OK, so this may not be a title that rings familiar to a lot of folks. But hear us out!

We were delighted to host a live CETA Digital March meeting in front of a terrific and engaged online audience.

Featuring Laura Cahill of Comlamh, Dave Gibney of Mandate, Natasha Ariff of XR, Jennifer Whitmore of the Soc Dems, Lynn Boylan of Sinn Féin and Independent Senator Alice Mary Higgins.

It has been a tumultuous few days for the Green Party. CETA (Comprehensive Economic Trade Agreement) has caused a rift and with the party leadership seemingly intent on ratifying a deal they strenuously opposed only a few months ago, we were joined by Green Party MEP, Ciarán Cuffe to talk all about it. We discuss the deal, the way it has been handled and his own feelings on it. We talk about the Greens in government and the price of power. We also discuss the flawed Climate Action Bill, the Green New Deal for Europe and an upbeat Ciarán shares his views on the EU in 2020 and what he wants to see achieved in 2021. Speaking of 2021, we want to continue you to bring you these conversations, but we need your help to do so. Please go to: patreon.com/tortoiseshack and see if there's something that you can get behind. Artwork by @Ciaraioch see ciaraioch.com Music by Alan Maguire and David O'Doherty!

The Trump Show rolls on and whether you believe that we are 3 weeks away from a U.S Presidential election or a referendum on the Donald, you can't look away. Joining us from Minnesota is writer, journalist and friend of the pod, Séamus Malekafzali. We discuss the state of the race, the erosion of the democratic norms, Covid's impact on the campaign and how, even if he wins, Donald Trump will protest the result.

With the Budget imminent we were joined by former Chair of the Fiscal Advisory Council and lecturer in UCC, Seamus Coffey. We discuss the economic differences between the Global Financial Crisis and and the Covid-19. We ask is an adherence to old rules that no longer apply going to hold back Ireland's opportunity to build back better and we discuss the options open to the government ahead of Budget day. We also look at why Ireland's GDP is so robust even in the face of a global pandemic and rising deprivation and what that tells us about the real economy. Enjoy.

No matter what way you look at it, the class of 2020 got a raw deal. To discuss this and a lot more we are joined by the President of the Union of Students in Ireland, Lorna Fitzpatrick. We ask what the college experience looks like in a Covid-19 world. Lorna outlines the challenges facing both students and faculty as the grapple with accommodation, remote learning, online portals and the loss of that social interaction that is a cornerstone of a young persons development.

Lebanon was already on its knees before a massive explosion ripped devastatingly through the old city of Beirut. We were delighted to be joined by writer and journalist, Séamus Malekafzali, to take a deep-dive into this tiny country that is too often a strategic chess piece in the games of bigger powers.

Today we are joined by Peace Commissioner and Experience Legal Executive, Roman Shortall, who spoke to #Liveline earlier in the week highlighting how he and his family were targeted at Dublin airport by SIU officers from An Garda Siochana and the Department of Social Protection. Roman's account has unearthed a scandal that is forcing the new government in to all sorts of twists and turns and which now encompasses ICCL, the DPC, FLAC and the opposition. The Oireachtas is the only body with the power to create legislation and yet it appears that the Department has taken it upon itself to firstly, overrule existing legislation, and secondly, create its own legislation. This looks set to end up in a High Noon showdown. Music written by Alan Maguire, performed by David O'Doherty, no really.

Hit podcast Juvenalia specialises in taking their guests on a nostalgic journey through their formative years with abundant wit, grace and warmth.  Longtime listeners of Be Grand (all six of them), on the other hand, are more accustomed to listening to what might as well be a drunken uncle with a JJ72 fetish who’s just been handed a microphone as he rants in the corner of the living room on Christmas Day.  So, in a long-overdue act of self-improvement, Andy this week seeks advice from Juvenalia host and Not The RTÉ Guide creator Mr. Alan Maguire. Alan talks about what he’s learned in his time chatting to people about the idiosyncrasies of pop culture’s past and what are the common themes that surface when we look back with fondness.  There’s also a profound discussion on the subtle art of nicknaming a teacher and how the smallest decisions you make in your school years can change your life in ways you’d never imagine. https://twitter.com/alan_maguire https://twitter.com/juvenalia_pod

We invite podcaster Alan Maguire on to talk about Nick Hornby's classic High Fidelity, discussing relationships, break-ups, Jack Black's animal magnetism, performing your relationship for other people, the world of record shops, the biting insight that still makes us cringe in recognition, and whether we can cancel Rob in good faith when he's trying so hard to be less objectively awful.

This week the two lads are joined by a very special guest, Alan Maguire of the Juvenalia podcast. In what is a jovial chat, filled with laughs and fuelled by pints the lads chat about a variety of topics. Eoin wanted to know if we'd rather be a dog or a ghost which unsurprisingly saw us regale tales of Casper, Homeward Bound and discuss the sexual capacity of a paranormal being., DJ always being on hand to lower the tone. We then delve into nostalgia, a concept at the core of Juvenalia. We chat about Beyoncé and her influence on the youth of today, we chat Marvel and it's slow acceptance of female and minority characters. We also get stuck into shows that we loved then but nearly loathe now. Finally, for some reason unbeknownst to anyone with a functioning adult brain Eoin decided he wanted to chat about the price of a haircut. All while having some tasty pints in Grady's Yard.

