A week can crown a champion or cut one down. We follow Jim Gavin’s leap from the certainty of silverware to the volatility of a national presidential race, exploring why mastery in sport doesn’t automatically translate to survival in politics—and what that means for anyone tempted to cross the line from the sideline to the ballot box.
This five-minute audio version of the Sport for Business bulletin features a reading of our lead story and a different way to reach out with the best stories from the commercial world of Irish sport.
Today’s show is in partnership with the Olympic Federation of Ireland, one of the 330 organisations that comprise our membership.
Listen in each morning for a crisp, five‑minute pulse check on money, matchdays, and meaningful impact. If you enjoy these daily briefings, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with a friend who lives for Irish sport.
