This podcast explores twentieth century Irish history with a focus on Michael Collins and his transformation as an Irish freedom fighter against British rule, to chairman of the provisional government of the Irish Free State, a British Dominion. This is largely based off of my capstone project I completed at the end of my 4 year undergraduate history program at St. Mary's University, which I was never able to present due to Covid-19.

Episode 2: The London Colony, and the Easter Rising.

In this second episode we will explore the impact of Michael Collins' time in London, where he worked closely with the Gaelic League and the Gaelic athletic association, bringing him closer to his own Irishness and his people. We will also be discussing the most famous bid for Irish freedom, the Easter Rising - a doomed revolution which reinvigorated the desire for freedom for decades to come, an event which will set in motion Michael Collins' own revolutionary break following the war of independence period. This is the beginning of said period, the rebirth of the Irish struggle into the twentieth century. Sources utalized for this episode: Margery Forester.

Episode one: A brief history of Ireland

In my first ever podcast episode, I will be attempting to deliver a brief introduction of my capstone project, as well as a brief history of Ireland. In this episode we will explore some of the roots of English rule in Ireland as well as British colonialism and it's effects. The topics discussed in this podcast will range from the Tudor conquest of Ireland, to the Potatoe famine of 1845 and the second Boer War. Furthermore, we will be investigating what makes 'Irish' nationalism unique. This episode's main goal is to provide you with a brief understanding of context, to familiarize yourself with the Irish experience prior to the 20th century. The sources utilized in the making of this episode are as followed: Richard Killeen, 'A Short History of Modern Ireland.' (Montreal and Kingston: McGill-Queen's University Press,. 2003.)

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
