Remembering the Dromcolliher disaster 100 years on

Today, the village of Dromcolliher in west Limerick, along with the Taoiseach, will come together to remember the tragedy which befell their community on the 5th of September 1926.150 villagers gathered to watch a film, but a fire swept through the tiny loft that had been set up as a makeshift screening room. In all, 48 men, women and children lost their lives. Gerry Keyes, Chairperson of the Dromcollgher26 group, formed to commemorate the first civil tragedy of the Irish state, joins Pat to discuss.

Same Irish butter, two prices: What’s going on?

Kerrygold is the premium brand at a premium price, while a cheaper grass‑fed butter has landed in Costco under the Kirkland label. Pat Kenny is joined by Pat O’Toole of the Irish Farmers Journal to unpack how both products trace back to the same co‑op family, and why Irish dairy is now under pressure to sell bigger volumes at different price points.

Postpartum mental health: Where are we failing mothers?

The Lindsay Clancy case has raised very difficult questions about the intersection of motherhood, postpartum mental health, and the criminal justice system. It also raises a question closer to home: how well do we actually recognise and respond to serious mental health problems after women give birth here in Ireland? Because for all the focus on the baby and the birth itself, the postpartum period can present a range of physical and psychological challenges, some of which can be very difficult to see, and even harder to talk about. Joining Pat to do just that is Aolish Gormley, Founder of Árdu, a maternal mental health initiative based in Sligo and leading the Year of Care campaign

Neutrality vs reality: Ireland’s defence gap

Donald Trump’s visit to Ireland next week will put huge pressure on the state’s security and defence apparatus and it’s forcing an uncomfortable question: are we actually ready for modern threats? Pat is joined by Kevin Byrne, retired Lieutenant Colonel of the Air Corps & Patrick Bury, defence expert at the University of Bath and former NATO analyst, to unpack what’s involved: airspace closures, the movement of Air Force One and Marine One, naval protection, and the growing risk from drones and cyber attacks.

El Niño’s ‘Doomsday’ warning: What’s coming?

This week, the World Meteorological Organisation has warned that a potentially exceptional El Niño is firmly established in the Pacific and is expected to strengthen significantly, increasing the risks of extreme heat, flooding, and drought around the world. While El Niño is a natural phenomenon, it is arriving on a much warmer planet, so, what should we expect and does a warming climate mean that naturally occurring weather events like this are becoming increasingly dangerous? Joining Pat to discuss is Peter Thorne, Director of the ICARUS Climate Research Centre at Maynooth University.
