Summary

Due to Continuing covid symptoms Irishman Abroad podcasts are running a little behind schedule. But this episode is definitely worth the wait. Sarah Palin is running for Congress but are the people of Alaska interested in the Masked Singer contestant? Donald Trump seems to think so. He backed the so-called hockey Mom/MAGA innovator to win. What are the chances that Donald will flip his opinion on Putin as his war crimes continue to disgust Americans? His sense of what is the most popular opinion might be so out of whack that it could cost him the Presidential nomination. Jarlath asks Marion if the atrocities in Bucha have changed anything in how America views this war and if the average Joe is paying attention to this and the January 6th investigation. Finally Marion answers a listener's question about Will Smith and where he might find redemption.
