This episode begins at the ancient seven-arch bridge in Killaloe, the crossing point where Clare, Tipp and Limerick collide, and jumps to Višegrad in eastern Bosnia, where Ivo Andrić's The Bridge on the Drina uses one structure to tell a five-century story of tribes, trade, love, and conflict. Back in Ireland, the row over closing the old Killaloe bridge is about suburban sprawl swallowing once-separate towns and turning them into commuter satellites. Ireland has built a low-density model that forces people into cars, clogs villages with traffic, and makes the whole system fragile. Just 13% of Irish people live in apartments, compared to 46% across Europe, and the gap between where jobs and services are concentrated and where people actually live is now being paid for in time, congestion, and quality of life. So where do you look for a better model? Japan. We end in the Tokyo–Yokohama mega-region, 38 million people living densely, safely, and efficiently, and ask why Ireland keeps choosing a “rainbelt” version of American car sprawl, instead of building compact, mixed-use neighbourhoods that let people live near where they work, study and socialise.

For it's 150th episode, Irish Stew podcast welcomes back a clear-eyed optimist for troubled times, Michael J. Dowling. Glucksman Ireland House is honoring him with the Outstanding Public Service and Lifetime Contribution to Public Health Award at its New York City Gala on Tuesday, March 3, 2026. After decades of work transforming Northwell Health into an American healthcare leader, Michael has segued into a CEO Emeritus role, but it sounds nothing like retirement. “Life is a series of changes, a series of journeys,” says the former top-class hurler from Knockaderry, Co. Limerick. “I have stepped down, but I haven't stepped away. I could never retire. I enjoy the battles. I'm working at Northwell full-time for the next two years on the succession with the new leadership team.”On the episode hosted by John Lee, Michael shares his well-honed views on compassionate leadership, how to address social media's effect on youth mental health, the promise of healthcare progress, the impact of the Irish on U.S. history, immigration's enduring value, why the US must continue to be a beacon for democracy globally, and his commitment to Irish America.“I want to spend a portion of my time continuing to build and enhance the Irish influence in the United States and vice versa.”Listening to the episode, it's easy to see why New York University's Glucksman Ireland House chose to honor Michael at its Gala at New York's Mandarin Hotel. For Michael, the admiration is mutual.“Glucksman House is at the center of Irish and Irish‑American studies. It reminds us about heritage, history, and contribution,” he says. “Loretta Glucksman is an icon, an extraordinary individual. And it's not just her work here in the US, it is her work in Ireland, too, and all she does to bring people together and promote a sense of humility, strength, and kindness to the world around us.”What's next for Michael Dowling? He tells of his work in youth mental health addressing the perils of “so many young people living in a virtual world and not living in the real world,” the book he's writing on leadership fueled by optimism, and his plans to deepen involvement with Irish institutions in the US and in Ireland. “We need more people to be spokespersons about the values of decency and respect and humanity and caring,” he says.Irish Stew is off to DC this weekend to be the Podcast in Residence at the Solas Nua Capital Irish Film Festival, Feb. 26-Mar. 1.

A small detail on an official document has sparked a wider question about identity and geography in the Mid-West. Pádraig Langsch from Shannon took to social media after his mother's renewed driver's licence listed her address as “Tullyvarraga, Shannon, Limerick.” Now, we've all noticed over the years the Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa listed as being in “Limerick,” despite actually being located in Clare. Meanwhile, parts of UL straddle the border, and even Shannon Airport has incorrectly been referred to as being in the Limerick. Pádraig joined Alan Morrissey to discuss this further.
Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, James Lawless TD, has today announced €2.6 million in phased funding for five research teams focused on renewable gas production, energy system integration and intelligent gas network technologies. The co-funded Research Ireland – Gas Networks Ireland Innovation Challenge brings together leading academic researchers with industry expertise to develop practical, scalable solutions for Ireland's future energy needs, while contributing to Ireland's climate and energy security objectives. The five successful teams are working to develop solutions which will improve the efficiency, efficacy and commercial viability of biomethane and biohydrogen production, accelerate the integration of renewable gases into the Irish energy system and develop AI-based solutions for intelligent gas network performance diagnostics. Minister James Lawless said: "I am delighted to announce the first cohort of teams to be co-funded under the Research Ireland – Gas Networks Ireland Innovation Challenge. This €2.6 million investment marks an important step in Ireland's journey toward a climate-neutral future. By bringing academics and industry together, this programme empowers world-class researchers to deliver practical, high-impact solutions in renewable gas and intelligent energy systems. It shows how targeted research investment can accelerate sustainability, bolster our energy security, and position Ireland as a global leader in research-driven innovation." A key aspect of the programme is the close collaboration between researchers and Gas Networks Ireland, ensuring innovations are grounded in real-world system needs. Each team will work with a dedicated Gas Networks Ireland liaison, supporting the development, testing and validation of solutions with the potential for deployment at scale. Dr Diarmuid O'Brien, CEO, Research Ireland, said: "I wish every congratulations to the five teams being funded as part of Research Ireland's partnership with Gas Networks Ireland. The research these teams are undertaking will support Ireland on the path to decarbonisation. Cross-sector collaboration is vital for Ireland to meet its national commitments to be climate-neutral by 2050. The Challenge model of embedding end users into the team and engaging with key stakeholders from the project outset will help ensure that real and tangible impacts are delivered. I look forward to seeing the teams progress their solutions over the coming months." Bobby Gleeson, Chief Operations Officer at Gas Networks Ireland, said: "These projects represent innovation in action – turning cutting-edge research into solutions that can strengthen Ireland's energy system, improve resilience and support our journey to net zero. Supporting key research through our Gas Innovation Fund and working directly with these teams allows us to accelerate the development of technologies that will help decarbonise Ireland's gas network while enabling the integration of renewable gases at scale."

