Episode 3614: Kobe’s Last Stand, Clifford Supreme, BBQ GAA, Live-Laugh-Love
The All-Ireland football final for 2026 is upon us, and all signs are pointing to a Kerry victory. Can Paul Flynn or Dara Ó Cinnéide convince us otherwise – how can Mayo stop the Kerry juggernaut, where are their weak-points, and can a bit of tactical bravery make things difficult for the prohibitive favourites.

This could be Kobe McDonald’s last game for Mayo, and we discuss what a gift to the game he has been this summer, but the final analysis remains pointed in one direction… even if one brave truth-teller (Ken Early) is not so sure.
