Liverpool and New York haunt the story of Irish independence in a way few other places do. Though separated by more than 5,000 kilometres of ocean, both ports were part of a wider Atlantic world in which Ireland occupied a central place.By the 1920s Liverpool and New York were among the most Irish cities on the planet. Both had been transformed by generations of Irish migration and in both cities Irish politics shaped everyday life. During the War of Independence, these communities became crucial to the republican movement. Money, weapons, propaganda and people moved through the ports, while IRA networks operated on both sides of the Atlantic. But this was not simply a story of support for Irish independence. In Liverpool and New York, Irish politics were fiercely contested. Supporters of the Republic organised, fundraised and agitated, while opponents of independence also made their voices heard. Anti-Irish politics, loyalism, class tensions and divisions within the diaspora all shaped how the conflict was understood abroad. In this episode of Brothers in Pain, Dr Brian Hanley explores the role of Liverpool and New York in the Irish War of Independence, revealing how two great port cities helped shape the revolution, and how Ireland's struggle in turn reshaped politics across the Atlantic world.This is the second last episode of Brothers in Pain a groundbreaking Global history of the Irish War of Independence by Dr Brian HanleyWritten, Researched & Narrated by Dr Brian Hanley.

'We are doing this because you are doing it in Ireland'.These were the words of an IRA volunteer in Manchester explaining attacks in Britain during the Irish War of Independence.During the conflict, Britain and particularly England became a major battlefield. Britain was not only geographically close to Ireland, it was also home to large Irish communities in many major cities. Between 1919 and 1922, the IRA made sustained efforts to bring the conflict across the Irish Sea, carrying out hundreds of attacks, most of them in England.This forgotten front of the war included major attacks on the Liverpool docks, the targeting of Black and Tans in Britain and several high-profile incidents, most notably the killing of the British field marshal Sir Henry Wilson.The war also consumed and divided British politics in a way few other issues did until Brexit nearly a century later. Political parties, trade unions and communities were split over what should happen in Ireland, while massive and sometimes violent demonstrations swept across Britain.In this episode of Brothers in Pain, a global history of the Irish Revolution, Dr Brian Hanley explores the IRA's campaign in Britain and how the wider question of Irish independence dominated British politics at the time.This is the eight episode in the Brothers in Pain Series a groundbreaking Global history of the Irish War of Independence by Dr Brian HanleyWritten, Researched & Narrated by Dr Brian Hanley.

After decades in Austin, Texas, Liz Atherton found herself asking a question many retirees eventually face: “Where do I really want to spend the next chapter of my life?” Following a lung cancer diagnosis and successful surgery, the question became even more urgent and personal. Liz wasn't looking for just another place to live. She wanted a place that felt right financially, emotionally, and physically. So she did the research. Tennessee. The Carolinas. Other retirement destinations across the South. Like so many people considering retirement relocation, Liz carefully weighed climate, cost of living, lifestyle, safety, beauty, and community. In the end, Hot Springs Village kept rising to the top. Just two months after making the move, I joined Liz on her back porch to share why she chose HSV, how she's “cash flowing” her retirement on Social Security, and why this encore chapter feels exactly right. This Porch Prowling episode is an honest, encouraging conversation about resilience, intentional living, and discovering where home truly belongs.

As the Irish Revolution broke out, Europe was gripped by political upheaval, fear of revolution, and rising antisemitism. In conservative and right-wing circles, the so-called “Jewish Question” loomed large. Claims that Jews were secretly fomenting revolution across the world became increasingly common, feeding conspiracy theories that shaped how many people interpreted events from Russia to Ireland.In this episode of Brothers in Pain, Dr Brian Hanley explores how these ideas influenced perceptions of the Irish Revolution. Leading British figures repeatedly claimed that Jews were secretly behind unrest in Ireland, reflecting the wider antisemitic beliefs circulating in British and European politics at the time.But the story was far more complex than conspiracy and prejudice. Jewish communities in Ireland and across the world responded to the Irish Revolution in different ways. Some Jewish figures, including Michael Noyek and Robert Briscoe, became prominent Irish republicans. Others were more cautious, concerned by political instability, violence, and antisemitism within parts of Irish nationalist politics.Brian also examines the uncomfortable reality that some leading Irish nationalist figures, including John Devoy and Arthur Griffith expressed antisemitic views. The result was a complicated history, shaped by solidarity, suspicion and racism.This is the seventh episode in the Brothers in Pain Series a groundbreaking Global history of the Irish War of Independence by Dr Brian HanleyWritten, Researched & Narrated by Dr Brian Hanley.