Christmas is a time for overindulgence, so this week we present you with not one but two dumb guests, some bad crackers (mostly Alex's) and a few vagina jokes just for Christmas seasoning. Alan Maguire of Roast Chestnuts and Juvenalia podcast fame talks to Caroline about made-for-TV Christmas movies and why they're having a resurgence this year, Hannah finds out the frankly heartwarming story behind Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and Alex gifts us a special Christmas poem and forces us to play games together (but it's Christmas bingo, so it's fine). Dr Jane Frail is also on hand with some useful advice about dealing with difficult family members when you're in close proximity with them, and finally trend reporter Lucy Vine joins us to tell us what we should be looking out for this winter.

Your ex – the one who doesn’t like you as much as you like them and knows it – sends a “you up?” text at 11.32pm. Should you not pick up the phone… or, instead of replying, why not practice your Irish on Duolingo instead? The popularity of Duolingo’s Irish course flies in the face of critics of the language and has been a huge encouragement to those involved in the promotion of Irish. How can we capitalise on this interest? In this week’s episode, Darach and Peadar are joined by Alan Maguire and Ellen Tannam from Headstuff’s Juvenalia Podcast. Alan and Ellen have agreed to give Duolingo’s Irish course a go and report back on what they’ve learnt. It’s a tale of cats on turtles, inappropriate koalas, owlsplaining, film references and more crabs than you can shake a stick at. There are chats about new words and gender identity in anthromorphic creatures too!

Rebecca Keane is a standup comedian, writer, and excellent Twitter person. She joined us to talk about the colossus of 90s Saturday evening entertainment, Stars In Their Eyes. We covered all the important topics like the niceness of Matthew Kelly and the bleakness of the intro videos. We brainstormed who we’d be if we ever got the chance to be on it and we managed to shoehorn in an impressive number of Drag Race references. Hope you like it!

Well we did it. We did a live show at the Dublin Podcast Festival. We did a quiz that went on slightly longer than planned and then we talked to singer and actor Maria Doyle Kennedy of The Commitments, Orphan Black, The Tudors, Dexter, Father Ted, and loads more about The Wizard Of Oz with some detours along the way to talk about mermaids, ghosts, Billie Holiday, and Maria’s directorial debut A Different Kind Of Day, before we finished with a song from Maria and her husband Kieran (who is a lovely man) from Maria’s self-titled new album which is available now. As you can hear from the episode we were delighted to meet Maria and do a live episode so thanks to everyone who came and thanks to HeadStuff and Aiken for organising a podcast festival and letting us be a part of it.

Moone Boy and Nowhere Fast‘s Clare Monnelly joins us to talk about Animaniacs. We love Animaniacs a whole lot so it was an extreme pleasure to geek out about it for fifty minutes with our new best friend Clare. We talked about getting meta jokes as a child, the hidden filthy jokes, Pinky And The Brain, Good Idea Bad Idea, Chicken Boo, Slappy Squirrel, Hello Nurse, and all the gang. We also talked about just how impressive Rob Paulsen’s rendition of Yakko’s World is, being scared of Ren & Stimpy, renting games from Xtra-Vision, and the Commodore 64.

Ciara Knight is a comedian and writer for Joe.co.uk. She’s very funny and we’re big fans of her and you should be too. She came into the dilapidated bunker where we record Juvenalia to talk about Sabrina, The Teenage Witch with Alan and Ellen. We talk about family secrets, terrible food museums, mitosis, Harvey, Salem, Violent Femmes, Sabrina’s best best friend, Britney guest spots, Daniel Bedingfield, Paul Blart: Mall Cop, celebrity noses, Paul Feig, and other things. It’s a fun time you guys. Follow Juvenalia on Twitter Juvenalia original artwork by Dee McDonnell This episode was produced by Alan Maguire

Lisa Coen is one half of Tramp Press. We’re big fans of Tramp Press here at Juvenalia so we were delighted when Lisa took a break from the world of high literature to talk to us about her love of Stephen King. As you might imagine, it took us a while to get through it all. Lisa knows so, so much about Stephen King, it was a joy to listen to her for nearly two hours. Sarah went into the episode not caring about Stephen King and came out a convert, clutching a copy of IT. You probably will too. We’ll leave you to it. If you like Juvenalia, maybe subscribe to us on your podcast app of choice and maybe, maybe, maybe leave a nice review? Thanks anyway if you don’t.

Alan and Ellen were joined by comedian Liam Nugent and Fr. Declan Quigg of the Film Palz podcast to talk about The Exorcist. Things went awry. Truths were revealed. We all learned a lot about ourselves and each other. It’s kind of about The Exorcist and kind of about trendy loolas and kind of about The Godfather and kind of about Liam’s mam. We hope you like it. You can hear more from Fr. Quigg and occasionally Liam Nugent on the Sunday Sermon podcast. Liam Nugent performs regularly at his local community centre and tries out jokes on twitter Special thanks to Giles Brody and Peter McGann for putting us in touch with Quigg and Nugent. We are forever changed. Follow Juvenalia on Twitter Juvenalia original artwork by Dee McDonnell This episode was produced by Alan Maguire and Alan Bennett, The Two Alans.

