[PREVIEW] Bertie - First Term & the Age of Tribunals (Part 2)
Shite Talk: A Bonus Irish History PodcastShow Notes
Helllo! Thanks to all of ye that subscribed for the Bertie content, and of course thanks to everyone who's been here for a while as well! These episodes are taking longer to edit than I hoped but we're trying to pack a lot in them, we should have the first tribunal episode ready to upload in the next few days, but until then here's the second main Bertie episode without any ads for ye to enjoy. It covers his first term as Taoiseach from 1997 - 2002 and the origin of the tribunals that eventually lead to him stepping down. Hope you enjoy, and if anyone has any Bertie stories they want us to include in the next upcoming episode just send us a message here!

Hello, hope you enjoyed the first real episode on Tuesday! Here's another shite talk episode to catch up with what we're at, and plug some live shows we have coming up:
What a week it's been for the nation, a moment we'll all remember and cherish. Many people said the country wouldn't be able to band together and pack it out, but thanks to everyone who helped us fill our Mindfield tent at Electric Picnic.
Hello! Here's the audio from our live show at the Mindfield tent at Electric Picnic. We mostly talked about former president Cearbhall ó Dálaigh but there was some shite talk about early music festivals and Joe Dolan as well. You can follow the slide show along here if you like, it'll be feel like you were there in the room!
Hello, here's another episode of us talking shite about our upcoming Electric Picnic show, if you're going to the festival come say hi on Sunday morning!
Hello! We're back with another film club episode; Lenny Abrahamson's 2007 film Garage. Possibly Pat Short's debut as a serious film actor and by god it's depressing, but definitely worth a watch. We've also started a Letterboxd list of every Irish film we could think of if you want to check it, and feel free to leave suggestions for more movies below! This is the pool we'll be taking future film club episodes from.