That's right, this week we're diving deep into some good-ol'-hopefully-won't-set-an-internet-mob-after-us-but-probably-will above average temperature hot takes!We begin with a debate on what makes a take HOT? Is it the waistline or style of delivery? A short discussion on the ultra lameness of lame instagram takes, and then - are wedding videos actually war crimes on wedding guests? Is politeness the ultimate get-out-of-jail-free card? Do voice notes deserve a lifetime ban? Is Arjun Kapoor a good actor actually? All this plus a few specially hot takes from our MOS live studio audience (our lovely but insane crew) and one very hot take from a MOS listener who had a take that truly called for a moment of reflection & silence.

Hi Mossies, if your gut is telling you it's Friday, YOU'RE CORRECT. We're back with a brand new episode on gut feelings & the power of your instinct. This week Naina and Sakshi talk about battling the trenches of Bandra to get to their favourite cafes, the horrors of being abandoned by your gym trainer, and the beautiful joys of getting a second Longchamp. We then asked - how do you differentiate between a gut feeling and plain old anxiety? Should you listen to your gut EVERY SINGLE TIME? Or are there times when your gut is being a loser and just playing games to mess with you? Watch the episode to find out.(Somewhere along the way, we also arrived at the unnecessary hate against the word ‘aunty' and sought justice for kitty parties. Plus, Sakshi gave tips on how to sus out a kidnapper on a first date and the girls reflected on their gut feelings about starting MOS.)Finally we have a gut feeling that we're sooooo close to 100k subs but you gotta help us get there by going and hitting like, share, comment, hype, subscribe, follow, and casually dropping MOS into every single conversation you have this week.

