    Indo Politics: Airbnb U-turns, rent resets and enter… The Housing Tsar

    The Government has pushed through major rent reforms, softened its Airbnb crackdown and appointed a brand new housing supremo... all in one week. On this episode of Indo Politics, Tabitha Monahan and Conal Thomas unpack what the rent reset really means for tenants, why some towns are dodging the Airbnb squeeze, and whether the new housing tsar can actually speed up supply, or if it’s just another layer of bureaucracy.

    Rex Ryan’s ‘The Monk’: An ordinary decent criminal rebrand?

    Ten years on from the Regency Hotel shooting, a one-man play about Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch is returning to the stage in the Ambassador Theatre after last year’s sold-out run. Written and performed by Rex Ryan, son of the late broadcaster Gerry Ryan, the show charts the life of one of Ireland’s most infamous and divisive figures. The Monk’s name is etched into the public consciousness through an unprecedented gangland feud that reshaped the country’s criminal landscape. So, does putting his story onstage risk humanising, even glamorising, a violent chapter in recent Irish history? ­ Host: Tessa Fleming, Guest: Rex Ryan See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Extra: Alan Shatter could sue Social Democrats TD Gary Gannon over false Epstein claim

    Former justice minister Alan Shatter said he has been the target of a vicious and antisemitic smear campaign since Social Democrats justice spokesman Gary Gannon put up a social media post that linked him with Jeffrey Epstein. Mr Shatter, who was Fine Gael’s justice minister from 2011 to 2014, said he has twice written to Mr Gannon and Social Democrats leader Holly Cairns in the last week seeking the withdrawal of false claims that he met Epstein while in office. It is understood Mr Shatter is considering taking defamation action against Dublin Central TD Mr ­Gannon. Social Democrats leader Holly Cairns declined to comment on the issue on Sunday. Asked whether Mr Shatter will be receiving an apology from she or Mr Gannon, she told RTÉ's The Week in Politics: "This is potentially a legal matter so I can't comment on this." Mr Gannon was also contacted for comment Today on this Indo Daily Extra, Tabitha Monahan is joined by The Sunday Independent’s Mark Tighe, to look at how a misinterpreted document, could now turn into a political and possible legal controversy See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Epstein files: Keir Starmer on the brink, and Irish connections explored

    It’s been a rough week for UK prime minister Keir Starmer. First, he offered a direct apology to the victims of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking network while declaring that “none of us knew the depth and darkness” of the relationship between Epstein and former British ambassador to the US, Peter Mandelson. Then came the resignations of Morgan McSweeney and Tim Allan. Can Mr Starmer hold onto his job? Meanwhile, the latest tranche of Epstein files contained references of a distinctly Irish nature – what are they, and what conclusions can we draw from them? ­ Host: Tabitha Monahan Guests: Enda Brady and Kim Bielenberg See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    How Dunnes Stores won Ireland’s shopping war 

    Ireland’s high street – or main street if you prefer – has seen quite the evolution over the past hundred-odd years. Today, it is an arena of mixed fortunes. On one hand, the recent liquidation announcement of EuroGiant has thrown a popular discount chain’s future into question. On the other, Dunnes Stores is just edging out Tesco as Ireland’s most popular shopping store. Who gets the credit for such success? And what does it all mean for you, the valued consumer?
