The story of the Society of United Irishmen in Dublin is a story of subversion and a story of dissent. Historian Fergus Whelan, author of a new biography of leading United Irishman William Drennan, joins Donal Fallon to discuss the United Irishmen's origins, their ideology and to answer a central question: How shaped were they by Protestantism and Protestant identity?

Contains the familiar (Wolfe Tone) and the unfamiliar (Oliver Bond) on a journey through a different Dublin.
