Clare County Council claims it's "working with" Transport Infrastructure Ireland to implement a speed limit reduction on a West Clare national secondary road. Fianna Fáil Councillor Michael Shannon is calling for the speed limit to be reduced from 80 to 60 kilometres per hour at Darragh on the N68 amid safety concerns. The local authority needs written consent from TII to alter speed limits on national secondary roads but it's told Councillor Shannon it's "working with TII, the Members and the local community to deliver a safety scheme at this location". The Quilty representative claims Clare isn't getting its fair share of roads funding.

In this Mentor Moment, Fran Quilty, founder of Conjura, breaks down one of the biggest shifts happening in business right now: the move from AI answering questions… to AI actually taking action. Fran explains “agentic AI” in a way that finally makes sense — from AI identifying risks in your business, to making pricing decisions, changing campaigns, and automating workflows across platforms without constant human input. But beyond the tech, this conversation is really about removing friction, making better decisions faster, and understanding where modern businesses are heading next. If AI still feels abstract or overhyped to you, this is the episode that makes it practical.

In our last service for 2025, Hayden speaks to us about the topic of joy from Isaiah 54 and 1 Samuel 6.
The Dáil has heard that people in West and North Clare are being "priced out of their own towns" due to the demand for holiday homes. Bodyke Fine Gael TD Joe Cooney has told the Minister for Housing that locals in Kilkee, Doolin, Quilty, Carrigaholt, Kilbaha, Fanore, Spanish Point, Lahinch and Ballyvaughan are unable to buy homes in their native areas as a result of their popularity as tourist destinations. The average price of a home in Clare in the period of July to September was €285,000 which was unchanged from the same period of last year. Deputy Cooney says if "sustainable rural development", more homes must be built in these communities.
Australian cattle and lamb markets are at a tipping point. Prices have surged to record highs, but according to leading analyst Simon Quilty, we're about to hit what he calls “unsustainable pricing.” Bringing over 30 years of hard-won market insight to the table, Simon Quilty has worked with top firms including Louis Dreyfus, ConAgra, DR Johnston, and FC Stone. Today, he helps large financial institutions and farmers alike make sense of the complex forces shaping the red meat sector. In this episode, Simon delivers a no-nonsense forecast: cattle rallying up to 750c/kg before falling back to a new norm around 550… lambs peaking at 1350c/kg before settling at 950. These aren't guesses. They're grounded in global supply shocks, America's herd liquidation, and the structural rebuild now underway in Australia. We cut straight into the forces driving this market, including: why America's drought and Trump's tariffs are reshaping global trade in our favour; how the mass liquidation of the southern Angus herd has set the stage for a desperate chase for quality cattle; the shift from wool into meat sheep and the rise of self-shedding breeds; and how new global demand from China shutting out US beef to the Middle East's booming chilled carcass trade is creating both opportunity and protection against future price crashes. For producers, this conversation is a wake-up call. The highs won't last forever. But there is a clear path forward. One built on understanding the new norms, preparing for volatility, and making confident decisions in a transformed market. Simon Quilty's analysis has never been more relevant. If you want to know where livestock pricing is really headed and how to position your business, this is essential listening.
Fresh calls have been made for additional ambulances in West Clare. It follows an incident this week, in which a young girl is understood to have waited 2 and a half hours for an ambulance after sustaining a serious knee injury at a game in Quilty. It's believed another ambulance originally dispatched to the incident had to be diverted to respond to a life-threatening call elsewhere in the county. However, Quilty Fianna Fáil Councillor Michael Shannon insists it's high time a third ambulance is allocated to the region to prevent the scenario in future.

