Fergie Chambers, once heir to one of the biggest family fortunes in America, moved to Ireland after leaving the US where he was involved in funding pro-Palestinian causes. But he was arrested while on holidays in Ibiza over the summer, and now faces up to 30 years in prison, according to his wife, accused of funding Hamas to the tune of $7.5 million. At the centre of his story is his ownership of the Tunisian football club, Club Africain. Irish filmmaker Sinéad O'Shea has made a documentary about Fergie Chambers, and she joins Ger to tell this remarkable tale.  Available Monday-Friday, on RTÉ Listen or wherever you get your podcasts.

It's one year out from the Rugby World Cup and the Howler countdown clock has been turned on - ticking remorselessly towards next year's Halloween Quarter Final. Will our strange failure to reach a semi final continue beyond 2027? Or is now the time that we drive a stake into the heart of the beast that has stalked Ireland's RWC experience for four decades?  James Tracy talks to Ger about today's squad announcement and what it tells us about Andy Farrell's plans. Looking back at our 40 years of World Cup anguish are Gordon D'Arcy, Nick Popplewell and Tom English. Their horror stories include Bayonne players lubing up their fingers so they can stick them into unmentionable parts of the 07 squad; getting beaten by French players spotted smoking and drinking an hour before the game; and the 95 players failing to recognise the giant Jonah Lomu in a lift, shortly before he crushed them in a Johannesburg pool match.
