On this week programme John and Shane take a visit back into the archive to an interview we did in 2015 with a very special guest, the Irish writer Alice Taylor. Alice spoke to us then about her reflections on memory and grief - important considerations during the month of November for many people. Reflections on memory & grief: An Interview with Alice TaylorNovember can be a hard month for many people as we recall the memory of our dead. In the Roman Catholic tradition it is the month of the Holy Soul's. And it seems to be an appropriate time to reflect and pray for our dead as the year and seasons move towards the death of winter.But coping with death and grief can be difficult and on this weeks programme we share an interview with Alice Taylor to reflect on memory and dealing with grief especially after writing her book As time stood still.Alice Taylor lives in the village of Innishannon in County Cork, in a house attached to the local supermarket and post office.

Ellen Coyne and Naomi O'Leary join Pat Leahy to look back on the week in politics:· In the wake of Catherine Connolly's emphatic presidential election win, could there now be a legitimate prospect of a left-wing government arising from the next general election? · With anger still simmering in Fianna Fáil's ranks after a disastrous presidential campaign, is party leader Micheál Martin looking at a leadership challenge down the line? Speaking on RTÉ Radio 1 this week, the Taoiseach criticised “unacceptable” and “hurtful” comments about him from Fianna Fáil rebels like fellow Cork TD James O'Connor. · The coalition partners are becoming more openly critical of immigration. Perhaps they are now following the example of other European countries? · And Naomi O'Leary discusses the Dutch political scene with reports suggesting the centrist D66 party caused a big upset in Dutch elections this week.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· Mary ‘Mae' McGee who successfully fought the ban on contraception in Ireland, and Newton Emerson on how Fine Gael's anti-British rhetoric came back to bite Heather Humphreys.

Colm was born and raised in Clondalkin, Dublin, and attended Naíonra Chrónáin, Scoil Chrónáin & Coláiste Chillian. Colm's love for the language grew after spending time in East Timor, teaching English. East Timor is a multilingual country and experiencing that got him asking why we make such a song and dance about bilingualism in Ireland! When he came home he studied communications and worked with the Irish language newspapers Lá and Gaelscéal. He now works in the non-profit  sector. While he was working in journalism he started writing about myths we often hear about the Irish language, that it's a dead language, etc. He later developed that into a Mythbusting campaign with Conradh na Gaeilge which has included a TedX Talk and other public talks, articles in the Irish Times and Journal.ie, interviews on Raidió na Gaeltachta, Raidió na Life, Raidió Fáilte, RTÉ Radio 1 and BBC Radio and YouTube videos. He believes these myths have a real, negative effect on the Irish language and that is the main reason for the campaign. Deconstructing Myths about the Irish Language | Colm Ó Broin | TEDxBallyroanLibrary

Ellen Coyne and Harry McGee join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics: · With Jim Gavin gone, the presidential election is now a two-horse race between Catherine Connolly and Heather Humphreys, and a more combative one at that as the third live debate on Thursday on RTÉ Radio's Drivetime will attest. Is Heather Humphreys trying to appeal to voters on the left who haven't made their mind up about Connolly yet? · As the timetable of who knew what and when becomes apparent in the Jim Gavin controversy, could those running his campaign have done anything to dampen the impact of the revelation around an unpaid debt to a former tenant from Gavin's time as a landlord in 2009? And why did Gavin go ahead and participate in RTÉ's televised debate last Sunday when the game was already effectively up? · And will Wednesday's marathon Fianna Fáil party meeting provide enough catharsis for a cohort within the party questioning Micheál Martin's leadership in the wake of the Jim Gavin fiasco? Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· Manchán Magan remembered, Japan's Iron Lady, and Ray D'Arcy leaves RTÉ. Hosted on Acast.

Evelyn O'Rourke, Arts and Media Correspondent, reports on Newstalk presenter Kieran Cuddihy's departure from the commercial station to join rival broadcaster RTE.

