Confirmed alright:
I has a big happy.
If it's back on Achill again with his parents I would be thrilled.
I only started listening to FW last year and think its a great companion piece to SC. I've always wondered what was the deal with Lars' accent. He sounds VERY Irish...now we know.
Caitlin won't be happy with these recent developments.
I'd prefer if they just covered weekend sport (apart from latest English soccer pantomime) before Tuesday myself.
Really enjoyed the Roberto Lopes interview, hopefully he'll be on again if they get to the knock outs.
Isolation podcast was enjoyable too. Was getting a bit bored of the Premier league football talk so good to have a bit of variety
What was the point of the lengthy segment on John Terry's twitter? Felt like it lasted half an hour...
I thought it was funny. Basically, JT is still a knobend
Is the Isolating pod on a different feed now? No sign of Tuesdays edition.
3 days a week for now.
Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
This is the exact type of stuff I love the pod for. No idea what he's gonna come up with on a consistent basis!
Outstanding interview about the Ahmaud Arbery murder.
The second captains guys really are incredible at their craft. A side splitting funny depiction of John Terry's twitter activity yesterday and hard hitting social commentary today. €5 well spent every month
Was just about to post this. Brilliant interview, need to read his article too.
Murph's summary of Djokovic was very well done too.
Yeah, it was a great interview. Very upsetting listening to his mam speak.
Just listening to yesterday's pod now and the news from Tullamore is ringing true here too. Coincidence of timing I know...
Don't agree with the lads take today about the tragic killing of Aisling Murphy...
I think too many people are rushing to create a Sarah Everhard style "men are bad" narrative.
I think media attention would be best diverted towards our light touch judicial system and poor mental health services.
People like this man should not be on the loose.
agree. The main problem is how flimsy the justice system is.
Is it The justice system or The prison system?
its hard for judges to sentence people to harsh sentences or remand people on bail If the prisons are overstretched.
Oh justice for sure. There are laughable sentences doled out all year round.
if harsher sentences were issues would that just mean people get released earlier because a finite level of prison space exists?
I don't know chief. It's not really my concern. If they need to build more prisons then build more prisons.
the judges dont have power over that…so you may be apportioning blame to The wrong cohort of The system. Or maybe you are dead right. But its possible its more complex issue.
but worth remembering irish governments dont like spending money on stuff that raise zero income….like prisons.
It's a horrible case, but the media overload on it has been OTT.
They dedicated 2/3rds of the News to it this evening, with people reporting live from the scene, followed by more coverage afterwards and wall to wall coverage elsewhere.
A truly horrible, tragic case, but I thought the level of coverage given to it was verging on the ridiculous.
The original suspect seems to be innocent going by The latest.
Unsurprising really given the obsession with true crime podcasts/documentaries etc that has developed over recent times. Media are well aware of this.
how many times have we heard of incidents where the attacker had 15/20/50/100 previous convictions. The state is must liable if one of these individuals commits a murder.
Not sure i got the same vibe as you from it. Less men are bad more lots of women have been affected by these behaviours.
Strongly disagree. Ireland is generally a safe country and a good place to live. Stuff like this is big news.
I do think the fact that some media were delighted to get exclusives with the family is horrible. We should be able to have coverage without being so intrusive.
I think the lads covered it well the other day.
On The second captains weekly summary pod for non subbers the vibe/words from Ciaran was men have to wrestle with this and men have to be aware of what they put out in The world. The inference around all men sharing responsibility being fairly clear there no?
not sure If that differs from The comtent on The sub.
We need to convert ghost estates into prisons immediately. It would solve a lot of problems.
