This week on The Knock On, KCLR Sport's weekly rugby podcast, Stephen Byrne is joined by Tom Crotty of Carlow Rugby Club, James Blanchfield from Kilkenny RFC, and Paddy Browne of Tullow RFC to break down all the latest action from across the local rugby scene.Carlow delivered a dominant performance in the Towns Cup, overpowering New Ross 66–0 to book their place in the next round, where they will face Wicklow. The fixture also carried a poignant moment, with a tribute paid to the late Martin Dunphy. Martin was a former Carlow player and a central figure in the club's golden era, playing a pivotal role in the historic Towns Cup teams that achieved an unprecedented three-in-a-row in 1992, 1993 and 1994.The scheduled ladies' game involving Carlow was unfortunately called off due to adverse weather conditions.Kilkenny also progressed in the Towns Cup following a solid 27–7 victory over Enniscorthy. They now set up a next-round clash with Tullow. It was a successful outing for Kilkenny across the board, with their women's side continuing their impressive form by defeating Navan 24–10. That result leaves the Kilkenny women with an outstanding record of nine wins from ten games this season.Tullow, meanwhile, had a bye in the Towns Cup but came into the next round with confidence after a strong league win over Seapoint the previous week, despite finishing that match with just 13 players. Tullow returns to league action this weekend with a challenging fixture away to Wicklow.We also bring you all the latest youth rugby news and updates from around the region.All that and more on The Knock On.

A quiet evening stroll takes a horrifying turn. A beloved teacher and librarian becomes the target of a hate-driven ambush.On June 21, 1985, Toronto school librarian and teacher Kenneth Zeller, a well-liked educator at three schools, was walking to his car after a night with friends when five teenage boys ambushed him in High Park, brutally beating him to death in a homophobic hate crime. This episode unpacks the senseless violence of that midsummer night, the chilling group dynamics, and the cultural climate that labeled queer spaces as danger zones. As we explore the aftermath, from legal responses to the community's rallying to remember him as more than a victim. We delve into queer history, systemic intolerance, and the scars these injustices leave behind.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light, all with a cold one in hand.Press play, raise a glass, and join us as we honor Kenneth Zeller's memory and confront the shadows of LGBTQ+ history.

5/8. After the death of Patroclus, Achilles undergoes a transformation in The Iliad, as translated by Professor Emily Wilson. Initially expressing rage through the violent sacrifice of Trojan youths at Patroclus's funeral pyre, Achilles later organizes funeral games. These games, with prizes for all participants and no deaths over competition, offer a new model for how men's competitiveness could coexist without societal destruction. His act of giving Agamemnon a prize without contest can be read as gracious maturity or a "sick burn".

During a persecution of Christians under the Emperor Decius, these seven Christian youths hid themselves in a cave outside Ephesus. When they were discovered, their persecutors sealed them in the cave to die; but God instead sent them a miraculous, life-preserving sleep. There they rested for about two hundred years. In the time of the Emperor Theodosius the Younger (408-450), a heresy that denied the bodily Resurrection of the dead began to trouble the people. The Emperor prayed God to reveal the truth to the people. At this time, some shepherds removed the stones blocking the cave in order to build a sheep-pen. They discovered the seven youths, who awoke in full health and told their miraculous story. The miracle was told throughout the empire, and the Emperor himself came to Ephesus and spoke with the youths. A week later, they again fell asleep, this time in death.

Send us a textWe often struggle to discern God's purpose for our lives, waiting for perfect clarity or dramatic signs while overlooking the opportunities right before us. This powerful conversation unveils a profound biblical pattern - God consistently choosing the younger, not the firstborn, for His most significant purposes.From Abel to Seth, Moses to David, Scripture reveals how God elevates the humble and overlooked rather than those who appear qualified by worldly standards. The discussion delves deep into contrasting Saul (physically impressive but spiritually lacking) with David (unremarkable in appearance but "a man after God's own heart"), illuminating what truly matters in God's kingdom.When Israel demanded a king "like other nations," they were essentially rejecting God's sovereignty. Yet even through their rebellion, God worked His redemptive plan. Similarly, Seth's birth after Abel's death demonstrated God's faithfulness to continue His plan despite human sin, leading to a spiritual awakening where "people began to call upon the name of the Lord."Perhaps most compelling is the examination of Moses - drawn from water as a baby, later described as "the meekest man on earth," yet chosen to stand in the gap between God and His people. His story reminds us that our greatest qualifications in God's eyes may be our willingness to say, "Lord, here I am. Use me."Are you waiting for perfect clarity about your purpose while ignoring opportunities God has already placed before you? The divine pattern is clear - make yourself available, seize the opportunities, and trust that God works powerfully through those the world might overlook.Support the show

