Solar and wind are now the cheapest power sources in history. But too many politicians would rather protect billionaires than help working families save on their bills. Real change starts when we stop allowing the ultra - rich to write our energy policy and run our government. Let's choose affordable, renewable power. Clean energy means lower costs, more freedom, and a planet that can actually breathe. Promote Celtic culture through music at http://celticmusicpodcast.com/.

Just like this podcast, they are changing the way we hear Celtic music. There were several folks who showed at the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast booth at IrishFest Atlanta. Several people were confused about the album pins I talk about on this show. So I thought I'd share details. An album pin is a lapel pin. Each pin is themed to a particular album I've released.

This makes them better for the environment.

FOX Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the latest set of College Football Playoff Rankings. He begins by discussing the Notre Dame-Miami conundrum as the Irish come in at #9 while the team that beat them in Week 1, Miami, sits at #13. He explains how the Committee is protecting themselves from a difficult conversation with those two teams with their rankings. Klatt then looks at the paths for 3 blue bloods: #15 USC, #17 Texas & #18 Michigan and explains how viable each path is should they win their final games. How high would USC jump with a win at Oregon this weekend? Would a win over A&M be enough to launch Texas back into the Playoff picture and would a 5th straight win over #1 Ohio State send the Wolverines into the CFP? 0:00-2:02 Intro2:03-5:47 Klatt's reaction to November 18th rankings5:48-11:31 What does the gap between Notre Dame and Miami mean for the Hurricanes' at large chances?11:32-22:01 What are the CFP paths for USC, Texas and Michigan?22:02-24:31 Overall takeaways from CFP rankings Use my code for 10% off your next SeatGeek order*: https://seatgeek.onelink.me/RrnK/KLATT10Sponsored by SeatGeek. *Restrictions apply.

Greg and Jamie open the show with a prolonged discussion on the latest CFP rankings, where Notre Dame stands, how they think the committee views them, and where things could end up. They then respond to Miami fans and their outrage over being ranked below Notre Dame and how a lot, if not all, of their arguments are misguided. They go on to wrap up the Pitt contest, some of the things they noticed and want to highlight and then end with a discussion on Syracuse who doesn't figure to be much of a match against the Irish in their final regular season home game.

On this week's episode of Inside Business, we look at the role of AI in the hiring and firing of workers.Host Ciarán Hancock is joined on the podcast by Ciara O'Brien of the Irish Times to discuss why Amazon recently announced 14,000 job cuts globally as it seeks to trim expenses. Is this being driven solely by AI? Well, in an update to staff in June, Amazon chief executive Andy Jassy stated the company would reduce jobs in some areas while it hired in others. And more AI would mean fewer corporate staff at Amazon, with the slack being picked up by generative AI and high-tech agents. Separately, we have new research from hiring platform Greenhouse which suggests that AI has created a ‘doom loop' between applicants and those who are hiring. Irish Times Work Correspondent Emmet Malone explains the issue, along with the new phenomenon of fake job postings. Plus, Ciarán is joined in studio by Darryl Byrne, Chief Executive of Irish stock exchange operator Euronext Dublin, to discuss the future of the market here and a proposal he has put forward to introduce a future-focused SIA (Savings Investment Account).Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound.

Deblock, a French crypto-banking startup founded by former Revolut and Ledger executives, has secured €30 million in Series A funding to expand its blockchain-based banking app to Ireland and further across Europe. The round was led by Speedinvest, with participation from CommerzVentures and Latitude. Deblock launched in France last year and has already attracted more than 300,000 users, reflecting an increasing demand for finance apps that make it easy to manage both euros and digital assets in one place. The fresh capital will fuel Deblock's expansion across Europe, with Ireland identified as a key early market. The company was founded by Aaron Beck, Adriana Restrepo, Jean Meyer, and Mario Eguiluz, who bring senior executive experiences from neobank, Revolut, and leading crypto hardware wallet maker, Ledger. Europe's first fully on-chain banking solution Deblock is Europe's first fully on-chain banking solution, offering a single blockchain-based banking app that combines everyday banking features with decentralised finance (DeFi) services. Deblock brings together a euro current account with a self-custody crypto wallet, enabling users to manage euros and digital assets in one platform. With its infrastructure built entirely on blockchain technology, Deblock enables faster, more transparent and more efficient processes, particularly for cross-border transfers and on-chain financial products. Its self-custody design allows users to hold, convert and use their assets within a single app, with private keys secured directly on their devices rather than by a third party. The platform also incorporates strong security standards and adheres to EU regulatory requirements for operational resilience and cybersecurity. Through Deblock, users can access everyday banking features - payments, savings, investing and borrowing - and gain direct access to DeFi services. They can move between euros and digital assets, save through Deblock's on-chain saving Vaults, which offer variable interest rates up to 10% AER, and access borrowing options secured against their digital assets. Ireland as a key early market for Deblock's European expansion The Series A funding follows exceptional growth. Since launching in France in April last year, Deblock has welcomed more than 300,000 customers. This reflects the growing demand for a new kind of banking experience that combines usability and security, where customers retain full control over their digital assets through self-custody. As part of its next phase of European expansion, Deblock has identified Ireland as a key early market, and plans to launch its platform in the country in 2026. The company has already engaged with its early Irish users to understand the needs of the Irish market, and will now focus on market preparation to make its on-chain banking experience accessible to Irish users. Ireland's established fintech sector, English-speaking market, and clear regulatory framework make it a natural step in Deblock's wider European rollout. The country also shows a steady level of interest in digital asset products, supporting the company's plans to introduce a unified platform that brings euros and digital assets together. Deblock is authorised as an Electronic Money Institution (EMI) by the Banque de France/ACPR and was the first fintech to receive a Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) licence from the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF). Through EU passporting, these licences allow Deblock to operate and offer its services in Ireland. "With a strong footprint in our home market France, Ireland represents an important early step in our European expansion," says Jean Meyer, Co-founder and CEO of Deblock. "Our goal is to create a clear and secure way to use both euros and digital assets in everyday life - and Ireland is one key market that is critical to defining the future of on-chain banking in Europe." "What stood out to us was how focused and fast the Deblock team executes," says Tom Filip ...

