Coming up at 12pm, Niall is joined by Laura Perrins from Gript Media to unpack a hot political moment: Independent TD Catherine Connolly was asked whether she’d hire a former criminal for a role in Áras an Uachtaráin — but she refused to be drawn, saying only that she supports rehabilitation.

That raises the big question: Would you give someone who’s served time for a serious crime a second chance — even in one of Ireland’s highest offices?

Niall and Laura debate where the line should be drawn between forgiveness and accountability, and listeners call in with their views. Some say everyone deserves a fresh start once they’ve paid their debt to society — others argue that trust and responsibility must be earned, not handed out.

Tune in for a fiery discussion on crime, redemption, and what rehabilitation really means in public life.
