You can't psychoanalyse the Irish

You can't psychoanalyse the Irish

In E 46 AA discusses how nice it would be to just do a normal thing, how mentally exhausting lockdown is. Tries to put some nuance on the recent Protests in Dublin/Ireland and place them in a historical framework of Irish society and culture. Organise something outdoors and lads will show up for the ruck! Examines our mythical rebellious image and complicated relationship to authority. In the second half AA contemplates the influence of big tech, the idea that we are entering a new age of Feudalism, what that might mean and considers what society will look like if we all become UBI serfs. With an extra helping of madness this week!!!!
