Temporada 3, episódio 4

Episode 04: A Hostile Witness

Just a few months after the horrific events of December 1971, Martin Conmey and Dick Donnelly were charged Una Lynskey's murder. Martin had made a false confession to gardaí at Trim Garda Station, however Dick refused to sign anything despite claiming he came under similar pressure. They each hoped that the truth would emerge before the judge and jury at the Central Criminal Court in the height of the summer of 1972. In this episode, we'll bring you into the courtroom for those 13 days of evidence - could they put their faith in Lady Justice?

Episode 01: Missing

Una Lynskey was 19 years old in October 1971, and she had a job with the Land Commission in Dublin City. On the evening of Tuesday 12th October, she stepped off a bus on the Fairyhouse Road near Ratoath, Co Meath when she hurried up Porterstown Lane towards her family's farm, a walk that would take no more than 15 minutes. She never made it home. A search began within the hour, but there was no sign of her. However, soon there were repeated descriptions of an unusual car on the lane that afternoon, and a number of locals in the area remembered hearing screams not long after Una got off the bus. Who would have taken her? And why?

Episode 03: Another Abduction

Having made false confessions to gardaí, Martin Conmey and Marty Kerrigan hoped the truth about what happened to Una Lynskey would emerge somehow, and this would lift the finger of suspicion. Her body was found before the end of 1971 and the investigation into her disappearance was upgraded to murder, but unfortunately it only added fuel to the fire of rumours already doing the rounds of Porterstown Lane. And very quickly afterwards, an act of misplaced vengeance would soon bring more tragedy to the lane.

Episode 02: The Zodiac

Within an hour of Una's disappearance, the entire neighbourhood around Porterstown Lane was out looking for her. Soon enough, gardaí were on the scene and beginning their investigation, and a Ford car became a focus point. Una's body hadn't been found but the investigating officers were convinced within weeks they'd solved the case. Or had they?

61. The Science of Fungi and the Wood Wide Web

The humble fungi is the focus of this week's podcast, and it really is a lot more complex and brilliant than we might have expected. Luke explores the fascination of the "wood wide web", the beauty and benefits of fungi to life on earth, and why there wouldn't even be life on land, of any kind, if it weren't for fungi.

The Science of Transplanted Wombs

This week, Professor Luke O’Neill dives into one of the most remarkable stories in modern medicine: the birth of Hugo, the first child in the UK to be born from a womb transplanted from a deceased donor. His mother, Grace Bell, born without a womb due to MRKH syndrome, calls her baby son “simply a miracle.” Luke explores the incredible medical journey behind this milestone. The 10-hour womb transplant took place at The Churchill Hospital in Oxford in June 2024, followed by IVF treatment at The Lister Fertility Clinic in London. Consultant gynaecologist Professor Richard Smith, who has researched womb transplantation for over 25 years and was present at Hugo’s birth, was even honoured in Hugo’s full name. Beyond the headline-grabbing story, Luke takes listeners through the broader science of organ transplantation. He explains how immunosuppressant drugs revolutionised transplant success, looks at cutting-edge frontiers like 3D-printed organs and the potential use of animal organs, and considers the ongoing challenge of organ shortages. He also touches on Ireland’s organ waiting list, especially for kidneys, and the recent updates to donor rules.

62. The Science of the Nocebo effect

This week Luke asks if it might all be in our heads? Or a lot of it anyway. While many of us are surely familiar with the idea of the placebo effect, what about the nocebo effect and the incredible power of suggestion on our minds? Luke picks apart the science that tries to understand why real physical conditions can be brought about not by illness, but by the power of suggestion.
