I'm back with a regular episode! I so enjoyed this one so I hope you do too. We get an update from Carl Kinsella on his new personal achievement along with the latest updates on Gaza, Cop 28, a tornado in Leitrim and a female Deputy President of the IFA!
Green Party MEP Grace O'Sullivan tells us about her journey to politics via a decade on Greenpeace ships and a love for nature. I find Grace's story incredibly inspiring and hope you do too.
Cian Sullivan and I discuss the week's celeb antics including the beauty of Shane MacGowan's funeral and the Irish lads dominating the Golden Globes (which I took as an excuse to go on and on about how much I'm loving Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal's press tour for All of Us Strangers).
Come and join me in The Everyman in Cork on February 1st!

I promised you a recording of a conversation I had with David Nicholls on Monday night at ILDF, but unfortunately that recording appears to have been lost. I'm devo - there was a technical issue during the chat where our microphones went out and apparently what actually had happened was that the sound desk shut down and the recording was deleted. Gutting, to say the least. Fortunately, I was planning on bringing you a recording of my chat with Pillow Queens from my most recent live show anyway, so it just moved up the schedule a little. I hope you enjoy.

The European election is coming up and there are ONE HUNDRED MILLION CANDIDATES* and it can all be a little confusing so I got the brilliant Sinead O'Carroll, editor of TheJournal.ie, back to help. She explains why our vote is so important, how to get basic info about the candidates and how to use your vote most effectively. This episode isn't about telling you who to vote for, rather making sure you feel empowered to use your vote in the best way for you.
