The season is over, the dust is settling and it's a busy podcast as Niall and Marley digest it all. Chelsea won the champions league shootout at the City Ground, although Gary Neville wasn't there to see it, as Levi Colwill's goal proved the difference to send the Blues into Europe's premier competition. Aston Villa missed out on a second consecutive appearance in the same competition though, as a controversial call in their game against Man United saw Morgan Rogers' goal chalked out. Is there a silver lining for the Villans though? Elsewhere, Spurs lost again, Newcastle rode their luck and we finally discuss the worst Europa League final ever that took place last week.

Tá Príomh Aire na Breataine den tuairim go bhfuil an tír tar éis déanamh go maith as an socrú atá aontaithe idir an Bhreatain agus an tAontas Eorpach.

In this episode, Niall asks whether 16-year-olds should be allowed to vote. The Social Democrats are set to table a bill to lower Ireland's voting age from 18 to 16 — but is that too young to make informed political decisions? Are today's teenagers engaged enough to help shape the future of the country, or are they being used as political pawns?Some callers argue that if 16-year-olds can work, pay taxes, and drive mopeds, they deserve a say in shaping policies that will affect them for decades — especially when it comes to climate, housing, and education.Others disagree, saying teenagers are still developing emotionally and intellectually, and shouldn't be handed responsibility over national decision-making. Some feel the proposal is less about civic empowerment and more about political strategy.As the lines light up, the debate gets heated, with strong views on both sides about maturity, responsibility, and what it really means to be ready to vote.

For the first time in their 119-year existence, Crystal Palace can call themselves FA Cup winners after a 1-0 win over Manchester City at Wembley on Saturday. The Eagles were inspired by a heroic Dean Henderson performance after Eberechi Eze's goal gave them something to hang on to in the first half, and Man City couldn't break down the Palace door despite their efforts. Elsewhere, Goodison Park hosted its final game before Everton move to "Hill Dickinson Stadium" - something that irked Niall in today's Get In The Sea nominations. The Toffees eased past miserable Southampton to mark the occasion with three points on a day where 100 former players were invited to say their goodbyes. Also over the weekend there was ups and downs in the race for the European places. Arsenal secured second while simultaneously making Newcastle's fate go down to the final day, Aston Villa and Forest earned vital points too, but Brentford threw away a lead to lose to Fulham in a local derby, all but ending their hopes of a Conference League place.

For tonight's programme, Niall Hatch joins us from the delightful town of Mandelieu-La Napoule on the French Riviera, close to Cannes. Niall is on the lookout for butterflies (with France home to around 250 types), birds and moths such as the Hummingbird Hawk-moth.

In this episode, Niall asks a hard question that many are afraid to voice: Are men and women truly treated equally in modern society? The discussion is sparked by an email from a male listener who says he was passed over for a management promotion in favour of a woman, despite having more experience and being told he was next in line. According to a friend in HR, the decision came down to gender — his company already had two male managers, and they "needed a woman" to balance the optics.The email raises deep questions about gender quotas, meritocracy, and whether attempts to correct historical imbalances are now causing new forms of discrimination.Some callers believe we are finally seeing long-overdue progress. They argue that women have spent decades fighting for space in male-dominated fields and that occasionally favouring a female candidate is part of addressing past injustice. For them, it's not about ignoring merit, but correcting systemic imbalance.Other callers strongly disagree, saying equality should never come at the expense of fairness. They feel gender quotas are increasingly being used to justify hiring decisions that overlook the most qualified person — and that this silent shift is leaving many men feeling sidelined and voiceless.

Pai has this laid-back charm and unexpected beauty that really took us by surprise.Adrie and I take you along as we explore some of Pai's must-see spots — and wow, what a day. We started with the National Park Hot Springs, where the water gets hot enough to boil eggs (or a human, seriously). Then we checked out the WWII Memorial Bridge (Nara Bridge), which has a surprisingly cool history behind it. After that, we made our way across the Bamboo Bridge (NAME), a nearly 1-kilometer-long structure built for the ‘Gram, complete with swings, hearts, and even a ladder to nowhere. Finally, we wrapped things up at the breathtaking — and slightly terrifying — Pai Canyon for sunset. It was beautiful, hilarious, a bit slippery, and definitely memorable.