If you’ve ever typed “am I homeschooling my child the right way” into a search bar at 11pm — this post is for you. Most homeschool moms have experienced some version of that same question — am I homeschooling my child the right way? — and most of them are asking it for exactly the right reasons. Not out loud, necessarily. More likely, as a quiet voice at the end of the day, after the books are closed and the planner is put away. Here’s the truth: there is no single “right way” to homeschool your child. But there is something that works — and it’s more accessible than you think. Am I Homeschooling My Child the Right Way? (& Why the “Right Way” to Homeschool Is a Myth Worth Busting) The homeschool world has a way of making moms feel like there’s a correct answer they haven’t found yet. The right curriculum, the right schedule, and the right philosophy. Classical or Charlotte Mason. Structured or unschooling.90 minutes a day or seven hours? And so the search begins — and the second-guessing never quite stops. Every mom who has ever asked “am I homeschooling my child the right way” deserves a better answer than another curriculum or method recommendation. Here’s what I’ve noticed after many conversations with homeschool moms who are deep in this: the ones who feel most lost are rarely the ones doing it wrong. They’re the ones paying close enough attention to notice the gap between what they planned and what their child actually needs. That gap isn’t failure. It’s information. The “Right Way” Is a Moving Target — And That’s Actually Good News The truth about homeschooling the “right way” is that right was never a fixed destination. It’s a moving target — and it moves because your child moves. She grows, shifts, changes her mind, surprises you. The mom who is asking am I getting this right? is almost always the mom who is watching closely enough to ask better questions. What “Right” Actually Means for Your Child Let me tell you about a mom I’ll call Joni. Joni had done everything by the book. Researched curricula for months. Built a beautiful schedule. Joined a co-op. Colour-coded her planner. By any external measure, she was homeschooling the “right way.” And yet her daughter — bright, curious, twelve years old — was disengaged. Resistant. Going through the motions, most of the time, so she could put her books back in her designated basket so she could run off and play. Joni kept adjusting the external pieces. Different workbooks. Different incentives beyond playtime or screentime. She offered her daughter more flexibility. Less flexibility. The result was always the same. Not the daughter she’d hoped to homeschool. Not the child the curriculum would work for. The specific, real, living girl in front of her — with her own interests, her own learning rhythms, her own quiet signals about what was and wasn’t working. The Question Underneath the Question That shift — from am I following the right method? to is this right for this child? — was where freedom lived. If you’d rather listen than read — or you want to share this conversation with a homeschool mom you know — I’ve covered all of this in this week’s podcast episode too. Press play below. https://youtu.be/ICLwWbL_9Uc?si=mfVtMHFoSfTdfYhf Am I Homeschooling My Child the Right Way? A Framework for Making Decisions You Can Trust After many conversations like the one I had with Joni, I built something I call the Right-for-This-Child Framework — six questions designed not to grade your homeschool, but to help you think with your child instead of about her. It’s not a lens into the reality of your homeschool kiddo and your homeschool plans. Here are two of the six questions, because they tend to be where the most immediate relief lives when you’re wondering if you’re homeschooling your child the right way: “Does this approach honour who she is right now?” Not who she was six months ago. Not who you’re hoping she’ll grow into. Who she is today — her interests, her energy, her actual learning preferences. This sounds obvious until you realize how often we design our homeschool around a future version of our child who doesn’t quite exist yet. The more focused, more compliant, more grateful version. Or even the child that doesn’t exist. And I’ll add that sometimes we’re trying to build a homeschool around the “child” that is within you! You might be, like me, trying to build a homeschool you would LOVE at age 28-54;) Meanwhile, the real child in front of us is sending signals we’re too busy adjusting the plan to receive. Observing your child’s energy — not just her output — is data. When she lights up, that’s data. When she goes quiet in a particular way, that’s data. Small, genuine check-ins about how she’s experiencing things give you more useful information than any progress tracker. “Am I reacting out of fear right now — or out of clarity?” This one requires self-awareness. So much of what looks like a homeschool problem is actually a mom’s nervous system problem. When a child resists or stalls, it can activate something old — a fear about falling behind, about not being enough, about her future narrowing in some irreversible way. From that place, we tend to push harder, control more, and inadvertently make the resistance worse. The practice is simple but not easy: pause before you respond. Five or ten minutes. Journal a sentence. Let the reactive emotional wave pass. What’s left after the pause is almost always much closer to your actual wisdom. The Other Four Questions (And What They Cover) The full framework goes further — into aligning decisions with your core values, weighing short-term discomfort against long-term growth, building flexibility into your plans rather than demanding perfection, and creating a simple weekly rhythm of reflection and recalibration. Together they give you a repeatable way to move through doubt. Not by eliminating it — but by using it as a starting point rather than a stopping point. The real answer to “am I homeschooling my child the right way” is never yes or no. It’s: are you paying attention, staying curious, and adjusting as you learn? If yes — you’re doing it right. The Doubt Is Not the Actually the Problem Joni didn’t need a new curriculum. She needed permission to trust what she already knew about her daughter — and a structure to help her hear herself think. If you’re in that place right now — doing the work, carrying the worry, wondering if anyone else feels this too — I want you to say this out loud: The fact that I’m asking this question means I’m the right person for this. Say that sentence again. And again. Remember that “bad homeschool moms” don’t lie awake wondering if they’re getting it right. The negligent homeschool moms aren’t googling “am I homeschool my child the right way” at midnight? (ps If I’m right and YOU are googling those words and that’s why you found me, drop me a comment below, I’d love to hear!) If you’d like support figuring out what “right for this child” actually looks like in your specific home, with your specific kid — that’s exactly the kind of conversation I’m here for. Start there. The rest tends to follow. Free Resources to Help You Homeschool With Confidence You’ve made it this far in this post because something here resonated. Maybe it was the question you’ve been carrying quietly. Or maybe it was Joni’s story. Maybe it was simply the relief of someone finally saying there is no single right way. Whatever brought you here — whether you googled “am I homeschooling my child the right way” or stumbled in through a friend’s share — I don’t want you to leave empty-handed. Depending on where you are in your homeschool journey, I’ve created something specific for you. Take the one that fits. For First-Year Homeschool Moms: The Confident Homeschool Roadmap Starting your homeschool journey is one of the bravest things a mom can do — and one of the most disorienting. You pulled your child out of traditional school (or never put them in) because you believed there was something better. And now you’re staring at a blank calendar wondering where to begin. The Confident Homeschool Roadmap is your starting point. It walks you through the foundational decisions every new homeschool mom needs to make — in the right order, without the overwhelm — so you can stop spinning and start building something that actually fits your child and your family. Inside you’ll find a clear sequence for getting started, questions that help you define what you want homeschooling to look like, and a simple structure that creates confidence without locking you into someone else’s method. When you download the Roadmap, you’ll also receive the Purposeful Homeschool Mom Weekly newsletter — a short, grounding note each week with practical encouragement, honest reflections, and tools to help you keep trusting yourself through every stage of this journey. → Grab Your Free Confident Homeschool Roadmap Download your 1st Year Confident Homeschool Roadmap For Moms Who’ve Been At It a While: The Deschool Your Homeschool Checklist You homeschool to give your child something better. So why does it still feel like you’re just recreating school at home? Your child resists anything that looks like “school.” You’re stuck somewhere between structure and freedom, second-guessing every decision, and quietly wondering if you’re doing it wrong. Here’s the truth: you’re not doing it wrong. You just haven’t deschooled yet. Or maybe you need to deschool deeper or for a new season of your family life. Deschooling is the most commonly skipped step in homeschooling — and the one that makes a ginormous difference. It’s the process of letting go of traditional school thinking so you can build something that actually fits your child, your values, and your real life. What You’ll Work Through Inside the Checklist The Deschool Your Homeschool Checklist is your reset button. It’s a free, simple guide that helps you: Step back from school-y mindsets that are quietly running the show Reconnect with how your child actually learns — not how school said she should Create space for curiosity, calm, and genuine connection Set a new course with intention and clarity Inside you’ll work through seven foundational shifts: observing your child’s natural interests, noticing what genuinely sparks their excitement, understanding their real learning style, examining the rhythms of your family relationships, getting curious about boredom instead of fixing it, defining your own version of education, and embracing the gaps instead of fighting them. When you download the Checklist, you’ll also be joining the Purposeful Homeschool Mom Weekly newsletter — where each week I share honest encouragement, practical tools, and gentle reminders that you are more capable of this than you think. → Download the Free Deschool Your Homeschool Checklist

