Kinahan Cartel second in command Sean McGovern has been lifted by police in an early morning raid in Dubai.

McGovern wanted here for the murder of Noel Duck Egg Kirwan is Daniel Kinahan’s number two and closest confident.

So what does this development mean in the global takedown of the Kinahan Cartel, is it a step closer to Kinahan’s own arrest and when will McGovern be back on Irish soil. Today I’m talking with Niall Donald about politics, crime and a Cartel under pressure.

Why should we care about the Manosphere?

Why should we care about the Manosphere?

It’s a loose network of online influencers, forums, and content creators who claim to offer men a roadmap to success - promising wealth, control, and dominance in relationships. But beneath that surface lies something far more complex and far more troubling... Through viral clips, podcasts, and paywalled courses, these figures are shaping how a generation of young men understand masculinity, women, and power. It’s a space where dissatisfaction is reframed as truth and where misogyny isn’t just normalised - it’s monetised. Chloe McPolin speaks to Crime World’s Roisin Gorman to pull back the curtains on Louis Theroux’s documentary Inside the Manosphere - one of the most concerning subcultures yet. Hosted on Acast.
