“Houston” is a brand new song from Irish-born, London-based Country singer Janet Devlin. And if you listen past the stomping good time, honky tonk grit that defines the track, you’ll find that Devlin arrives upon something deeper: A reclamation of solitude as liberation.
Between 250,000-300,000 tourists land on the island every year, 2,500 a day in summer, and yet it still feels authentic, alive, and deeply Irish. In this episode, we ask: how do remote places like Inishmore thrive in today's economy, while once-wealthy regions like France's Île de Ré struggle with emptying out? We dig into the wild history of cod and salt (the currency of empires), why Ireland salted beef instead of fish, and how the Aran Islands are now punching above their weight in the global experience economy. From lobster-pot pubs to the death of distance, we explore what makes people pay not just for goods and services, but for memory, tribe, and authenticity. Hosted on Acast.

Tommy & Ben start with Gaza: the UN Human Rights Council's finding that Israel has committed genocide, and Israel's ground operation into Gaza City. They discuss how Marco Rubio signaled that Trump has given up on brokering a peace deal in Gaza, and why the Netanyahu government is telling the press that Trump is lying about his knowledge of the IDF airstrike in Qatar. Also covered: Kash Patel's combative Senate hearing about the rampant dysfunction at the FBI, the global reaction to the murder of Charlie Kirk and the dark conspiracy theories that have emerged around it, the long-term harm to the US-South Korea relationship caused by the ICE raid on a Hyundai plant in Georgia, Nepal's democracy by Discord, Trump's UK state visit amid Jeffrey Epstein fallout and far-right protests, Trump's ultimatums to NATO, and Conor McGregor's aborted bid for the Irish presidency. Then, Tommy speaks to Tom Fletcher, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, about the humanitarian situations in Haiti, Sudan, and Gaza, the devastating effects of the gutting of USAID, and what's giving him hope right now.

This podcast opens a broader series on the 1798 Rebellion, but also works as a stand alone episode.For over a century, Irish Catholics and Presbyterians were subjected to the Penal Laws. Although the vast majority of the population, they were banned from voting, sitting in parliament, bearing weapons, and entering many professions—the list goes on.This episode explores the deeply unequal society these laws created. By following the life of Emily Fitzgerald, who moved to Ireland in 1747, we gain a unique insight into this world. I explain how the Penal Laws emerged after a century of warfare, how Catholics resisted their brutal treatment, and how these laws created a deeply unequal and unstable society.To find our feet in this world, we begin in the harrowing winter of 1740, which led to the Year of Slaughter—the worst famine in Irish history.This podcast launches my series on the 1798 Rebellion. The next instalment, Part 2, will be available early and ad-free for show supporters next Monday.Become a supporter today and get exclusive early and ad-free access at:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/IrishpodcastSupercast: https://irishhistory.supercast.com/Sound: Kate DunleaAdditional Research: Stewart ReddinVoice Actors: Aidan Crowe & Therese MurrayA list of sources for the 1798 Rebellion is available here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/138580354 (the post is not paywalled) Hosted on Acast.

Lawyer and intelligence historian David Burke reveals a shadowy chapter in the story of Anglo-Irish relations in the 20th century. Irish police intelligence analyst Patrick Crinnion was a man of rare intelligence. He had also been groomed from a young age to spy for the United Kingdom. When the Troubles in Northern Ireland broke out, he was feeding information on the IRA to Westminster. But the IRA had its own, highly effective spymaster. In time, both men would pay a heavy price for their part in an old and dangerous game. From SPYSCAPE, the home of secrets. A Cup And Nuzzle production. Series producer: Joe Foley.

You know how, after they retire, some older guys go out and get, like, part-time jobs at the United Way or Ace Hardware or some shit? Not necessarily because they need the money — they just need to keep themselves busy, and maybe they like talking to people about paint colors and nail sizes and the best brands of epoxy spackle. Is that what Dana White is doing with boxing? Dana was at the big boxing match on Saturday, sitting at ringside next to Turki Alalshikh and Mark Wahlberg. After Terence Crawford whooped up on Canelo Alvarez, Dana wrapped the Ring Magazine belt around Crawford's waist. Aside from that, we're not totally sure what his job was there. So, as TKO reportedly plots its takeover of the sweet science, is Dana effectively using boxing like some guys join the country club? Does he want to fade out of the UFC, kick back and spend a few hours a day destroying the Muhammad Ali Act and looking for young, white, Irish fighters to promote? Cuz those are the vibes. Meanwhile, at Dana's real job, they put on an event the same night, where Diego Lopes knocked all kinds of blood out of Jean Silva's head during UFC Noche. Learn more about your ad choices.

