But it's our attempt to get behind the day-to-day reporting of the various machinations of what's happening in the US and try to understand it by examining the things that have shaped the worldview of the two most influential people on the planet right now. No, we don't mean The Mad King in the Oval Office. We mean Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. And why it's time to stop being surprised about what happens next.IntroPart IBut we take a break from the American shitshow to focus on something actually important, with our friend Tom Raftery - a transplanted Corkonian living near Seville since 2008. He and his family just lived through the most significant European blackout in decades. And because Tom is a veteran energy and climate analyst, and host of Climate Confident, he can offer a more-than-bystander account of what he was seeing, why he thinks it happened, and what might be done about it in future.Climate Impact Flagship SummitAnd if you're in the UK next week, and you can stretch to it, you should check out the Climate Impact summit on 7 May at the Royal Institution in London.

In this episode we welcome revered High Llamas leader (and arranger to the hip and the mighty) Sean O'Hagan to Hammersmith and ask him about his life and times from Microdisney to new album Hey Panda. We hear about Sean's Luton childhood, his family's move back to Ireland, and his 1980 encounter with the late Cathal Coughlan — the Corkonian with whom he formed the brave and brilliant Microdisney. Their path through '80s pop via Rough Trade and Virgin, and their eventual unravelling at the end of the decade, is discussed with reference to the new BBC documentary The Clock Comes Down the Stairs. The birth of the High Llamas involves RBP's own Mark Pringle, who recalls his production work on the 1992 EP Apricots (a.k.a. Santa Barbara). The influence of Brian Wilson on the sound and aesthetic of 1994's Gideon Gaye and 1996's Hawaii leads to Sean's reminiscences of meeting the Beach Boys and (almost) producing them. A side story involves his amusing memories of backing another cult L.A. genius, Love's Arthur Lee, in London. After we've heard clips from Mike Quigley's 1969 audio interview with Carl Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine and Bruce Johnston, we return to the arc of the Llamas' story and ask Sean about the influence of contemporary R&B on the Llamas' Hey Panda. Finally, Mark and Jasper talk us out with quotes from the pieces they've most enjoyed adding to the RBP library over the preceding fortnight. Many thanks to special guest Sean O'Hagan. The High Llamas new album, Hey Panda, is out now; visit highllamas.com or your local record shop to get your hands on it. Pieces discussed: The High Llamas: You Can Call Me Alpaca, The High Llamas: Lo-fi Heaven, The High Llamas: A Different Breed, An Improbable History: Microdisney Interviewed, The Beach Boys audio, Ted Nugent Unleashes His Little Ball of Fire, Leonard Bernstein: Lenny's song and dance in Vienna, Lounging with Mr Williams, So why exactly does David Gray have this effect on women? and Terence Trent D'Arby: Neither Fish Nor Flesh.

Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack A few months ago we spoke with schoolteacher, podcaster and sound out Corkonian, Padraig Wilson McCarthy, about the fact that the rents he was seeing in Dublin were more than his monthly salary. Lots of you said that we needed to get him back on. So here he is. We talk about Pride as protest and not corporate crap, the horrifying rise of homophobic hate crimes, the shitty Dublin rental market and how Padraig is once again facing a stint as a couch surfer. But there's lots of laughs as well, I promise.

Dr. Anthony O'Connor is not just a front line hero, he is also a person who talks sense and loves the GAA. The Corkonian tells of his pride in the role the GAA played and plays in times of crises while also noting where it can improve. Why should sorry not be the hardest word to say? Because, as he says, we live in completely unprecedented times and politicians and leaders need to be strong enough, and media patient enough, to know things can change in a hurry. And what power of three could see Cork win 2, or even 4? Plus a tribute to a man who transcends sporting and cultural barriers in Ireland, who gave a nation pride in the flag and smiles on faces.

Podcasting from Cork Ireland You hear Paul O'Mahony & Roger Overall talking about "I know enough to be dangerous". Dangerous companies, perilous companies ... Japanese chef preparing fugu fish ... you can die if the fish isn't prepared properly ... and not by trial & error. If you want to be genuinely attractive in business - you can't do what some You Tubers do... You can't promise and keep putting off the delivery of what you've promised. Paul is in a team preparing a Conference for Toastmasters in District 71 - he's the marketing person on the team. (11-13 May 2018). Roger asks "What is your key concern?" (1) Making it genuinely attractive, or (2) Being overwhelmed ... Paul dramatises the work. He has to remember "everything is not dependent on me". Paul talks about Toastmasters. Roger highlights Cork as the best place in Cork - much more attractive than not-Cork. "With an accent like your's Roger - you can't ever become a Corkonian". _________________________ At last, Paul & Roger talk Apple: A success story ... superb customer service from a guy in Lisbon... Cork to Dublin, cross city, on to Belfast - to the only Apple Store on the island. 15 minutes about great customer service by Apple ... After that Roger contrasts the way Apple have behaved so secretively in another area ... We all need holidays - Paul even got a recommendation from the guy who helped him (on phone for about six hours over three days). Contact Paul & Roger on http://www.showandtellcommunications.net

ISPod Golden Green is a focus on an Irish album, written and recorded by one of the participating writers in the Irish Songwriters Podcast. Today's episode opens the lid on "You Can't Buy Back Your Life" by Corkonian performaing songwriter, Bill Coleman. A 360 degree artistic project, this album marks a seminal moment in the life of its writer, written and recorded in the days of the last or latest economic crash in Ireland. In its conception and execution, its vision and with hindsight, it's a fascinating document of a changing artist in a changing world. It is also poignant that I upload this episode, saddened by the news of Irish Songwriter, Dolores O'Riordan. In her life, though she achieved international acclaim, wealth and prosperity and perceived success, she never found peace. I guess the message here is that life is short, so do what you love doing, today. The songs included in today's ISPod Golden Green are "Offer Up The Hope" "I Wan't You To Know" "False North" "Church Of Second Chances" and "Am I Still Your No.1" YCBBYL Cover design : https://youtu.be/4TvfRV98FX4 Bill Coleman online: http://www.glitchcassidy.com/ www.ispod.ie
