Six months into the new Government, and all seems to be oddly quiet in the world of Irish politics. Yes, we've had the furore over the Regional Independent Group's support for the Coalition, Verona Murphy's survival of no-confidence and the ruckus that followed Michael Lowry's memorable two-finger salute. But since the dust settled on all the “ruaille buaille” of those rocky first days in January, business has been unusually quiet in Dáil Éireann. So, what has this Government actually achieved so far? Has it lived up to its numerous election promises? Or is it simply too early to call our elected officials to account?

On episode 173 Off the Ball journalist Eoin Sheahan joins the podcast to unpack his captivating podcast series, Diverted, chronicling his travels across Latin America through the lens of sport, culture, and personal discovery. We dive into the creative process behind crafting a documentary-style podcast on the move, exploring stories from Palestine football in South America, basketball in Guatemala - where their average height is 5 feet, Alexis McCallister and his family football academy, Juventus in Belize where they all speak German, Mayo hurling (yes Mayo hurling), interviewing the Belize senior men's football manager in his house and more. Eoin shares the challenges of capturing authentic audio in unpredictable environments, immersive storytelling, sport as a method of connection and understanding culture. We also discuss tailgating at GAA games and bringing an American style to the All-Ireland final weekends. Halftime show? Tailgating? Saturday evening games like the 2019 football replay under sunset/night sky? Tune in for a rich conversation about South American sport through an irish lens, obscure sports, an international influence on local teams, culture, creativity, hitchhiking, and the art of narrative in a world of constant change.Listen to diverted on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6rjuEV2OLCMSahhGJYD8n2?si=8bcb8b27f6e44f10 Find Eoin here https://x.com/EoinSheahan https://www.instagram.com/eoinsheahan/ eoinsheahan1@gmail.com Follow The Sideline Live Social Media channels: https://twitter.com/thesidelinelive https://www.instagram.com/thesidelinelive/ Recorded using Samson Q2 microphone, Edited using GarageBandIntro music, Watered Eyes by a talented Irish artist, Dillon Ward check him out here .

The rise and fall of Glen Ward – the gangster known as ‘Mr Flashy', has played out in less than a decade. Last week Glen Ward was given a five and a half year sentence while his brother Eric was previously jailed for five years. Because of the threat to his safety, Ward has been held on a 23.5 hour lock-up, while the address of the prison also cannot be published. However, gardaí have no doubt that they have not seen the last of the 32-year-old criminal, who is due to be released from prison while still in his mid-30s.

At his best, the Dubliner was a broadcaster of the first rank, one who could delight, entertain, inform, infuriate and challenge the listener – often over the course of a single show. But in the end, the life of Gerry Ryan was tragically cut short on his sudden death, which was as hotly debated as any “Ryan Line” phone-in special. Host; Fionnán Sheahan, Guests; John Meagher and Niamh Horan Copy: Today, April 30, marks the 15th anniversary of Gerry Ryan's untimely death aged 53. That Gerry-shaped hole has never quite been filled at RTÉ. At his best, the Dubliner was a broadcaster of the first rank, one who could delight, entertain, inform, infuriate and challenge the listener – often over the course of a single show. He was an undeniable force of nature in the world of Irish broadcasting. Controversy also didn't really faze the man, in fact, he made his career off the back of it. His voracious appetite for life, and indeed becoming a major part of the lives of his audience, was quintessential Gerry Ryan, as was his signature rambunctious approach to the microphone. Love or loathe the man, you had an opinion about him. But in the end, the life of Gerry Ryan was tragically cut short, with his sudden death as hotly debated as any “Ryan Line” phone-in special. Today on the Indo Daily, Fionnán Sheahan is joined by Mediahuis Ireland journalists John Meagher and Niamh Horan, to reflect on the days of a true broadcasting legend, his legacy on the Irish airwaves and to remember the days when the Ryan Line was open.
