An Irishman Abroad

How Do You Swing A State - Irishman In America

Marion asks what will move needle in the minds of American swing voters? The VP Debate definitely didn’t do it. Jack Smith damning 165 page filing on January 6th doesn’t seem to have done it? Could the impact of Israel’s attacks on Iran make the difference? If that impact is at the gas pump you can bet Americans will notice. This week on the podcast we look back at an intense week on the campaign trail. You can find the full episode and weekly episode of this podcast on www.patreon.com/irishmanabraod - let Marion be your guide for the final 30 days of the campaign and beyond.

Irishman In America - 38 Days To Go! (Sample)

This week Donald tries to convince women he is their white knight, New York City has Gotham City's problems, the Harris campaign shuns Al Smith and Marion looks ahead to the VP debate. Even the massive tech issues we had this morning with this episode couldn't stop us getting you the exclusive Patreon weekly instalment of Irishman In America. We even managed to find the time to squeeze in a listener letter from Jack Ryan. With only 38 days until America goes to the polls both campaigns are zeroing in on the undecided voters in the swing states. Harris's attempt to look like a gun owning "get off my lawn" hardliner hit a bum note with Oprah while her latest ad from the Lincoln Project begs voters to get over "the woman thing". We look at what the polls say and whether they have been adjusted to be more reliable than in previous campaigns. Find the full episode on www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad now.

Did The DNC Hope Fest Deliver? - Irishman In America with Marion McKeone

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?
