Über diesen Titel

The Village Oak Tree is where the Irish storyteller comes to your digital village to bring you stories from the outside world. Join me every Wednesday as I try my best to find topics that are not plastered all over the main stream news pages everywhere you look. I research news from around the world, that despite not being in all over the front pages, may be important to regular people nonetheless. To wrap things up, I try to add a little imagination to your visit with a short story that might make you think. Sláinte

    Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

    I am your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

    Thank you for joining me again this week.

    With all of the drama from Trump’s military operation last weekend going on, let’s talk a little bit about the repercussions that few are talking about in the main stream media.

    I also want to offer up a brief look into society in China these days that their media isn’t telling the world about.

    So, gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit and let’s talk about how all of this is going to affect those of us in the U.S. very soon.

    For those who may be listening on other podcast platforms, come visit me at https://crann-na-beatha.com for more about me and what I'm about.

    Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

    I am your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

    Thank you for joining me.

    Welcome to the last podcast for 2025

    I want to talk about something that’s barely registering in the news these days. That’s this current Super Flu, H3N2, that’s now widespread across the country earlier than normal. The nearly defunct CDC is reporting 4.6 million Super Flu cases, 49000 hospitalizations and 1900 deaths, so far, since September. And this is just the stats from the U.S.

    So, gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit and let’s talk about how this is probably affecting someone you know.

    Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

    I am your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

    Thank you for joining me.

    As we come to the close of another year, according to the Roman calendar, I’m hearing more and more that people are suffering from burnout. A burnout caused by sensationalist news media that hits us every waking moment of our lives nowadays.

    We’re tired of hearing about economies failing, hearing about thousands of people dying around the world in all manner of ways, and our governments failing us every time we elect someone new to replace the feckless ones that failed us before. Maybe we should take a lesson from Bulgaria where the people just protested large and loudly enough to oust their government.

    In the U.S., things are starting to reach a fever pitch in a lot of places.

    Gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit and let’s talk about what’s going on that may not be making any headlines where you are. To close out today’s podcast, I have a satirical seasonal poem to read for you from one of my dearest friends.