Greg McElroy delivers his Top 10 takeaways from week 3 of the college football season. Texas A&M is a legit contender - can they handle the expectations, while the “luck” of the Irish has not been on their side early this season - where does Notre Dame go from here? Georgia won on toughness, Tennessee looked really good (even in a loss) and LSU's offense isn't broken, it's just different. Did the ceilings for Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt change after big wins, can Clemson recover and what to make of the job openings at Virginia Tech and UCLA? All that and more plus some shoutouts on BOLD predictions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

After the sudden loss of his first wife, Irish widower Jason Corbett hired Molly Martens to help care for his two young children. In time, Molly became more than just an au pair, and Jason eventually brought her and the children with him to North Carolina to start a new life together. But in the middle of a summer night, a desperate 911 call shattered that picture of domestic stability. What unfolded inside the family's home would lead to years of courtroom drama, international headlines, and lasting rifts between two families an ocean apart.Listen to Part 2 today on PatreonToday's snack: Memaw's Country Kitchen Cheese Tiddies, Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Lemon CoolersSources:A Deadly American Marriage, NetflixMy Brother Jason, by Tracey Corbett-Lynch and Ralph RiegelA Time for Truth: My Father Jason and My Search for Justice and Healing, by Sarah Corbett Lynch, March 2025Turning this thing around: An Inspirational Self-help memoir, Keith Maginn, 201248 Hours: In Jason's Name https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfFfgPwC1EU 911 call audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Zf4abfnROw https://www.newspapers.com/image/961561485/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/946807358/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/1089324893/ https://www.newspapers.com/image/1167479266/ https://extra.ie/2025/08/16/news/molly-martens-car-jason-corbett?fbclid=IwY2xjawMNyQFleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHirC7Lfl0iYwAsOb6uFjNUu9fzgK0TKpkfldY4J5_kM3ylpR7ud1qw0nE3i3_aem_n3wK3OZjFfBE_Fh2y23gXwhttps://www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/2025/08/16/jason-corbett-how-an-anonymous-tip-off-helped-close-the-net-on-the-limerick-mans-killers/?fbclid=IwY2xjawMNyWhleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHkuTXjV5E9iBJI5j872XJzWN_bwbvzZ0Qh2wDwuCMZSKtYkb8O9Tj-T68OLF_aem_HGP_k7LgtvKb4A3Ztk7Cjghttps://law.justia.com/cases/north-carolina/court-of-appeals/2020/18-714.html

Greg Flammang is back from South Bend and provides his next day thoughts on Notre Dame's devastating loss in the final seconds to Texas A&M. The Irish defense was leaking heavy oil in the passing game against the Aggies, surrendering 360 passing yards on just 17 completions and allowing 41 points. Notre Dame's offense was a bright spot, with Jeremiyah Love, Jadarian Price, and CJ Carr playing starring starring roles, but it wasn't enough to stave off the Aggies.

