We talked about the latest from Spring Training, discussed the new faces in new places in the National League, and Sammy Lev!

Quick recap In this episode of the Amazing Cities and Towns podcast, host Jim interviewed Michael Hingson, a blind speaker and author who shared his experiences on 9/11 and his broader life story. Michael discussed his work as a computer company executive in the World Trade Center on 9/11, where he and his guide dog Roselle survived the terrorist attacks by following emergency procedures and evacuation protocols. They also explored Michael's perspective on disability rights, technology's role in accessibility, and his work as a public speaker. The conversation highlighted Michael's philosophy on overcoming challenges and his views on artificial intelligence and its potential benefits for people with disabilities. Jim expressed admiration for Michael's leadership and resilience, and they discussed the importance of adapting to new technologies and maintaining a positive outlook despite obstacles. Summary Surviving 9/11 as a Blind Leader Jim interviews Michael Hingson, who shares his experience as a blind person who survived the 9/11 attacks in the World Trade Center. Michael describes how he and his guide dog Roselle evacuated Tower 1 after the plane hit, emphasizing that his blindness did not prevent him from understanding the situation. They discuss Michael's subsequent leadership and speaking career, with Jim mentioning potential future speaking opportunities through the National League of Cities. Surviving 9/11: A Blind Man's Story Michael shared his experience of surviving the September 11 attacks as a blind person, highlighting how his preparation and training helped him remain calm and focused during the evacuation. He described how his guide dog, Roselle, played a crucial role in keeping him and others calm, and how he used his knowledge of the World Trade Center to navigate the building during the emergency. Michael has since become a public speaker, sharing lessons learned from his experiences about teamwork, trust, leadership, and emergency preparedness. Michael's Journey with Thunderdog Michael discussed his experiences with writing and publishing two books, "Thunderdog" and "Live Like a Guy Dog." He shared how "Thunderdog" came about after meeting George Berger at the American Kennel Club Canine Yukanuba Dog Show in 2002, and how Susie Flory encouraged him to write the book. Michael explained that the book was published by Thomas Nelson in 2011 and became a New York Times bestseller. He emphasized the importance of the book in teaching people about blindness and challenging attitudes towards blind people, highlighting the high unemployment rate among employable blind individuals. Overcoming Challenges with Technology and Choice Michael shared his personal story of being born blind and overcoming obstacles, emphasizing the importance of choices and technology in his life. He discussed the concept of disability as a characteristic that everyone has, and highlighted how the Americans with Disabilities Act has provided accommodations that benefit everyone, not just those with disabilities. Jim agreed with Michael's perspective, noting how the ADA has opened doors for people with disabilities and should be seen as a natural part of society. Challenges in Accessibility Today Michael discussed the ongoing challenges of accessibility, highlighting how the Americans with Disabilities Act has made significant progress but still faces numerous battles. He shared personal anecdotes about his wife's experiences with accessibility issues and his own encounters with discrimination, emphasizing the need for societal recognition of these challenges. Michael also explained the importance of making internet websites accessible, noting that only about 3% of websites are currently accessible. He praised Apple's innovative approach to accessibility, particularly with their VoiceOver technology, while suggesting that more could be done to ensure all apps are accessible. AI's Role and Future Potential Jim and Michael discussed the role and potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in various aspects of life. Michael emphasized that AI is a valuable tool that can enhance accessibility, improve vaccine development, and assist in education by helping students learn rather than just using AI to write papers. They also talked about the progress and future of autonomous vehicles, with Jim highlighting the potential benefits for elderly people and Michael sharing his experience driving a Tesla with AI assistance. Both agreed that while AI has made significant strides, it is still in its early stages and will continue to improve over time. Guide Dogs and AI Technologies Michael discussed his experiences with guide dogs, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and trust between the handler and the dog. He explained that guide dogs are trained to ensure safe navigation, not to lead the handler, and described how he communicates with his dogs using a harness. Michael also highlighted the role of AI in assisting people with disabilities, mentioning technologies like Echo Vision glasses and the IRA (Artificial Intelligent Remote Assistant) service. He concluded by sharing his approach to interacting with the public, including allowing petting of his guide dogs when time permits. Michael's Speaking Career Promotion Jim and Michael discussed Michael's speaking career, emphasizing that his story transcends 9/11 and covers themes of life, persistence, and inspiration. Jim expressed his admiration for Michael's speaking skills and offered to promote his services to various organizations.

Cork's Laura Hayes is very familiar with the Galway senior team, even if getting a chance to see the city on a non-match day is a novelty.  She was next to chat to Darren.

Leading up to the game, Galway forward and two-time All-Star Niamh Mallon chatted to Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly and she couldn't hide the smile when reflecting on the All-Ireland success.

Dublin's Aisling Maher is glad to be back looking forward to action after a dramatic year for camogie in general and a disappointing one for Dublin.

Laois are back in intermediate camogie following their All-Ireland premier junior title win last year and have a Division 2A campaign ahead.  But last year in Croke Park, Laois were back.

Last up was Armagh's Rachael Merry.  They have a bye in the opening round but, chatting to Darren, Rachael was enjoying her trip down west.

