Did you have a summer job? Do your children currently have one? When is too young to start working or should teenagers just be given the summer off? Saoirse Hanley of the Irish independent recently did a deep dive into the area - she joins Bobby to discuss as does Sinead English a career management specialist from ‘HILT'.

Solar power has gone from being a niche technology to one of the fastest-growing parts of Ireland’s energy landscape.
But as the sector expands, there are big questions around investment, grid capacity, planning, and whether Ireland has the infrastructure needed to make the most of this renewable resource.
So, to look at the future of solar in Ireland, Bobby is joined by three people working across the industry:
● Morgan Pierce, CEO of Solar Smart
● Declan Cullinane as Managing Director, Amarenco Ireland
● Justin Brown, CEO & Co-Founder of Power Capital Renewable Energy

10 years ago Bobby interviewed a man called Emmet Savage, who was building a subscription service for stock recommendations. After a decade, and a few brand transformations, the company, now called MyWallSt, has finally taken off. Emmet joins Bobby to discuss.
