A *cracking* @BookShowRTE this weekend. I'm talking to @maxjohnporter ahead of @CuirtFestival , the @ByrnesBooks Book Club ask Joseph O'Connor questions about Shadowplay, @CensoredPod talks to me about Ireland's banned books... Up in 15 minutes on @RTERadio1 .
My impossibly hard working other half is doing 200km for @FocusIreland this month along with her colleagues in Hayes McGrath Solicitors. Half way there and every little helps. I'd *hugely* appreciate any few quid you'd care to donate...
I have another journey back into the vocal, jazz and big band beauty of the 30s, 40s, 50s and more coming up on this weekend's #GoldLounge . All of these and a ton more starting in 10 on @RTEGold . Listen back later here -
Live on @RTEGold , as usual, until 1. Gorillaz, Talking Heads, Gilbert O'Sullivan, The Smiths, ABBA, Nina Simone and tons more. Fancy it? Here's where we are...
Read this. Here's what Irish booksellers have been doing to keep the show on the road...
Yes, this makes me feel *ancient*... FIFTEEN years ago tonight, @Glen_Hansard and @MarketaIrglova came in my @RTE2fm show to play, 2 days before The Swell Season album was released... Playing it next on @RTEGold ...
@Louise_Nealon - SnowflakeStarts as "girl from a farm goes to Trinity ", but slowly mutates into something hugely warm, human, complex and slightly magic. By the end I didn't want to leave any of the characters. A really impressive debut you'll be hearing a lot more about.

Our @TheVampsband #LATM15 comp thanks to @carlsberg on the way @RTE2fm . Just to note this one is over 18s only...
You know the way this has been blasted out of the headlines by everything from Trump to Covid to Brexit? This.
As seen on the Dual Carriageway outside UCD this morning. Anonymous letter makers, I salute you :-) #FatherTed
This. @VanJones68 on @CNN gives you the only 2 minutes of reaction to @JoeBiden becoming the next US President.
So I was almost killed at the weekend. My wife too. At roughly this place. Please read this short thread and share it, it might save someone else's life and if that comes of this then fair enough... (/thread)
Guys, my old school Drimnagh Castle is short of cash and looking for books to populate a new library. Can I get a RT?
