The lads are back for Part 2 of our 2026 All-Ireland Hurling Predictions! After a massive opening segment, we’re putting our necks on the line to pick our 2026 Provincial Champions for Munster and Leinster.

With the Munster round-robin looking more competitive than ever and Kilkenny defending their Bob O’Keeffe crown in Leinster, we analyze the tactical shifts and key form that will decide the silverware. Plus, we reveal our "Surprise Package" for 2026—the team we believe will blow the championship wide open and upset the established order.

We also dive deep into the "Big Question" facing the rising counties: Can Kildare and Laois truly bridge the gap?

The lads are back! Season 2, Episode 2 of Beyond The 65 starts with a bang as we dive into part one of our 2026 Hurling Preview.

In this episode, John "Bubbles" O'Dwyer and Conor McDonald give their unfiltered takes on the state of the game. We’re asking the tough questions: Can Tipperary finally find the consistency to reclaim the Liam MacCarthy? After years of All-Ireland heartbreak, is Ben O’Connor the missing piece of the puzzle for the Rebels, or does the Cork model need a deeper fix?

We also go deep on the "modern game"—discussing the current state of play and whether the proposed 2026 rule changes (like the dissent penalties and structure tweaks) will actually freshen up the spectacle or just complicate it.

WE ARE BACK! Beyond The 65 returns for a brand new season.

In our Season 2 Premiere, Luke is back in the studio with Tipperary legend Bubbles O'Dwyer and Wexford star Conor McDonald. After a historic 2025, the lads have plenty to catch up on, from the dizzying highs of inter-county glory to the raw reality of the club trenches.

We take a look back at Tipperary’s massive All-Ireland Hurling Final win over Cork—an iconic day for the Premier County—and discuss how life changes the moment you step off the Hogan Stand and back onto the local club pitch.

In this episode, the lads discuss the return to the studio after their own club championship runs and the fallout of the Tipp vs. Cork final. We also dive into the unique psychological battle of watching your county teammates find success with their clubs while yours falls short. We explore why some of the most dominant club teams in Ireland come from counties with little recent inter-county success and set the bar for Darragh McCarthy’s expectations heading into the 2026 season.
