A sample of this week's Patreon episode. Donald tries to convince women he is their white knight, New York City has Gotham City's problems, the Harris campaign shuns Al Smith and Marion looks ahead to the VP debate. Even the massive tech issues we had this morning with this episode couldn't stop us getting you the exclusive Patreon weekly instalment of Irishman In America. We even managed to find the time to squeeze in a listener letter from Jack Ryan. With only 38 days until America goes to the polls both campaigns are zeroing in on the undecided voters in the swing states. Harris's attempt to look like a gun owning "get off my lawn" hardliner hit a bum note with Oprah while her latest ad from the Lincoln Project begs voters to get over "the woman thing". We look at what the polls say and whether they have been adjusted to be more reliable than in previous campaigns.

The bells, the whistles, the fanfare, the flags and an awful lot less celebrities made this year's DNC a sight to behold. Marion McKeone jetted in straight from Electric Picnic. I caught up with her just before Kamala Harris made the most important speech of her life. Did this convention pack the punch it needed to? Or did we get the Instagram version of events? Who were the biggest winners and losers? And how many small willy jokes does it take to piss off Donald Trump.

When your mental faculties are called into question it’s best to keep embarrassing gaffs to a minimum.

Marion McKeone of the Sunday Business Post takes a look back at the wreckage of the last 14 days since the disastrous debate that set the wheels in motion.

Donald Trump has indeed been found guilty of all 34 counts of falsifying business records in a criminal hush-money scheme to influence the outcome of the 2016 election. Were you surprised? Marion McKeone explains the implications of the verdict to me. We examine how we got to this day, how it might impact swing voters, will Eric Trump ever get a hug, how likely are we to see this thing overturned or DJT on the side of a freeway picking up cans with a stick. In a week when pressure mounted on beleaguered President Biden to change his approach with Israel, isn't all this just a distraction from what is really important in the world right now?

While "The Portal" in Dublin revealed something more than people willing to drop their pants for a cheap laugh, Donald Trump's hush money trial is revealing a lot more than who paid for what. As the former President's blushes show through his orange face paint, Marion McKeone fixes her focus on the treatment of the star witnesses. She examines Biden's weakness on Israel and how his attempts to please everyone have backfired horribly this week.

This week Marion interviewed Nancy Pelosi. She recaps the conversation with comedian Jarlath Regan and together they reflect on the latest news from the campaign trail. Can Donald produce the cash to pay his bond on Monday? Is the bond amount too high? Marion has a surprising take on this one.
How are we still talking about Donald Trump when Texas and other border states are allowing people to die during their attempted crossings? SB4 threatens to make this appalling situation far worse. Can it be stopped? The 5th Circuit has allowed it. Now it’s the Supreme Court’s chance to stand up but don’t count on that. Is the Supreme Court the most dangerous force in America? Is their goal to retain a white America? Surely that’s already impossible?
Over in the extended episode we hear who might be Trump’s blind date running mate. He is turning this into a game show. Marion reflects on Leo Veradkur’s Washington visit and why politicians tend to resign. What kind of resignation was this? The Oscars and the future of funding for Israel brutal assault on Gaza. A new investigation has made shocking revelations about October 7th.

Super Tuesday was anything but super. Marion McKeone reflects on the most pedestrian Grand National of all time. Can this Donkey Derby between two candidates nobody seems to want change? But wait, doesn’t one of the candidates owe a half a billion dollars? The Supreme Court seems very happy to assist him in stalling but surely the bond will have to be paid. Their ruling over Colorado, where is Ron DeSantis, IVF in Alabama and is there such a thing as political fitness? There’s so much to cover this week. That’s why we give you a double size episode each week for our members.

Unflappable. That’s one word to describe Donald Trump. In the face of being ordered to pay almost a half a billion dollars by the courts he seems unperturbed. Why? Does Marion know something we don’t know about how he plans to pay this money back? As she explains, there is no wriggling out of this one. Meanwhile rubble is being bombed in Gaza and the last remaining people fleeing the conflict pray for an end has Biden forgotten how powerful he is or wussed out? A piece in the Guardian this week has sparked a conversation around the perplexing actions of the President and how weak and heartless it is starting to make him and his foreign policy advisors look.
In the final part of our episode Marion examines Liz Truss’ performance at CPAC and the company she now keeps, Nikki Hayley’s attempts to cobble together some funds to keep going, Tucker’s Russian fever dream and more.

The big football game hasn't even kicked off and Marion's voice is already as good as gone. She puts on a show of guts in today's podcast as she joins comedian Jarlath Regan to talk about the week's latest news. Is Taylor Swift working for the Defence Department, is LA about to be washed away and will Tucker get his interview with Putin? Most importantly Donald Trump's attempts to convince the world that he should be allowed do whatever he likes because he was once the President look to be over. In yet another calamitous week for the GOP Mike Johnson ran from the building, Mitch showed his hand and Biden learned how to rattle the man before he throws the football.