Sanjana Polapragada sits down with President Jakov Milatović of Montenegro, NATO's youngest head of state, for a timely conversation on how Montenegro, as a small state, can exercise influence at a decisive moment for its EU ambitions, economic future, and role in a world shaped by geopolitical tensions and shifting alliances. From Montenegro's push toward EU accession to its new economic growth model, President Milatović offers a candid look at the choices shaping his country's future. The conversation explores economic diplomacy, international trade, and how governments can support those left behind by global change. It also examines the pressures Montenegro faces between East and West, including gray zone warfare and Russian and Chinese influence. At its heart, the episode explores Montenegrin identity: how unity, inclusion, and shared civic values can bind together a multiethnic and multireligious society. Blending geopolitics, governance, and personal insight, this episode offers a compelling look at leadership, resilience, and the role small states can play in shaping a more stable world order.

During the Irish War of Independence, republicans in Ireland looked far beyond Britain and America for support. In Egypt and India, they found allies. Secret meetings took place between IRA representatives and Egyptian revolutionaries, while Irish republicans also made contact with Indian nationalists who were waging their own struggle against British rule. Across the Empire, activists began to see their causes as connected, bound together by a common enemy and a shared desire for freedom.But this was never a simple story of solidarity. For generations, Irish people had also served the British Empire in India and the Middle East as soldiers, policemen and civil servants. This episode explores the forgotten links between Ireland, Egypt and India, revealing how the Irish Revolution was shaped not only by events at home, but by anti-colonial struggles unfolding across the wider world.Support the show and get ad-free early episodes at patreon.com/irishpodcastThe series is researched, written, and presented by Dr Brian Hanley.

Death wasn't the end for ancient Egyptians; it was a gauntlet.

The Irish War of Independence & Revolution saw the IRA pitted against Crown forces across the island. However, on the ground in Ireland, allegiance was often more complicated than is sometimes remembered.Ireland had a long tradition of service in the British Army, and during the conflict thousands of Irishmen served not only in British military ranks but also in the police forces sent to crush the revolution. Even the Black and Tans, remembered as outsiders and occupiers, included surprising numbers of Irish recruits.This episode explores the uncomfortable and often forgotten story of the Irish who fought for Britain. Who were these men? Why did they serve the Crown, in Ireland and across the Empire? What drew them into the British Army, the Royal Irish Constabulary, and even the ranks of the Black and Tans? And what does their story reveal about Ireland's deep and complicated relationship with the British Empire?This is Episode 5 of Brothers in Pain, a global history of the Irish Revolution.

