But as the PSNI was able to prove, he had in fact pre-recorded hours of himself playing the game. Police found that when he hit “play”, he set off to his girlfriend's house in Armagh where he savagely murdered her.The case against McCullagh was built on circumstantial evidence, so for Natalie's devastated family, conviction was not certain.Seanín Graham is Northern Correspondent of The Irish Times and she was in court in Belfast for the trial.She tells In the News she has never before witnessed such emotional scenes in court as when the guilty verdict was handed down on Monday.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Just days before Christmas in 2022, Natalie McNally was found murdered in her home in Lurgan, Northern Ireland. Fifteen weeks pregnant with her first child, her death devastated her family and stunned investigators. At first, Natalie's boyfriend, Stephen McCullagh, appeared to have an unbreakable alibi. While the murder was believed to have taken place, he seemed to be livestreaming a video game to thousands of viewers online. But as detectives dug deeper, digital forensic evidence revealed that the livestream had been carefully staged. In this episode of True Crime Recaps, we break down the investigation, the digital evidence that unraveled the deception, and how a meticulously planned alibi ultimately collapsed in court.

Alexandra Eala vs Caty McNally — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their THIRD ROUND clash at the 2026 National Bank Open (WTA 1000 Canadian Open) in Toronto. The Washington champion against the woman who just took out the Wimbledon champion. First career meeting.Alex Eala arrives in Toronto as the hottest player on tour. Days after becoming the FIRST FILIPINA to win a WTA singles title — beating Jessica Pegula 4-6, 6-4, 6-0 in the DC Open final after knocking out Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina and Naomi Osaka — the 21-year-old is now World No. 20 and seeded 25th here. She extended her winning streak to six with a 6-1, 4-6, 6-2 win over Alycia Parks in the second round. The question is simple: how much is left in the tank?Caty McNally is the draw's disruptor. Ranked No. 70 after one of the great ranking climbs in recent memory — she was outside the top 1000 in September 2024 — the American just stunned sixth seed and Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova 7-6(5), 6-1. It was her second career top-10 win and her 22nd tour-level victory of the season, already a career high. Her doubles-honed hands, variety and returning make her a genuinely awkward opponent for anyone.They have never played each other. Momentum versus momentum. Who reaches the round of 16?

In this episode of Dismantling You, I sit down with Dr. Stephanie McNally, a women's health physician affiliated with the Katz Institute for Women's Health at Northwell Health. We pull back the curtain on the parts of women's health that so often go unspoken: fertility, perimenopause, menopause, and the hormonal shifts that shape how we feel at every stage. Dr. McNally explains why so many women misread their own bodies, how the birth control pill can mask underlying hormonal patterns, and why regular cycles do not automatically mean everything is fine underneath. We also talk about the importance of listening to your body and getting curious instead of dismissing symptoms as just stress or aging.From there we go deep on hormone therapy and why the science has been so badly misunderstood for decades, including what newer research suggests about heart and cognitive protection when therapy starts at the right time. We unpack the truth about menopause weight gain and metabolism, why sleep should be treated as a vital sign, and how mood, anxiety, and hormones are far more connected than most of us were ever taught. Dr. McNally also speaks candidly about access to care, the cultural silence around women's health, and why she has had to unlearn parts of her own training along the way. It is an honest, myth busting conversation that will leave you better equipped to advocate for yourself and ask sharper questions at your next appointment.Key Highlights
Stephen McCullagh will do at least 31 years of jail time before he is even considered for release. 32-year-old Natalie McNally had been 15 weeks pregnant when she was subjected to a violent attack and murdered at her home in Lurgan in December 2022. The judge, Mr Justice Kinney, told McCullagh that he committed a “brutal senseless murder and planned it in remorseless detail.” “The killing was cold blooded and calculated.” McCullagh tried to pin the murder on Lewis Jones, Natalie's ex-partner, after having set up a false alibi. But the jury rejected that and found McCullagh guilty of the murder at Belfast Crown Court earlier this year. Kurtis Reid was in court for the tariff hearing.

Rory Johnston welcomes legendary energy analyst Bob McNally to Oil Ground Up for a sweeping conversation on the Strait of Hormuz crisis, global oil supply disruptions, and the fragile state of today's energy markets. Bob reflects on decades of experience spanning the White House, hedge funds, and energy consulting while explaining why the closure of Hormuz represents a historic shift in how the world must think about oil security and geopolitical risk. The discussion dives deep into Iran's leverage over global energy flows, the growing disconnect between physical oil fundamentals and financial markets, and why many traders may still be underestimating the long-term consequences of this disruption. Rory and Bob also explore what reopening Hormuz could realistically look like, why inventories and shipping flows remain critical, and how this crisis may permanently reshape investment in global hydrocarbons. From oil demand destruction and rising geopolitical premiums to the future of North American energy dominance, this episode offers one of the most comprehensive macro discussions yet on the evolving global energy landscape.

