Murder, Mayhem & The State Of Joe Biden’s Union - Irishman In America With Marion McKeone

President Biden looked like a new man this week as he delivered his “State of the Union” address to a chorus of heckles. Instead of getting flustered, he showed a verbal and logical dexterity that few had predicted. In this week’s episode, Sunday Business Post US correspondent and award winning journalist Marion McKeone examines the speech, the reactions and what it means for the 2024 election. Is it game on for Joe? Meanwhile the George Santos distraction tour rolls on with yet more revelations pouring in, including one of sexual harassment that he strongly denies. In the extended version of this episode Marion examines the Alex Murdaugh trial and curious journey of Lebron James from child star to all time basketball great. There’s even a little bit of P22 love thrown in. Hear the whole conversation and support the creation of our show by visiting Patreon.com/irishmanabroad today.
