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.

In this episode, Niall takes on one of the most urgent and unsettling issues of our time: political violence and the future of free speech. The shocking shooting of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University has reignited debate about whether violent confrontation is becoming a grim fixture of American political life.

In this episode, Niall shares an email from a listener who discovered private Facebook messages between her husband and his teenage ex-girlfriend. When she confronted him, he insisted they were “just catching up,” but tensions exploded when she asked him to stop. Now, after 10 years of marriage and two young children together, the couple haven’t spoken in days.

This week, Niall sits down with social commentator Paul Tryvaud to tackle the surge in energy prices that could leave families and older people shivering in cold, dark homes this winter.

In this episode, Niall sits down with journalist Laura Perrins to discuss her provocative piece on the so-called “Tradwife” trend, the Irish Department of Education’s take on it, and what it really means for mothers today. Together, they explore whether the traditional role of the stay-at-home mother was empowering in its own right or an unfair expectation placed upon women in times gone by.

In this episode, Niall takes calls from listeners after yesterday’s London Underground strike that brought the capital to a standstill and cost the economy billions. Tube workers walked out over disputes on pay, pensions, and proposed job cuts, leaving millions of commuters stranded.

In this episode, host Niall sat down with listeners to unpack Europe’s move toward the EU Digital Identity Wallet, a scheme due to be in place by the end of 2026. Designed to let citizens, residents, and businesses securely prove who they are and access services across borders, the wallet sparked plenty of debate.