Crystal Palace take on Manchester City on Saturday in arguably the biggest game in their history. In 119 years of existence, Palace haven't managed to win anything more than a second division title, and are up against Pep Guardiola's Citizens, who are hoping to salvage something from a poor season by their standards. Niall and Marley discuss whether this means more to Palace than it does to City, whether the Eagles have the right manager and squad in place to pull off the shock, and whether City have still had a poor season if they win the jug.

2 mates, Niall & Miki, discussing the day to day struggles in life, from a Man's point of view. This week the boys discuss another story from the crime files, The Night Stalker, Richard Ramirez. The Satan worshiper who terrorised the west coast of America in the 1980s.Hope you enjoy...Support the show

In 2016, Clodagh Hawe and her three sons, Liam (13), Niall (11) and Ryan (6) were murdered in their Co Cavan home, by their husband and father Alan Hawe, who took his own life shortly after. It was and still is Ireland's largest murder-suicide and the brutal killings sent shockwaves throughout the country. In her book, Deadly Silence, Clodagh's younger sister Jacqueline Connolly, gives her account of the circumstances leading up to the mass murder and how her brother-in-law, Hawe, coercively controlled and manipulated her unsuspecting sister. In this episode, Connolly talks to Róisín Ingle about the person Clodagh was, the relationship the pair had growing up and how their bond changed when Hawe entered their lives. She also talks about her family's painful search for answers in the aftermath of the killings and the critical failures in the initial Garda investigation. But first, Irish Times Opinion editor Jennifer O'Connell is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week, including the conviction for sexual assault of actor Gérard Depardieu. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode, Niall asks: Should learner drivers be allowed to drive unaccompanied? The debate heats up after Fianna Fáil TD Cathal Crowe suggested that current rules — which require learners to be accompanied by a fully licensed driver — are too restrictive, especially for students and young people living in rural areas.Supporters of relaxing the law say it's a practical move. In rural Ireland, public transport is limited, and many young people are left stranded or dependent on others for the simplest tasks — from getting to work, to attending college, or even visiting the GP. They argue that responsible learner drivers, especially those with some experience or awaiting a delayed test, should be trusted to drive alone under certain conditions.On the other hand, critics warn that relaxing the law could be dangerous. They argue that L-plate drivers lack the experience and judgment to drive solo, and the current system exists for a reason — to protect everyone on the road. Some callers highlight the increase in road deaths and say safety should come before convenience. If learners want independence, they say, they should wait until they pass the test.This episode weighs freedom against responsibility and rural need against national safety. Where do you stand?

Niall is doing amazing work with street dogs in ThailandDublin man, Niall Harbison has devoted his life to rescuing Street Dogs In Thailand and his story is incredible. He joined Dave for a chat about his new book - 'Tina: The Dog Who Changed the World'.

In this episode, Niall explores a deeply taboo question: Do people ever regret having children? It's a topic most parents are too ashamed or afraid to speak about publicly—but for some, the feeling is real.The conversation begins with an email from a listener who admits they love their children but quietly wonder what life might've looked like without them. The exhaustion, financial strain, loss of freedom, and relationship breakdowns have left them questioning whether parenthood was the right path.Callers respond with brutal honesty.Some say it's a thought they've had late at night when the pressure becomes too much. They talk about how parenthood isn't always the joyful, fulfilling journey it's made out to be—especially when support is lacking or when it comes at the cost of identity and dreams.Others are outraged by the very idea, calling it selfish or ungrateful. To them, children are a blessing, not a burden, and regret is a luxury some can't afford to entertain. They believe that even in hard times, the love and purpose parenting brings outweighs any fleeting doubts.This episode pulls no punches. It's raw, emotional, and brutally honest—shining a light on one of the last parenting taboos.Date:14/05/2025

In this episode, Niall asks: Should Ireland pay illegal migrants to leave the country? The discussion comes after Donald Trump announced plans to offer flights to help undocumented migrants “self-deport,” warning that those who refuse would face the full force of the law. Should Ireland consider a similar approach—offering cash incentives for voluntary departure—or stick to straightforward deportation?Callers were split. Some argued that offering a one-time payment could save taxpayers money in the long run by avoiding lengthy legal battles, appeals, and costly accommodation. They said it allows people to leave with dignity while relieving pressure on housing and public services.Others were furious at the idea of rewarding illegal behaviour, insisting it would send the wrong message and attract more people hoping for a payout. “Break the law and get paid for it? That's madness,” one caller said.The debate touches on national priorities, border control, and the ethics of migration enforcement. Should compassion guide policy—or common sense?Date:13/05/25

Mark and Niall discuss the infamous 1989 sequel Star Trek V: The Final Frontier.