Guest post by Ciarán Quilty, Senior Vice-President for International at Intuit Digital transformation has flooded business leaders with tools but what it hasn't delivered, consistently, is confidence. That is the gap that matters more than ever now in the rising AI economy. Above adoption and access is confidence. Despite clear evidence that digitally connected businesses are 2.4x more likely to report higher productivity and 2.3x more likely to see increased revenue, more than 25% of UK small businesses still don't use basic digital tools Because leaders aren't struggling with information, the real challenge is noise. This includes data points with no priority, dashboards without context and ultimately, insights that land too late or vaguely to guide real decisions. The result is something quieter than failure: hesitation. More tools, less certainty Small and medium-sized businesses are making decisions under pressure, with fewer resources and thinner margins than their larger peers. They don't have the luxury of testing every new platform or hiring teams to interpret dashboards. They need to know what matters now. Yet too often, that's not what tech delivers. The reasons aren't surprising: cost, complexity, and a growing sense that many systems overpromise and underguide. If digital tools don't help leaders make faster, more confident decisions, they add friction rather than value. Instead of helping leaders move faster, the wrong tools add layers of prep: comparing dashboards, cross-checking systems, chasing consistency. Insight becomes one more thing to manage, not a source of direction. What confidence actually looks like It's easy to treat confidence like a personal trait. But in business, it's a system-level outcome that comes from seeing what's changed, knowing what matters, and acting early before issues pile up. This is where AI shows real promise. Not in automation at scale, that's a given, but today it's about surfacing signals leaders didn't know to look for. We've seen this already. One SMB leader sends out an invoice. Before hitting send, an AI agent flags the customer's consistent late payments and suggests a late fee. The change takes seconds but improves the chance of on-time payment tenfold. More than a clever feature this is something designed to be relevant to the needs of the business and this is what builds confidence. Because it shows up at the right moment, with a specific, financially relevant prompt, the system provides support, while earning trust while turning technology into partnership. The stack that works: AI and human expertise Technology doesn't build trust alone. Data from the Institute of Coding reveals that just 12% of SMEs have invested in AI training, even though 52% cite lack of skills as a major adoption barrier. The best results come when AI and human advice work in tandem, spotting patterns, prompting better decisions, and giving leaders space to think. Decision-support agents are already shifting what's possible. They flag anomalies, suggest actions, and scale insight without adding weight. But they still leave room for human instinct and judgment. The point isn't to replace the leader but support them in the moments that matter. Done right, this is how technology fades into the background, and true leadership moves forward. Focus over function When leaders are overwhelmed, it doesn't mean they stop caring, they just stop trusting. Second-guessing the data and delaying action, as they wait for certainty that rarely comes. And over time, that doubt creates drag: Momentum slows, decisions stack up and strategy recedes into the background. If we want to rebuild that momentum, we need to stop layering on features and start designing for focus. Because clarity, not complexity, is what turns information into action. Think of a cash flow dashboard that shows declining revenue vs. an alert that tells you: 'Revenue has dipped 12% this month due to two major late payers, would you like to ...
Kilmurry Ibrickane begin the defence of their Clare Senior Ladies Football title this weekend. The reigning champions take on Burren Gaels in Quilty on Sunday afternoon with that game set for a 2pm throw in.

Clare's progress in the All Ireland Ladies Football Intermediate Championship has been halted at the quarter final stage Monaghan have advanced to the last four after their 1-14 to 1-8 win over Graham Shine's side in Quilty this afternoon. The Banner trailed by two points at the break but could only manage three second half points as Monaghan kicked a further seven. Clare FM Analyst Niall Hickey says the slow start to the second half was costly.
Enhancing economic opportunities in Kilrush and Lahinch, securing a fair deal for Cliffs of Moher landowners and improving the road network have been listed as the top priorities for the West Clare Municipal District's new Cathaoirleach. Lahinch Fine Gael Councillor Bill Slattery succeeds Doonbeg Councillor Rita McInerney in the role and will wear the chains of office for the second time in his career. The first ever councillor from Quilty, Fianna Fáil's Michael Shannon will serve as Leas Cathaoirleach. Cathaoirleach Slattery says he's hoping to achieve a lot in the year ahead.
According to a new report by NZIER, Kiwi households are wasting thousands worth of food every year. New Zealanders waste $1500 worth of food annually, and new data shows the country is among one of the highest producers of general waste in the OECD - and that it has some of the lowest material productivity in the world. WasteMINZ CEO Nic Quilty says Kiwis don't treat waste as a resource - and it's a problem. "When you buy something, think about how long you're going to use it for, is it good quality and is it going to end up in a landfill? We don't want these things ending up in landfill, we want them to continually remain in our economy for as long as possible." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Kilmurry Ibrickane and Doora Barefield will be hoping to book their place for a shot at early season silverware when they face off in the semi final of the WillWeGo.com Cusack Cup. The two sides go head to head in Quilty on Friday evening, with the winner progressing to face Jack Daly holders Éire Óg in the decider. Doora Barefield ran out comprehensive 5-12 to 2-9 when the sides met in the group stages of the campaign earlier in the year. Clare FM's, Derek Dormer expects a stronger showing from Kilmurry this time around.
An endangered sea turtle — thought to have survived a shark attack and a 5,000km Atlantic drift — will be flown home next week by Aer Lingus to a newly discovered nesting beach for her species off west Africa. The tiny tropical turtle, discovered shivering on a Clare beach during the Christmas holidays, is now thriving after being nursed back to health in Dingle Oceanworld Aquarium for the past six months. Diagnosed with a respiratory condition and meningitis, the turtle — christened Solstice — was near death when found on Quilty beach, covered in seaweed and barely able to lift her head. To discuss more on this, Alan Morrissey was joined by Kevin Flannery, Marine biologist and Director of Dingle Oceanworld.

