  • Bringing back the bedsit? Housing Minister James Browne’s ‘radical’ new apartment plan
    Housing — it's the defining issue of a generation. Now, the Housing Minister has unveiled what’s being billed as a radical plan to ‘revolutionise’ the housing sector. Critics have already taken aim at key aspects of the plan such as smaller apartments and fewer windows, but is this exactly the kind of radical shift needed to finally boost supply?

  • 40 years of low fares and high drama: How Ryanair changed Europe one controversy at a time
    40 years ago this week, at 8.30am on July 8, 1985, a 15-seater aircraft with a full complement of passengers took off from Waterford airport to London Gatwick on the inaugural flight of a new Irish airline called Ryanair. Air travel, and in some ways Ireland itself, would never be the same again. Fast forward four decades and you’d be hard-pressed to find someone who hasn’t travelled with Ryanair and, let's be honest, complained about them. But, despite the extra charges, minimal leg room and marketing stunts, we just keep coming back for more. Host: Kevin Doyle Guest: John MulliganSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • The bankrupt Dublin Jeweller, the fake gems and the missing diamonds
    In recent weeks, The Sunday Independent revealed that a customer took legal action against Empress Fine Jewels, which was ordered to pay her nearly €35,000, after diamond rings she entrusted to the store were reported stolen while being taken by a pensioner to another location to be cleaned. She received a call the next day from the jeweller, telling her the rings had been stolen from the pensioner on a Dublin Bus. Another customer of the same Dublin-based jeweller was “disappointed but not surprised” to learn that a €3,000 emerald and diamond ring she purchased contains fake gemstones. Ali Bracken joins Kevin Doyle to speak about her investigation into Empress Fine Jewels. Host; Kevin Doyle, Guest; Ali Bracken See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
