This is a non sectarian broad left podcast that is dedicated to bringing anti capitalists of all tendencies together to discuss the way forward. We all agree that society should and could be better, and it's okay to have differences of opinion on how that is to be achieved. While based in the West of Ireland we look at the world through an internationalist lens. We discuss all aspects of society with a view to creating a better understanding of the world, both for ourselves and anybody who tunes in our podcast.
