John and Sarah discuss a great week for Irish politicians, as a new war in the Middle East stopped them from having to do any Irish politics. Also: Fuel taxes, Burkes in Jail, Stephen Kerr arrested, and a quiet start for Catherine Connolly:
Laura and Nick sit down this week to discuss the UK by-election, and the growing radicalism of the UK and Irish Greens. Also: Another deep dive by Nick into the companies making bank on IPAS accomodation; Laura stands up for old Trees; and housing policy gets more confused.
Jason and special guest Maria Maynes discuss the spiralling situation in the Middle East, the sectarian trend in UK politics and the shocking abortion story receiving no coverage from the Irish media.
This week John and Sarah ask: When do the state apologies for historic abuse end? Why is Ireland welcoming NATO into Irish waters? Has Aontú had a bad week? Should we all be Petro-Masculinists? And is Fionnán Sheahan a monster for wearing ashes on his forehead?
Laura and Nick are reunited this week, in a podcast that asks: Are human rights laws breaking society? They discuss the impact on immigration, parenting, family, and gender. And Laura asks: Is it time to invest in big cat?
1Should we want our young boys to be gay so they don't harm women? The Irish Times says yes, Sarah says no. Also in the podcast this week: Macron's fertility drive, Culleton's PR disaster, Ireland's tax crisis, and Mary Lou's White House snub:
With Laura on a deserved break, NICK DELEHANTY is joined this week by Independent Councillor Michael Fleming. They discuss housing, why small business gets a raw deal, the challenges for independent candidates, and why the Irish right struggles to unite:
The security concerns surrounding the Ireland/Israel Nations League fixture, Minister Helen McEntee's Defence Forces diversity drive and LENT are all up for discussion on this week's episode of the Long Game podcast.
John and Sarah dive into the Seamus Culleton case and if Ireland looks hypocritical on immigration; discuss the Dublin Central by-election; the media's warped coverage of a Canadian school shooting; and whether Nigel Farage is right on working from home.
With Nick away this week, Laura is joined by Frank Havilland of The New Conservative. They discuss the Epstein upheaval in the UK, the fall of Mandelson, the rise of Reform, how immigration remains the elephant in the room, and whether noisy kids in public are a problem:
On this week's episode of The Long Game, Ben and Jason analyse some of Ben's recent encounters with Government ministers and their disappointing (non-) answers.
John and Sarah delve into the big stories of the week, including: A big win for Enoch Burke? Are conspiracists vindicated over Epstein? Is "stolen land" real? And should politicians go to jail for telling lies?
Ben and Jason bemoan the weather and the Government response to it, before turning to problems of entirely human origin: the State's funding of, apparently, everything, the Deposit Return Scheme's disastrous effect on Dublin and the omnipresence of gambling.
Laura Perrins and Nick Delehanty reflect on the sudden shift in global affairs at Davos. Meanwhile Nick outlines the Government's army of special advisers, and Laura reflects on recent twitter controversy.
This week, Ben and Jason discuss Helen McEntee’s great love of Europe, a Fianna Fáil TD’s suggestion that the State should steer clear of "anti-Government" CEOs for State contracts, and the political leanings of modern movies.
Laura Perrins and Nick Delehanty dive headlong this week into Ireland's "vulture fund culture" in the housing market, how it affects you, and how it distorts our politics. Also: Irish media as PR machine; and is social media radicalising the youth...for the better?
On this week's episode of The Long Game podcast, Ben and Jason discuss the tech illiteracy of the people regulating the Irish digital space, Trump's impending seizure of Greenland and the growing threat of a US-EU trade war, and the re-arrest of Enoch Burke.
Laura Perrins and her new regular co-host NICK DELEHANTY kick off their 2026 partnership in a week brimming with news: Mary McAleese hates baptism; Irish politicians hate accountability; The money might be running out; and AI might be taking over.
Jason and Ben discuss the week’s top news, from Sinn Fein failing to learn lessons, Grok being bold to the impending end of the 25 year-long Mercosur saga.
John and Sarah turn their attention wholly to the state of Ireland this week: Flooding, Housebuilding, Scrambler Bikes, Opinion polls, and Saint Brigid the Patron Goddess of Purple Haired Feminism.

He has got to be one of the most annoying interviewee. talking over people and zero self awareness
excellent as always
The RIC were an armed colonial police.
fantastic guys... great discussion..
Guys, you need more energy.
What a lot of shit!
Contrary to what you said. The boats do broadcast to NGO boats and navies to pick them up.
38. Lads they are not gaining power and doing nothing with it. They are radically changing social policy and our demographics along with it.
Astounding podcast 're migration. Ye appear to be adopting the open borders talking points. 20% of the population being non national is more than an abstract talking point.
34 - It's about time you got around to migration. It's the most important issue on the Right and the most significant issue for our country into the future.
26 - I wrote to Charlie Flanagan who replied that we would take Bibi if she asked. Is there any way she could get word of this to her?
24 - Wise words. The open borders fanatics caused, and continue to cause, more deaths than any other policy. Australia shows the way forward 're boat migration. EU gradually coming around to that logical policy.
Interview 10 - A thought provoking interview. I'll be reading his book.
Interview 3. Twitter should be taken seriously. If journalists/politicians and NGOs do. Conservatives/liberals should too.
10- re direct provision. It is unfortunately necessary. Those in DP for a long time are there because their claims were rejected and they are allowed to submit endless appeals at taxpayer expense. The solution. Deport illegal immigrants sooner.
09 - The fawning over monarchy, in particular the British one, in Irish Conservative circles, is so irritating.
07 - Australia shows the way re boat migrants. Migration to Australia by boat has stopped. Even Labour in Australia now accept the policy and that it works.
I feel I must defend Gaelscoils. In Wexford where I live it's just the same mix of social classes as at all the other schools. Indeed there's a constant refrain from elites now to vilify them. It's probably more "white" but that's hardly surprising given they promote Gaelic culture.
Is "Community Care"/ primary health care centres not just a return to local small hospitals that were all shut down?
