    Welcome to our sixth episode of the Hollywood to Holywood podcast! In this fun Halloween special, we'll be chatting all-things spooky season! From cultural traditions to our favorite scary movies (we focus a bit more on the latter), this instalment goes perfectly with a pumpkin-spice latte.

    Hosted by Emma and Jake DeSouza, follow their musings from the island of Ireland on life, politics, art, culture, history, and more. With insight and analysis from Jake, a musician and artist from Los Angeles, who moved to Northern Ireland only to find himself metamorphosised into an over-night rights campaigner when he married his Irish better half Emma - together, they won unprecedented rights for the people of Northern Ireland after taking on the British government, and now look to examine topics and ideas of all kinds, each and every week with their listeners!

  • Hollywood To Holywood - Episode 5 (Lockdown 2020)

    Welcome to our fifth episode of the Hollywood to Holywood podcast! In this instalment, we'll be diving into the subject of lockdown, how it has impacted us and the rest of the community, and the lengths we go to entertain ourselves while cooped up for months on end. At the bottom of the show notes you'll find a fairly comprehensive list of movies and tv shows which we indulged in during our many nights in, some less-than-proud choices included, but also with the exclusion of a few titles a bit too embarrassing to list - one such lengthy television series took up an inordinate quantity of pages within our viewing history, but shall remain nameless at the request of a visibly ashamed Emma.

    Hosted by Emma and Jake DeSouza, follow their musings from the island of Ireland on life, politics, art, culture, history, and more. With insight and analysis from Jake, a musician and artist from Los Angeles, who moved to Northern Ireland only to find himself metamorphosised into an over-night rights campaigner when he married his Irish better half Emma - together, they won unprecedented rights for the people of Northern Ireland after taking on the British government, and now look to examine topics and ideas of all kinds, each and every week with their listeners!

    Welcome to our fourth episode of the Hollywood to Holywood podcast! In this instalment, we'll be discussing the subtle and defined cultural differences between the lifestyles of those hailing from Los Angeles and Northern Ireland, as well as the impact switching things up can have on someone leaving California for a new life in Belfast. Everything from public transport to live music, snacks to slang - tune in this week for some literal and figurative food for thought!

  • Hollywood To Holywood - Episode 3 (Political Accountability)

    Welcome to our third episode of the Hollywood to Holywood podcast! In this instalment, we'll be discussing the concept of political accountability, and its elusive nature in the context of many of Northern Ireland's public representatives. We'll be picking apart various examples, both notable recent instances of flagrant disregard for the COVID lockdown rules we've all become all to familiar with of late, as well as some shocking blasts from the past. So saddle up and take a ride with us down unpleasant memory lane to gawk at the questionable excuses both for- and made by- political figures we know and love to hate!

    Hosted by Emma and Jake Desouza, follow their musings from the island of Ireland on life, politics, art, culture, history, and more. With insight and analysis from Jake, a musician and artist from Los Angels, who moved to Northern Ireland only to find himself metamorphosised into an over-night rights campaigner when he married his Irish better half Emma - together, they won unprecedented rights for the people of Northern Ireland after taking on the British government, and now look to examine topics and ideas of all kinds, each and every week with their listeners!

  • Hollywood To Holywood - Episode 2 (The Good Friday Agreement)

    Welcome to our second episode of the Hollywood to Holywood podcast! In this instalment, we'll be discussing The Good Friday Agreement - a unique international peace accord binding the two nations of Ireland and the United Kingdom, with the addition of the United States acting as a third co-guarantor. We'll be going into detail about the rights and entitlements afforded by the treaty, the impact they have on Northern Irish society, and the difficulties and challenges forced upon citizens when a government doesn't adhere to the letter and the spirit of such an essential and singular document. So join us as we delve into the GFA, and those who made it possible!
