  • Lack of Northern Irish content

    Good podcasts with thoughtful discussion but the lack of Northern Irish content is extremely frustrating and quite honestly disrespectful to your listeners north of the border.

    A well produced show with thoughtful discussion but the almost complete lack of Northern Irish content is very frustrating.

  • Could be better

    The sound quality is often poor. Content is good and balanced but overall feels dated.

Young Stock Podcast - ‘there are so many opportunities within agriculture’

Young Stock Podcast - ‘there are so many opportunities within agriculture’
Q: What was your own background, where are you from, and where did your interest in agriculture come from?
Clancy grew up on her family dairy farm in County Clare, studied agricultural science in Tralee, and built a career combining agriculture and education through roles at Salesian Agricultural College Palleskennery, Teagasc and Galway and Roscommon ETB.
Growing Minds- Introduction to Leaving Cert Agricultural Science
Q: What's the most effective way to study the subject?
Holton recommends understanding concepts before memorizing them, revising consistently in short sessions, practicing questions after topics, organizing notes, learning terminology, and practicing diagrams, calculations and experiments.
Growing Minds- Introduction to Leaving Cert Agricultural Science
Q: Do you need to come from a farming background to do well in the subject?
No. Holton says students without farm experience can do very well by applying themselves and treating the course as a science, while using school visits and other resources to gain context.
Women & Agriculture conference - Rural crime
Q: A lot has changed in the force in recent years in terms of its response to domestic abuse. Can you tell me a little bit about the most recent, not statistics, but the most recent responses?
Patricia Gill says domestic abuse is a priority for An Garda Síochána and reports that 55,000 incidents were reported in 2025. She encourages reporting and notes that people can also first contact support services in their county.
