Heidi Murphy sent a picture: "Sorry. Just found this note. So I'm attaching that picture now.

Kelly Garrod emailed: "Hi Marc, The music featured on your podcast has always been wonderful with good information from your comments. I prefer listening to the version with comments rather than the music only. I believe you do a good job of featuring wonderful Celtic music, featuring new artists that I might otherwise never hear while providing comments on both the music and views of the world. The comments are concise, do not distract from the overall experience of the podcast and relevant to many of the stories in the music you feature. This is to let you know that I appreciate your political comments with your perspective on various topics. In today's political world, I believe it is important to articulate those viewpoints on any platform we have. Since I keep a low social media profile, and have limited options, I am pleased to support one that I regularly support. As a Patreon of your podcast for many years, I plan to keep supporting your work for many years to come. Please keep doing the good stuff you are doing! Thanks"

Bean and Peat are once again joined by Davinia (Dee) Evans, having talked about Scott Lynch's The Lies Of Locke Lamora last time around. How she represents a new type of fantasy author; her own journey, from taking a copy of The Hobbit from the school library and having dreams of being published by Robert Jordan's publisher (Orbit), to the eventual publication of her Notorious Sorcerer trilogy.... with Orbit. Along the way how Dee's own Notorious Sorcerer evolved from fan fiction, being raised on British comedy such as Monty Python, The Goodies, and Fawlty Towers (despite growing up in the tropics), and how the fantasy market is shifting away from exploration and towards finding the fantastical at home.
Looking at the bogs a bit more closely, where are we at in developing completely peat free alternative composts so that we can stop cutting up bogs to grow food? Teagasc, the agricultural research agency is in the middle of a lot of work in this area. Philip met with Dr Michael Gaffney to discuss further.
The European Commission is not happy about what we haven't done to protect our bogs. They say we have failed to stop large scale commercial peat extraction. So Ireland is getting sued, again. While we have done a bad job protecting our raised bog networks, taking take peat away in the morning would mean we end a large part of Irish horticulture.
The Philadelphia 76ers have a major decision to make with the 22nd pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. They need a player who can contribute early on, and today Arizona freshman Koa Peat has gained some traction as a potential target. Does he fit the mold of a guy that will produce early on? We break down Peat's strengths, weaknesses, and NBA projection. There are experts who have tried to compare his game to Aaron Gordon. This is something the Sixers have needed for awhile around Joel Embiid... but can they still rely on Embiid to stay healthy? What should be the top priority for the Sixers in this draft?

Send us Fan MailWe sit down with master distiller Caitlin Bartlemay to dig into why American single malt keeps gaining ground and why McCarthy's still stands out after decades on the shelf. We get practical about peat, Oregon oak maturation, proof, climate, and what it takes to steward a whiskey brand without chasing every trend. • the rise of American single malt and what category recognition changes for shelves and menus • Caitlin's farm and winery background and how it shapes her approach to distilling • learning the job through apprenticeship culture and the realities of early distillery work • what defines McCarthy's American single malt and why the core process stays consistent • Oregon oak (Garryana) casks, reuse, cask sizes, and why time in wood is more than colour • how warehouse climate affects proof and maturation at the base of Mount Hood • why the six-year McCarthy's is bottled at 100 proof and how it drinks • tasting language, peat as an on-ramp, and the idea that whiskey should stop you mid sip • limited experiments, special finishes, and where to watch for releases remember www.scotchybourbonboys.com for all things Scotchy Bourbon Boys.

