What with the sentencing of the Irishmen responsible for the deaths of 39 Vietnamese immigrants; the appalling travesty of the Mother & Baby homes report; and the country's bumbling, greed-centric approach to COVID19 and vaccinations...the Don and Seaniebee ask whether there's ever been a worse time to be ashamed of being from Ireland. They also give Donald Trump a fond fare-thee-well and The Don reaches number 2 in her 'Best of' countdown. *********************** GEORGE BOYLE HAS A PINT WITH SEANIEBEE To celebrate the somewhat surprising milestone of the fiftieth episode, Seaniebee is joined on the pod today by his architect sister, George, who shares the story behind the launch of The Fumbally Exchange (a not-for-profit movement of creative and innovative professionals who share co-working spaces). Like many others in the country, George and her husband lost their jobs during the Irish economic meltdown. What follows is an inspiring tale about a bunch of folks pulling themselves up by the bootstraps, overcoming red tape, government apathy and general crap and adversity to create a shining beacon of what can be achieved when we collectively put our minds to it.
