  • If you like news/current affairs but other news podcasts are a bit too dry and you are based in Ireland this is for you. I 'd describe it as well informed, intelligent discussion with humour and an interesting mix of topics and I wish it was more than once a week.

Q: What do you think about Bloody Sunday? Do you think?

Q: What role do you think protest played in the recent events?
Aoife believes protests are crucial as they can wear down governments and show public dissent, which influences political leaders like Netanyahu.

Q: What is your opinion on the comments made by Ivan Yates about the presidential election?
