September 07, 2023 DAN TROY: From here to Wuhan

August 31, 2023 BRAVE NEW ELECTORAL WORLD: Gary Murphy
The electoral commission has recommended more TDs and more constituencies for the next general election. But what does it all mean, who are the winners and where can you find the losers? Will it impact on the formation of the next government? Why do we need more TDs at all and why do we like our constituencies within county bounds. Running the rule over this new electoral landscape is Gary Murphy, Professor of Politics at DCU.

August 24, 2023 HISTORY NOW AND THEN: Danny Morrison
Last week Mick wrote a column with the headline “McSwiney’s legacy is being stolen by Sinn Fein”. The McSwiney referenced was Terence, the Lord Mayor of Cork who died on hunger strike in 1920. One reader who took issue with the piece was Danny Morrison, former director of publicity for Sinn Fein and one of the central figures in the provisional movement in Northern Ireland throughout the Troubles. Danny suggested a podcast on the matter and who could turn down such an offer.

Ireland’s women returned home this week after exiting their very first World Cup finals after just three games.

Consultant psychiatrist Professor Colin O'Gara joins the podcast this week to discuss.
