Show Notes
It’s that time again as the local and European elections draw near, but the list of candidates for the ballots has raised eyebrows. A self-styled ‘shock jock’, a former Eurovision Song Contest host and all sorts of anti-establishment headline-makers. Why are we seeing so many ‘celebs’ on the ballot paper this time around? Host: Fionnán Sheahan. Guest: Kevin Doyle