Dr Niall Breen from the Portmarnock GP Clinic joined Andrea Gilligan to tackle your medical queries.

In August of 2016, Alan Hawe murdered his wife Clodagh and sons Liam, Niall and Ryan before taking his own life. The years that followed for Clodagh's sister, Jacqueline Connolly, and her family were filled with numerous meetings with Gardaí, politician and the Commissioner in a quest for justice which eventually culminated in a serious crime review. Jacqueline Connolly joined Pat on the show.

Tina was a sweet golden retriever, named after the legendary Tina Turner.

Harvard University and the Trump administration do battle over civil rights, funding, and tax status. Europe confronts unpleasant realities as it honors the 80th anniversary of VE Day. And the Pentagon contemplates how new weaponry and technology will change the future of warfare.  It's all part of a special “bring your own topic” episode of GoodFellows, which also examines the recent White House national security shakeup; the merits of a June 14 parade to celebrate the US Army's 250th anniversary (it's also President Trump's 79th birthday); and the legacy of legendary “value investor” Warren Buffett as he steps down as Berkshire Hathaway's CEO. Finally, with Mother's Day approaching, the fellows reflect on the remarkable women who brought them into the world. Recorded on May 6, 2025.

"I think the Scottish accent's been voted one of the sexiest, but it's also, some of them, one of the most disgusting" - CraigThis bonus episode was a hilarious trip down memory lane. Craig and I just let loose with our Scottish accents, sharing stories about growing up in Glasgow that we've never really talked about on the main show. The cultural differences, the misunderstandings with Americans, and the unique character of Glasgow compared to the rest of Scotland - it all came pouring out in our natural voices. I think listeners will get a real kick out of hearing us in our element, not holding back on the Scottish slang and experiences that shaped us before we moved abroad. It's raw, it's authentic, and it's Glasgow through and through.What's fascinating is how our identities are still so tied to Scotland even though we've both been away for decades. The way we slip in and out of our accents, the experiences that only make sense to other Scots - it's like carrying a piece of home with you that never quite fades, even when you have no plans to move back. This episode really captures that weird space of being proudly Scottish while also acknowledging why we chose to build our lives elsewhere.Key Takeaways: - The difficulties of being understood with a Scottish accent in America and how Niall had to adapt his speech to be understood- How Americans have particular difficulty understanding Scottish accents, especially with words like "bottle of water" - Discussion of Scottish comedy (Kevin Bridges, Still Game) and how specific cultural references don't translat"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

Nobody thought we could do it but we made it through our next 9 random movies! In this episode we look back at what sticks out in our withered memories of the movies we have put ourselves through: Robocop, Paths of Glory, The Lost Weekend, Them!, Face/Off, The Parallax View, AVPR: Aliens v Predator: Requiem, My Left Foot, and The Wrong Man . How did we feel about them in retrospect and with hindsight in our rear view mirror? Listen on and find out!

“And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain….”We are sad to say that we have come to the last episode of Where Is My Mind, and what a journey it has been.

For our last episode, Niall is joined by Ciara, who produced the first two seasons of the podcast, and Aoife, who has produced hundreds of episodes since. With a shared passion for changing how we see, treat and understand mental health and wellbeing, the trio discuss the highs and lows of the last 6 years, from how the podcasting landscape has changed to the ongoing societal shifts that impact each of us everyday.

