The Boys from the County Armagh. Some Orangemen have culture.

Is there hope for America and the world if Kamala Harris becomes president? Or is the deterioration in the US terminal? On this episode of Free State, Joe talks to Dion about the Joe Biden he knows, how he can never forgive him for what is happening in Gaza and why Biden resisted leaving for so long because he knows no other life outside politics. There is a now a chance that Donald Trump will be defeated but there are more important orangemen on Joe’s mind this week. Ahead of Sunday’s All-Ireland’s final, the boys consider the importance of a game like this to counties like Armagh and Galway. They look at the life and times of Marcelo Bielsa as an example of how sport connects and why that connection matters most of all. And as Joe gets more abuse from the far right, he wonders if it’s time for to get help with his dog-w***ing problem.This episode of Free State is sponsored by Manscaped.
