It's just the two of us building castles in the sky... This month Ann and Emma are without a guest, so sit back and enjoy what can simply be described as a meandering conversation about everything and anything.  This episode is given over to reflecting on the month that's been; whiskey-tasting and talking to spirits; Limerick Pride; burnout and the importance of taking holidays; ego and how it can make us nervous workaholics; trans rights and nosy neighbours; beard rash; and how life simply isn't a binary or linear experience in any sense.  Ann Blake is a musician, facilitator and theatre-maker from Limerick City.
