Could a Westmeath’s songwriter’s song about the first dog in space be selected for Ireland’s song for Eurovision? You’ll also meet a Laois woman set to appear on the U.S. game show The Floor. In farming news, the ICMSA is calling for major changes to power-line maintenance after Storm Éowyn, while Siptu workers at Bord na Móna Recycling are preparing to ballot for strike action over privatisation concerns. Plus, we’ll dive into the skyrocketing demand for personal loans, the viral chocolate sensation taking over Ireland, and a powerful community walk for justice in memory of Joe Drennan. And it will all wrap up with our Friday Panel, where they’ll discuss the stories of the week with some special guests.
