Journalism, Boxing, Daniel Kinahan and Why Everything is Upside Down

Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack It’s 2026, Gerry Hutch has left his second home of Lanzarote to run as a candidate in the upcoming Dublin Central byelection and Daniel Kinahan is in a Dubai prison cell fighting not to be sent back to Ireland to face justice. Irish sports legend Katie Taylor is looking to book her swansong fight in Croke Park. all the while the Regency shooting hangs like a cloud over everything. It’s all a bit surreal. Joining me on the shack to discuss it all is sports journalist Kieran Cunningham. There’s no doubt in my mind that if it wasn’t for the work of Kieran, Daniel Kinahan’s rise and rise in the sport of boxing would have continued and things would be very different. May you live in interesting times.