Welcome to Your History Your Story! Today, our guest is Leora O'Carroll—an Emmy-nominated writer, producer and accomplished musician. Leora is here to talk about the 2019 book she co-authored with her mother Maureen, titled: “Maureen O'Carroll: A Musical Memoir of an Irish Immigrant Childhood”. The book shares the inspiring story of Leora's mother, Maureen, who grew up in Australia as one of ten children of Irish immigrant parents who had fled their homeland in the mid 1920's to escape possible reprisals due to their political activism. Guided by the values of her parents in a household filled with resilience, community and a love of music, Maureen went on to become an acclaimed cellist, performing with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and other ensembles around the world. She was also a successful recording artist, soloist and teacher.Music: "With Loved Ones" Jay Man Photo(s): Courtesy of Leora O'CarrollThank you for supporting Your History Your Story!YHYS Patreon: CLICK HERE YHYS PayPal: CLICK HEREYHYS: Stay in the know, join our mailing list: CLICK HERE YHYS: Website, Blog & Social: CLICK HERE#yhys #yourhistoryyourstory #history #storytelling #podcast #njpodcast #youhaveastorytoo #jamesgardner #historian #storyteller #blogger To purchase Leora O"Carroll's book: CLICK HERE
On 16 September 1539, Walter Devereux was born at Chartley in Staffordshire. Nobleman, soldier, coloniser—and father to Robert Devereux, Elizabeth I's brilliant but doomed favourite—Walter's life was full of ambition, controversy, and whispers that outlived him. From his meteoric rise at Elizabeth's court to his brutal and ill-fated campaign in Ireland, Walter seemed destined for greatness. But at just 37, he died suddenly in Dublin in 1576. Official cause? Dysentery. The rumours? Poison… perhaps even at the hands of Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester—who later married Walter's widow, Lettice Knollys. In this episode, I trace Walter's journey from Chartley heir to Irish commander, explore his marriage into the Boleyn-Knollys family, and ask: Why did his Irish venture turn so grim? Was his death really natural—or the result of a Tudor plot? How did his early end shape the fate of his son, the tragic Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex? Poison or misfortune? You decide in the comments.

Hello to you listening in Hamburg, Germany!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga. We are living in a time of historic upheaval. But what if this currently confusing, chaotic, confounding, cultural churn is stumbling toward change that reveals the hidden roots of social injustice for what they are so that we can reconfigure for good?How easily the safeguards can be leaped. And they have been. We can clutch our pearls and bemoan the times we live in; or, we can invite our feelings of hopelessness to give way to action, to repair, restore, and renew out of the ashes of the old ways. We are responsible for making change because we're the only “sentient force” that can.Question: What one small grand gesture are you committed to take on behalf of what you love and care for?These words from the Irish poet Seamus Heaney may motivate and sustain you wherever your feet touch the ground, whatever progress you are intent on making today. “History says, Don't hopeOn this side of the grave...But then, once in a lifetimeThe longed-for tidal waveOf justice can rise upAnd hope and history rhyme.” [“The Cure at Troy” Seamus Heaney]BONUS: Seamus Heaney reads his poem, The Cure at TroyThe Cure at Troy (full text)"Human beings sufferThey torture one another,They get hurt and get hard.No poem or play or songCan fully right a wrongInflicted and endured. The innocent in gaolsBeat on their bars together.A hunger-striker's fatherStands in the graveyard dumb.The police widow in veilsFaints at the funeral home. History says, Don't hopeOn this side of the grave…But then, once in a lifetimeThe longed-for tidal waveOf justice can rise up,And hope and history rhyme. So hope for a great sea-changeOn the far side of revenge.Believe that a further shoreIs reachable from here.Believe in miraclesAnd cures and healing wells. Call miracle self-healing:The utter, self-revealingDouble-take of feeling.If there's fire on the mountainOr lightning and stormAnd a god speaks from the sky That means someone is hearingThe outcry and the birth-cryOf new life at its term.It means once in a lifetimeThat justice can rise upAnd hope and history rhyme.

In this episode, I sit down with acclaimed writer and poet Kathleen Norris to talk about her deeply personal new book, Rebecca Sue. The book tells the story of her sister Becky - born with brain damage at birth - whose life was marked by both difficulty and transformation, humor and resilience. Kathleen shares what it was like to grow up alongside Becky, how storytelling became a way of honoring her full humanity, and why persistence was necessary to bring this book into the world. Along the way, she reflects on grief, community, the role of faith, and the ways we learn to see people not through labels or limitations, but in the fullness of who they are. This is a conversation about love, loss, and the surprising grace that emerges when we pay attention to every story - even the ones we're tempted to overlook.Kathleen Norris is the award-winning poet, writer, and author of the New York Times bestselling books The Cloister Walk, Acedia & Me: A Marriage, Monks, and a Writer's Life, Dakota: A Spiritual Geography, Amazing Grace: A Vocabulary of Faith, The Virgin of Bennington, and several volumes of poetry. Exploring the spiritual life, her work is at once intimate and historical, rich in poetry and meditations, brimming with exasperation and reverence, deeply grounded in both nature and spirit, sometimes funny, and often provocative.Widowed in 2003, Kathleen Norris now divides her time between South Dakota and Honolulu, Hawaii, where she is a member of an Episcopal church. She travels to the mainland regularly to speak to students, medical professionals, social workers, and chaplains at colleges and universities, as well as churches and teaching hospitals. For many years she was the poetry editor of Spirituality & Health magazine. She serves as an editorial advisor for the monthly Give Us This Day from Liturgical Press, and writes for a weekly e-newsletter, Soul Telegram: Movies & Meaning with her friend Irish storyteller Gareth Higgins.Kathleen's Book:Rebecca SueSubscribe to Our Substack: Shifting CultureConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

