    Ep 3476: Ireland v Israel, Baden-Baden 20 Years On - 16/02/2026

    16/2/2026 | 55 mins.
    Last week, while the rest of the team worked desperately to cover a series of world-shattering football stories, Ken was peacefully wintering at Baden-Baden. He returns with news of the Upper Rhine, where people are, as ever, keeping themselves to themselves.

    Today we talk more about the implications of Ireland’s Nations League draw against Israel. The matches currently look likely to go ahead as scheduled in late September and early October. But should they go ahead? And can such a decision be made without putting the question to another General Assembly vote?

    We also talk Troy Parrott, Harry Kane, and Keith Andrews finally getting the credit he deserves.

    Ep 3475: Ireland Survive, 10 Debate Turns Ugly, McCloskey Magic, England Think Again - 16/02/26

    16/2/2026 | 1h 7 mins.
    Ireland have their first win of the Six Nations, but form and confidence are still eluding Andy Farrell's team. as the out-half debate rages on and the scrum continues to struggle.

    Shane Horgan and author and journalist Brendan Fanning pick through the issues at 10, the quality of Ireland's tries, and the Lynagh disallowed score.

    The BBC’s Tom English joins us to talk about Scotland’s astonishing win over England in Murrayfield and if it was all down to the coaching, or the 6 Nations Rugby Gods. We also discuss the racist abuse suffered online by Edwin Edogbo.

    Elsewhere there was Murph’s trip to Tralee, the benefits of preparation when dealing with adverse weather conditions, and an eventful post-mortem at a 40th birthday party he wasn’t invited to.

    Ep 3470: Bad Bunny's America, Seahawks Destroy Patriots, Melee By The Lee, Hurling Manliness - 09/02/26

    09/2/2026 | 32 mins.
    The Seattle Seahawks were heavy favourites to win Super Bowl 60 last night, and that's exactly what they did - absolutely dominating the New England Patriots and their young quarter-back Drake Maye.

    Brian Murphy has his chest out and his shoulders back after his beloved home city of San Francisco did a bang-up job of hosting the week-long party, and he joins us for his post-game thoughts.

    Cork are three from three in the National Hurling League, so why is Ben O'Connor so upset about things? And are his words going to help his team win the All Ireland?

    And we salute Bad Bunny, who delivered the goods in the half-time show.
