Instead of our usual chat we have a Special Guest in the tortoise shack in the shape of Solicitor, writer of the #GE2020 Campaign Gist and long-time friend of the pod, Simon McGarr.

We talk about the earthquake that's shaking the foundations of Irish politics, the Fine Gael meltdown and their seeming continuation on the path of self-destruction, the rise of Sinn Féin and what that might look like in power and the 'dog that didn't bark', in the form of the Climate election that never was. We also discuss where real power resides.