This week, we welcome and spotlight community worker, homelessness advocate, and candidate for Toronto City Council, Diana Chan McNally. We discuss Chan McNally's run to become City Councillor for Toronto's Ward 4, Parkdale-High Park, top-of-mind issues for the Ward and the city, provincial encroachment on municipal government and her vision of bringing community work to municipal politics. Chan McNally says: "Part of why I'm running too, I also very much do not appreciate the provincial encroachment on municipalities. I have a history of fighting Ford. I have won resources from Ford, including $54 million for rents for people on the streets. Managed to win that from his government And I am ready to just let it rip against this guy because of his constant encroachment on our autonomy municipally, not just here, across the entire province. Strong Mayor powers. He's appointing regional councils instead of having them elected. The trustees, cutting them and then putting them under supervision. All of this is about taking away local democracy. It makes me so angry that I want to fight back as well and defend the city against what he's doing." About today's guest: Diana Chan McNally (she/they) is a former graduate and faculty member of the Community Worker Program at George Brown Polytechnic in Toronto, a long-time front-line worker, and a housing and harm reduction advocate. Chan McNally is currently running for Toronto City Council in Ward 4 Parkdale—High Park.

In moments of geopolitical crisis, energy is never just a backdrop. It's often at the center of the story. Today, as conflict involving Iran sends shockwaves through global oil markets and raises fears of supply disruptions, the stakes for policymakers in Washington couldn't be higher. Prices are rising, risks are multiplying. And as we've seen in recent weeks, there are no easy solutions when energy and national security collide. So what does effective decision-making look like inside the White House at times like these? Today on the show, to help answer that question, Bill Loveless speaks with Bob McNally and Jason Bordoff. Both of them served as energy advisors during past US administrations. They joined Bill to reflect on what they learned about navigating energy crises from inside the White House. Bob McNally is the founder and president of Rapidan Energy Group, an independent energy consulting and market advisory firm. From 2001 to 2003 he served on the White House National Economic Council as special assistant to President George W. Bush. And in 2003, he was the senior director for international energy on the National Security Council. His 2017 book, Crude Volatility: The History and the Future of Boom Bust Oil Prices, examines the history of oil price swings. Jason Bordoff is Columbia Energy Exchange co-host and the founding director of the Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University School of International and Public Affairs, where he is a professor of professional practice. He is also on the faculty of the Columbia Climate School where he is co-founding dean emeritus. He previously served as special assistant to President Barack Obama and senior director for energy and climate change on the staff of the National Security Council.

If You’re Alive You Still Have a Mission Many people reach a point in life where they feel they have hit a ceiling. You've worked hard, checked the boxes, and achieved your goals, yet there is a nagging sense that the excitement has faded. David McNally, in his profound book If You're Alive Your Mission on Earth Isn't Finished, argues that this isn’t the end of the road, but a call to a higher purpose. If you are still here, it is because there is a unique contribution only you can make, regardless of your age or current professional status. McNally's philosophy challenges the traditional notion of “slowing down.” He suggests that while we might retire from a specific job, we never truly retire from our human mission. The secret to lasting fulfillment lies in shifting your focus from accumulation to contribution. It is about recognizing that your accumulated wisdom and unique talents are valuable assets that the world still needs. By viewing your life as a continuous series of missions, you move beyond the ego and into a space of meaningful service. Resilience plays a starring role in this journey toward a new chapter. We often view setbacks as signs that we should stop, but McNally reframes these challenges as essential training. Every obstacle you have overcome has equipped you with a specific set of tools to help others navigate their own paths. By looking back at your experiences through this lens, you can find the fuel necessary to launch into a more significant mission rather than simply fading into the background of your own life. I am incredibly excited to explore these themes in depth during my upcoming interview with David on my show, A New Direction. We will be discussing how to rediscover your drive and ensure your “best days” are always ahead of you. Join us for a conversation that promises to reignite your fire and clarify your path forward. Your mission isn’t over—it is likely just getting started. David McNally’s book, “If You’re Alive: Your Mission on Earth Isn’t Finished” is one of the most eye opening books when it comes to understanding your life’s journey into aging and finding your mission and purpose. For many of us of all ages we just don’t know what we want to do with our lives. We don’t have a mission or a purpose, and this can cause us to just exist and not truly thrive. If You’re Alive encourages us to rethink about ourselves. Take a deeper dive into curiosity. And understand that regardless of our stage of life our mind is our greatest asset. While our bodies over time may not be able to accomplish the same things, our ability to exercise our mind and grow and get stronger mentally will never stop if we are willing to push the limits. David, takes us through some fundamental mindshifts such as resolving our past. How? Through forgiveness. And he cautions us that this is not easy, but necessary. Sure you may have been hurt, but by holding on to the past pain others are still hurting us. And the number one person we need to forgive is ourselves. The biggest takeaway I think in this book is discovering our purpose. It’s findinig what you are interested in and passionate about. What you enjoy doing. What comes easy to you.

