It’s Episode 96 and we talk to Other Voices’ booker Aoife Woodlock about how the Courage live series came about, we review Haim’s looser, more eclectic Women In Music Pt. III, we discuss the Gender Disparity Report on Irish radio plus songs from Beyonce, SAULT, Soccer Mommy and CMAT.

Episode 94 of the Nialler9 podcast and we’re mostly about RTJ4 along with discussion about Black Lives Matter, representation and perception of Black Irish voices, and the End Direct Provision movement. New songs from Leon Bridges, MuRli, Roosevelt and His Holiness The Dalai Lama and a frank recommend for the Beethoven movie. Yep, the one about the St. Bernard dog.

Episode 92: Niall and Andrea are locked into the 22-track 80-minute behemoth that is the 1975’s fourth album Notes On A Conditional Form and we chat to The Mary Wallopers aka TPM about the home pub live streamed gigs.

Plus new music from the Fontaines D.C, the song of the summer battle heats up, Normal People discussed and Florian Schneider celebrated.
We dissect Fiona Apple’s much-lauded and appraised fifth album Fetch The Bolt Cutters. It’s a dizzying , constantly zig-zagging and delightfully free of convention and very likely, one of the albums of the year. Plus, tracks of the week from CMAT, Patricia Lalor, Jamie xx and it’s officially the worst summer ever.
On Episode 86, we review first album in seven years from The Strokes – The New Abnormal along with songs from The Streets, Tame Impala, Charli XCX and we check in what’s going on or not going on to be more precise with upcoming festivals and emergency funds for artists after last week’s special.

On Episode 85, we review the third album from Honduran-American artist Loreley Rodriguez aka Empress Of, discuss new music from The Strokes, Laura Marling and that dose of a TikTok wannabe Drake.
Our favourite biscuits, favourite radio shows, what will happen when gigs and festivals return? Is it a good or bad time to release music? Which Father John Misty song would you live in?
