In this episode of Ramble, Joe took a covert trip to Barcelona to meet an Irish guy who goes
by the name Dominick Skinner (not his real name). After an online Twitter spat with the
Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, he launched a database exposing the
identities of ICE agents in the USA.
Since then the operation has grown, with hundreds of volunteers running a ship that's fueled by
whistleblowers and data-leaks. Joe talks to Dominick about how it all started, what he hopes
to achieve, and how he went from being a homeless teenager to being a thorn in the side of
the biggest super-power in the world, with new laws being proposed based on his actions
and the threat of financial sanctions looming over him. (Explicit)

In this episode of Ramble, Joe went to Crumlin Boxing Club to chew the fat with Johnny Jawbreaker, a Bare Knuckle fighter. Formerly an MMA fighter with Bellator and Cage Warriors, John Redmond is now competing in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC). This episode skips the standard sports chat for a blunt look at the brutal realities of fighting for a living. Redmond quotes surprising data showing that fighting without gloves actually results in lower concussion rates than traditional boxing.
He also opens up about the dark side of retirement after sport, discussing his personal battles with severe post-career depression before finding a new purpose. From stepping up to a world-champion fight on a day’s notice, to the commercial explosion of the sport under controversial BKFC co-owner Conor McGregor, John tells it all with raw honesty. (Explicit)