Start Dominating You weren’t built to play it safe. You already know what average looks like. You’ve watched it sit in meetings, nod along, and clock out at five. You’ve seen it settle for “good enough” and call it a career. And something inside you — maybe it’s quiet, maybe it’s screaming — refuses to accept that as your ceiling. That’s not ambition. That’s your signal. The distance between where you are and where you know you’re capable of being isn’t talent. It isn’t luck. It’s the space between knowing what to do and actually executing at the level your potential demands. And that gap? It doesn’t close on its own. The Truth Nobody Tells High Performers Here’s what the leadership books leave out: the strategies that got you here won’t get you there. The habits, the mindset, the way you manage your energy and your influence — all of it needs to evolve. Not because you’re broken. Because you’re ready for more. Every elite athlete has a coach. Every world-class CEO has an advisor in their corner. Not because they’re weak — because they understand that the highest performers on the planet don’t go it alone. What Changes When You Stop Going It Alone Working with an executive performance coach isn’t about fixing problems. It’s about unlocking the version of you that operates with total clarity, relentless focus, and the kind of presence that shifts the energy in every room you walk into. Imagine making decisions faster — and with more confidence. Leading teams that don’t just follow you, but run through walls for you. Waking up on Monday with the same fire you feel on Friday night when you’re planning your next move. That’s not fantasy. That’s what happens when you get serious about your performance. Your Move You’ve read this far for a reason. That reason matters. Don’t let this be another article you agree with and forget by tomorrow. Take the first step right now:

Stephen McCullagh (36) thought he had created a cast iron alibi for himself when he planned the murder of his pregnant girlfriend Natalie McNally (32) in December 2022.An avid gamer he was, he claimed, at home playing a video game live at the time she was killed. But as the PSNI was able to prove, he had in fact pre-recorded hours of himself playing the game. Police found that when he hit “play”, he set off to his girlfriend's house in Armagh where he savagely murdered her.The case against McCullagh was built on circumstantial evidence, so for Natalie's devastated family, conviction was not certain.Seanín Graham is Northern Correspondent of The Irish Times and she was in court in Belfast for the trial.She tells In the News she has never before witnessed such emotional scenes in court as when the guilty verdict was handed down on Monday.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Declan Conlon and Suzanne Brennan. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
William and guests discuss the verdict, deception, and impact of the case.
There were cries of relief from the family of Natalie McNally yesterday, as the jury convicted Stephen McCullagh of killing his 32-year-old partner in her Lurgan home in December 2022. During the four-week trial, the prosecution claimed that McCullagh murdered Ms McNally after setting up a “false alibi” that he was livestreaming a video gaming session on YouTube.

