We're in the process of moving back to Oz and have spent the beginning of the year with family. Have been a little burnt out, so making the most of the time to recuperate.

Will be stuck back into episodes by the end of the month though. Cannot wait!

The last in our three part series on #Bl00dySunday. There have been a lot of great docos about the day in the last few weeks, but I hope this mini series has help with a unique perspective on the day! In this episode we look at the evening of the day and the events in Dublin Castle. As well that, we take a bit of a broader look and examine whether it was all worth it. https://link.chtbl.com/bloodysundaypt2 #thehistoryofireland #bloodysunday #irishhistory

As promised here's the 2nd in my 3 part series on #bl00dysunday. This episode focuses on the events that occurred in Croke Park in afternoon. Tomorrow, we'll explore both the evening and repercussions of the day. https://link.chtbl.com/SgO2v9ug #bloodysunday #thehistoryofireland

This weekend marks the 100th anniversary of Bloody Sunday. With that in mind, I've done something a little different and have three episodes to share with you this week. Focusing on the morning, the afternoon, and evening of the Sunday the 21st 1920. There are a lot of great Bloody Sunday documentaries and write ups going around at the moment, but hopefully you'll find this three parter an interesting deep dive into the day. https://link.chtbl.com/bloodysundaypt1 #thehistoryofireland #bloodysunday #irishhistory

Latest episode went up over the weekend! This one all about how the railwaymen joined the fight against the British. There's also hopefully been a little bit of an improvement in audio quality, so see what you think! https://link.chtbl.com/TheMunitionsStrike

Ever heard of General Brigadier Cuthbert Lucas? If not you're in for a treat. The latest episode tells of his capture by the IRA in 1920 and it's just one of those stories you couldn't make up. https://link.chtbl.com/thekidnappedgeneral