Send us a textFrom the shadows of Genesis to the bright light of the Gospels, Christ's presence permeates every page of Scripture. In this profound theological exploration, we uncover the divine tapestry of salvation woven throughout biblical history.The discussion begins with a stunning revelation about Abraham and Isaac that many miss - Isaac wasn't a child during the famous binding narrative, but likely in his thirties, the same age as Christ during His crucifixion. This parallel deepens when we recognize Isaac willingly submitted to his father's will and carried his own wood up the mountain, just as Jesus would centuries later. These connections aren't coincidental but intentionally designed typologies pointing to God's redemptive plan.We then trace God's pattern of choosing younger sons throughout the biblical narrative - Abel over Cain, Seth as Adam's replacement, Abraham, Moses, Jacob, and David - all youngest sons chosen by divine election. This culminates with Paul's challenging words in Romans: "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated," forcing us to confront the true nature of salvation. The discussion pivots to a profound perspective shift: rather than questioning why God doesn't save everyone, we should marvel that He saves anyone at all.The conversation reaches its zenith examining Jesus Himself - uniquely the firstborn among His siblings yet embodying God's complete salvation plan. His very name, Yeshua ("the Lord saves"), serves as His mission statement in Matthew 1:21: "He shall save His people from their sins." Not might, not try, but shall - removing all contingency from our salvation.If you've ever wondered how the Bible fits together as one unified story, this episode provides the theological framework to see Christ on every page. Join us for this rich exploration that will deepen your appreciation of Scripture and strengthen your confidence in God's sovereign plan established before the foundation of the world.Support the show

Send us a textHave you ever wondered what made Abraham's faith so revolutionary? It wasn't just his willingness to follow God to an unknown land—it was his radical belief that God could bring life from death.Resurrection isn't just a New Testament concept. It's the golden thread woven through every major biblical narrative from Genesis onward. When Sarah's womb was "a tomb," Abraham believed God could bring forth life. When Moses led Israel through the Red Sea, he was demonstrating the same pattern of death-to-life transformation that baptism symbolizes for believers today.This episode takes us on a fascinating journey through scripture, revealing how figures like Abraham, Moses, and Job all held resurrection faith at the core of their relationship with God. We explore Job's astonishing declaration, "I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth... yet in my flesh I shall see God," showing that even the oldest book in scripture proclaims resurrection hope.But this isn't just academic theology. Understanding resurrection as the central theme of scripture transforms how we read the Bible and how we live our faith. Without the resurrection of Jesus—accomplished through the unified work of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—there is no salvation, no Christianity, and no Christ.Whether you're a seasoned biblical scholar or just beginning your faith journey, this conversation will give you new eyes to see the resurrection thread running through scripture. Take this challenge: read even those "boring" parts of the Bible with resurrection in mind, and watch how God's Word comes alive in new and powerful ways.Support the show

Send us a textHave you ever noticed how often God chooses the unexpected person for His greatest purposes? This eye-opening episode explores a fascinating pattern hidden in plain sight throughout Scripture: God consistently selected the youngest sons—not the culturally-favored firstborn—to fulfill His divine plans.We journey through the lives of Abel, Seth, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and David, revealing how each was the youngest among their siblings yet chosen for extraordinary purposes. This deliberate divine pattern challenges everything we think we know about privilege, calling, and God's methods of working in our world.The discussion dives deep into the theological implications of this pattern. Why would God consistently work contrary to the established traditions of firstborn inheritance and honor? What does Romans 9 teach us about "the purpose of God according to election"? And how does this pattern ultimately point to Christ as the "last Adam" who brings redemption?Perhaps most powerfully, this episode confronts our modern sense of entitlement regarding salvation. Many believers today speak of their relationship with God as though they earned it through their free will or good choices. Yet these biblical youngest sons approached their calling with profound humility, recognizing their position came not through birthright or personal merit but through God's gracious election.Ready to rethink how God works? Listen now to discover why availability trumps ability in God's kingdom, and why He consistently chooses the unlikely to accomplish the extraordinary. As one participant wisely observes: "God isn't looking for talent; He's looking for availability."Support the show

On today's Friday edition, we chat with John Allan!Southern California native, multi-instrumentalist and indie rock, alt-pop artist John Allan releases his Centricity Music debut single, “Living God,” which is available now at streaming and digital outlets everywhere!  From the very first synth-laced chord progression, the song sonically recalls The Killers and is lyrically meant to incite awe and praise.Written with Benji Cowart and Kyle Williams, who also produced the track, Allan says, “My prayer is that people put on ‘Living God' and are not afraid to believe again. Maybe even someone who's jaded, who's mad at the church, who had this wonder when they were young. I pray they listen to this song and are able to find that wonder again and to know there is a God who created imagination; and He's planted that in the souls of His children. I hope it shakes cars and makes darkness runInspired by the sounds of artists like The Killers, The National, Gang of Youths, Bon Iver and Novo Amor, Allan's music is a creative feast for the senses that fuses both his sonic influences and his genuine love for Jesus. With original tracks that reflect his church-centric upbringing and love of leading worship at his local SoCal church, Allan shares, “God — He's the fine artist. He is the giver of gifts, but He really is the gift. No matter what I do, it's secondary to Him. “I almost look at it like God is the big steak on the plate, and music is the fork and the knife; and I have the honor of cutting it and getting to feed it to people,” adds Allan. “Like, ‘Hey, look right here. Look how good He is.' I create for the Creator, praying my music bridges the gap so people can experience Him.”@j.o.h.n.a.l.l.a.nchristianmusicguys.com@christianmusicguys

We dive into discussions about 'woke' culture, the ongoing culture wars, and the significant roles the youth and family values play in today's society. Hannah shares her incredible journey from motocross racing to being an influential voice in politics, discussing her family's involvement, the impact of faith, and the controversies surrounding gender ideology and political activism. James contributes his experiences with stock car racing and the importance of strong male figures.