בפרק זה של הפודקאסט "על המשמעות" עו"ד תמיר דורטל מארח את פרופסור ריצ'רד מקנלי, פסיכולוג קליני ופרופסור במחלקה לפסיכולוגיה באוניברסיטת הרווארד, לשיחה על "מלחמות הזיכרון", טראומה וזיכרונות מודחקים.מה קורה כשזיכרון, טראומה, טיפול ותקשורת מתערבבים זה בזה? פרופ' מקנלי מהרווארד, אחד החוקרים הבולטים בעולם בשאלות של זיכרון, שכחה, טראומה ופגיעות מיניות בילדות, מדבר על השאלה הנפיצה באמת: האם אפשר “להדחיק” זיכרון טראומטי לשנים ארוכות ואז לשלוף אותו מחדש? עד כמה זיכרון אנושי הוא דבר אמין, ועד כמה הוא גמיש, פגיע להשפעה, ולעתים גם לעיוות?בשנות ה-90 הסעירה את עולם הפסיכולוגיה תופעה שבה מטופלים החלו "להיזכר" בטראומות ילדות קשות, לרוב של התעללות מינית, בעקבות טיפול פסיכולוגי שכלל היפנוזה ודמיון מודרך. פרופ' מקנילי לוקח אותנו למסע אל תוך המנגנונים הקוגניטיביים של הזיכרון האנושי. בראיון הוא מציג את מחקריו פורצי הדרך שבדקו האם הדחקה היא מנגנון ביולוגי אמיתי, או שמא מדובר בזיכרונות שווא שנוצרו בקליניקה.עבודתו של מקנלי עסקה בנקודת המפגש בין טראומה אמיתית מאוד לבין מחלוקות קשות על הדרך שבה זיכרונות נוצרים, נשכחים, וחוזרים. השיחה הזו נהיית עוד יותר אקטואלית על רקע הכותרות האחרונות סביב טענות על פגיעות מאורגנות וטקסיות. בבריטניה, למשל, דווח לאחרונה על עלייה בדיווחים כאלה ועל ויכוח גובר סביב הדרך שבה נפגעים מספרים את סיפורם, הדרך שבה מערכות האכיפה מתייחסות אליהם, וגם התפקיד של שיח ציבורי, טיפול ושאלות זיכרון בתוך כל זה.00:00:00 פתיחה והצגת פרופסור ריצ'רד מקנלי00:00:20 מלחמות הזיכרון: הרקע ההיסטורי של שנות ה-9000:02:19 הפרדוקס: מנגנון הדחקה מול הורמוני דחק בטראומה00:05:00 ארבע קבוצות המחקר: מנפגעי טראומה ועד "זיכרונות מודחקים"00:07:39 ניסוי המילים: האם קיימת יכולת הדחקה מיוחדת?00:09:35 זיכרונות שווא: הממצאים מהמעבדה הקוגניטיבית00:12:17 זיכרונות משוחזרים שאינם מודחקים: פרשנות מחדש בבגרות00:19:12 מטרת הפסיכולוגיה: רדיפת צדק או אושר המטופל?00:24:21 ג'ונתן היידט והנזק שבהגנת יתר על ילדים00:27:01 גישת ה-CBT: משתנים יוזמים מול משתנים משמרים#פודקאסט #על_המשמעותSupport the showתוכנית המנויים "על המשמעות פלוס" ➕: https://bit.ly/MashmaPlus גישה מוקדמת לפרקים

The 2026 St. Charles St. Patrick's Parade is almost here so we thought it would be fun to bring in some cool guests that raise the woof. In our first segment, we talked with Brian McNally, the owner of McNally's Heating & Cooling, as we talked about his community involvement and being the presenting sponsor of the STC St. Patrick's Parade. We also talked with Jeanne Jardien and her dog, Traveler, as we got to learn more about the Western Irish Setter Club and what Jeanne and Traveler are looking forward to most about this year's parade.
Many real estate agents spend their careers helping others build wealth—but never build their own. In this episode, Kathy Fettke talks with Bay Area real estate agent Olivia McNally about why agents should also become investors. Olivia shares her journey from a six-figure government job to real estate sales, how she learned the business from the ground up, and why she's now focused on flipping homes, buying rentals, and building long-term wealth. They also discuss the realities of today's San Francisco housing market and why agents need both income and investments to succeed long term.
The labor market is evolving faster than traditional signals of competence can keep up. Roles are shifting, technology is accelerating, and employers are searching for clearer ways to identify real capability. In that environment, degrees remain valuable, but verified skills are becoming increasingly central to hiring and advancement.In a marketplace now saturated with more than a million credentials, clarity has become the differentiator. Some credentials function as marketing tools. Others function as infrastructure for trust. The difference lies in independence, rigor, defensibility, and industry validation.In this conversation with Kathleen McNally, CEO of NOCTI, we explore how high-quality third-party credentials create reliable signals for employers, meaningful exit value for learners, and actionable tools for educators. From ISO-backed certification standards to performance testing and stackable micro-credentials, this episode reframes credentials as essential infrastructure for a more agile, skills-driven economy.In this Episode:Why employers are shifting from degree-first to skills-aware hiringWhat separates a participation badge from a legally defensible certificationHow micro-credentials create flexibility without sacrificing rigorHow “exit value” changes the way we think about graduationWhy performance-based assessment strengthens workforce confidence3 Big Takeaways1. Verified credentials are strengthening the signal in a fast-moving labor market. As job roles evolve more quickly than traditional degree cycles, employers are seeking precise indicators of job-ready capability. Third-party certifications developed with national industry input provide measurable proof of occupational and technical competency.2. Quality and independence determine whether a credential carries real weight. With more than a million credentials available, rigor is what separates noise from trust. ISO-aligned, legally defensible certifications built through independent subject matter experts reduce hiring risk and create consistency across regions and employers.3. Micro-credentials are enabling lifelong learning with structure and momentum. Stackable certifications allow learners to document specific competencies at any stage of their career. Whether entering the workforce, reskilling mid-career, or adding new capabilities such as AI literacy, credentials create flexible on-ramps and sustained pathways for advancemenWe want to hear from you!