Make whether you listen to us or watch us, make sure that you leave good feedback and become members. Leave super chats. That's always good on thank you, Kirk, for your super chat tonight. A peated American single malt aged in Oregon oak shouldn't work this well and that's exactly why we had to talk about it. We're joined by Caitlin Bartlemay, master distiller behind McCarthy's American Single Malt, to unpack how a whiskey can be smoky, fruity, and bold without turning into a palate-wrecker. Along the way, we get into why American single malt keeps surging, what it means when stores finally label a real “American Single Malt” section, and why bourbon fans are starting to look for something beyond dessert flavours.Caitlin brings a rare mix of backgrounds: farm kid problem-solving, years of winery work, and a food science education built on hands-on production. That story matters because it shows up in the way McCarthy's is made and protected. We talk through the brand's fingerprint: peated malted barley sourced from Scotland, copper distillation, glacial-fed water, and maturation in 100% Garryana (Oregon oak) barrels, including what happens when you reuse casks over multiple cycles and why “time in wood” is about more than extractive-heavy colour.Then we taste and debate the six-year McCarthy's at 100 proof, from smoke character to mouthfeel to the surprising ways peat can play like mezcal in a cocktail. We also touch experiments like rum cask aging, what trends get right and wrong, and how a whiskey should make you stop mid conversation and actually notice what's in your glass.If you enjoy American whiskey, craft distilling, single malt, peat, barrel aging, and real production talk, hit subscribe, share this with a whiskey friend, and leave us a review where you listen.

We're back with a new episode delving into Scott Lynch's debut novel, ths 2006 historical fantasy The Lies Of Locke Lamora, the first in Lynch's "Gentlemen Bastards" series. Set in the city of Camorr, the book introduces us to the Bastards, a group of elite con men who rob and inveigle the rich, and get tangled up in a new criminal mastermind trying to take over the city's underworld. The novel was nominated for several awards upon its release, winning the SF Site Readers' Choice Award in 2006.Bean and Peat are joined by Australian fantasy author Davinia Evans, whose Notorious Sorcerer trilogy novels (Notorious Sorcerer, Shadow Baron and Rebel Blade) have seen her become one of the most exciting new voices in fantasy fiction. Here they talk about how the setting of Camorr - an ersatz, mystical take on Venice - makes LOLL different from more traditional fantasy worlds, the character dynamics crafted by Lynch, and some highly innovative swearing.
Brussels says Ireland is failing to enforce environmental rules and alleges significant peat extraction continues without planning permission or environmental assessments. Foe more on this, Irish Times Climate and Science Correspondent Caroline O'Doherty.

Report from Tony Connelly, Europe Editor
Ireland is being taken to the European Union's highest court for failing to stop illegal peat extraction. With the details on this Anton spoke to Pat O'Toole, Political Correspondent, Irish Farmers Journal.
It was announced today that the European Commission has decided to bring Ireland to the European Court of Justice over alleged peat cutting infringements. They claim that the Government has spent EU money on illegally extracting peat…Joining Shane to discuss further is Green Party Spokesperson for Climate and former Minister of State at the Department of Environment, Climate, and Communications Ossian Smyth and Michael Fitzmaurice, Independent Ireland TD for Roscommon-Galway.
The Agriland team bring you the biggest stories of the week in Irish agriculture, which this week includes:Tax and fuel payments;Diesel vehicle scrappage scheme;Irish farming and the EU's green future;More trouble ahead for beef farmers?Ireland in the dock over peat cutting.Don't forget to rate, review and follow The Farming Week, Agriland's weekly review of Irish agriculture, and visit Agriland.ie for more.