Greg McElroy delivers his Top 10 takeaways from week 3 of the college football season. Texas A&M is a legit contender - can they handle the expectations, while the “luck” of the Irish has not been on their side early this season - where does Notre Dame go from here? Georgia won on toughness, Tennessee looked really good (even in a loss) and LSU's offense isn't broken, it's just different. Did the ceilings for Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt change after big wins, can Clemson recover and what to make of the job openings at Virginia Tech and UCLA? All that and more plus some shoutouts on BOLD predictions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
In 2018, Mark Ashley-Miller bought a boat. There's nothing unusual in that, but there is in what happened next: he decided to sail around the coasts of Britain and Ireland, visiting every single harbour in the British Isles. And unlike most people who have such pipe dreams, he actually did it.The journey is now over, and we're delighted that Mark joined James Fisher on the Country Life Podcast to talk about his five years at sea, the 9,000 nautical miles he's sailed, and the 300+ harbourmasters he visited in the course of his epic journey. As well as talking through the inspiration for his trip, Mark talks about his favourite places on the route, the most hospitable harbourmasters, those who were rather frostier... and the one who immediately threw Mark and his crew the keys 'to go exploring' the local area before cracking open the Irish whiskey for a night of revelry. He also talks through the day he had to be rescued by the RNLI, and the few harbours that he wasn't able to make it in to — and why.Mark has written a book about his experiences, which is available to order now with all proceeds going to The Seafarers' Charity. You can find out more about Mark and his journey at his website or see his Instagram page.

Week 3 of the college football season is in the books and it did not lack drama. South Bend was rocking as #8 Notre Dame hosted #16 Texas A&M. A game that came down to a botched PAT and a late TD saw the Aggies upset the Irish 41-40. Ross Dellenger was in attendance and chats with Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey about the scene. They discuss how good this A&M team really is and if Notre Dame can overcome this 0-2 start or if their playoff hopes are gone.Another game that came down to the wire saw #6 Georgia squeak past #15 Tennessee in an overtime thriller. Joey Aguilar and Gunner Stockton have been standouts for their respective teams this season and the guys chat about the impact both of these quarterbacks are having. They also discuss the parity in the SEC and how competitive the conference is this season from top to bottom.Later, the guys discuss the scene at Brian Kelly's LSU press conference following their win over Florida. They analyze whether Kelly was justified at being upset by the first question asked to him, how LSU's offense needs to improve as the season goes on and the expectations on Kelly in year 4 at LSU. Finally, the guys take a look at the quarterbacks everyone was talking about coming into the season and discuss why they seem to be struggling at the beginning of the year. Were the evaluations severely incorrect, or is it too early in the season to pass judgement on some of these quarterbacks? Plus, Andy, Ross and Steven discuss the new world of quarterback transfers. May the trend of bringing in a top qb prospect and his offensive coordinator begin to increase? Evidence suggests this may be the way of the future.Get your Week 3 recap from College Football Enquirer.(2:45) - #16 Texas A&M upsets #8 Notre Dame(17:43) - #6 Georgia survives #15 Tennessee(22:54) - What do we know about the SEC after three weeks?(31:04) - Brian Kelly sounds off on the media(49:51) - What QBs may be overrated?(54:48) - New wave of OC/QB transfer combo(58:29) - Teams who may be looking for a new coach(1:02:03) - Other notable games from the weekend Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:
