**Banter with Jim Carroll ft With Relish live at Beatyard** This weeks offering is thanks to the wonderful Banter podcast by Jim Carroll, who very kindly asked Harry and Aoife to speak about their With Relish endeavours so far in front of a live audience as part of Beatyard 2018.  If you have ever wanted to find out a little more about Harry and Aoife’s culinary background, how the podcast came about and what lies ahead for With Relish, then this should answer most of those questions.  Make sure to listen in to the fantastic bank of episodes Jim has recorded since beginning way back in the Stone Age of podcasting (2009). Since then they have covered such topics as books, food, campaigning, photography, mindfulness, farming, Higgs boson, housing, nudge theory, innovation, football, politics, TV, climate change, cycling, new businesses, masculinity, craft beers, running, music festivals, David Bowie, technology, radio, Madonna and many many more.  [http://thisisbanter.com/](http://thisisbanter.com/)

When talk turns to the health of Ireland's media, national publications and websites generally sop up much of the attention. But how are local and regional publications faring? Are we headed the same way as in the United Kingdom, where the number of regional journalists has halved in recent years? Or is the landscape sturdier here? And what, if anything, needs to change in the way we fund public interest local news? At one of the recent Banter talks at the Beatyard festival in Dún Laoghaire on 4 August, we got a panel together to talk about just that – and more. Hosted by Lois Kapila (Dublin Inquirer), the line-up included David Burke (editor, Tuam Herald), David Lynch (editor, Dundalk Democrat), and Stephanie Costello (Centre for Critical Media Literacy, DIT). 

Here’s another one from our trip to The Beatyard in Dun Laoghaire last summer, a festival we’ll be revisiting in August. Prepare for Danny Wang talking life and music past, present and future in what was one of the best conversations we’ve ever had at Banter.

Seeing as we’ll be back at The Beatyard festival later this summer, here’s one from last year’s adventures by the sea in Dun Laoghaire. It’s always great to have photographers in the mix at Banter because great snappers always have great tales to tell when they put the camera down. We were joined by storied London hip-hop photographer Eddie Otchere, a man with a who’s who portfolio of hip-hop and urban music culture kingpins and queenpins to his credit and lots to say about his work.

One of the biggest crowds we’ve had at Banter in ages was the one that showed up to hear Blindboy Boatclub from The Rubberbandits talk about this, that and the other during the Beatyard festival in Dun Laoghaire. Here’s a conversation about art, politics, surreality, Limerick, sex, mental health, hip-hop, fish fingers, religion, fashion and other matters.

For Banter 101, we’ve another legend in the bag and it’s someone that anyone who has lived or worked in Dublin will need no introduction to: say hello to Mattress Mick. We brought the don of bedding to our stage at the Beatyard festival in Dun Laoghaire over the summer and he gave us a masterclass in the art of selling and a deep dive into his own lifestory. He also showed he was a generous soul and gave away a mattress to one lucky person in the audience.

We promised you a legend for our one hundredth Bantercast and we think we’ve delivered. There is only one George Clinton and we’d the privilege to talk to the great man at the Beatyard festival this summer. Here’s George in conversation in a packed room – there’s a lot of whooping and hollering in the background because people couldn’t believe he turned up – about his life on and off the mothership.

Aisling, Caoilian, and Eoghan talk about music streaming and Neil Young's decision to pull (nearly) all his music from streaming sites. Also on the agenda is a big weekend of music festivals, with Castlepalooza, the Beatyard and Indiependence all taking place over the coming days. Then Eoghan tests Aisling and Caoilian's knowledge of 'Take Me To Church', before they discuss the situation around Tyler, the Creator vs Collective Shout
