Show me the (taxpayers) money...

What does the RTÉ scandal tell us about Ireland? Joe and Dion explain why this was always about more than Ryan Tubridy’s salary. The Late Late Show’s decline from the glory days of Gay Byrne shows how RTÉ has been captured and why it can’t be a public service broadcaster and an advertising agency at the same time.

Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning is a Gold Hat Production in association with SwanMcG.
