Jo Jo Dullard - Part 1

On a cold and windy Thursday evening, in November 1995, 21-year-old Jojo Dullard vanished without a trace while making her way home from Dublin to her flat in Callan, Co. Kilkenny. Jojo had recently gotten a new job that she was due to start the day after her disappearance. But she never started her new job. She never got the chance to pursue her dreams. Jojo was murdered - possibly the very same night she went missing, almost 31 years ago.

Maul mania, Prendergast's form, and Champions Cup is back

Neil Treacy is joined by Ian Keatley and former Leinster and Connacht centre Tom Daly on this week's RTÉ Rugby podcast, as we break down another mixed week for the Irish provinces in the BKT United Rugby Championship. Daly discusses his decision to retire from rugby this summer, after finishing his career with Lansdowne last season. With maul tries on the up and up in the first few weeks of the season, we ask whether it's becoming too easy to score through that route now that officials have clamped down on defence. The podcast breaks down an impressive performance from Sam Prendergast in Leinster's 29-5 win against Cardiff last week, as well as a back and forth contest in Belfast between Ulster and Munster. With Munster set to face Racing 92 in the opening round of the Investec Champions Cup, Keatley discusses the legacy of his former head coach Anthony Foley, 10 years on from his death. We also look at the challenge facing Connacht this season as they juggle URC and Champions Cup commitments. And we finish by considering what impact the tweaks to the bonus-points system will have in this season's Champions Cup.

Naomi Klein - “We’ll all be living in the apocalypse of the tech bros’ creation, if we’re not careful”

Author and global thinker Naomi Klein has a knack for capturing the zeitgeist in her previous books like ‘No Logo’, ‘The Shock Doctrine’ and ‘Doppelganger’. Her new book is ‘End Times Fascism: And the Fight for the Living World’ in which she suggests powerful elites are weaponising modern crises to build private escape routes for themselves while urging everyday people to reject doom and collectively defend the living world.