Roe McDermott is the Sex & Sexuality columnist for The Dublin Inquirer, a film critic for Hot Press, and a Fulbright scholar. Somehow, we convinced her to come on our podcast to talk about Wolfgang Petersen’s 1984 children’s fantasy classic The NeverEnding Story. Roe joined Sarah and Alan to talk youth, Trump, depression, feminism, rockbiters, safe spaces, Pantigate, and luck dragons, and we address the most important question of our time: Is Twitter actually Fantasia? The hour just flew by. Hello if you’re joining us for the first time because of a list you may have seen us on. Hopefully you’ll stick around. If you like us maybe consider subscribing and leaving a review? Also, Sarah’s AMAZING novel Spare And Found Parts is out now so you should buy it and enjoy it as much as I did.

Hello and welcome to the Juvenalia Christmas Spectacular 2016. We gathered some past and future guests around the Juvenalia table to talk Christmas with us. We were *very* surprised by the topics that came up and can pretty much guarantee that you will be too.

Here’s who was there: Alan Maguire – Co-host of Juvenalia Ellen Tannam – Co-host of Juvenalia, and Silicon Republic writer Sarah Maria Griffin – Co-host of Juvenalia, author of Spare and Found Parts, writer of many non-fiction things including Not Lost Jeanne Sutton – Deputy Editor of Stellar Magazine Valerie Loftus – Writer for the Daily Edge Darragh McCausland – Writer Ceri Bevan – HeadStuff Contributor Shawna Scott – Proprietor of SexSiopa.ie and host of Our Sexual History Peter Dunne – Playwright and brains behind Morb Tara Flynn – Comedian, Actress, Writer, All Round Legend Dave Rudden – Author of Knights Of The Borrowed Dark We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who listened, subscribed, or supported Juvenalia in any way this year.

Sinéad Gleeson is a broadcaster, writer, editor of three short story anthologies, host of The Book Show on Radio One, half of The Anti-Room, and all round enviable sound person. She very kindly joined Alan and Ellen to talk about Top of the Pops and related matters. We were a little in awe of her because she’s very cool and interviews important authors and musicians all the time and we’re two plucky ragamuffins just trying our best. We plied her with donuts until she liked us and we had a good old chat. As well as TOTP, we talked about where the young people get their music from these days, hearing songs properly in big clubs, Buster Bloodvessel related accidents, interviewing Kate Bush and loads of other little bits. Juvenalia is eighteen episodes old! We can legally drink now. We wouldn’t do that though because drinking is immoral.

Playwright Peter Dunne joins Alan & Ellen to talk about Jack Clayton’s extremely terrifying 1961 horror film The Innocents starring Deborah Kerr. We talked about all kinds of stuff: watching inappropriate things when you’re young which is basically the theme of Juvenalia, creepy children, Salem, Amityville, local mythology, whether any of us actually believe in the supernatural (spoiler: some of us do), Ouija boards, demonic possession, fear, nature v nurture, and loads more. Peter was great, we loved him. Obviously it would have been nice to get this episode out in time for Halloween but that’s not how we roll here and in fact, late November could be a perfect time to watch The Innocents for the first time. Who knows? Peter’s audio horror walking experience Eerie is in Smock Alley until November 30th so get your skates on and Peter’s extreme immersive horror club Morb could be happening anywhere, maybe even behind you right now. Probably not though, probably somewhere scary. Follow Juvenalia on Twitter Juvenalia original artwork by Dee McDonnell This episode was produced by Alan Bennett and Alan Maguire.

2FM DJ and writer Louise McSharry joins Alan Maguire and Sarah Maria Griffin to talk about 80s CLASSIC Dirty Dancing. We brought a wide range of Dirty Dancing experience to the episode. Louise has seen Dirty Dancing many, many times. Alan saw it once when he was like eight or nine. Sarah watched it for the first time that morning. Did she like it? Have a listen and find out. What else did we talk about? Good question. We talked: a lot about how dreamy Patrick Swayze is. A lot. A whole lot. About being too young to watch Dirty Dancing, about our respective weddings and the kinds of dancing we got up to, about plastic surgery, about fictional summer camps, about music, about The Fountainhead, and many other things.

Alan Maguire and Ellen Tannam talk to writer Sarah Maria Griffin about a film that was important to her as a teenager, The Fifth Element. Questions asked and answered in this episode include: Is The Fifth Element a noir? Who would we cast in a gender-swapped The Fifth Element? Is Ruby Rhod a queer icon? Is Bruce Willis a hot dad? Could The Fifth Element be made today? Is it weird and cool that Ellen and Sarah had never met before this episode but have something very important in common? How did Sarah turn some of the issues with being a Woman Who Likes Sci-Fi on their head while writing her first novel Spare And Found Parts? Is there really any need to watch Breaking Bad or True Detective? How strong are Alan’s keratin levels?