ON THIS week's podcast, we are joined by Three Red Kings' Tom Savage after Ireland's 36-14 defeat at the hands of France in Paris.This wasn't the greatest night for Andy Farrell's side as they started their 6 Nations campaign with a loss.Multiple questions came in the aftermath, mainly about where Irish rugby was going after such a damaging defeat.Savage delves into this and the ongoing debate of who should play out-half, Sam Prendergast or Innishannon's Jack Crowley.Teams who are going well though are Cork's inter-county GAA teams who are unbeaten across all codes in the National Leagues.The hurlers made it three wins from three last weekend in beating Tipperary (0-29 to 0-22), while the footballers hope to replicate that record when they travel to Offaly this Sunday.The LGFA side face Armagh and can go up to second with a win while the camogie team begin their season on Saturday when they make the trip to Waterford.

What does a Super Bowl win for Sam Darnold mean? How long did we spend talking about Darnold to the Steelers last offseason? It was fair to question if Darnold would flourish in Pittsburgh under Mike Tomlin and the shackles he's known to putting on the offense. But Tomlin is gone and Mike McCarthy is in. Does that give you faith the Steelers can find a reclamation project and reach the big game? Out of the names on the market, who can McCarthy thrive with? Is Malik Willis the frontrunner in this argument? What about Kyler Murray? Is there anyone else that tickles your fancy? Will there be another Sam Darnold in 2026? The first two callers suggested Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow being traded to the Steelers. Bucco Minute – The geeks love the Pirates in 2026. Fangraphs has their win projection at 82.8 – second in the NL Central. Their projection also has them as the 6th best team in the National League.

Clare's John Conlon After Down National League Win by Clare FM

William Hulbert had an idea. I mean, probably more than one, but one that really took off. And he made that idea a reality 150 years ago this week when he and seven other owners got together and founded the National League of Professional Baseball Clubs to replace the National Association of Baseball Players. It wasn't felt at first, but Hulbert's innovation was seismic, transforming baseball from a pasttime into big business. On this auspicious anniversary, Mike and Bill look back at Hulbert's life and his brainchild, and how he nursed the league through its infancy. Plus, happy birthday to Bake McBride and Candy Jim Taylor! And farewell to Steve Hertz, Tim Harkness, Mike Campbell, and Greg Thayer.

All four Galway teams are at home this weekend in the Domino's National Basketball Leagues (7th-8th February 2026). With a full preview, here's Galway Bay FM's Adrian O'Neill.

From Astro Boy to Gundam to real-world robots like ASIMO and Pepper, Japan's fascination with robots runs deep. This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan's modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that's equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

Ouch. A late winner conceded to the ten men of Barnet hurts. Oldham lost for the first time in seven games to the side that finished 30 points ahead of us in the National League last season. It was an entertaining game but not the result we wanted - is your glass half-empty or half-full?

The conversation shifts from vibes to numbers as Vegas steps in. Using FanDuel win totals, the guys break down how the Mets and Yankees are actually being viewed heading into the season and the results are eye-opening. The Yankees are still favorites in the American League despite a quiet offseason, while the Mets are suddenly sitting right behind the Dodgers as one of the top teams in the National League. That leads to a deeper debate about roster construction and expectations. Why the Mets trading for Freddy Peralta was a necessity, not a luxury. Why the Yankees passing on him made sense given their rotation depth. And why David Stearns may be closer to finishing his “painting” than fans want to admit. Calls pour in arguing whether a 90-win projection is fair, whether Peralta should be pushed deeper into games, and whether an extension changes everything. Plus, the crew reacts to how tightly bunched the NL really is behind the Dodgers and asks the question Mets fans cannot avoid anymore: if Vegas believes this team is real, do you?

James previews the AFC and NFC Championship games (4:49), Alex runs through his mid-season NBA tier rankings for the Eastern Conference (20:43), and Tyler continues his MLB cap rankings with the National League (53:32).

Episode #472: “Where is my grandmother's vote?!” asks Thiri. Her core argument is that Myanmar's struggle today is not a failed revolution, but the evolution of a long, cyclical people's movement, whose legitimacy most recently derives from a valid election overturned by the military, and from the accumulated sacrifice and sustained moral agency of ordinary people. For Thiri, the most powerful form of resistance now is preserving dignity, voice, and mutual care amid prolonged uncertainty. She grounds this argument in lived experience. Her grandmother, eighty-two at the time, insisted on voting in person in the November 2020 general election despite being eligible for early voting at home. On election day morning, she woke before dawn and went to the polling station to cast her ballot for the National League for Democracy; a week later, she died. She never witnessed the coup that overturned the election results, sparing her the pain of seeing what she regarded as a sacred civic duty rendered meaningless. For Thiri, the legitimacy crisis begins there: millions of votes, like her grandmother's, were cast in good faith but never honored. From this starting point, Thiri argues that any new election organized by the same military lacks moral and political legitimacy. She describes it as an attempt to erase their unresolved theft. Democracy, she insists, cannot be reset without reckoning with the original violation. The election matters deeply to the military and to some international actors seeking closure, but not to people living with airstrikes, displacement, and fear. To the junta, it functions as an exit strategy that just sustains their oppressive rule in the guise civilian governance. To put the despair surrounding these times in Myanmar in context, Thiri turns to movement theory. She describes movements as cyclical, marked by peaks of hope followed by repression and exhaustion. The downturn now, she emphasizes, is but a natural phase, and to not get overly caught up in it. Thiri believes the present moment calls for reflection, role clarity, and recognition of small victories that preserve people power. Survival itself becomes a form of resistance. She frames emotional self-preservation as defiance, concluding, “I would rather choose to remember the kindness and the community and the resilience of people that are against any form of oppression.”
