Hello and welcome to today's conversation with Andrew McCauley, a clinical specialist physiotherapist in lower limb/strength & conditioning, from Ireland and now based in the UKIn today's conversation, we talk about Andrew's journey as a physio, a coach and an educator, teaching therapists how to communicate effectively, especially around integrating strength and conditioning principles into rehab (and why I think he's a covert pelvic physio...)We talked about the importance of being a good communicator, especially when working with people in pain, building trust and creating a safe space, for discussing sensitive topics such as pelvic health.We also explored the principles of strength and conditioning, focusing on the importance of understanding concepts like stability and progressive overload. Andrew talked about how easy it can be for us to overlook the basics, but how we can effectively conduct strength training exercises without equipment, highlighting the need for effort and proper rest (we also discussed how we can intersect the worlds of pelvic health and strength training)We discussed exercise prescription strategies, how to adapt exercises based on patient characteristics and goals and how to get really good at asking better questions...as well as Therapist Anxiety Syndrome (you'll have to listen to find out more!)Andrew is all about empowering patients through clear goal setting and enhancing physio education and practice - I'm excited to be a student on Andrew's upcoming course, integrating coaching principles with strength and conditioning principles. His course in Ireland will be in beautiful Sligo but he teaches all over the UK as well - all the details on his instagram @procaresportsWant to learn more about helping women at every age and stage?

For the first time in three years, Maigh Cuilinn are back in AIB Connacht Senior Football Championship action this Sunday (9th November 2025) when they travel to take on Sligo winners Shamrock Gaels. The west Galway men won their third Frank Fox two weeks previously against Salthill-Knocknacarra and they'll now hope to add to their 2022 provincial success.  But even though they'll start as favourites, the Yeats County did produce last year's winners (Coolera-Strandhill), so a tough test is expected. Leading up to the game, Maigh Cuilinn manager Cathal Clancy has been chatting to Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly. == Throw-in at Kilcoyne Park, Tubbercurry on Sunday is 1.30pm and we'll have LIVE coverage here on Galway Bay FM.

Trojan Track, BackAware and Slíglas have been named as Munster regional winners at this year's InterTradeIreland Seedcorn Investor Readiness Competition. The three categories included Business-to-Business, Business-to-Consumer and Deep Tech. Trojan Track won in the B2B category, BackAware won in the B2C category, while Slíglas won in the Deep Tech category. Each company received €50,000 and will advance to the All-Island final in Dublin on November 13th. The InterTradeIreland Seedcorn Investor Readiness Competition is the largest business competition of its kind on the island of Ireland, offering a total prize fund of €800,000 to promising start-ups and early-stage businesses. The Seedcorn competition offers start-up businesses the chance to win big without giving away an equity stake. B2B Category Trojan Track, based at the National Equine Innovation Centre at the Irish National Stud in Kildare, was founded in December 2021 by biomedical engineer Stephen O'Dwyer. Trojan Track provides an accessible, non-invasive way to monitor a horse's movement, without disrupting their routine or relying on expensive, uncomfortable wearable tech. The AI-driven platform delivers objective, science-backed insights into a horse's biomechanics. Whether the aim is to enhance performance, reduce the risk of injury, or support recovery, TrojanTrack gives the data required to make smarter decisions. Built on innovation, tested in real-world environments, and designed with the welfare of the horse at its core, TrojanTrack is shaping the future of equine care. Stephen O'Dwyer, Founder and CEO of Trojan Track, said: "Seedcorn has been a brilliant experience for us as a startup. It's validation that TrojanTrack isn't just a great product, but a scalable SaaS business with global potential. The feedback from judges and mentors has been invaluable as we prepare for our next funding round." B2C Category Meanwhile, BackAware, who are based in Kilkenny, won in the B2C category. The BackAware Belt is a wearable technology that gives instant feedback on your back position, allowing for better posture and lifting technique. Founder Eoin Everard's idea came about after he saw people exercise in the gym in a way that was going to cause a lot of problems. Eoin Everard, Founder and CEO of BackAware, said: "I am delighted to win in the B2C category in the Seedcorn Connacht and Leinster finals. I'm really looking forward to the national finals in Dublin next month. Thanks to InterTradeIreland for all of their support to date. Entering Seedcorn has been hugely valuable, and I feel our messaging for pitching to investors is now much clearer now. We received great feedback each step of the way to improve our investor readiness. The money from the regional competition will allow us to complete the development of our product, making us more attractive to investors in 2026." Deep Tech Category Slíglas was founded in 2024 by Paul McGoldrick and Sadhbh McCarrick and is based in Sligo. Slíglas transforms residual biomass into biochar for Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR). This is done by heating woody residues to create a stable form of carbon that can be sequestered in soil. Put another way, Slíglas is the reverse of fossil fuel extraction, instead returning carbon to the earth. Slíglas sells removals to companies looking to offset hard-to-abate emissions as part of their wider net-zero strategy. Paul McGoldrick, CEO of Slíglas, said: "We are delighted that Slíglas have won in the Seedcorn regional finals. Slíglas's USP encompasses both tech and market. The company is developing streamlined pyrolysis reactors optimised for carbon dioxide removal. Ireland is a massive untapped opportunity, with abundant residues suitable for conversion to biochar and a large agriculture sector that can benefit from biochar application to boost soil health." All companies emerged victorious from a group of six innovative start-ups and early-stage businesses representing Connacht and Leinster. T...