In this special extra episode of A Vietnam Podcast, I take you through a day filled with various adventures. Starting with a cold sunrise bike ride where the stunning beauty of the dawn was well worth the early wake-up. Then, I recount our challenging yet exhilarating hike to a waterfall, where we navigated through icy waters and tricky paths. Along the way, I share some interesting local quirks, such as the abundance of weed shops and Friday laundry closures. We opted to skip a wild tubing event due to our 'mature' age and instead enjoyed a fun, albeit slightly murky, poolside hangout. Join us on this journey and get a glimpse of the highs and lows of our travels.00:00 Introduction to the Extra Episode00:26 Exploring the Pool and Surroundings01:07 Sunrise Adventure03:54 Waterfall Hike Challenges08:14 Poolside Relaxation and Tipsy Tubing09:48 Sunset Bar and Local Discoveries11:36 Reflections on Pai13:46 Conclusion and Next Episode Teaser"Send me a message!"7 Bridges Brewing Co. - An award winning Vietnamese craft brewery from Da Nang, with breweries across Vietnam!Rabbit Hole Irish Sports Bar - Check out their new location on Tran Nao with the best views in the city over Landmark 81!

178 - Josie & The Pussycats with Niall McGowan In this episode, we're strumming the power chords of early 2000s pop culture with the glittering, satirical cult classic Josie & The Pussycats! Joining us is none other than Niall McGowan, co-host of Bat Minute and a connoisseur of all things comic and cinematic. Together, we dive into the neon-drenched world of Josie, Melody, and Val as they rocket from small-town dreamers to unwitting pop pawns in a plot to brainwash teens. We explore the film's razor-sharp (and still shockingly relevant) commentary on consumerism, the music industry, and branding overload, all while appreciating the infectious soundtrack that still slaps today. Niall brings his signature wit and deep pop culture knowledge to unpack the film's surprising comic roots, its place in early-2000s cinema, and why Josie & The Pussycats deserves way more love than it got on its original release. So slap on your cat ears, crank up the volume, and join us as we celebrate one of the most delightfully subversive "bubblegum" movies ever made!

One of English football's most iconic occasions is almost here, but can Nottingham Forest, Crystal Palace or Aston Villa make history on FA Cup semi-final weekend? Wembley plays host to our final four, of which 3 are looking to do something Man City are very familiar with, and that's make a major final. Can Palace win their first FA Cup ever? Can Forest complete a dream season? Can Emery bring Villa glory again? Or will City do what they always do? Niall and Marley look to answer those questions on this episode of FSD.

If your head has been spinning since Donald Trump walked into the White House Rose Garden  and declared “Liberation Day” last Wednesday, we don't blame you. And not just because it was nauseating watching the stock market or your 401(k) crash down, but because it wasn't clear what exactly we were looking at.  As our guest today, economic historian and Free Press columnist Niall Ferguson, wrote in our pages last week:  "Depending on your worldview, you probably think Trump's tariff blitz is one of two things. Either a committed protectionist is trying to Make America Great Again by killing “globalism,” ending “forever wars,” and bringing manufacturing jobs back to the United States. Let's call this Project Minecraft. Alternatively, an unhinged demagogue is crashing both the world economy and the liberal international order, mainly to the advantage of authoritarian regimes…But here is what is actually happening: The American empire that came into existence after the failed autarky and isolationism of the 1930s is being broken up after 80 years. Despite Trump's imperial impulses—wanting to annex Greenland, calling for Canada to become the 51st state—he is engaged right now in a kind of wild decolonization project." Whether or not you agree with Niall's conclusion, there's no question that the real story here is not about the particular tariff rate for Cambodia or Taiwan; rather, it's fundamentally about reordering America's place in the world.  Over the past decade, there's been an intense debate over what role America should play on the world stage, in geopolitics, in trade, and in technology. Trump has made a very clear set of decisions on that question. And that's the case whether or not most Americans understand the consequences. So what are the consequences when the U.S. acts unilaterally to upend the global trading system? What is the outcome when the U.S. weaponizes its own economic power? What happens when the world order, as we know it, is upended? Will these actions embolden our adversaries, or weaken them? Will this ultimately make us poorer, or better off? Has the American empire reached its end? And, was this inevitable or self-inflicted?  One note: While Bari and Niall were recording this conversation, Trump announced a 90-day pause on the reciprocal tariffs. Notably, there's no pause on the tariffs for China. In fact, it went up to 125 percent. But the point remains. And the face-off between America and China has only heated up. What does that mean? Is the twenty-first century destined to be ours, or China's? All these questions and more with Free Press columnist Niall Ferguson.
