If music be the food of absurdity US politics says play on. A Trump AI rap hit, a down home boy’s misunderstood anthem riles up the people that made it a chart topper and Eminem is forced to step in. Marion McKeone of the Sunday Business Post sits down with comedian Jarlath Regan to sift through the latest news from America. This week there is a distinct musical theme. As always there’s even more for our members. A further 30minutes of the now very real prospect of a Biden impeachment investigation.
Jarlath is going out on tour. He will be doing his latest standup show “Yer Man” across the autumn and winter. Why not grab a ticket while you can. All the dates are selling out! https://linktr.ee/IrishmanAbroad

Nobody feels like running every day. Everyone goes through periods where running is a chore and not a joy to behold. Whether you’re deep in a funk right now or have suffered through one in the past, you will want to hold on to this episode and Sonia O’Sullivan’s advice on how to work through it. Together with Jarlath Regan she breaks down the best way to get the mojo back in your mind and body. Fresh from the world championships in Budapest Sonia reflects on how the events played out and how after a big win it’s normal to feel a bit low. There’s all the usual segments including tip of the week, round the parishes and a deeper dive into Jarlath’s training for the Dublin Marathon over on Patreon.com/irishmanabroad.

Whether you like it or not, Donald Trump became the first US President with a mugshot. For supporters this will change nothing other than save them time photoshopping the fake versions they emblazoned on coffee cups, shirts and hats. For his opponents it is sweet vindication. Marion McKeone looks back on this week’s first GOP primary debate. With the troublesome child out of the room, she surveys the highlights and low lights from the night of many contradictions. Later in the show, on Patreon, she examines the Tucker Carlson interview in all its monotonous glory and her own near death experience while meeting the "real" Americans in Florida. Head to Patreon (www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad) to hear the full back catalogue of episodes and interviews from the last 10 years.

The biggest RICO indictment since Harvey Dent versus The Falconi crime family dropped this week and my co-conspirator Marion McKeone is back from the Iowa State Fair to make sense of it. In today's big weekly round up she looks at what is contained in the 98 page indictment. Who are the 18 people indicted alongside the big Orange Fella? What exactly are they accused of? Will they flip for a plea deal and sing like canaries?
Mr. RICO himself, Rudi "Just For Men" Giuliani is among the accused but Roger Stone is not. This week a video emerged of Stone hatching the plan to overturn the election before the result had even been announced. Does this mean Stone is co-operating? Does this make this indictment more a slam dunk than the "confidential documents in the jacks" indictment?
We get Marion's view of the tragedy in Hawaii. The death toll is set to rise far higher than 111, families are still searching for missing relatives and yet, tourists are still arriving because "we have reservations". Marion explores the tense relationship between locals and tourists. Has Joe Biden dropped teh ball or will the billionaire land owners like Oprah swoop in to help?
Jarlath is going out on tour. He will be doing his latest standup show “Yer Man” across the autumn and winter. Why not grab a ticket while you can. All the dates are selling out! https://linktr.ee/IrishmanAbroad

If you’re a seasoned a marathoner or a complete rookie you’ll need to hear every minute of her insights on recovery and repair after the all important long run. Jarlath is preparing for the Dublin City Marathon in October. Why not join him. The Irishman Running Abroad Strava Club is 2000 members strong and growing.

Marion McKeone defends the honour of the LA’s drug free shark population after rumours surface of rampant drug use among sea life in Florida. It can only mean one thing, it’s time for another episode of Irishman In America, Ireland’s number one political news podcast with comedian Jarlath Regan. This week Jar and Marion examine curious modesty of Joe Biden and his administration, the cost of living crisis and Donald Trump’s attempt to corrupt the jury pool in Georgia. Why is there no law to stop the slander of Fani Willis? What is behind the actor’s strike? 100 days in and neither side seems willing to budge. There’s even more over on Patreon for our members including why the FBI shot a man in Utah who sent threatening messages to the President and why the wheels are coming off Ron DeSantis’s rickety band wagon. There’s also Marion’s picks of the week and more.

Sonia O'Sullivan dials in from Spain as she helps her daughter Sophie prepare for the World Athletics Championships. The clock is ticking. What can an athlete pro or amateur hope to cram in before their big exam. Is it more about the head game at this point or can we plan a great final ten days before our big races? Sonia looks back on her 1995 gold at the worlds and helps Jarlath with his understanding of training paces. Later in the show top physical therapist and coach Vinny Mulvey joins the show to fill us in on his week in the Alps with the On Running Team.

Marion McKeone chats to Jarlath about the latest legal troubles facing Donald Trump. What does this new indictment mean if anything, why is it all happening at once and how long will it take to see any sort of result from these cases. In second half of the show available on our members page (www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad) you can hear Marion take on what will become of Hunter Biden. Is Joe Biden's troublesome son a reason not to vote in the next election or just a nice piece of juicy click bait? Marion also looks at the United States Embassy in Dublin issuing a security alert for American travellers following a horrific attack on a U.S. visitor and the kidnapping of a US nurse and her child in Haiti.

The GOAT herself joined our listeners in person this week for a run in Phoenix Park. I captured some sounds and asked Sonia why the "run slow to run fast" mantra might not apply to her. We look forward to the World Championships in Budapest and back at an incredible summer of running for Irish athletes including Sophie O'Sullivan.
With the Dublin marathon less than 90 days away I ask Sonia about the most challenging hill on the course. Is it possible to prepare for a "heartbreak hill" or is giving it a name a step in the wrong direction? I take a spin into Vinny Mulvey (Patreon exclusive content visit www.patreon.com/irishmababroad to sign up today) for a chat about marathon training with less than 3 months to go. Is the 10% mileage increase a hard and fast rule or can we jump it a little faster a little sooner. There's also a trip around the Strava parishes and Sonia's tip of the week to enjoy.
Come and see me on tour this autumn. Visit www.jigser.com for all my tour dates.
Or why not come to our next week up run. Find the club on Strava today.