Included are a Dindshenchas, Bansenchas, and versions of Lebor Gabála, Uraicept an nÉces, Cóir Anmann, and Book of Rights.

Stoirm Amy: 184,000 áitreabh gan cumhacht leictreach. A man was seriously injured in an accident in Co. Donegal today which was caused by severe weather, Gardaí say. Gortaíodh fear go dona i dtimpiste i gCo Dhún na nGall inniu arbh í an aimsir gharbh ba shiocair leis, a deir na Gardaí. The accident happened in Letterkenny at around 4.15pm. Tharla an tionóisc i Leitir Ceanainn ag thart ar 4.15 tráthnóna. As Storm Amy makes its way across the country, it is reported that approximately 184,000 properties are currently without electrical power. Agus Stoirm Amy ag déanamh a díchill ar fud na tíre, tuairiscítear go bhfuil thart ar 184,000 áitreabh gan cumhacht leictreach faoi láthair. Meteorologists have announced seven different weather warnings – from yellow to red – in various parts of the country. Tá seacht bhfoláireamh éagsúla aimsire fógartha ag na meitéareolaithe – ó bhuí go dearg – in áiteanna éagsúla sa tír. The most serious of these is the red sea warning that has been issued between 2pm and 8pm this evening from Head of Limerick in Co Clare to Head of Roscommon in Co Donegal to Benmore in Co Antrim. Is tromchúisí dar ndóigh an foláireamh dearg mara atá fógartha idir 2 a chlog agus 8 a chlog tráthnóna inniu ó Cheann Léime i gCo an Chláir go Ceann Ros Eoghain i gCo Dhún na nGall go dtí an Bhinn Mhór i gCo Aontroma. In fact, the weather is most severe along the coastline between Galway and Donegal, with winds reaching up to 120 kilometres per hour, although almost every part of the country has received its share of the storm. Go deimhin, is feadh an imeallbhoird idir Gaillimh agus Dún na nGall is gairbhe atá an aimsir, mar a bhfuil suas le 120 ciliméadar san uair faoin ngaoth, siúd is go bhfuil mórán gach áit sa tíre tar éis a cion féin den tuargaint a fháil. Met Éireann says the wind gusts are above average and are likely to cause power outages in more places, down trees and cause sea waves to hit shores. Deir Met Éireann go bhfuil neart os meán sa stangadh gaoithe agus gur dóichí go ngearrfar an chumhacht i dtuilleadh áiteanna, go leagfar crainn agus go dtonnfaidh an fharraige isteach ar chladaí dá bhíthin. Since the timely announcement, people in the most remote places have been protecting themselves since yesterday against what is inevitable. Ó tugadh fógra go tráthúil, tá daoine in áiteanna is sceirdiúla á ndíonadh féin ó inné ar an rud nach bhfuil inseachanta. For example, sandbags have been pressed tightly against doorways in Donegal and Sligo to prevent water from leaking into homes and shops, especially in areas where the public has bought in. Cuir i gcás, tá málaí gainimh brúite isteach go dlúth le doirse i nDún na nGall agus i Sligeach ar fhaitíos go sceithfeadh uisce isteach i dtithe agus i siopaí, go háirithe i gceantair a bhfuil ciall cheannaithe ag an bpobal. People are also being urged to use common sense and stay home rather than risking danger and defying the quarantine without good reason. Táthar ag achainí ar dhaoine gnáthchiall a bheith acu freisin agus fanacht sa bhaile seachas dul i nguais agus dúshlán na síne a thabhairt gan údar maith. People must be alert to downed power lines, says the Electricity Supply Board, and not touch or touch them. Ní mór do dhaoine a bheith san airdeall ar shreanga cumhachta atá tite, a deir Bord Soláthair an Leictreachais, agus gan drannadh leo ná lámh a leagan orthu. The company says its technicians are trained and on standby to carry out repair work as soon as possible, if necessary. Deir an comhlacht go bhfuil a gcuid teicneoirí innealta agus ar fuireachas le hobair dheisiúcháin a dhéanamh a thúisce is féidir, más gá. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ

Folkways welcomes back esteemed guest Thomas Sheridan!

In the rain-soaked woods below Knocknarea in Sligo, Ireland, a man raised human but born fae bargains with the Fair Folk to save his unborn child. Armed with “cold iron” bullets, a stolen sprite, and a prophecy learned from a carnival crone's mirror, he confronts an emerald pillar of flame and an ancient court that claims his bloodline. Irish folklore collides with modern terror as love, identity, and iron lore decide the fate of a family. Expect changelings, eerie glens, moss-slick boulders, and a showdown where one wrong move means a crib left empty forever. Weekly Spooky delivers a tense, folklore-rich horror story perfect for fans of fairies, fae bargains, and dark Celtic mythology.Abandonment Issues — by Douglas Waltz.
