Hope, Courage and Community
This Reboot Republic episode explores public attitudes towards migration, the rise of hate and far-right mobilisation in Ireland, and how communities are responding. Experts from the Hope and Courage Collective, Niamh McDonald and Edel McGinley join Rory to discuss the findings of their new report 'Ireland in Focus 2025, Mind the Gap,' which highlights the influence of online hate, shifting narratives, the gap between perception and reality and the importance of community resilience.

The conversation covers energy security, renewable infrastructure, housing, and the need for a state construction company to address Ireland's housing crisis. It's all about inflation.
We also discuss why a state construction company is needed, its benefits and why we wouldn't be in this housing crisis if it was set up a decade ago.

In this Reboot Republic, Rory talks to Poet and teacher Mikey Cullen about his decision to join the new flotilla heading to break the siege on Gaza. We talk about history repeating itself - how genocide continues in Gaza by Israel despite international law, our common commitment to never again, and finding meaning and purpose in a world where social media tries to commodify us into turning against each other and blaming the other instead of the billionaires destroying our societies and the planet.
