Irishman In America Podcast With Marion McKeone

Did The DNC Hope Fest Deliver?

The bells, the whistles, the fanfare, the flags and an awful lot less celebrities made this year's DNC a sight to behold. Marion McKeone jetted in straight from Electric Picnic. I caught up with her just before Kamala Harris made the most important speech of her life. Did this convention pack the punch it needed to? Or did we get the Instagram version of events? Who were the biggest winners and losers? And how many small willy jokes does it take to piss off Donald Trump.

Biden Refuses To Bow Out - Is the Damage Already Done?

The Guilty Verdict Heard Around The World (And What This Really Means)

Donald Trump has indeed been found guilty of all 34 counts of falsifying business records in a criminal hush-money scheme to influence the outcome of the 2016 election. Were you surprised? Marion McKeone explains the implications of the verdict to me. We examine how we got to this day, how it might impact swing voters, will Eric Trump ever get a hug, how likely are we to see this thing overturned or DJT on the side of a freeway picking up cans with a stick. In a week when pressure mounted on beleaguered President Biden to change his approach with Israel, isn't all this just a distraction from what is really important in the world right now?