The government has published fresh guidance for farmers and food businesses to help them prepare for the new sanitary and phytosanitary - or SPS - agreement between the UK and the EU. It's expected to take effect in a year's time. It's supposed to make trade easier, with fewer checks and less paperwork, but there are still many points in the agreement to iron out. Peatlands are one of the most valuable sources of carbon storage and they provide important habitats for wildlife and plants too. Across Wales the National Peatland Action Programme is working to improve these precious sites. In the Cambrian Mountains the project has been so successful that water voles have now populated the area. All week we're assessing the state of upland farming across the UK. In Scotland, 70% of agricultural land is classed as uplands. Most of those farms have sheep, many also have beef cattle and forestry is also a big part of Scottish farming. Agriculture is devolved and the Scottish government has, until now, held onto the direct payments which existed under the pre-Brexit EU system. That's being phased out, and upland farmers are concerned that under the new rules they could lose out. Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Rein on üle mitme saate taas tagasi ja jagab muljeid Soomlaste Housemarque'i Sarosest. On see vääriline järg Returnalile, või jääb midagi ikka puudu? See on seotud ka mitme teise teemaga meie saates, näiteks tegi üks Housemarque'i endistest juhtidest uue mängustuudio ja ühe teise endise töötaja soolomäng sai Switchil lõpuks edukaks. Räägime ka, millal on sellesuvine Summer Games Fest ja millal Sony oma tulevaid asju näitab. Ning, et PSNi tellimus läheb ka taas kallimaks. Lisaks Sarosele on Rein mänginud ka The Long Darki kauavalminud üksikmängu Wintermute. Rainer jätkab Muumide maailmas ja proovis sooloarendaja kuulipõrgut Particulitix ja räägib veidi retromängudest. Soovituseks on Epicu poes Tomb Raider I-III uusversioonid tasuta, ning Steamis merepäevad ja Humble poes suur kevadale.

We're back after a couple of weeks away, and Miami gave us enough chaos to fill three episodes. Kimi Antonelli just won his third consecutive Grand Prix — surviving another terrible start from pole, a three-way scrap with Verstappen and Leclerc into Turn 1, and sustained pressure from Lando Norris — to extend his championship lead. At 19 years old, this kid is making history look routine.The drama didn't stop at the checkered flag. Leclerc spun on the final lap, hit the wall, and then got slapped with a 20-second post-race penalty for leaving the track repeatedly — dropping him from sixth to eighth. Verstappen spun at the start, recovered to fifth, but picked up his own five-second penalty for crossing the pit exit line. Russell collected fourth after collisions with both Leclerc and Verstappen that sent multiple drivers to the stewards. It was the kind of race where the post-race document pile was thicker than the race itself. Then there's the off-track drama that might be even juicier. Red Bull boss Laurent Mekies told Sky Sports that Gianpiero Lambiase — Verstappen's longtime race engineer — is leaving to become McLaren's team principal. McLaren CEO Zak Brown immediately fired back: "He knows something I don't, apparently." The two camps met in Miami to clear the air, but the implication is clear — Red Bull is either telling the truth or deliberately trying to destabilize McLaren from the inside. Either way, it's incredible paddock theater.We'll break down all of it — the race, the penalties, the regulation tweaks in action, the Lambiase chess match, and whether Antonelli is genuinely running away with this championship or if McLaren is about to close the gap. Welcome back to The Fast Ones.
