Le dhá chluiche i gcoinne Iosrael ar na bacáin d'fhoireann sacair Phoblacht na hÉireann, tá Seán Ó Conaill linn le plé a dhéanamh ar an bhealach a mbíonn an spórt agus an pholaitíocht fite fuaite lena chéile i rith na hama. Ó Bhaile Átha Cliath, cluinimid ó HK Ní Shioradáin faoi Múicin, leagan úr Gaeilge den dráma, Piglet, aistrithe ag HK féin. Insíonn Éadaoin Heussaff, gníomhaí aeráide, dúinn faoin nasc idir cúrsaí aeráide agus an aimsir throm a bhí againn le roinnt míonna anuas. As the Republic of Ireland soccer team face two games against Israel, Seán Ó Conaill joins us to discuss the perennial interplay of sport and politics.From Dublin, we hear from HK Ní Shioradáin about Múicín, a new translation of the play Piglet. Climate activist Éadaoin Heussaff tells us about the connection between climate issues and the severe weather we have experienced over the past few months.
