Richard Hogan: I was lost, Bono's act of kindness helped me find my way in life (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last Friday, the band U2 celebrated 50 years together. That’s an incredible achievement in an industry famous for chewing up artists and spitting them out. U2 have been in the background of my life since I was a child. I’d watch these four Irish lads chat to Gay Byrne on The Late Late Show. Then, I’d go out and buy whatever record was their latest offering. I had vinyl Rattle And Hum and Achtung Baby. The Joshua Tree was constantly in our tape player in the car. We’d all be singing Where The Str
Richard Hogan: A wonderful event in Cork with 4,000 girls — thanks to people like Katie Taylor (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What a week it has been for Irish sport. Boxer Katie Taylor filled Croke Park with 80,000 fans, and won her final bout by a unanimous decision over Flora Pili. What an incredible career Katie has had. Rocky Balboa stuff. But Katie’s greatest fight was never the opponent in the ring, but how society views gender. There had been talk a girl could never fill Croke Park for a boxing match. After all, Mohammed Ali struggled to draw more than 18,000 in 1972, when he fought Alvin Lewis. Katie’s fight w
Richard Hogan: State must get tough on social media to protect society (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The country has been in a state of shock since the news broke that five teenage boys intentionally drove a car down the wrong side of the road and ploughed into an innocent family of three sisters and a seven-year-old boy. The five boys — Jack Kennedy, 17, from Athy, Co Kildare, Jeremy O’Brien, 18, and his cousin Alex McCarthy, 17, from Carlow; Joey Carthy, 15, from Athy, Co Kildare; and Kamil Pustkowski, 17, from Limerick — were all killed in the incident on the M9 motorway last Sunday week. Yo
Richard Hogan: Was solar eclipse the best sight of my life? 100% (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For years, I was tormented by the sky. I’d read magazines on the great celestial goings-on in our solar system, wide-eyed, I’d look up, and nothing. An unrelating grey canopy of stratocumulus clouds. I couldn’t understand it. Then I’d hear Anne Doyle or Charles Mitchel describe with great excitement what was going to fill our sky that evening. I’d be telling my friends about it all that day, and then I’d stay up late, peel back the curtains with such unabandoned expectations to behold the great
Richard Hogan: Parents who scroll can’t call out their child’s phone use (opens the original)
Read excerpt
IRISH parents have some of the most positive views in Europe of their children’s relationship with technology, according to a Eurobarometer poll. Some 53% of Irish parents believe social media has a positive effect on their child’s mental well-being. This is more than twice the EU average of 21%. So, what does this study reveal? Are Irish parents deluding themselves? Are they more comfortable with a convenient untruth than their EU counterparts? Well, the research would suggest so. Or maybe it p
