Reboot Republic - Rory Hearne by Tortoise Shack Media

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.

In this Reboot Republic podcast, Rory and Tony discuss the costs of Trump's war - Israel's ongoing attacks on Lebanon, the fuel protests, the need for societal solidarity and how they reflect a deep distress amongst people struggling with the cost of living and where this is all headed.
They draw the parallel between government arrogance and lack of compassion on Homelessness and evictions, which are at record levels, to their dismissive response to the scenes on our streets.
Hubris? Maybe. But not unfounded until now.

In this Reboot Republic, Rory discusses with Dr Phil Lawton of Trinity College the Government's latest housing proposals to remove planning restrictions on living in back-gardens & allow them to be rented.
Phil sets out the international experience of back garden/lane dwellings - and the key differences with Ireland. He sets out real concerns with what the Government is proposing in terms of bad planning and what may become of these in the future. We discuss the intensification of the financialisation of housing with the Minister for Housing, in partnership with institutional investors, making Dublin unaffordable for people to live in.
Philip Lawton is an Assistant Professor of Geography in TCD and an expert in Sustainable Urbanism.

In this Reboot Republic, Rory talks to Louise Bayliss of the St Vincent De Paul about what they are hearing and seeing from the 260,000 people contacting them looking for support. We look at child poverty, and ask why is it still so bad - almost 1 in 5 children go hungry at some point. We also discuss normalising homelessness and what needs to change. Louise Bayliss is Head of Social Justice and Policy at the St Vincent de Paul.
