I talked with John Dorney about Ireland's neutrality during the Second World War.

I interviewed Dr. Mary McAuliffe on Margaret Skinnider, the subject of her newest book and the role of female combatants in the Irish Revolutionary Period.

I interview historian Seán Gannon about what happened to the RIC, Black and Tans and the Auxiliaries after the Irish War of Independence. Many of them end up in Palestine and many Irish men go too.

I interviewed Dr. Jim O'Neill of Queen's University Belfast about Hugh O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone, and the Nine Years War.

I talk to Damian Shiels about the Irish involvement in the American Civil War

Part three of the Kilmichael Ambush looks at phrase four of the ambush where the controversial "False Surrender" took place. I delve into the evidence and eye witness statements to see if they corroborate with Tom Barry's account. I also mention the role that British Naval Intelligence may have played in the War and how that effected the outcome at Kilmichael on the cold November evening.