The good times keep on rolling for the Rebels, after a brilliant and nail-biting victory over Meath at Páirc Uí Rinn on Sunday.It means John Cleary's side are in pole position for promotion from Division 2, 10 years after falling out of the top flight. It was the footballers' fourth win on the bounce and against one of their rivals to go up, which could prove crucial if head-to-head standings come into play.Most importantly, it was a game in which Cork coped with the weight of expectation, in front of a crowd of over 6,000, and despite losing captain Ian Maguire to a red card in the last quarter.Now they needed a few last-ditch tackles, from Daniel O'Mahony, Seán Meehan and Luke Fahy, in the last play, to deny Meath a match-winning goal.Chris Óg Jones hit the net and led the scoring but rookie Dara Sheedy, Mark Cronin, Seán McDonnell and Steven Sherlock all chipped in as well. The Cork forward line is looking the most balanced it has for quite some time, especially when you consider Brian Hurley was injured.Cork's mettle will be fully tested up in Derry next Sunday though, as the Ulster side have been on song since a surprise loss in their opening game. They still have Kildare at home before finishing the campaign away to Tyrone and just one win could be enough to secure a top-two finish.The big thing is Cork now have genuine momentum and got the public behind them. That could be significant come championship.On the ladies football front, Cork are also unbeaten. They beat Kerry on the road and take on Waterford next weekend in a battle of the table-toppers. Emma Cleary is captaining Joe Carroll's side, who have adapted well on their return to Division 1.The hurlers had a couple of weekends off but return with a bang to start March, as Ben O'Connor's charge are away to Kilkenny and then six days later go to Limerick, who blew Tipp away in Thurles.A victory in Nowlan Park would near guarantee a league final appearance, given Cork have Offaly at home to come. It looks like Cork and Limerick are on a collision course.Now in its fourth season, every week Éamonn Murphy is joined by The Echo team, including Barry O'Mahony, Denis Hurley, Rory Noonan, Jack McKay, John Horgan and more to discuss all the latest Cork GAA news on and off the field.

Jack Horgan-Jones and Pat Leahy join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:· The sharp criticism that greeted a review of allocation of special needs assistants in schools around the country prompted a hasty retreat by Government. The review has now been paused which should buy the Government some time to soothe tensions.· The Government are yet to act on their own voiced concerns around under-16s using social media. The problems arising from children using these platforms has been thoroughly diagnosed, but what will actually be put in place to address them?· Ireland's only directly-elected mayor, Limerick mayor John Moran, is finding it difficult to achieve what he has set out to do in his role, and has questioned whether there is a strategy in place to “create sufficient pressure that I might simply walk away”.· The International Protection Bill is quickly working its way through the Dáil to be in place by June, in time for the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum which will take effect then.· And splashed across every front page on the planet this week was former British prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor who had been detained by police on suspicion of misconduct in public office.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· A revolt against Microsoft in a small German state (which Hugh fully supports), doyen of the Irish business world Michael Smurfit, and the street sweepers who keep Dhaka in Bangladesh ticking over.Would you like to receive daily insights into world events delivered to your inbox?

Research to develop future approaches and strategies for the use of AI-generated software code in academia and industry is to be conducted by Lero, Ireland's top software research centre, at University of Limerick (UL). The research project will seek to understand how Generative AI and its related software development practices will impact future programmer knowledge, deployment of cognitive models and the strategies used by engineers for the development and comprehension of software systems both in industry and academic settings. The project, led by Lero researchers within the Immersive Software Engineering Program (ISE) at UL, will explore how computer science education is evolving in response to emerging technologies, with a particular focus on preparing students for careers in modern software development. The project aims to develop strategies to enable educators to integrate and deploy artificial intelligence (AI) based code-generation tools and practices into curriculum design and delivery. Professor Chris Exton, Academic Director of ISE at University of Limerick, who will lead the research team, with Professor Jim Buckley and Dr. James Patten, said: "This research will help us understand how to best prepare students for careers where technology is constantly evolving. We are examining fundamental questions about how students learn and develop the skills they need to succeed in a software industry that is rapidly changing due to AI." The project is supported by Amazon Web Services (AWS) and builds on UL's existing collaboration with the company. In August 2022,UL announced the launch of its Global Fellowships programme as part of its BSc/MSc in Immersive Software Engineering, which is funded through a philanthropic gift from AWS, allowing UL to establish and fully fund the programme in perpetuity. The collaboration between UL and AWS has brought global thought leaders from industry and academia to Limerick, reshaping computer science education and research in Ireland. Lero General Manager, Joe Gibbs, added: "This research project will enhance our understanding of software education's future. We're grateful for AWS's continued support in enabling our researchers to pursue important questions about how we prepare the next generation of software professionals." Ian McGarry, Director at AWS in Ireland, said: "AWS is committed to supporting independent research that advances and transforms computer science education. We're pleased to expand our collaboration with the University of Limerick to enable this important work." See more stories here.

Gardaí are investigating a Limerick sting by “Justice Reborn” – a paedophile hunter group that confronted a man they claim was sexually messaging who he thought was a 13-year-old… and streamed the whole thing live on Facebook.So do you support these groups taking the law into their own hands… or are they risking violence, getting the wrong person, and wrecking any future court case? Adrian's main issue: why broadcast it live and potentially prejudice a trial.Callers are split down the middle. Some say the guards don't have the resources and the public needs to know who these creeps are. Others warn about entrapment, fair trial rights, and innocent people being destroyed online.

The work draws upon a diversity of rare primary sources, including documents, photos, and publications.
