Rabharta Gaeilge (Irish Language Episode)
<p>Tá athéirí suntasach ag tarlú thart orainn i saol na Gaeilge – rabharta mór Gaeilge atá ann. Tá an teanga ina gné lárnach agus tathagach i zeitgeist ár linne, agus tá sí ag fágáil a lorg go láidir ar cheol, scannánaíocht, scríbhneoireacht, faisean, agus na meáin ar bhealaigh atá úrnua, fuinniúil, agus spreagúil. </p><p>Cén borradh atá taobh thiar den rabharta mór seo? Cén tionchar atá á imirt ag cultúr agus ealaíon ar an teanga? Cén léargas a thugann sé seo dúinn ar ár bhféiniúlacht náisiúnta, agus cén buntáiste is féidir a bhaint as seo le leas na Gaeilge ó thaobh tacaíochta agus maoiniú de sna blianta atá amach romhainn?</p><p>Beidh Emma Ferrari ag comhrá le triúr a bhfuil tionchar á imirt acu ar chúrsaí cultúrtha, ar an chomhcheangal agus idirspleáchas atá le sonrú idir theanga agus chruthaíocht, an borradh suntasach atá le sonrú in ealaíon Ghaeilge an lae inniu, agus an dóigh a bhfuil an Ghaeilge agus saol an lae inniu fite fuaite le chéile.</p><br><p>The Irish language is in the midst of a remarkable resurgence. From music, film, and literature to fashion and new media, it has become part of the cultural zeitgeist in ways that feel unprecedented, invigorating, and uplifting.</p><p>What’s driving this powerful new wave? How have art and culture shaped its story? What does this moment say about our national identity, and how can this momentum be translated into meaningful funding and long-term support for the language’s future?</p><p>Emma Ferrari sits down with three leading cultural voices to discuss the symbiosis between language and creativity, the flourishing of contemporary Irish-language art, and its intersection with life in modern Ireland.</p><br><p><strong>This episode is in Irish. </strong></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

“Weak Become Heroes”: Culture, Coalition and DIY Collectivism
<p>Audre Lorde described the margin as a site of radical possibility, a place to experiment, play, ask different questions, subvert, resist, and imagine the world anew.</p><br><p>With places to live and create often prohibitively expensive, and places to party and come together increasingly being closed down, our cities can become places of isolation and loneliness. This discussion explores how subcultures, grassroots cultural movements and DIY collectives can foster community, create inclusive spaces, build coalitions, and drive positive change. </p><br><p>With Lava La Rue and Shampain. Moderated by Una Mullally</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Oró Sé do Bheatha ‘Bhaile: Housing, Gentrification & the Gaeltacht
<p>What began as an issue in isolated pockets of Ireland’s cities has become a national crisis affecting every facet of Irish life. Though it consistently tops opinion polls as Irish people’s most important issue and continues to be debated and discussed at every level of media discourse, progress or even clarity on the issue of housing often feels beyond our reach.</p><br><p>Hosted by journalist and author, Una Mullally, this discussion will try to tell this story from a different perspective – to focus on areas less covered and less understood in the current discourse. From gentrification to the Gaeltacht, our panel including artist and musician, Gemma Dunleavy, BÁNÚ spokesperson, Adhna Ní Bhraonáin, and lecturer & housing policy analyst, Lorcan Sirr, will dig into the issues both diffuse and acute facing different communities on our island, and how such communities might be key to charting our collective path forward.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
