'It's time to pay attention to Irish politics' - New podcast launched ahead of big election year

The battlelines are about to be drawn in Irish politics for 2024 with four potential elections next year, including a possible general election.

Sinn Féin are determined to create a deeper candidate pool for themselves this time round, Fianna Fáil need to align on where their allegiance lies if a new coalition is formed, while Fine Gael have been in power in some shape or form for 12 years running – is it their turn to sit on the opposition bench?

For Matt Cooper and Ivan Yates, it’s time to pay attention to Irish politics!

Their brand-new podcast Path to Power will siphon through the headlines and cut through the spin of Irish politics ahead of an impending election.

Already a proven ratings hit from their time together hosting The Tonight Show, Matt and Ivan aim to arm the electorate with all they need – and want - to know the next time the country goes to the polls, from housing and the cost-of-living crisis to the probability of a border poll.

Unafraid of ruffling feathers and offering uncompromised opinions, this is a podcast not only for the political nerds but the politically curious too – and for those who don’t yet have a clue.

The podcast aims to not only contend with the mudslinging of social media, but the true trenches of political warfare: the constituency, looking at what is really going on within rural communities in Ireland when it comes to the big issues of health, housing, immigration and jobs.

Path to Power is an essential and timely addition to stay informed in the run up to a general election. A premium audio and video podcast series, each weekly episode will be available to listen to on all major audio platforms and to watch on YouTube.
