Mute The TV are a four piece indie-rock band from Greystones, Co. Wicklow. The band consists of brothers Elliot and Dylan Crampton, Oscar Hackett and David Heffernan. They are an independent band who record, produce and mix their music at home which gives them plenty of time to procrastinate and argue (Dylan and Elliot), but it also keeps their costs low which allows them to release music more regularly. The band most recently headlined a raucous night in The Harbour Bar in Bray to a full house for a night of headbanging, singing and questionable dancing. Elliot and Dylan both have their own solo careers and between them have supported acts such as Aslan, Cathy Davey and Hazel O'Connor. The brothers have also made appearances on the RTE Late Late Show. Elliot most recently fulfilled his childhood dream of playing Dublin's Olympia Theatre where he played the drums for his friend who was opening for The Stunning. Oscar hosts a monthly pop-punk/emo night in Dublin in The Workmans Cellar. Takeaway and Telly is a jangly, hook laden, don't bore us get to the chorus, straight up pop song, but sprinkled with FUZZ! Albeit an uplifting, upbeat tune, it has a darker undercurrent of feeling alone and yearning for company. Lyrically it addresses feeling isolated and depressed, something brothers Elliot and Dylan have both had their battles with. Earlier in the year the band released two singles, “DNA” and “Depression Session”. We All Want Someone To Shout For described “DNA” as ‘a chugging bit of anthemic garage rock with a blitzing punk spirit'. While Where The Music Meets had this to say about Depression Session - ‘It's equal parts reflection and revelation, tucked inside some of the most approachable alt-rock Ireland's cooked up lately'. Depression Session was added to Spotify's editorial Hot New Bands and Fresh Finds UK & IE playlists and was used in an episode of UK TV show ‘Made In Chelsea'.

Building on Jack's love of birds and bird-feeding in his garden – new research shows that listening to birdsong may actually benefit your mental health and improve sadness and depression. Researchers took people with and without depression and then made them feel sad in the laboratory by playing movie clips. Sidenote – I read another study where they made people feel sad by playing a piece of Russian classical music slowed down to half speed and matched with sad faces! It's not uncommon in psyc studies to mess around with people's emotions and then make them feel better. Then taught people mindfulness breathing or gave them opportunity to listen to birdsong. Both of these treatments led to people feeling happier. Listening to birdsong helped peoples heart rates to return to normal functioning, indicating it was good for the body as well as the mind. What are the implications of this? Both are helpful at improving people's mood. Mindfulness requires more effort from a person and learning a skill so might be harder to get up and running in the first place. But of course once you've learnt it you can do it whenever you want – the ideal self-help tool. Listening to birdsong requires much less effort on behalf of someone – you just lie back and do it! This might be particularly useful for someone who is quite down and has little energy or motivation to do much. Shows how our emotional state can be changed both intentionally and on-purpose, and just automatically Also birdsong is free and possibly easily available – but you do need to be near some trees. This could have implications for things like urban design and building green spaces near and around new housing developments. This builds on a growing amount of research showing the benefits of nature-based interventions for improving mental health. In the UK these are called “green prescriptions” – things like gardening and going fishing – like the UK TV show “Mortimer and Whitehouse - Gone Fishing”. Interestingly, there was a recent NZ study that showed fishing was really helpful in reducing depression, psyc distress, and anxiety Media release: World's largest angling mental health study reveals remarkable benefits - Fish & Game So get out there – feed the birds and then listen to them sing. Garden or go fishing. It's good for the mind as well as the body! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stacy and Eric kick things off trying to figure out a smoother transition into the show besides “How you doin?” like Joey from Friends. Somehow that leads to conversation about Seinfeld episodes that touch on the infamous J. Peterman catalog and the evolution from collecting CDs to streaming favorite shows on demand now. Eric reports in from his European travels, sharing highlights from his multi-city trip—sightseeing, catching shows, and wondering if he'll spot the Northern Lights in Iceland. Stacy questions Eric about his radio career beginning in Alaska, he goes on to describe the unique seasons and travel quirks of living in Juneau/Ketchikan. Cultural Blindspots return as Eric admits he's never seen Forrest Gump, while Stacy suggests a movie night like their previous Godfather viewing. Eric reviews "The Paper" (an Office spin-off), shares his fascination with "Top of the Pops," and muses about quirky UK TV culture. Meanwhile, Stacy recounts her first trip to Applebee's, a different kind of Cultural Blindspot, and their “studly” pretzels. The hosts then dive into “The Right Way” to tackle everyday household routines from dishwasher loading, toilet paper orientation, sandwich cutting, to folding socks. Eric and Stacy compare their habits, debating both sides of each topic. Tune in for travel tales, pop culture deep-dives, and playful domestic debates!

