The Headless Men

What happens if you speak out against the tribe in Unionism? Is there only free speech for Catholics in Northern Ireland? Joe and Dion argue about commemorations and discuss the Irish language and the secret meeting Joe attended with concerned Protestants. Also do people in the south need to do more to make unionists welcome?

"I’m Joe Biden and I’m Irish"

We've been told off-record that Joe Biden might be Irish.

Obviously, unattributable. So keep it under your hat.

He's the latest in a long line of US Presidents who feels the pull of the Emerald Isle very strongly and traces his ancestry back there by 180 years. But he begins the day in Belfast - reflecting on the Good Friday peace accord 25 years ago.

But can he get power-sharing back on track? Or is he too scared to even mention it?

And we look at the delights and dangers of a world exclusive interview.

Who has the power when Elon Musk is in the seat?

Backseat Skiver

As Boris Johnson drags us back to 2018 with his NI protocol meddling we discuss the latest Brexit wranglings (yes, again…). Plus, a year on from Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, we reflect on the conflict and how it has reshaped politics. And in the extra bit, in full for Patreons, we talk about the bizarre feeling of someone you disagree with making a smart point… “If you’re applying a purity test – someone can always be purer.” – Seth Thévoz “Sunak would be in a tricky position if he’s relying on Labour on a vote of this magnitude.” – Ian Dunt “Keeping the Conservative base today will be the test for the rest of Sunak’s time as Prime Minister.” – Seth Thévoz www.patreon.com/ohgodwhatnow Written and presented by Alex Andreou with Naomi Smith, Ian Dunt and Seth Thevoz. Producer: Alex Rees. Assistant producer: Kasia Tomasiewicz. Theme music by Cornershop. Lead Producer: Jacob Jarvis. Group Editor: Andrew Harrison. OH GOD, WHAT NOW? is a Podmasters production.
