In this episode, Niall is joined by Peadar Tóibín from Aontú to discuss predictions for Budget 2026. With a total package of €9.4 billion on the table — including €7.9 billion in extra public spending and €1.5 billion in tax cuts — the Government says it’s shifting away from once-off cost-of-living supports and moving towards more permanent measures. But where should that money really go?
In this episode, Niall talks to Senator Gerard Craughwell to discuss the upcoming presidential election, his views on the race, and what’s at stake for Ireland. Later, Niall is joined by Jason Osbourne from Gript Media for a deep dive into one of today’s most pressing cultural questions: Has the divide between left and right grown wider, and has the internet and social media fueled that divide?
Host Niall talks with former election candidate Elaine Mullay and Finacial Expert Karl Deeter about a developing trend overseas — in the Netherlands there’s a push to introduce laws that would give people a legal right to work remotely (or at least from home), under certain conditions.
In this episode, host Niall sits down with Laura Perrins from Gript Media to discuss a high-profile case currently unfolding in Utah — the suspected murderer, Tyler Robinson, is increasingly likely to face the death penalty. Together, Niall and Laura explore the moral, legal, and practical dimensions of capital punishment.
Host Niall is joined by restaurateur and social commentator Paul Trayvaud as the presidential race begins to take shape. With three candidates already declared and two more hopefuls scrambling for nominations from TDs, Senators, or local councils, the conversation turns to a bigger constitutional question:
In this thought-provoking episode, host Niall sits down with Elanie Mullaly, former election candidate and outspoken social commentator and Laura Perrins from Gript Media to tackle a heated cultural flashpoint: the wave of educators, teachers, and professors in America who are losing their jobs after posting celebratory remarks online about the death of Charlie Kirk.
Niall opens the lines for one of the most heated dilemmas yet: A wife admits to slapping her husband in front of her friends. She says it was “just a tap” in the middle of a row, and that she’s been apologizing ever since. But two and a half weeks later, he’s still hurt and won’t forgive her—reminding her that if the roles were reversed, it would be a very different story.
This week, Niall is joined by Jason Osborne from Gript Media to tackle one of the most morally gut-wrenching questions imaginable.
Last Friday, Niall applauded the actions of Matt Robinson—the father who restrained his own son, Tyler, and handed him over to police after the murder of Charlie Kirk. But not everyone agreed. One X user responded:
In this episode, Niall opens the phone lines to tackle a sensitive and urgent issue: childhood obesity in Ireland. A new UNICEF report shows that one in five Irish children is overweight or obese—twice the global rate—and in DEIS schools, that figure rises to one in four. For the first time in history, childhood obesity has overtaken underweight as the most common form of malnutrition worldwide.
In this episode, Niall tackles a controversial question: Should parents be fined when their children commit crimes?
On this episode, Niall dives into a question that’s dividing opinion: Has Ireland’s public transport gotten so bad that we now need a dedicated police force to patrol it?
In this episode, Niall opens the lines to discuss a hot-button issue: Child Benefit. Currently set at €140 a month per child and paid universally—regardless of income—this payment also increases for twins, triplets, and other multiple births. But should wealthier families earning over €100,000 a year still receive it? Or should that money be redirected to boost payments for low-income families instead?
In this powerful episode, Niall sits down with Aontú leader Peadar Tóibín to discuss the tragic case of nine-year-old Harvey Morrison Sherratt, who died at the end of July after waiting years for a scoliosis operation. Peadar outlines the failures in Ireland’s healthcare system that left Harvey without the care he desperately needed and explains why he is calling for then–Health Minister Simon Harris to resign over the tragedy.
When a distressed parent emails Niall about her 20-year-old daughter joining OnlyFans, the phone lines light up. In the studio, Niall is joined by Samaria — an OnlyFans creator and performer — to unpack the controversy.
In this episode, Niall puts the question to listeners — and to guest Karl Deeter — whether more investment in the Irish language is money well spent. The conversation kicks off with…………..
In this heated and often hilarious episode, Niall opens the phone lines to listeners with one thing in common—they’ve all been clamped. Whether caught overstaying in a private car park or parking illegally on city streets, they share their stories of frustration, fury, and, in some cases, acceptance.
In this thought-provoking episode, Niall speaks with the author of a recent article that questions the direction of Ireland’s education system—and, more broadly, our national identity. The discussion focuses on the updated early years curriculum Aistear
