CEO no shows, ‘inappropriate phone calls’ and zero apologies – An Oireachtas showdown for Rowing Ireland | Ep 3

We Irish have always talked about the weather. It’s our great shared obsession - the small talk, the punchline and the meme that does the rounds when the rain refuses to stop.  However, as increasingly violent storms batter our shores and flood our towns, for many across the country, what was once a national pastime has become a source of real anxiety.  So, what does climate change actually look like on the ground in Irish communities?  And can we keep up with a crisis that’s moving faster than ever?

‘We saved 14 houses from the sea’: What climate change looks like in Ireland

It's been a busy week in Irish politics. As the country reels from Storm Chandra, government ministers have accused Met Éireann of withholding information about the extent of the storm.    

The death of Grace Lynch has placed the Government's inability to police scramblers at the heart of political debate.   

Cónal Thomas joins Tabitha Monahan to discuss the Government's next steps in the wake of the tragedy, and to look ahead to ministers’ St Patrick’s Day assignments, but what will await the Taoiseach in Washington?   
Today's podcast comes from our sister podcast Indo Politics, where you can find new episodes every Friday.

Indo Politics: The fallout from Storm Chandra and what awaits the Taoiseach in Washington on St Patrick's Day? 

Retail royalty Brown Thomas and Arnotts have stood as big-ticket landmarks for shoppers on both sides of the River Liffey for generations, encountering new owners, fires, floods and even the War of Independence along the way. This week, however, they faced the wrath of a consumer watchdog and a date in Dublin District Court. How did a Black Friday misstep land them in trouble? And why did it only cost €1,000?
