  • Loud random background music makes it hard to listen to

    Unfortunately the sound is awful in this podcast. Randomly there will be background music which is as loud as the person speaking. It also sounds like elevator music. Genuinely thought it was coming from somewhere else it was so loud and out of place. It makes it hard to listen to.

  • Awful

    Hideous reporting. Gleefully reporting bad news. Take a breath and speak. If the reporter team were in an English oral exam they’d fail. Hideous

  • Rowing Ireland Podcast

    I listen daily to this podcast and love how it is so informative and interesting. I just listened to the Rowing Ireland one and what to sincerely thank you for bringing such wrongdoings to people’s attention. I hope action comes from same. Shame on the organisation. Our hero’s win lose or draw. The Donovan brothers will never be anything but hero’s.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Revisited: The Chicago trucker recruited by the FBI to spy on republicans
Q: How did Rupert manage to infiltrate the Real IRA despite lacking Irish background?
His approach was a blend of psychological persistence, leveraging money and hospitality to build credibility, and exploiting the networks around the Republican groups, which allowed him to be seen as a trusted outsider who genuinely supported the cause.
M9 crash fallout: Tense funerals and the evolution of Ireland’s joyriding scourge
Q: Do you think there is still substantial public interest in these cases and this issue?
Public interest remains high because innocent people are affected, and communities are seeking reassurance that such behavior is curtailed and prevented in the future.
M9 crash fallout: Tense funerals and the evolution of Ireland’s joyriding scourge
Q: And you think that was that deliberately requested by the priest and the church that there not be a eulogy for fear of striking the wrong tone?
There was no explicit explanation given; it may have been a family decision or guidance from the church to keep the tone restrained.
M9 crash fallout: Tense funerals and the evolution of Ireland’s joyriding scourge
Q: Tell us about the mood at that funeral.
The mood was quietly sombre yet orderly, with a large turnout but a sense that the ceremony would proceed without sensationalism, and attendees wore symbolic tributes to the deceased.
‘Person of interest’ in missing poker player case refuses to talk to gardaí
Q: Why is this case so challenging to resolve years later?
There is a lack of concrete evidence, limited access to key witnesses across borders, and a suspect who will not speak to investigators, all of which impede establishing what happened to Jon Jonsson after he disappeared.
