With Manchester, Boston, London and Belfast all happening this month, I look at what the taper period is, why it is important and the strange things that can happen during the taper! I also offer 7 ways to navigate through the taper period.

Professor Barry Smyth realised early on in the pandemic that readily available data could be used to tell us more about what was happening. He told Gráinne and Louise all about it.

Gráinne and Louise talk to Barry Smyth about his analysis of current Covid data and what he thinks it tells us about where we stand. You can find his blog on the subject here. Also on the pod is Charmaine Cruz, a PhD student who is working on an EPA funded project called iHabiMap: habitat mapping, monitoring and assessment using high-resolution imagery and Alessandra Mileo and Ken Brown talk about their research challenge, Decision Making.
Barry Smyth is a data scientist. Early on in the outbreak, he was among the first to realise the importance of looking closely at the number of excess deaths in the population, as revealed by website Rip.ie, to track the true toll of the virus. Since then, he has written about the nature of lockdown measures imposed across Europe, as revealed through data. Which countries are strictest, and what happens to the virus when people start moving about again? Barry talks to Deirdre Veldon about what the data reveals. Barry Smyth holds the Digital Chair of Computer Science in University College Dublin and is a Director of the Insight Centre for Data Analytics.

Jimmy Carbone’s talking about taverns on this week’s episode of Beer Sessions Radio. Christine Sismondo, author of America Walks into a Bar, is in the studio to offer s perspective on the importance of taverns as gathering places throughout history. Also in the studio are Ken Tirado of Killmeyer’s Old Bavarian Inn and Barry Smyth of Fraunces Tavern, two of the oldest taverns in New York City. Tune in to hear about some of the beers at Killmeyer’s and Fraunces Tavern, the importance of owner involvement in bars, the consequences of Prohibition in the United States, and why it’s important to keep old tavern traditions alive. This episode has been brought to you by GreatBrewers.com. “I don’t see the American Revolution happening without taverns.” “One interesting thing about Prohibition is that people are really invested in the story as something that created more problems than it solved. To some degree, it’s true, but if you look at the beginning of Prohibition, people really did drink less. For the first half of it, it really was successful at curbing people’s over-consumption.” — Christine Sismondo on Beer Sessions Radio “Taverns were the first libraries, the first art galleries, and the first cinemas.” — Barry Smyth
