Description

Uncovered is a podcast series by journalist and commentator Emmett Corcoran, delving into some of the most fascinating, controversial, and misunderstood stories in Irish public life.


From political scandals and corporate collapses to forgotten histories and contested truths, each episode goes beyond headlines and spin to ask the hard questions and to hear from the people who were there. With a focus on forensic detail, legal rigour, and narrative clarity, Uncovered takes listeners inside the stories others leave half-told.


Thought-provoking, independent, and unapologetically curious; this is podcasting without varnish.