It's been a dramatic few days in Ireland's biggest radio stations, RTÉ and Newstalk. On Thursday afternoon, it was announced Ray D'Arcy was gone from RTÉ Radio 1 after 11 years, without saying goodbye to his listeners. In a statement he said he was “hugely disappointed” in how management handled his departure. Just hours later, across the city, Newstalk staff were told host of the Hard Shoulder Kieran Cuddihy was leaving the station for RTE. And now we know after months of speculation that he will pick up the live line mantle. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Founder-inspired by Netflix, powered by AI, and tested with lean startup tactics - Dublin's Sunday afternoon clubbing experiment finds its crowd. On Sunday 21st September, Dublin entrepreneur Saoirse Sheridan hosted her pilot Dance Space event at Wigwam, Dublin 1, with Reveller Music on the decks - a Sunday afternoon, alcohol-free clubbing experience. Around 20 people attended, 12 tickets were sold (€205 gross sales), and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with participants praising the atmosphere, the music, and the novelty of a daytime, booze-free dance floor. Dance Space Pilot in Dublin The spark for Dance Space came earlier this summer when Sheridan listened to Netflix founder Marc Randolph on The Diary of a CEO podcast discussing the power of rapid idea validation. "That really resonated - I had a personal problem: I love the clubbing vibe but don't want late nights or alcohol. Using lean startup thinking, I realized I could test the idea quickly, cheaply, and see if anyone else felt the same," Sheridan explains. The pilot investment To test the idea properly, Sheridan invested about €1,500 upfront in branding, a simple website, and promotion - the basics needed to get the first event off the ground. The pilot itself brought in €205 in ticket sales, with around 20 people dancing on the day. "Yes, it cost me money, but the real goal wasn't profit on the first night. The point was validation: would people actually come, enjoy it, and want more? And the answer, based on the energy in the room, was a definite yes." Fast learning with AI Sheridan leaned on AI tools throughout the process - from drafting the website to preparing event communications. Working with three interns, she was able to move from idea to launch in just a few months. After the pilot, she is now using ChatGPT to review ticketing data and customer feedback in preparation for the next event on 19th October. "It's all about test, learn, and pivot. AI can speed things up, but it's the human response in the room that tells you whether you're onto something," she notes. National attention Ahead of the pilot, Sheridan was interviewed on RTÉ Radio 1's Ray D'Arcy Show, which helped spread the word nationally and brought fresh attention to the idea. Bigger picture: cultural shifts The pilot reflects broader changes in Ireland's social habits. Alcohol consumption has fallen by 30% in the last two decades, and the sober-curious movement is growing, particularly among Gen Z. Wellness is no longer confined to gyms or yoga studios - people are looking for social spaces that fit with healthier lifestyles and Monday morning commitments. Sheridan says Dance Space is part of that bigger picture, but she is also realistic: "For me, this doesn't have to turn into a huge venture to be worthwhile. The real win is testing the idea, seeing people enjoy themselves, and learning from it. That in itself has been very rewarding." Balancing projects At the same time, Sheridan remains fully committed to her main venture, Elder Home Share, a social enterprise matching older people with housemates for support and companionship. Dance Space, she says, is a passion project and a live case study in rapid validation. "This has been a great learning experience. Even if it doesn't become a big long-term project, proving an idea quickly and seeing people enjoy it has been worthwhile in itself," she reflects. Founder's takeaway Dance Space represents not only a new addition to Ireland's wellness scene but also an example of how entrepreneurial thinking and AI tools can lower the barriers to testing ideas fast. Sheridan laughs: "I had a good dance myself, was home for my Sunday dinner, and in bed by 9pm - just the way I like it." About the founder: Saoirse Sheridan is the founder of Elder Home Share, a Dublin-based social enterprise that matches older people with compatible housemates for companionship and support. Dance Space is her latest side project, applying lean startup and AI-driv...

Ved hjælp af en computer og en gratis prøve fra en amerikansk datamægler er det lykkedes RADIO IIII at identificere adskillige folk, der færdes i det danske efterretningsmiljø. FE og PET oplyser ellers ikke, hvem de har ansat – og den seneste afgørelse i sagen om Ahmed Samsam viser, at der skal en dom fra Højesteret til før, at tjenesterne vil bekræfte, hvem de har på lønningslisten. Men hvis vores journalister kan finde frem til danske efterretningsmedarbejde uden at betale en krone for informationen, hvorfor skulle andre - eventuelt med onde hensigter - så ikke kunne præcis det samme? Journalist på RADIO IIII, Andreas Wentoft, udlægger sagen. Værter: Mathias Wissing og Peter Marstal.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