“The Irish fight for liberty is the greatest epic of the modern age… those suffering together under British imperialism must learn to coordinate their effort before they can hope to be free.”These words from the Black radical Cyril Briggs captured how many people of colour viewed the Irish War of Independence. Today, the Irish Revolution is usually remembered as a struggle shaped by empire, nationalism and religion. But race also haunted this history. As Ireland fought for freedom, racial tensions were erupting across the world. In 1919, the United States was convulsed by the Red Summer, when white mobs launched brutal attacks on African American communities. At the same time, many opponents of Irish independence portrayed the conflict in Ireland as a racial struggle.Yet the relationship between Irish republicans and Black radicals was never straightforward. While Black activists looked to Ireland with hope, many Irish leaders were slow to support Black struggles and some even argued that Ireland deserved freedom precisely because the Irish were white.This episode uncovers the forgotten story of solidarity, suspicion and betrayal between Irish and Black radicals and reveals how deeply the politics of race shaped the Irish War of Independence.This is the fourth episode in Brothers in Pain a groundbreaking Global history of the Irish War of Independence by Dr Brian HanleyWritten, Researched & Narrated by Dr Brian Hanley.

Turning Tides: Palestine will cover the period from 30,000 B.C.E. to Present, in which Palestine tries to maintain its diversity and cultural heritage, while being ravaged by the effects of colonization, settler-colonialism, and the violent weaponization of religious text to force conversion and assimilation. The first episode, Revelation, will cover the period from 30,000 B.C.E. to 336 B.C.E., in which the Bronze Age ends, causing the collapse of several civilizations, as well as the formation of large empires, like Assyria, Babylon, and Persia.If you'd like to donate or sponsor the podcast, our PayPal is @TurningTidesPodcast1, or you can donate to us through our Buy Me a Coffee link: buymeacoffee.com/theturningtidespodcast.

"Intercourse between Bolshevism and Sinn Féin" These were the words one British newspaper used to describe the relationship between the Irish Republican movement and the fledgling Soviet Union during the Irish Revolution. It was an unlikely pairing. Ireland became a deeply conservative, Catholic country where communism was viewed with suspicion and fear. Yet during the Irish War of Independence, as British forces fought republicans across the island, whispers of Soviet support and communist sympathy rippled through both Dublin and London.But how real was this link? Did the IRA truly seek Soviet weapons and backing? And what did Moscow make of Irish republicanism? This episode uncovers the remarkable and forgotten story of how Ireland and Soviet Russia came to view each other as potential allies, and why that relationship would ultimately collapse. This is the third episode in Brothers in Pain ia groundbreaking series by Dr Brian Hanley that explores the international dimensions of the Irish War of Independence. Written, Researched & Narrated by Dr Brian Hanley.

“Keep handing it to the Micks. The Roman Catholic Irish are, and always have been, the only un-Americanised people in the United States.” These words came from a supporter of Admiral William S. Sims, an ardent opponent of Irish republicans in the United States in the 1920s. This episode of Brothers in Pain explores the crucial battle for American public opinion during the Irish War of Independence. While the equivalent of over one hundred million dollars was raised for republican organisations and for victims of the war of independence in Ireland, there was also strong opposition to Irish independence in the United States. Leading American politicians regarded Britain as a key ally, while groups like the Ku Klux Klan despised what they saw as immigrant politics. This podcast tells the history of this crucial battleground in the Irish War of Independence.

"There were spies, informers and degenerates of every kind and we were here to do business." These were the words an IRA activist describing his desperate, shadowy quest to source weapons for the IRA in Europe. But who were these people who traded weapons and information to support the IRA campaign in Ireland. In this episode of Brothers in Pain: The IRA in a Revolutionary World, Dr. Brian Hanley goes beyond the battlefields to uncover the hidden networks of the Irish Revolution. From the dangerous underworld of the continent to clandestine shipments across the Atlantic, we meet the smugglers, gun runners and fixers who operated in the shadows. This is the true story of the individuals who made the revolution possible in the face of impossible odds.Support the show: www.patreon.com/irishpodcastWritten, Researched & Narrated by Dr Brian HanleyProducer Fin DwyerSound Kate DunleaNote from Brian :In researching these episodes I have been indebted to the work of the following scholars;Anna Lively, Sam McGrath, Bruce Nelson, Terry Dunne, David Brundage, Niamh Coffey, Gerard Shannon,Maurice Casey, Kelly Anne Reynolds, Chris McNickle, Joe Doyle, Liz Gillis, FM Carroll, PatrickMannion, Jimmy Yann, Niall Cullen, Pádraig Óg Ó Ruairc, Keith Jeffrey, Arthur Mitchell, JohnBorgonovo, Kate O'Malley, Michael Doorley, Robin Adams, Kevin Kenny, Fearghal McGarry,Catherine M.

In 1997, two lads walked into a bank in LA, and well, the walk out ain't so easy. However, what's even madder is the string of robberies that they had done before that, getting more and more violent. Two absolute mad lads that's for sure. Keith has photos of them in his wallet.
