about where Mayo's All-Ireland victory this year fits in relation to some of the great wins of the past and to consider what made 2026 so significant.The lads chat about the impact of social media and how it made the story about Mayo's All-Ireland success go right around the world, contrasting this with the more limited impact of Offaly's hugely historic 1982 title win. They also discuss how, to those outside of Ireland, Mayo ended up representing every corner of the island in the wake of the win over Kerry.Mick and Ciarán lean into their deep knowledge of Gaelic games history to talk about alternative jerseys worn by Mayo down the years and they also have a look at the history of the Sam Maguire trophy.

First up on this episode of Inside Business, the issue of fuel costs after the Dáil voted to postpone the restoration of fuel excise duty last Friday.Did they wilt in the face of more potential protests?What is the cumulative impact of taxes, levies, regulations and other fuel-related charges on the cost of transport and home-heating fuels?And with the budget around the corner, should any changes to carbon tax consider both fuel affordability and the climate programmes funded by it?For more on this, host Cliff Taylor was joined in studio by Kevin McPartlan, CEO of Fuels for Ireland.Also in this episode, we look at the spread of digital tipping terminals that prompt customers to leave gratuities for basic counter service.Should you tip on a coffee-and-pastry purchase? What about a takeaway?And is tipping becoming expected rather than voluntary?Irish Times Consumer Correspondent Conor Pope has been writing about this, and he joined Cliff to give his thoughts.Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound.

A law on paper stops no abortion if no officer investigates, no prosecutor files, and no judge rules, which is why promising immediate abolition promises something no legislature can deliver. Australian pastor and theologian Dr. Craig Ireland, who holds a master's in law, walks through what actually moves in a precedent-based legal system, why refusing partial protections trades real children for an ideal future, and why "our goal isn't more babies saved" removes you from the conversation entirely.

Regular listener Ciara joins Adrian and Jeremy after a string of incidents that have left her terrified — from a taxi driver changing the route mid-journey, to harassment on the street and on the beach.But the conversation quickly turns explosive when she says her bad experiences have involved foreign men, and she's now wary of getting into taxis at all.Is she speaking from trauma and instinct… or is it racism, as one furious caller argues?With live callers split down the middle, the debate hits immigration, taxi regulation, “freedom of speech”, and why men and women experience fear so differently.

Kail and Becky are coming to you from Philly during the final stretch of tour, and somehow the conversation goes from Ireland plans to gluten-free kitchen prep to a butter dish saga in record time. They reflect on what surprised them most about taking the show on the road, finding their sweet spot with live audiences, and proving the people who said they couldn't do it wrong.They also get into Kail's upcoming tonsil surgery, mental health and medication, why being open about the messy parts of life matters, and the very different people they were in high school. Plus, Becky's headed to a high school reunion, old fight stories resurface, and they unpack just how intense school safety drills have become.Between Philly nerves, plans to take the tour international, and Kail realizing her supposedly quiet fall is already filling up, one thing is clear: the chaos isn't ending with tour.For full videos head to patreon.com/kaillowry Follow Becky at Hayter25 and subscribe to For The HaytersThank you for supporting the show by checking out our sponsors!
