In their first chat of 2023 Martin and Dean have an honest open discussion about fear, racism, discrimination, tolerance, solidarity and love. Dean pushes Martin on why having women travellers on the podcast isn't only important its healthy and inevitable. Martin gives us a really special surprise to welcome in a new year.

In our last chat of 2022 and our first Podcast of 2023 we shoot the breeze with a Ballymun Legend, Ray 'Sparky' Corcoran. As a youth worker in Ballymun for 40 yrs Sparky has a wealth of experience, insight and wisdom as to what's what in Dublin. We chat about family, music, sea swimming, ghosts, homelessness, drugs, Christmas spirit and the importance of doing good work in your community.

In their final podcast chat of 2022 Martin and Dean sit down with Historian, Author and Podcaster Donal Fallon for a lovey heart felt social history chin wag about all things Dublin. Donal's Podcast 'Three Castles Burning' is a wonderfully crafted insight into some of the real hidden gems of Ireland's capita cityl, 'Dubh Linn', beyond the air brushed tourist traps and trails.

We sit down with Subset for a conversation about Art, Love, Life, lessons to learn and what to do to feel alive. Recorded live in Mend. Since inception Subset have been preparing for an inevitable standoff with Dublin City Council. Ideological differences have given rise to a clash between imagination and risk mitigation. This has led to a protracted court battle over several years, stemming from the allegation of “Unauthorised Murals”.

This is our first ever live podcast and the first live podcast recorded in axis theatre Ballymun, the first event of the first ever Ballymun Summit and Martins first time on stage. A lot of firsts. We had the great pleasure having the amazing Senator Lynn Ruane as our guest. Thanks to all the staff at axis and the wonderful audience. We had lots of fun, and we can't wait for our next live show.

This is a special Episode, recorded a few months ago. Dean and Martin chat about the pros and cons of social media, the good, the bad and the often very ugly. Smartphones for all the good they bring have made for some very dumb ideas. TikTok, Instagram, Facebook etc are in the business of keeping your attention at any cost. Remember Kids... If You Are Not Paying for the Product, You Are the Product!

Just back from having Covid Dean sits down with Martin and talks about everything from the Pagan Festival of Halloween, Martin leading Good Friday prayers on St Margarets Traveller site, to pilgrimages and black fasts on an Island on Lough Derg in Donegal. We also promote our first live show in axis Ballymun on Nov 18th.

We have the pleasure of sitting down with the courageous, charismatic and intelligent Hughie Maughan. Hughie is Martins neighbour, and this conversation explores so many important themes. From why humans fight, our fear of death, and how we might be all able to learn to live with each other without prejudice. This episode is basically Talking Bollox for Travellers.
