Covid-19: No going back, but what's ahead? Interview with Cian on Left Inside 22:46

för 5 years sedan22:46

22:46

Bottom Dog host Cian was interviewed on the Left Inside podcast this week, about a recent article he wrote in which he argues Covid-19 will be an era-defining moment. He discusses the long-term impacts and that article's call for the socialist left to rally around the call for a left government, with socialist policies and what such a government would mean. During the Covid-19 crisis I’ve been working with a group of other left and socialist activists in Ireland to produce a new podcast, Left Inside which offers a weekly critical look at news, politics and culture from the left. It’s a relaxed and funny panel discussion, including socialist member of the Irish parliament Paul Murphy . If you like the episode, please make sure to subscribe to Left Inside.

It’s a relaxed and funny panel discussion, including socialist member of the Irish parliament Paul Murphy . This week we have an interview with Lenny Abrahamson, director of the hit TV show Normal People and outspoken critic of inequality and oppression. Lenny & Paul talk about creating Normal People, plans for a possible sequel, the underfunding of the arts and how his politics influence his works. Following the interview Cian, Aprille & Jessy discuss why they love the show and the book, and how the arts and capitalism clash.