Reporting from West Hollywood, in a rock 'n' roll hotel with no parties and no drugs as house rules. We take a walk down Sunset Boulevard and into the strange engine of L.A.: a city built almost entirely on imagination, storytelling and constant reinvention. From Mulholland's aqueduct to the studios that wrote America's myths, we asks: what does a place like this tell us about capitalism, churn and the Uber-ised, gigged-out modern economy? From there, we fly back into something touchier: Ireland's relationship with the United States. We lay out just how dependent Ireland is on U.S. investment, jobs and tax, and then ask why so much of the Irish left, especially what he calls the “presidential left”, is reflexively anti-American. We unpack third-worldism, neutrality as moral performance, climate politics as a Trojan horse, and the growing gap between Áras rhetoric and how ordinary Irish people actually live, work and travel in a world where America is still our best friend Hosted on Acast.

https://burrennaturesanctuary.ie/           In this heartwarming episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn speaks with Marry from the Burren's Irish Nature Sanctuary in Galway, Ireland. Marry shares her inspiring journey from growing up in London to running a 50-acre conservation farm on Ireland's west coast — a place where people reconnect with nature through joyful experiences with animals, especially pigs.           Mary introduces listeners to Amelia, her beloved Juliana pig who leads woodland walks that have become one of Ireland's most unique and beloved eco-tourism experiences. Amelia has even been featured on the news, earned hundreds of 5-star Airbnb reviews, and helped countless visitors — including children overcoming fears — discover the healing magic of pigs and nature.           Together, Autumn and Mary discuss the emotional and therapeutic power of spending time with pigs, how animals help people relax and reconnect, and the importance of teaching healthy boundaries through animal interactions. Listeners will also hear touching rescue stories!          This conversation is filled with laughter, learning, and shared passion for conservation, enrichment, and the joy pigs bring into people's lives. It's a celebration of nature, compassion, and connection!

Solar and wind are now the cheapest power sources in history. But too many politicians would rather protect billionaires than help working families save on their bills. Real change starts when we stop allowing the ultra-rich to write our energy policy and run our government. Let's choose affordable, renewable power. Clean energy means lower costs, more freedom, and a planet that can actually breathe. Join the Pub and Sing Along at www.pubsong.com! #pubstories

How can a historic church navigate a rapidly changing world without losing its soul? In this episode of the Future Christian Podcast, host Martha Tatarnic speaks with Archbishop Shane Parker, the newly elected Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada, about leading through transition, discernment, and hope for the church's future. Archbishop Parker shares the story of his unexpected election, reflecting on themes of surrender, vocation, and guiding change rather than being changed by circumstance. Together, they explore what it means to lead faithfully in a post-Christian context—one where the church no longer holds cultural prominence but still holds deep spiritual purpose. They discuss: The evolving role of Christianity in Canadian society What it means to be “first among equals” in Anglican leadership The spiritual practice of personal prayer and community intercession Why some leaders are called to stay instead of move on The challenge of guiding change before it overtakes the church How to reimagine church structures for relevance and sustainability The importance of friendship, pastoral care, and gathered community in thriving congregations His hope that the future of Christianity will embody the courage, compassion, and justice of Christ Parker offers both realism and hope: that the Anglican Church can rediscover its vitality by focusing on community, worship, and service — not nostalgia or institutional weight. Archbishop Shane Parker was elected the 15th Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada on June 26, 2025, and installed on June 29, 2025, at St. Paul's Cathedral in London, Ontario. Prior to being elected Primate, he had served as the Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Ottawa since 2020. Before that, he was dean of the Diocese of Ottawa and rector of Christ Church Cathedral for two decades. Born to Irish parents in Edmonton, Alberta, he grew up in western Canada. He worked as a labourer for several years before embarking on undergraduate and graduate studies in sociology at Carleton University. After working as a professional sociologist, he studied theology at Saint Paul University. He was ordained as a priest in 1987 in the Diocese of Ottawa, later serving as the diocesan archdeacon.  Parker has an honorary doctorate from Saint Paul University, where he has served as a part-time professor of pastoral ministry and chairs its Anglican Studies Advisory Committee. A collection of his pastoral essays was published by Novalis in a book called Answering the Big Questions. He is a recipient of the Interfaith Ottawa Award, for devoted service to promoting interfaith dialogue and cooperation. Parker is married to Katherine Shadbolt, a lawyer specializing in family law and mediation. He has three adult children and three grandchildren. He is handy, enjoys physical work and is most comfortable in natural places.   Mentioned Resources:

Like a whole generation of young Irish men, John Mackey emigrated to the UK in the 1950s in search of work.At 87 and living alone in north London, the Kilkenny man who never married was sociable, charming and always dapper in his trilby hat. He was beloved by his nieces and nephews.On May 6th he headed to his local supermarket for some shopping and, as he'd increasingly stopped cooking for himself, a takeaway of chips and sausages.On his way home he was set upon by Peter Augustine (59) who stole his shopping and food, and having beaten the frail man, left him for dead.Augustine's two-week trial ended last week in the Old Bailey with a guilty verdict. He will be sentenced on November 28th.For Irish Times London correspondent Mark Paul, Mackey's murder had a particularly poignancy. He was one of a dwindling number of 1950s emigrants who left a very different Ireland to make their home in London.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan. Hosted on Acast.
