The Indo DailyThe 'forgotten' industry - the plight of the Irish pub during Covid-19
Irish pubs have been closed for over a year because of Covid19 restrictions.
Along with the rest of the hospitality industry in Ireland, they have endured one of the longest shutdowns in Europe.
How have they survived and what does the future hold for the Irish pub industry?
In this pilot news podcast, host Denise Calnan explores the issues with contributor and Social Affairs Correspondent Amy Molloy, who has spent the last year following the plight of the Irish pub.
We also visit Dublin publican Dee Costello - the owner of the much-loved Kilmainham spot, The Royal Oak to hear what life has been like living above a pub with closed doors.
