  • A welcome and beautiful alternative to the constant boom boom boom

    The first clip was an essay about a royal train in Ireland that could have fit nicely into a program like RTÉ's "the history show." But as the program progressed, I sank gently into a meadow of words, both essay and poetry, and emerged at the end rested and renewed.

    What a relief to the often interesting but eventually overwhelming boom boom boom of energy and words that mark the urgent fight for audiences our money-driven world demands.

  • Miniature masterpieces

    This show is magical. Discovered in my middle age, as an exile in London, this show is my strongest cultural link back home. It’s hard to pin down what’s special about being Irish. This weekly ‘open mic’ is, to me, a unique collection of stories that seem to distill the essence of late 20th century Irishness. To the producers; thank you.
