Podcast appearances and mentions of sam millar

In the first half of this episode, we heard all about Sam's upbringing in the north, joining the IRA, and his brutal treatment in the H Blocks. But that's not the end of Sam's story, after being released from prison he headed off to the US where he undertook one of the biggest thefts in US history - Robbing $7.4 million!Sam told us about his decision to steal the money after seeing it laying all around the Brinks and how they had to unload millions from their van before making their escape after it was too weighed down with cash to start. He also told us about getting a priest involved, how they got caught and how they avoided life in prison.Tickets available to our biggest live show to date in the Bord Gais Energy Theatre on July 11th here: https://www.ticketmaster.ie/talking-bollox-live-tickets/artist/5381757

If you listened to Part 1 of our interview with Sam Millar, you know that we first heard his story from our producer Eoin, who was working on a documentary called Unusual Suspects. That series won Silver at the New York Festival Radio Awards and we think it's worth giving you all a chance to listen to it before the rest of the interview is out tomorrow so here it is!**On an icy night in January, 1993, masked gunmen walk into a Brinks vault in Rochester, New York. They leave with $7.4m in cash and a hostage. It was one of the largest heists in American history. But was this the work of criminal masterminds, or something very different? As police arrive on the scene they find some interesting clues, and an early hunch for investigators could prove critical.**Listen to more of Unusual Suspects now: https://link.goloudplayer.com/s/sGRWX45FDGAP

We went all the way to Belfast for this episode and nearly missed our train home because we couldn't stop talking to Sam. Sam Millar is a former member of the IRA, having joined when he was just 15 after Bloody Sunday and seeing the brutal murder of his best friend for being Catholic. Sam spent 8 years in the H Blocks on the blanket and no wash protests and he told us what it was like to live those conditions and why he didn't want to come off the protest in the end. The torture Sam endured at the hands of the prison guards was horrific and it's hard to understand why he kept fighting until you hear him explain it.Sam's story doesn't stop there though, after his time in prison, Sam snuck into the US where he was involved in one of the biggest heists in US history, stealing nearly $8 million. We'll get into all that later this week!Tickets available to our biggest live show to date in the Bord Gais Energy Theatre on July 11th here: https://www.ticketmaster.ie/talking-bollox-live-tickets/artist/5381757

In this episode I talk with Sam Millar, author of poetry collection Retail Park, and graduate of ARU's BA (Hons) Writing and English Literature degree. Sam's book was published by Querencia Press in 2022, and he talks about how his home town of Basildon was a major influence on his work, as well as the inspiration he took from meeting other writers and poets on the course, and how learning to give and receive feedback completely changed the way he worked.

Sam also shares with me his experience when he was in the Maze. He was one of the political prisoners in Maze prison ("Long Kesh") in Northern Ireland who protested having to wear regular prison uniforms, and made their own uniforms out of prison blankets (called the "blanket protest").

Bombs- Brinks & Books… Former IRA man tells his story! Sam Millar shares his incredible journey through life so far.One that resembles something from a film, pain, heartache, sacrifice and much more… 

The four accused men prepare to face trial together, but cracks begin to appear in the relationship between Father Pat and Sam Millar. The prosecution sets up their case, but do they have enough hard evidence to convince the jury? The trial becomes a major news story, with media watching every move and Father Pat happy to declare his innocence publicly. As the start date nears there is cause for concern on all sides, as Sam and Pat fight for their freedom and the FBI fight to prove they have unraveled the Brinks mystery.

As the FBI watch Sam Millar they start looking closely at the priest he has been meeting with, Father Patrick Moloney. And he is no ordinary priest. For Moloney, the story of the Brinks is just the latest in a lifetime of remarkable events. The investigation into the heist intensifies, but months after the robbery the FBI are still no closer to the cash. A change in routine could offer them the breakthrough they've been waiting for.

As the FBI hunt for the Brinks thieves, they know there is one lead they have to track down: Sam Millar. But Sam is very different to most people they track down. His story takes us back to the days of the Troubles in Northern Ireland, through years imprisoned in the notorious H Blocks of Long Kesh and the Blanket protests, and a daring entry to the United States.

The FBI's search for Sam Millar leads them to New York City. Surveillance agents begin scouring the streets of Queens to find the fugitive Irishman, and as they close in on Sam what they find takes them by surprise, as comic books take centre stage in the Brinks investigation, and an Irish priest appears on the scene.

Petit retour avec deux nouveaux livres : un polar sombre en Irlande avec le Cannibale de Crumlin Road de Sam Millar et Paris est une fête, un roman-souvenirs du séjour à Paris d'Ernest Hemingway

Mission encre noire Tome 13 chapitre 181 Carte blanche à Carnets noirs ce mardi. Morgane nous présente l'irlandais Sam Millar. Son dernier roman Le cannibale de Crumlin Road paru en 2015 aux éditions du Seuil Policier met en scène le détective privé Karl Kane, déjà croisé dans Les chiens de Belfast. Il est embauché cette fois-ci par une jeune femme pour retrouver sa soeur alors qu'un prédateur fou rôde dans les rues de Belfast. J'ajouterai que Sam Millar est un auteur bien à part, sa biographie pourrait bien ressembler à celle de certains de ses personnages.   Hérétiques de Leonardo Padura paru en 2014 aux éditions Métaillé est notre deuxième choix et non des moindres. Nous retrouvons le personnage fétiche de l'auteur, le cubain, Mario Conde, ancien flic de la criminelle. Il est chargé de remonter le fil de l'histoire du vol d'un tableau du grand peintre hollandais Rembrandt dans le port de La havane en 1939 et mis en vente de nos jours lors d'une vente aux enchères. Voici l'occasion de remonter le temps pour tutoyer le peintre, lui-même, humer l'air du temps de l'époque du dictateur Batista et fréquenter les ruelles de La Havane aux côtés d'une jeunesse cubaines qui s'ennuient à mourir... Extrait: "La campagne contre l'éventuel débarquement des réfugiés fut une explosion d'opportunismes et de bassesses. Les nazis cubains, peu nombreux mais très débrouillards, s'opposaient à toute immigration qui ne fût pas blanche et catholique, car non seulement ils exigeaient qu'on empêchât d'entrer les étrangers du moment, mais ils allaient jusqu'à réclamer l'expulsion des juifs déjà établis dans l'île et, au passage, des journaliers jamaiquains et haitiens: il fallait blanchir la nation".

An exploration into the enduring appeal of the Dire Straits classic, Brothers in Arms. Although thought to have been written by Mark Knopfler in response to the Falklands war in the mid 80's, it's a piece that people now associate with many other conflicts ; military, personal and social. Dire Straits bass player, John Illsley explains why it remains such a special piece for the band, while Marines chaplain, Nigel Beardsley, recalls the important part it's played in the lives of so many soldiers in Iran and Afghanistan and why it's now often heard at military funerals. The Irish playwright, Sam Millar describes why he based a very personal play around the song and Snuffy Walden, music director of the hit American TV show, The West Wing, talks about how the series writer, Aaron Sorkin insisted on it being used in its entirety during a crucial episode. Prof Alan Moore of Surrey University explains how it's Knopfler's brilliant use of harmony that gives the song the sense of yearning that has made it into one of the most enduring pop songs of the last century. Producer: Lucy Lunt.
