Taranoia Tara Flynn

Tara meets broadcaster Ola Majekodunmi in beautiful Dún Laoghaire. Ola reads a special, personal poem on the pier, written for Nollaig na mBan (Women’s Christmas), but no less pertinent for Brigid’s Day.

Tara reads a Christmas story she’s written. You know those ones that are on daytime telly with 70s soap stars in them? Like that, but with time travel.

Lynn Boylan talks about how communities have evolved and what we could change right now to be kinder to the climate, and to communities themselves.

Dr. de Sondy is Senior Lecturer in Contemporary Islam at UCC. They chat religion and belief, Scottishness and ‘Muslimness’, kilts, masculinity and how all injustice is related.

Tony Duffin from the Ana Liffey Drug Project talks Tara through what ALDP does with regard to dealing with addiction, and realistic concerns for safety versus NIMBYism.

What’s culture anyway? How do artists get started now? Giving the finger to snobbification. And some brand new spoken word/ poetry/ stories.
