Wednesday 8 April - Fuel Standoff at Home, Ceasefire Strain Abroad

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 22:37:33 GMT

Fuel protests are intensifying across Ireland, with blockades entering a second day and pressure mounting on Government to intervene.

Protesters insist they will not move without direct talks, as the Minister for Justice claimed that an “unelected group” is disrupting the country.

Meanwhile, tensions ease slightly in the Middle East. US President Donald Trump has pulled back, with Iran agreeing to allow safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz for two weeks as a ceasefire begins. But uncertainty remains, with Israel saying it has halted attacks on Iran while continuing strikes in Lebanon.

Tuesday 7 April - Convoys And Consequences: Fuel Protests Grip Ireland

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 22:29:58 GMT

Fuel protests have caused disruption across Ireland, with convoys from multiple counties slowing key routes into Dublin amid growing anger over rising costs.

While major representative groups are not formally involved, the pressure from farmers, hauliers and contractors is clear - and questions are mounting over whether the government will be forced to act.

Could fuel rationing become a reality - and if so, who gets priority?

Meanwhile, attention shifts to the Middle East, where tensions are escalating.

Iran is under pressure to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and accept a US-backed ceasefire deal.

Wednesday, 11th March - Oil Crisis And Oval Office Politics: How Exposed Is Ireland?

Wed, 11 Mar 2026 23:04:17 GMT

The International Energy Agency has agreed the largest release of oil reserves in history, while the EU is considering measures to subsidise gas prices. Yet oil continues to climb as the Strait of Hormuz remains blocked and Tehran threatens prices of up to $200 a barrel while targeting tankers. So how bad could the economic fallout become - and should the government cut energy taxes and suspend the carbon tax to protect Irish consumers?

Plus, as the Taoiseach prepares to travel to Washington, reports suggest he is bringing a promise of $6.1 billion in investment to the Oval Office. But with tensions escalating globally, could Ireland’s foreign direct investment advantage face new risks?

The country’s biggest landlord has told investors they’ll be able to raise rents by up to 25%, saying the regulatory landscape in Ireland has changed “for the better” ahead of new tenancy rules taking effect this weekend. The Taoiseach has defended the reforms — but what does it mean for renters?

Wednesday 4 February - X A No Show At The Oireachtas as Pressure Grows to Rein In Social Media

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 23:35:46 GMT

X was a notable no-show as executives from major social media platforms faced tough questioning before the Oireachtas Media Committee.

John Lee is joined by Fianna Fáil TD Seán Fleming, Sinn Féin TD Louise O’Reilly, and Elaine Burke, host of the For Tech’s Sake podcast, to debate political accountability, regulation and the power of global platforms.

The discussion then turns to growing momentum across Europe for an under-16s social media ban, as the European Commission warns Spain that new national rules on digital platforms may breach the EU’s Digital Services Act. Olga Cronin, Senior Policy Officer with the Irish Council for Civil Liberties, joins the panel.

Finally, the programme looks to the US, where deep cuts at the Jeff Bezos–owned Washington Post are affecting around a third of its workforce, including hundreds of journalists. Former Washington Post fact-checker and author Glenn Kessler reacts to the impact on journalism and media independence.

Tue, 27 Jan 2026 23:17:20 GMT

The death of 16-year-old Grace Lynch in Finglas has reignited calls for tougher action on scramblers and e-scooters on public roads. After the teenager was fatally struck by a scrambler bike that ran a red light, the Taoiseach acknowledged in the Dáil that proposals to ban scramblers had previously been brought forward — but never enacted.

Guest presenter John Lee is joined by Minister of State Michael Healy-Rae, Social Democrats TD Sinéad Gibney and Irish Independent Political Editor Mary Regan to debate the political fallout.

The focus then turns to the growing Grok deepfake scandal. The Taoiseach has stepped up his criticism of Elon Musk’s platform X, calling for a ruthless approach to protecting women and children.