Ten years ago today (September 10th) Hunted first aired on C4. Launched initially as a social experiment, what followed became ten years of high octane chases as the show evolved into the biggest game of hide and seek on UK TV.

For TV broadcasters, social marketing has to do more than just educate or entertain – it has to convince audiences to get *off* their phones and sit down to watch. Sharing the solution to that challenge is Erina Jones, director of social media and social AVOD at UKTV, part of the award-winning BBC Studios. Erina delves into why consolidating UKTV's owned channels made for a stronger brand, the secret to a perfect TV show cutdown for social, and how data helps the team convert passionate communities into loyal brand fans.  Got a question or a suggestion for the SocialMinds podcast?

One binge almost cost actor John Pickard everything — his relationship, his child, and his future.WATCH OR LISTEN TO THE FULL INTERVIEW ON Youtube - https://bit.ly/49LHNNOApple - https://apple.co/3PajZvQSpotify - https://bit.ly/42S8puBIn this next quick thought, we explore how a single night of heavy drinking and drug use became the turning point. What started as “just a night out” spiralled into a wake-up call that forced him to confront the dangerous patterns he thought he had left behind. We talk openly about the hidden risks of binge drinking and drugging, the shame and guilt that follow, and how quickly old habits can resurface when you're pulled back into the wrong environments. This clip is about breaking destructive cycles before they destroy the people and the life you love.It's also a candid look at the reality of addiction that doesn't fit the stereotypes — the kind that hides behind months of being “fine” before one night derails everything. We discuss the mental and physical crash that follows a binge, the role of daily routines in recovery, and the challenge of redefining what normal looks like when drinking and drug use have been part of your life since childhood.If you've ever convinced yourself “it's just one night” or seen someone you care about repeat the same cycle, this conversation will make you think twice. About the “THOUGHT” series -Every other Monday at 5 PM, I'll bring you a quick ‘thought'—a powerful moment from previous episodes designed to kickstart your week with insight, motivation, and connection.

YouTube last week officially ousted the UK’s biggest commercial broadcaster ITV as the video platform now second only to the BBC in audience size, according to the tech and media regulator Ofcom. YouTube’s ad take is pumping everywhere – it raked $9.8bn in the June quarter, according to its latest earnings results – up 13% year-on-year. YouTube has been increasingly vocal on its ambition to target legacy broadcasters for bigger brand budgets and recast TV as swerving rapidly to the creator economy. Last week UK broadcasters lobbed a counterstrike, attempting to demonstrate that advertisers needed clearer, comparable reporting of YouTube with TV audiences if it wants to take TV’s revenues. To date, YouTube has vigorously resisted joining any audience measurement system around the world if not on its terms and definitions - that position has not hurt its growth trajectory as advertisers large and small buy YouTube’s market narrative of being different. If there was any doubt YouTube sees itself as reframing TV to its likeness – broadcasters and global streamers are equally old-world in its eyes – the user generated content platform last week pulled its involvement with the UK TV and streaming body BARB Audiences. To many observers, the timing was not random. Last week also saw BARB and its audience measurement partner Kantar release a world-first initiative reporting YouTube’s audiences at a channel level on connected TVs in the same way for broadcasters and streamers. The first week’s numbers from BARB and Kantar, showed YouTube’s top 200 channels dominated by content for kids aged under 5 like Peppa Pig, and lots of music. YouTube’s audience reach numbers by channel, central to how TV and streaming services win advertising contracts – were tiny. But does any of this matter? Do brands and advertisers care? The Future of TV Forum’s Justin Lebbon and global CEO of market mix modelling firm Mutinex, Henry Innis, duke out YouTube’s revenue romp, its surging adloads and a likely hurricane for traditional media-funded audience reporting – Innis argues business outcome-based audience measurement is set to shake-up decades of norms.

Is God a story we've just told ourselves to satisfy our own desires?   Comedian and author David Baddiel knows God doesn't exist, but wishes he did. As Baddiel wrestles with his understanding of God and spirituality as a Jewish atheist, his bold thesis uncovers how religion services the deepest needs of humanity.  This session is in conversation with Simon Longstaff and is the inaugural John Caldon Provocation, an annual event at FODI to honour the legacy of businessman John Caldon and his special brand of curiosity. David Baddiel is an accomplished comedian, author, screenwriter and television presenter. He began his career as writer and star of numerous hit UK TV comedy shows. Also an award-winning author, David has written ten hugely successful children's books, alongside four critically-acclaimed novels, and in 2021 he released the Sunday Times Politics Book of The Year – his polemic Jews Don't Count, which has changed the whole conversation around modern identity politics and antisemitism. David followed the book with a TV documentary on the subject that aired in 2022. David's most recent book, The God Desire, was released in 2023 and explores his keen desire to believe in a deity and why this very desperation to believe proves his atheism correct. Simon Longstaff began his working life studying law in Sydney and teaching in Tasmania, later pursuing postgraduate studies as a Member of Magdalene College, Cambridge. In 1991, Simon commenced his work as the first Executive Director of The Ethics Centre, a role he continues today. Simon is an Adjunct Professor of the Australian Graduate School of Management at UNSW Sydney, a Fellow of CPA Australia, the Royal Society of NSW and the Australian Risk Policy Institute.

