One night in Na Fianna | The 'Westlife years', All-Ireland glory, the reality of 4,000 club members
Last month, Indo Sport packed up the studio and headed to north Dublin’s Na Fianna GAA club for a special live podcast recording in one of the capital's biggest clubs. From fighting to get their camogie section established, through to finding facilities for 4,000+ members - it hasn’t all been plain sailing, as our guests explain. But in the end, the endeavours were well worth it. The glory days have come good, with a suite of club titles across the codes, as well as a strong cohort of high-achieving Dubs, and a club community bursting with activity.

A Closer Look: Daniel Kinahan, boxing, the rise & fall
Daniel Kinahan’s recent arrest marked a significant turning point in the long-running pursuit of one of Ireland’s most influential organised crime figures.
