The Longest Game

In 1986, a Limerick man called Terry Madigan came up with a plan to raise money for his local GAA club and community that everyone thought was crazy. Terry wanted to create a world record for the longest game of GAA football ever to be played. It would be 60 hours of football - non-stop on a full-sized pitch over a whole weekend. If this was going to work, it would need 14 brave men and the whole parish of Kilcornan to get involved. This is the story of that record attempt - the highs; the lows; the hallucinations - all set against the backdrop of a community of people bonded by the love of their parish and GAA. Narrated by Shauna McGreevy. Produced by Shauna McGreevy and Nicoline Greer (2026) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

30 Acres: 01 - 30 Acres Says No

Four-part mockumentary: Episode 1. December 2009. Colm is an investigative reporter for RTÉ, assigned to the story of an enormous ghost estate called 30 Acres. Only three inhabitants remain on this barren wasteland; Holly, Glenn and Iseult. Holly is an entrepreneur intent on re-launching her salon as an alternative tourist venture - the world’s first ghost estate tour. Glenn loves the freedom of life on the vacant estate, hunting otters in the moonlight. Iseult has finally found the seclusion she craves. But the developer of this unfinished housing project, Sean Granite, is bankrupt. A government-appointed liquidator, Alistair Crowe, is on the scene, with dastardly plans to evict Holly, Glenn and Iseult. It seems like their days on the 30 Acres estate are numbered. Or are they? Cast Barbara Bergin, (Iseult) Shane Casey (Glenn) John Colleary (Sean) Philippa Dunne (Pat) Barry Murphy (Alistair) Stefanie Preissner (Holly) Colm Tobin (Colm) Aidan O'Donovan (TV Presenter/Priest) Produced by Kevin Brew for Drama On One with Kevin Reynolds and Gorretti Slavin.

Angry Galway prevail in best inter-county All-Ireland final of 2025

Jacqui Hurley and Rory O'Neill are joined by Ursula Jacob and Elaine Aylward to look back on Galway's thrilling All-Ireland Senior Camogie final triumph over three-in-a-row chasing Cork. The Tribeswomen brought a physicality and ferocity to their game which Cork struggled to get to grips with during the early stages of the most gripping All-Ireland final of the season. Ursula and Elaine agree that Cathal Murray was right to use 'disrespect' to fuel his charges, given they have now won three of the last seven All-Irelands before Sunday. As regards Cork's complaints over the refereeing decisions, our pundits agree that Justin Heffernan got the big decisions right and both teams could point to calls that went against them over the 60 minutes. Finally, Jacqui asks Ursula to reflect on her own Wexford side's achievements, as they remian the last team to achieve three All-Irelands in a row.
