Yes I have a monthly as Gaeilge programe on Near FM. Most of my interviews for a good few years now are as Béarla though and for another weekly programme on the station called Global Solidarity and I even broadcast most of my as Béarla Ireland stuff on this programme even if it they're not particularly global news / global news topics. The presenter Tony Fitzsimons is happy to put out most of the interviews I do as Béarla whatever the topic, although I usually stick to several particular topics in the social justice area. I podcast all of my interviews and have 2 new ones as Gaeilge tomorrow afternoon. i'd say that I have an avearge of 2 interviews per week with most of them being as Béarla. I am doing 2 as Gaeilge tomorrow mainly because my next monthly as Gaeilge clár on Near FM is coming up next week and I like buidling the programme Ar Muin na Muice's Youtube channel up.

Regarding politics, if people from P.ie migrate here the ones on the Left will have to adjust to no personal abuse of people on the Right... and visa versa to some extent.

Also, if Boards does end due to financial fallout I think some members who migrate here will find a shocking cultural difference, especially those on the Left. No longer will they be able to gang together in their cancel culture atmosphere against people on the Right and conservatives in order to effectuate bans and create a safe space echo chamber of Liberal ideology.

There will be no safe spaces for echo chambers here of any persuasion!