We open the show on Oz Pearlman — the mentalist who's been showing up on every podcast and somehow keeps reading minds for a living. Adam just caught him on Modern Wisdom, where Pearlman walked the host through his exact internal thought process — what he picked, what he second-guessed, what he settled on — like he had a pipeline straight into the man's head. Adam now rearranges his schedule whenever Oz pops up on a screen. So consider this a formal invitation: Oz, come drink whiskey with us. Tell us our favorite bourbon. We'll pour the Glencairns.Speaking of — this week we're sipping High West Campfire. A blend of straight rye, straight bourbon, and blended malt scotch. Yes, scotch. Peat smoke gives way to orange zest, English toffee, toasted brioche, salted caramel, leather, dark chocolate. It works.Then Adam gives an update on baby Mary. New listeners — Adam's daughter was born very early with a heart condition and a long list of complications. She's been in the NICU since birth. This past weekend was her actual due date, and after a long string of holding-the-line W's, she's turned a meaningful corner. Off the paralytic. Better oxygen, blood pressure, heart rate. Swelling coming down. Still a long road — likely nine to twelve more months in the NICU. Adam and Lady Haylee are deeply grateful. Keep them in your prayers. Both of them.Quick note from Dave: Good Shepherd Sunday in Tulsa. The pastor handed out cards and asked every man in the pews to write down the name of a young man who'd make a good priest. A thousand men doing that work together. Tulsa's per-capita priest count is already top five in the country — and we still need more.Then we get into it. The King in the Tabernacle.If the Eucharist is just a symbol, the Catholic Church is a 2,000-year deception. Flannery O'Connor's line — to hell with it — is the right one. But we don't believe it's a symbol. We believe what Christ said. Body, blood, soul, and divinity. The continuation of the Incarnation, until the end of the age.David's been reading The Real Presence by St. Peter Julian Eymard (Cor Jesu Press). Eymard is the patron of Eucharistic adoration — one homily in him, gave it for a lifetime. And one chapter lays out a battle plan for how to actually spend a holy hour. Not just sit there. Spend it.The four ends of worship — ACTS: Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, Supplication. Eymard breaks the hour into four fifteen-minute sections. First fifteen: adoration. You don't walk into the royal court making demands. You fall on your knees and salute the King. Second fifteen: thanksgiving — for yourself, your family, the world. Thank Him for instituting the Eucharist at all. (Most of us forget that one.) Third fifteen: reparation. Stand in the gap. For your sins, for the world's, especially for the sacrileges against the Eucharist itself. Fourth fifteen: petition. Now you can ask. Ask large graces. Ask for the triumph of His Church. By the time you get there, you're asking for the right things.We talk about the difference between knowing the Eucharist is Christ and acting like it. You don't accidentally get a six-pack at 40. You don't accidentally get holy, either. We're body-soul composites — what we do with our bodies forms our souls. That's why we genuflect. Dress for Mass. Kneel after Communion. St. Charbel had two modes: preparing to receive, or thanking God for having received. The bar he set is the right one.We close with Eymard's image of the guard of honor. Jesus has made Himself vulnerable in the host. Heart pierced. Defenseless. Waiting on His men to show up and adore Him. That's the work. Guard duty. Get to adoration. Change your life.Raise your glass.TOPICS COVEREDOz Pearlman the mentalist — and Adam's open invitation to come on the showBaby Mary's update: off the paralytic, turning a corner after months in the NICUWhy prayer for Lady Haylee matters as much as prayer for MaryGood Shepherd Sunday in Tulsa — a thousand men writing down names of future priestsWhy the Eucharist is the reason to be Catholic — and why "to hell with it" is the right answer if it's a symbolSt. Peter Julian Eymard, the patron of Eucharistic adoration, and his book The Real PresenceWhy the real presence is the continuation of the IncarnationThe actual battle plan for a holy hour: ACTS in fifteen-minute sectionsWhy thanksgiving in adoration is the most perfect act of loveReparation — standing in the gap for sacrileges against the EucharistWhy your petitions get sharper after you've adored, thanked, and made reparationKnowing the Eucharist is Christ vs. actually acting like itWhy you're not going to accidentally get holy any more than you're going to accidentally get a six-pack at 40Body-soul composites: how genuflection, posture, and dress shape the interior lifeSt. Charbel's two modes — preparing to receive Communion, or thanking God for having receivedLady Pamela stopping at every chapel she passed — and why that 60 seconds was worth more than Adam realizedDon't let the perfect be the enemy of the excellentThe guard of honor: Jesus exposing Himself in the host, depending on His men to defend and adore HimBourbon of the week: High West Campfire — the rare rye/bourbon/scotch blendREFERENCED IN THIS EPISODEBooks:The Real Presence by St. Peter Julian Eymard (Cor Jesu Press)Saints:St. Peter Julian EymardSt. CharbelMother Angelica (and her new shoes at adoration)People & previous guests:Joey Spencer — on Christ becoming the fruit hanging on a treeJeff Cavins — on talking to Jesus like He's actually thereFlannery O'Connor / Dorothy Day — "If it's a symbol, to hell with it"Oz Pearlman (mentalist, Modern Wisdom podcast)Lady Haylee MinihanLady Pamela NilesConcepts & references:The four ends of worship: Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, Supplication (ACTS)The National Eucharistic CongressGood Shepherd SundayEucharistic adorationThe continuation of the IncarnationSubstance and accidents (Aristotelian-Thomistic metaphysics of the Eucharist)SPONSOR BLOCKSponsor: Select International Tours — selectinternationaltours.comWhen Adam and Dave decided to lead their first pilgrimage, the same name kept coming up: Select International Tours.

