@monteblan Oh wait, listening to the Nairac episode, the voice is definitely AI generated. Fuck me, it's so realistic. I'll be out of a job in no time

[The Troubles Podcast @TroublesPodcast]

@monteblan Nope no idea, no social media. I don't think it's AI slop either, but the script does sound a bit weird. I checked to see if it's directly copied from Wikipedia and it doesn't seem to be. Very mysterious indeed!

@ThatCatGirl Hmmm, I'm not sure. Online it says I can gift subs on Patreon but I can't figure out how to do that. Try joining the patreon as a free member and then message me, and I'll see if I can figure out how to gift you a month to test

@cormacmoore @MerrionPress Looks great! Best of luck with the release

@McGartland_ Hey Martin, I'll probably be doing an episode on your life this coming season. Just wondering if you'd be interested in coming on and having a chat? It can be over zoom and I'd love to hear your first hand experiences during the troubles. Cheers, Oisin

By sheer coincidence the most recent episode of this podcast was about the La Mon bomb. A report was just released today which didn't find any evidence of collusion but still left many questions remaining for the victims families.

[Cool FM News @newsoncool]

🚨La Mon IRA bomb: Report did not find "any collusion between the terrorists and any brand of the RUC."

🔴Questions still remain for families of those murdered:

❓️Identities of bomb makers.
❓️Where the bomb was made.
❓️Names of IRA leaders who sanctioned bombing.
❓️Who delivered bomb to La Mon.
❓️Questions for the Republic of Ireland and their role in investigation.

🗣Advocacy Support Manager at Ulster Human Rights Watch, Axel Schmidt, speaking with families after the publication of the Ombudsman report.

🎤Chief Reporter @jamesgould23 is there.

✍️There was an "earnest endeavour" made to bring those responsible for the attack, in which 12 people died, to justice.

The La Mon House Hotel Bombing was an incendiary attack carried out by the PIRA on unsuspecting guests at the La Mon Hotel. By the time the bomb threat was called in, it was too late and many people died in the horrific blaze which ensued.

The Say Nothing TV series will be released in November. Looks like it'll focus on the Price sisters. Tonally, it's quite different from what I expected.

@theleighmilne Switching hosts from Spreaker to Megaphone... It shouldn't affect the listener, but for some reason its not been a super smooth transition. I'm on it today though.