With the left now holding the highest office in the land, can Ireland’s progressive parties find common ground, and speak with one voice?

Joining the debate: Minister of State Hildegarde Naughton, Sinn Féin TD Mairéad Farrell, Social Democrats TD Cian O’Callaghan, and Naomi O’Leary, The Irish Times Europe Correspondent.

Wednesday 05 November - Ireland’s Housing Crisis: 15 More Years?

Wed, 05 Nov 2025 23:44:23 GMT

Housing Minister James Browne has played down claims that it could take 15 years to end Ireland’s housing crisis — even though the estimate comes from the Department of Finance.

Tuesday 10 June - Will New Rent Rules Protect Tenants Or Push Up Prices?

Tue, 10 Jun 2025 22:38:14 GMT

On The Tonight Show with Kieran Cuddihy

Cabinet has agreed on new rent measures aimed at boosting supply and protecting tenants. Rent caps will now apply nationwide, with stronger protections for existing tenants - but higher rent increases will be allowed in new-build apartments.

Will the changes help tenants—or push prices up and drive landlords away?

Meanwhile, Donald Trump is being accused of intentionally fuelling unrest in LA after sending in 700 marines and thousands of troops to deal with protests. One opponent called it “the deranged fantasy of a dictatorial president.”

Wednesday 04 June 2025 - Starvation as a Weapon? Israel Halts Gaza Aid...Again

Wed, 04 Jun 2025 22:25:27 GMT

Israel suspends aid into Gaza after more Palestinians are killed while queuing for food, amid claims Netanyahu’s government is using starvation as a weapon of war and undermining the UN. As Trinity College moves to cut ties with Israeli organisations, pressure grows on the Irish government to act.

A new EPA report also warns Ireland’s infrastructure is unprepared for the growing threat of climate shocks, calling for urgent action.

Guests include Leila Molana-Allen (PBS), Lazar Berman (The Times of Israel), Juliette Touma (UNRWA), Paul McAuliffe TD, Jennifer Whitmore TD, Fintan Drury, Eoghan McNeill and Prof John Sweeney.

Tuesday 03 June 2025 - Bail Laws & IPAS Centres in Coolock: Ireland’s Policy Challenges

Tue, 03 Jun 2025 22:10:21 GMT

In this episode, we examine two major issues shaping Ireland’s justice and migration policies.

First, the case of 22-year-old Evan Fitzgerald, who died by self-inflicted gunshot wounds after opening fire at the Fairgreen Shopping Centre in Carlow. Fitzgerald was out on bail, despite Garda objections, for charges related to possession of guns, ammunition, and explosive materials. The Taoiseach says a review of bail laws is now underway, though significant changes may be constitutionally challenging.

Then, we look at the government’s decision to scrap plans for an international protection centre at the former Crown Paints Factory in Coolock. Minister of State for Migration Colm Brophy said the change reflects a shift towards State-acquired properties and IPAS centres. The local group ‘Coolock Says No’ called it a “great victory.”

We’ll discuss the implications of these developments and what they mean for justice and housing policy in Ireland.

Wednesday 28 May - RTÉ Defends IT Write-Down And Promo Costs At Oireachtas Hearing

Wed, 28 May 2025 22:32:21 GMT

On The Tonight Show with Kieran Cuddihy

RTÉ executives say they weren’t made aware of a €3.6 million write-down over a failed IT project until February.

Appearing before an Oireachtas committee, the Director General also hit back at what he called "inaccurate" reporting around a leaked news promo — saying extras were used and the final cost will be under €100,000.

Meanwhile, the Dáil rejected a Sinn Féin motion that sought to block the Central Bank from approving the sale of Israeli ‘war bonds’. It was defeated 87–75, though two independents who support the government — Barry Heneghan and Gillian Toole — voted in favour.

Also, concerns are rising over access to U.S. college places after the Trump administration paused student visas and considers tougher social media screening.
