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

  • Who’s the Toughest Guy on Block, Putin or Trump?
    Oct 7 2026

    The podcast is a bit longer than usual because the reading of this week’s story chapter was a bit longer than usual. I hope everyone enjoys, nonetheless.

    Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

    I’m your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

    Thank you for joining me again this week.

    This week, I have the third and last part of my series on Putin and Trump. Today, I put things in perspective as I compare Trump to Putin. I outline the things they’ve done to gain and retain their power. Both of them have traveled a different road to get them were they are in 2026, mostly because of the cultural differences between Russia and the United States.

    So, gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit. Let me compare these two men, and offer a little on why Trump is such a fanboy of brutal dictators. (Hint: I’m leaning towards their childhoods, which likely shaped them into who they are)

  • The U.S.S.R. vs. the U.S. Part 2
    Sep 30 2026

    Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

    I’m your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

    Thank you for joining me again this week.

    As promised, I have part 2 of my discussion about the parallels between the old U.S.S.R., and the U.S. in 2026. I left off last week with what happened to the Soviet Union in December of 1991, and a taste of what happened to them until Putin came to power in 1999. Today, I’m going to get deeper into the weeds about what that could look like if the United States should follow in Russia’s footsteps. I will also beg your indulgence for this lengthy podcast, as there is a lot to say about today’s topic. Please bear with me.

    So, gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit as I continue with part 2 of the collapse of the old Soviet Union, and compare that event to the United States today.

  • The Old Soviet Union vs. The Current United States Part 1

    Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

    I’m your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

    Thank you for joining me again this week.

    I’m about two days behind schedule this week because of other more pressing issues, but I have managed to carve out some time to talk about the United States, and how it’s starting to mirror the old Soviet Republic right up to when it finally came to it’s inglorious end by December 25th, 1991.

    I will try hard to map out the parallels between the U.S. right now, compared to Russia back in the late 1980’s right up to the day they took the old hammer and sickle down at the Kremlin, and raised the new federation flag in its stead.

    So, gather round, sit you down somewhere comfortable for a bit as I walk people through a little history in today’s podcast. Next week, I’ll bring it all together to show how everything is starting to fit together towards the day that someone raises a different flag in Washington D.C after the collapse of the United States.