Glen Kyne joins Duncan Greive on The Fold to discuss a clutch of curiously under-covered stories which suggest major changes coming to streaming entertainment and news publishing. There's Netflix's massive deal with France's biggest broadcaster to host its live channels and a vast library of content, along with a group of UK TV companies banding together to sell ads across their networks. Then there is the continual encroachment of AI into platforms, including the sharp rise on both Spotify and YouTube – along with the chance of a fightback, in Cloudflare's desire to create a “pay-per-crawl” model.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 30ú lá de mí Bealtaine, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1964 bhí an dul chun cinn mall de na cainteanna sa Bhruiséil. I 1975 bhí an rialtas cúisithe an oíche roimhe go raibh siad ag tabhairt neamhaird ar 52 míle daltaí a bhí chun an scoil a chríochnú. I 1964 d'oscail an tAire Oideachas Páirc Charbhán Ryan's I gCill Chaoi an tseachtain sin. I 1975 bhí an lán ceoltóirí in Inis an tseachtain sin ó gach áit in Éirinn agus daoine a raibh grá acu do cheol Éireannach. Sin B*Witched le C'Est La Vie – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1998 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1964 chuaigh The Beatles chuig uimhir a haon sna cairteacha I Meiriceá lena amhrán Love Me Do. Bhí sé a cheathrú uimhir a haon I cúig mhí. An leagan a tháinig amach I Meiriceá bhí Andy White ag seinm na druma agus bhí Ringo ar an tambóirín agus an leagan a tháinig amach sa Bhreatain bhí Ringo Starr ag seinm na druma. I 1996 chuaigh Alan Whitaker ó Penzance ar Mastermind agus bhí a ábhar speisialta The Sex Pistols. Chuaigh sé chuig an bhabhta leathcheannais de bharr gur d'fhreagair sé 18 gceist cheart. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Tom Morello I Meiriceá I 1964 agus rugadh amhránaí agus aisteoir Idina Menzel I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1971 agus seo chuid de amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh an tseachtain seo chugainn le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 30th of May, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1964: the council of ministers made slow progress in brussels talks. 1975: the gov was accused last night of turning its back on next months 52,000 school leavers. 1964: Ryans caravan park in kilkee was officially opened by the minister of Education on thursday evening. 1975: ennis played host to most of irelands musicians and all those who loved irish music over the previous weekend. That was B*witched with C'Est La Vie – the biggest song on this day in 1998 Onto music news on this day In 1964 The Beatles went to No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Love Me Do', the group's fourth US No.1 in five months. The version released in America had Andy White playing drums while Ringo played the tambourine. The British single was a take on which Ringo Starr played the drums. 1996 Alan Whitaker from Penzance appeared on the UK TV quiz show Mastermind, his specialist subject being the Sex Pistols. He won a place in the semi-final of the show answering all but one of the 18 questions correctly And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – Tom Morello was born in America in 1964 and singer Idina Menzel was born in America on this day in 1971 and this is one of her songs. I'll be back with you next week with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

On this episode of TV Tortured Together, hosts Jacob and Laura trade sweet tea for dry wit as they dive headfirst into the awkward brilliance of the British Office. They kick things off with a detour into the jailhouse drama of 60 Days In(because what pairs better with corporate misery than prison?), then launch into a hilarious deep-dive comparing British and American humor — spoiler: one's dry and cringe, the other's loud and cringe. From the infamous stapler-in-jelly incident to the soul-crushing downsizing memo, they unpack iconic moments that make you laugh and wince in equal measure. They dissect the uncomfortable charm of David Brent, the bromantic dysfunction of David and Gareth, and why Tim's torment of Gareth makes Jim look like a gentle prank fairy. Add in a theme song that's somehow both memorable and meaningless, and you've got an office tour that's painfully relatable, awkwardly hilarious, and—thankfully—only three seasons long.Checkout the new Hopecast website:https://thehopecastnetwork.com/Buy Merch here:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-hopecast-network-swag/This show is brought to you by The Hopecast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/hopecastnetwork/
