In 2018 I was given a commitment by RTE Radio 1, Ireland's national radio broadcaster, that it would back a series I wanted to do based on the more than one hundred interviews I did between 1988 and 2003, related to the Troubles in Northern Ireland. These were in-depth discussions with 76 politicians and countless cultural figures, such as Christy Moore, Richard Harris and Sinead O' Connor, about what was incontestably the single most important issue facing Ireland's future. RTE backed out of supporting that broadcast, for reasons that had more to do with internal politics, perhaps. So, now, I have decided to tap into many of those tapes in a new podcast series Troubled Voices, which, as with the radio series is basically an update of my 1996 book, Troubadours and Troublemakers.
