In his third appearance on Irish Stew, historian Dr. Damian Shiels joins Martin Nutty for a wide-ranging and thought-provoking conversation. Now living in Finland, Damian shares the personal story behind his move abroad, driven by Ireland's rising cost of living and the opportunities remote work provides.The episode explores Damian's latest projects, including "Transatlantic", a new podcast he co-hosts with Finn Dwyer, which dives deep into the historical connections between Ireland and America.Damian also discusses his groundbreaking new book, Green and Blue: Irish Americans in the Union Military, 1861–1865. The culmination of 15 years of research, the book offers a powerful and detailed examination of the Irish experience during the American Civil War, revealing the socio-economic realities and identities of Irish soldiers in Union ranks.Throughout the episode, themes of immigration, identity, and racism are explored, connecting past and present. Damian and Martin reflect on how understanding the history of the Irish diaspora can illuminate today's pressing issues—from housing crises to evolving notions of Irish identity, both at home and abroad.

Bestselling author and No Kid Hungry supporter John Grisham gives listeners a behind-the-scenes look into how Share Our Strength founders and siblings Billy and Debbie Shore built their successful childhood hunger nonprofit from humble beginnings and a great idea. “In my memory, we knew that we had a really big and powerful idea… we just didn't know the path," explains Debbie. “We also weirdly had a sense that this was going to take a long time to accomplish, that we were going to be committed to it for a long time. That actually took some of the pressure off of those very difficult early years where we didn't honestly have a lot to show for people,“ Billy adds. “I don't think we've ever had a year that felt like the year before. We've always added new initiatives, new ways of raising funds, new programmatic impact efforts, and it's just always felt different and growing,” he continues. From a $2,000 cash advance and a sub-basement office, the Shores persevered to feed millions of hungry kids. "Childhood hunger in the United States is a solvable problem," both Shores often say. "Just two years ago, only 3 million kids were getting fed in the summertime. Today, with 37 states having opted in to that program, that number is 18 million kids,” Billy reports. Grisham marvels at the Shore siblings' ability to work so closely together for decades. "I have two sisters… we could not stay in the same room and work together for 40 minutes. I can't believe you guys have done it for 40 years,” he says. Listen for a rare opportunity to learn how impactful organizations are built and sustained.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What happens when the very systems meant to help refugees end up hurting them instead? And what can the Church do to help? In today's episode, Kent Annan and Dr. Jamie Aten talk with Matthew Soerens from World Relief about the real impact of U.S. refugee policies—especially the dramatic changes under the Trump administration. Matt pulls back the curtain on what's happening behind the scenes: families stuck in limbo, staff furloughs at resettlement agencies, and churches stepping in to help. We also talk about how policy decisions can create ripple effects that last for years. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who cares about justice, faith, and showing up for vulnerable communities. Plus, Matt shares ways churches can advocate, volunteer, and help cut through the noise to create real change.
