Dull enough
A podcast should challenge the listener through a discussion based on a detailed assessment of the issues at hand and not a rehash of the helicopter view on these key issues. Two guys here that are basically on the same page saying the same things in different accents. “The Irish economy is going gang busters”, that phrase sums up this podcast. Ideally this podcast would challenge this narrative based on the hard facts that two people in a couple would struggle to buy a house in Dublin on the average industrial wage. Why is it that globally inequality seems to be on the rise? Pre the financial crisis the EU economy was bigger than the US, what went wrong? Surely that kind of subject would be a good one for a series in this podcast. Also, maybe an assessment on how to stem the migration crisis by sharing enterprise and development more globally so people can stay in their own countries and thrive rather than having to immigrate to work in jobs below their qualification level.

The segment discussed if we compare this generation to the the year ‘87 then this generation is clearly better off. ‘87 is almost 40 years ago. When people say this generation is worse than...Read full review »
