What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
all the other people on the Irish radio station were like, there's nothing personal about the people you're talking to. And they thought I was Irish. And just, so that's kind of great. Like, it's like, oh, hi, Antín Alba. You know, that's what a lot of people say to me when they hear, like, the doctor said to me about the flu vaccine.
It's like, OK.
Hey there, we are Indosport with me, Joe Molloy, and we have things like this.
The consolidated revenue of the GA annually is in around 250 million. So I would feel money can be found somewhere, Joe. This equity equality business, nobody in LGFA or camogie circles are looking for a team holiday for all 32 counties every year. It's not that, it's baseline. And then you grow that down the line, like you grow it as the years go on.
On the latest episode of Real Health with me, Carl Henry, I'm chatting all things organ donation with Peter Conlon.
When I'm dead, my organs being buried are no use to anybody, but my organs can go in and transform the lives of nine people. You can donate your corneas, your heart valves, your heart, both your lungs, your liver can go to two people, both your kidneys, pancreas, and then there's various tissues that can be used. So nine people's lives can be transformed.

For almost 50 years, successive British governments have condemned Israel's illegal settlements in the occupied territories. But condemnation never translated into action and the settlements continued to expand.
At the time of the Oslo Peace Accords in 1993, around 270,000 settlers lived in the occupied Palestinian territories. Today it is some 770,000.
So, why has this Labour government finally chosen to flip the script?
So I can announce today that we will introduce an import ban on goods from illegal settlements in the occupied territories.
Meanwhile, political pressure is mounting on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
This is a bombshell of a report that some 10 days or so before October 7th, the ruler of the UAE called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and warned him that Hamas was planning what was described to him as an earthquake.
With Israel edging closer to another election, fresh questions are being asked about his political future and whether his grip on power can survive the growing scrutiny. I'm Tessa Fleming, and today on the IndoDaily, I'm joined by Sam Kiley, World Affairs Editor at the UK Independent and host of the World of Trouble podcast, and by Middle Eastern correspondent with The Economist, Greg Karlstrom, to discuss the UK government's seismic policy shift and to ask what the political future holds for Netanyahu. Sam Kiley, earlier this week it was announced that the UK government will be implementing a trade ban between themselves and Israeli settlements. So maybe just talk to me a little bit about what this entails, what the ban includes.
Yeah.
Well, it's a very good question because it's very, very difficult indeed. And this may, in fact, be part of why they focus just on settlements and not the more broader potential to ban imports from Israel itself. Of course, the EU in particular is coming under pressure from groups that are outraged by what Israel is doing to do just that. But what it means in terms of the settlements, these... essentially jewish colonies that have been established since 1967 on the west bank forming a kind of unconnected mosaic of colonies for jews only israeli jews only have businesses they have wine industry they have dates that they grow in the jordan valley a soda stream used to be manufactured on the west bank they now insist that they've moved their operations out of there further down the red sea so you've got
a range of different industries, mostly agricultural spin-off products, and they are sold internationally if they can. Now the British, and there are 11 other nations that are saying to a greater or lesser extent they're going to follow suit fairly soon, are going to impose legislation which means that products from those areas can't be sold into the British market.