This week, we're joined by special guest Sean Quilty to dive into Asher Roth's 2009 party anthem “I Love College.” From sticky bar floors to Top 20 charts, this catchy hit captured a specific moment in pop and hip-hop culture, sparking the brief but memorable wave of frat rap. As Philly natives, Matt and Sean reflect on Roth's early days, his MySpace-era discovery by Scooter Braun, and how the song's beer-soaked nostalgia resonated with a generation. Along the way, we dig into Roth's post-radio evolution, his lyrical highs and lows, and whether his later indie releases reveal an artist with much more to offer than just keg stands and bong rips.

Clare County Council is being accused of abandoning a vital piece of water infrastructure in West Clare. The "model" is a structure in Clohaninchy south of Quilty that funnels water from the Annagheeragh River to the sea. After previously raising issues relating to the model in March of 2024, Quilty native Joseph Woulfe has once again taken to social media where he's claimed the structure isn't fit for purpose. He's calling for a second pipe to be constructed in order to aid drainage.

This week the girls have a special treat! They interview their friend, Heather Briggs of My Sew Quilty Life. Heather is a talented quilt pattern and fabric designer who blends her love for quilting, design, and all things floral into a world of creativity and inspiration. Before transitioning into quilting full-time, Heather worked as an Architectural Designer, creating hospitals and healthcare facilities across the U.S. With a Master's degree in Architecture, she developed valuable skills in composition, attention to detail, and working with shapes—all of which now play a significant role in her quilt designs.Heather has become known for her floral quilt designs—so much so that some call her the “flower quilt queen.” Her style is a blend of traditional and modern, with a soft, romantic aesthetic that carries through both her quilt patterns and Moda fabric collections. The girls chat about all kinds of things quilty and even find out what Heather's 3 P's are. She shares her vision for the future and you will be left inspired and smiling. Enjoy this wonderful episode!To explore more of Heather's work, visit www.mysewquiltylife.com, and connect with her on Instagram @mysewquiltylife—she loves engaging with fellow quilters and fabric lovers!
Only 11% of podcasts make it to episode 50 and only 6.4% get to 100. So, excuse The Stew if they're feeling a wee bit chuffed to drop episode 100 today.For this milestone show, co-hosts John Lee and Martin Nutty are on the receiving end of questions from Wexford's own, attorney Shelley Ann Quilty-Lake, who grills the pair on their four-year journey, their podcast concept, the show's evolution, their changing interview approach, and how they collaborate. They reflect on the podcast's dynamic guest lineup from astronauts to archaeologists, standout moments in the first 99 episodes, what they see as their role in the Irish diaspora, and share the buzz from their recent “Irish Stew Gets Lost in Belfast Road Trip 2024” (episodes dropping mid-Jan.), the first, they hope, of many road trips across Global Irish Nation.And they manage to humble brag about being on the short-list for three 2024 Irish Pod Awards—Best Society & Culture Podcast, Best Hosting Duo/Trio, and Best Editor (thanks to the Stew's secret weapon, audio guru and inaugural guest Bill Schultz).With thanks to Shelley Ann for her deft interrogation and deep appreciation for their intriguing guests and loyal listeners, Martin and John look forward to dishing out many more servings of Irish Stew for you.LinksIrish Stew Full Episode ListingTeam Irish Stew BiosBill Schultz EpisodeShelley Ann Quilty-LakeLinkedIn FacebookEpisode Details Season 6 - Episode 20
Ashley Wingert tells us all about her adventure riding in the Tom Quilty Gold Cup, Australia's premiere 100 mile ride. Dr. Lucian Spataro Jr., on his book "The Long Ride". It is a beautiful chronology of a place in time when three horses and a team of people were doing the “right thing” against very long odds; their perseverance is even more inspiring today, twenty years later. In Karen's training tip she talks about negative splits, riding the first half of an endurance ride slower than the second.