Things Discussed: Has Michigan found that November stride? More that Tennessee and Alabama didn't have the size; difference was Bama's PG went off. It's a two-point game now. There's never been more than two teams that shot 60%+ from two; this year there are eight. Looking at how size matters (I recap yesterday's Jimmystats). The perfect guy to defend Arizona is Moussa Diabate. Note that Zona's main weakness seems to be extremely athletic rim defenders who can make them less efficient at the rim. Utah State, Cincy had those guys. Matchups: Should they put Mara against Krivas? Not sure that will be efficient, but Mara in the 15 mins that Krivas sits should be a MAJOR advantage because Peat is a freshman super-wing and Awaka is a Tennessee big. Zona will play drop coverage, M should have some offense planned to get lops off that. Peat: you can push him from the basket; he's taken 165 shots at the rim and 130 pullup Js and there's a MASSIVE difference in efficiency. Kharchenkov another outstanding freshman who can be pushed off his shot. What Zona does is rebound and get free throws, and Michigan is set up to stop that. What Michigan does is oversize you and overmatches Yaxel vs guards, and Arizona is set up to stop that. If Yaxel vs Kharchenkov or Peat is our big matchup win Brayden Burries vs our guards is theirs. He may be one step too fast for Nimari, think this is a March Roddy Game. Super impressed with Cadeau's defense; he anticipates screens and that has saved Michigan from getting into bad matchups. Bradley: Weird thing is it doesn't even matter where he's taking his twos from. Would be good on a Will Wade team. Tschetter: salute to his play vs Tennessee in the 1st half. Sometimes you need that kind of effort. Illinois or UConn: We disagree. Illinois is a better team, UConn can switch 1-5 and beat them in MSG, though that was back when it wasn't abnormal for Wagler to score 3 points. Duke vs UConn: Biggest choke play ever? Hockey: What's different? Sam asks if we have the best goalie in the Tournament: yeah, by a little. What's different about this team from the ones that didn't win? Brian: Nothing. Seth: Not as talented up front but they hit on all of their USNTDP guys; the United States' ability to develop hockey players has been the story of the year, and we're a part of that story.

