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.

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?   Come over to www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad to hear the rest of the episode including bizarre world of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito & there’s big news on our first ever LIVE episode!   Email the show irishmanabroadpodcast@gmail.com
Sitting down for prolonged periods is bad for everyone especially runners. For a lot of us it is unavoidable and likely to cause an injury like the one Jarlath suffered before the London Marathon.

These simple techniques could help you improve your form, avoid injury and get strong fast. Vinny Mulvey goes a bit deeper over on Patreon in the extended cut of the podcast.
