Can Donald produce the cash to pay his bond on Monday? Is the bond amount too high? Marion has a surprising take on this one. How are we still talking about Donald Trump when Texas and other border states are allowing people to die during their attempted crossings? SB4 threatens to make this appalling situation far worse. Can it be stopped? The 5th Circuit has allowed it. Now it’s the Supreme Court’s chance to stand up but don’t count on that. Is the Supreme Court the most dangerous force in America? Is their goal to retain a white America? Surely that’s already impossible? Over in the extended episode we hear who might be Trump’s blind date running mate. He is turning this into a game show. Marion reflects on Leo Veradkar’s Washington visit and why politicians tend to resign. What kind of resignation was this? The Oscars and the future of fun

  • Biden's Gaza Shame & Can Someone Else Pay Trump's Tab? - Irishman In America With Marion McKeone

    23/02/2024 Duração: 36min

    Unflappable. That’s one word to describe Donald Trump. In the face of being ordered to pay almost a half a billion dollars by the courts he seems unperturbed. Why? Does Marion know something we don’t know about how he plans to pay this money back? As she explains, there is no wriggling out of this one. Meanwhile rubble is being bombed  in Gaza and the last remaining people fleeing the conflict pray for an end has Biden forgotten how powerful he is or wussed out? A piece in the Guardian this week has sparked a conversation around the perplexing actions of the President and how weak and heartless it is starting to make him and his foreign policy advisors look. In the final part of our episode Marion examines Liz Truss’ performance at CPAC and the company she now keeps, Nikki Hayley’s attempts to cobble together some funds to keep going, Tucker’s Russian fever dream and more.

You can match your training plan to their's and take the journey Cobh too. This is a one of a kind episode with something for everyone in it.

For the London Marathon 2024 I'm running for Kidney Care UK and I'm using low heart rate training to build the aerobic base that failed me in Dublin last October. So far it has been a revelatory experience. At first, mind numbingly boring, then agonising, then joyous - the process of learning to run properly slow on my easy days has not been easy. V

    22/11/2023 Duração: 31min

    If a run happens in the woods and there’s no watch there to record it and post it to Strava, did a run ever happen at all? Is the measuring of running ruining running? Sonia O’Sullivan and comedian Jarlath Regan ask whether the focus on data and super advanced technology is sucking the joy out of running?