Sweet Sixteen and Elite Eight Review Starts at 0:51 Almost a stress-free weekend. Michigan overwhelms a pair of top SEC teams that couldn't be any more different from each other. Brian credited March Roddy a little, Alabama preview a lot, as they got worn out. Labaran Philon was a hero: 39 minutes, 35 points, kept them in it. They didn't have bigs; they had one Morez Johnson-like object who got worn out. Wrightsell was hitting tough threes early but as he exhausted they were falling shorter and shorter until airball. 1st round picks Amari Allen and Nate Ament are freshmen not highly valuable college players, like Diabate, and can't get anything vs Michigan's size. Lendeborg is nailing threes since Dukes started going under screens; they're practice jumpers...against top-25 teams. Tennessee very different game: ball sitting on the floor for a minute and Lappas is so confused (how does he have this job??). Officials call bad foul on Mara then have to call everything; they get three incidents of goaltending or cylinder violations and went 0/3. Gillespie couldn't be Labaran Philon and that was it. Brief spasm of irritation when Vols are getting ORebs and Mara gets a 2nd foul, then 21 balanced points; it's over when JP Estrella tries to thunderdunk on Tschetter. Everyone was complementing Yaxel. Happy when Trey McKenney shoots a three. Salute to these seniors. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Final Four Preview Starts at 33:00 Meta game: Everyone is at the rim now because there's a much higher floor so you aren't (like Beilein) subject to the triple gods. Arizona is a lot like Michigan but they're even more extreme, and their jumpers are usually twos. When they do get a three (rarely) Bradley and Burries can knock them down. Concern is whether they can bully Mara; NBA people will be watching his battle with Krivas, defensive impact is understated because he's a mountain you can't move. Lost to Kansas because KU was able to muscle up and push them away from the rim. Everyone packs the paint against them; if you can actually push them away from the rim they're in the 100s in 2PT distance and they're not good at 2PJs, especially Koa Peat (34% on 130 attempts). Also: Jaden Bradley (46% on 157), Ivan Karchenkov (42% on 62), and Brayden Burries (46% on 92). Difference: Arizona has three freshmen, Michigan has one, and Michigan's three-big lineup can probably make Peat inefficient to be just enough. Burries is McKenney. Game of the century? Illinois we know; they're huge and they shoot, and they play the wrong Ivisic. Alex pulled off one of the great jinxes to get UConn over the line. Tarris Reed's final form is the switchable five who is a monster shot blocker and scorer, could be major trouble defensively for Michigan because they don't have to go under screens, takes away Yaxel's threes. The rest of those guys though? Karaban is a 6'8 version of Nimari Burnett, have some shooting guards in Braylon Mullins and Solo Ball; Solo has gone full sophomore THJ from the arc; he can't hit one in the Tournament. Silas Demary was injured to start the Dance but is a wonderful creator. Illinois question: Andrej Sotjakovic is going OFF! Is that because he found something or because he can take advantage of space as a driver against unathletic teams like Iowa? 3. Hockey Starts at 1:11:12 Bentley game: didn't dominate them but once they got the free goal (Brian was even a little upset) at the end of the 1st period; the only way Bentley wins this is if Michigan gives that up. UMD game: Alex didn't like this draw—North Dakota got an engineered free trip to the Frozen Four and Michigan had UMD. Alex also dislikes going up 3-0 early leads because you stop trying to score, and UMD was getting a lot of good looks. Got great looks, Michigan gave up too many good entries, UMD hit a post and a bar, their top line was out there like 35 minutes, Ivankovic stood tall. Tyler Duke's defense was not good on those two goals. Asher Barnett's penalty shifts the momentum. Michigan's goals: great tip, Valentini scores on a dime of a saucer from Moldy—so happy he's activated his inner fullback. Schifsky's shortie. Frozen Four preview: four teams with the most national titles. Brian DOES NOT like to play Denver in the Frozen Four; are they the favorites now? They've been playing VERY hot. North Dakota hasn't been there forever; it's been 10 years. Wisconsin we know. 4. Hot Takes and Women's Basketball Starts at 1:38:06 Takes significantly hotter than Dusty May when Mara picked up a B.S. foul 30 seconds into the game. Worst day in MSU winter sports history. NCAA could find a way to put Duke back in it but that would kill Bill Murray. WBB plays TONIGHT against 1-seed Texas. Smoked Louisville: not one but TWO 16-0 runs. They weren't transition baskets because they didn't cross midcourt; they're just 'sition baskets. No points for 7 minutes then dominated for three quarters—gonna have to play FOUR quarters from here on. BQD has seven offensive rebounds, against a huge Louisville team. Delfosse has really come on the last few weeks, Olson and Swords carried offensive, very impressed with how they dealt with Laura Zeigler; Sofilkanich handled her. Good sign for Texas's size, though they have a midrange assassin. Michigan's going to have to shoot well from three and hope Booker isn't effective from range. Home game for Texas in Fort Worth.
