In the winter of 2020, deep into the misery of the global pandemic, Richy Craven lit up the internet with a tale about working at Christmas in a fancy department store in Dublin. His story went viral and we loved it so much that we asked our friend, the writer and podcaster Darach Ó Séaghdha , to read it for us. Producer Katz Laszlo added some audio magic, and a classic episode of The Europeans was born. As a little early Christmas present, here it is again. A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from The Europeans! If you enjoyed this story, please consider donating to Barnados .

Derek talks to Darach about the Motherfoclóír podcast, the continued rise in popularity of the Irish language, his two books, his father and his daughter's roles in his writing, the intricacies of the language, Flann O'Brien and 'Point Break'!
In the first story, the Lioness is impressed by the Ostrich's roar. When the lion cubs find out that the Ostrich has no teeth, they goad their mom into fighting Ostrich. That's a bad idea. In the second story, Crocodile is making plans to move his water animals to a new watering hole. To do so, he must make a treaty with Lion and also avoid the Boer's guns. Is Crocodile to be trusted?

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall. * Inniu an 17ú lá déag de mhí Iúil, 2021. Is mise Ella Hassett. Tar éis ceithre bliana agus beagnach céad is ochtó eagrán, críochnóidh an podchraoladh cáiliúil Motherfoclóir ag deireadh an tsamhraidh seo. Fógraíodh an nuacht ar Twitter oíche Dé Luain an tseachtain seo. Dúirt bunaitheoir an phodchraolta Darach Ó Séaghdha go bhfuil an grúpa fós ina gcairde ach go mbeadh siad ag obair ar thionscnaimh nua as seo amach. Go bunúsach, is é téama an phodchraolta focail, focail Ghaelacha agus focail ón Éirinn, ach pléitear réimse an-leathan ábhar ann le hiomad aíonna éagsúla ón Éirinn agus thar lear. Cé go bhfuil an podcraoladh i mBéarla amháin, tá baint aige le hathbheochan na Gaeilge atá ar siúl le blianta beaga anuas. Tá Coiste Téarmaíochta Fhoras na Gaeilge díreach tar éis focal nua a ghlacadh don fhoclóir oifigiúil ar tearma.ie – duine de dhath. Mhol Ola Majekodumni as Baile Átha Cliath an focal nua seo. Is craoltóir, iriseoir, scríobhneoir agus ball de chumann Fhoras na Gaeilge í. Dúirt sí go bhfuil an focal ‘duine de dhath’ níos oiriúnaí sa tsochaí il-eitneach atá in Éirinn faoi láthair ná na focail ‘duine gorm’ nó ‘duine dubh’ a úsáideadh go dtí seo. Dúirt Donncha Ó Cróinín, an príomhthéarmeolaí le Foras na Gaeilge, go bhfuil áthas orthu an focal nua sin a ghlacadh mar léiríonn sé éabhlóid na gcoincheap. Ar an Domhnach seo caite, chuaigh an billiúnaí Richard Branson agus a fhoireann go himeall spáis i roicéad darbh ainm Unity. D’fhág an roicéad an domhan ó New Mexico agus thaistil sé ochtó cúig ciliméadar suas go himeall spáis. D’fhan an roicéad in áit ar feadh cúpla nóiméad agus thóg Branson físeán ina léirigh sé a mhothúcháin. Bhí a fhoireann le feiceáil sa chúlra ar foluain san aer. In 2004, bhunaigh Branson an comhlacht spáis Virgin Galactic chun eitiltí trádálaí go spás a bhunú. Dúirt Branson gurbh eachtra a shaoil í an eitilt ar an Unity. * Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain. Tá an script ar fáil i d'aip phodchraolta. * GLUAIS bunaitheoir - founder athbheochan - revival sochaí il-eitneach - multi-ethnic society éabhlóid na gcoincheap - evolution of concepts comhlacht spáis - space company eitiltí trádálaí - commercial flights
Harps, shamrocks, hands, crowns, swords, mythical female embodiments of Éire: all Irish symbols and all up for discussion in this episode, in which Tim and Naomi are joined by Darach Ó Séaghdha of the Motherfoclóir podcast to discuss Irish flags past, present, and future. We consider the merits and perils of the different symbols as debate begins to stir on whether a new flag might be required if Northern Ireland were to ever unify with the Republic. Tim runs through the history of flags and their association with the nation state, Darach explains why the colours of the Irish flag have special names in the Irish language, and Naomi talks through some international examples of countries that have debated changing their flag.

After almost half a year of negotiations and political maneuvering, Ireland finally has a government. It’s unlike any that has come before it, and it doesn’t include the party that got the post votes in the last election, Sinn Féin. In this livestreamed podcast, Naomi and Tim answer listener questions with special guests Aoife-Grace Moore, political correspondent with The Irish Examiner, and Darach Ó Séaghdha of the Motherfoclóir podcast. Is the new government’s policy programme really the greenest ever? Why are people calling this the end of the Civil War politics? Are the Green party falling into a trap, and will Sinn Féin ultimately benefit? The new coalition is made up of old rivals Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, with the support of the Green party. The new Taoiseach is Micheál Martin, who is supposed to be in office until the end of 2022 when he will step aside to let outgoing Taoiseach Leo Varadkar assume the role.
