Summary
Chat and live music with Carol Scott, Peter Gallagher and Sebastien Luthers of CAS, a four-piece Celtic ensemble launching their new album "Tonnta na Maidine" on 9th April at The Cobblestone Pub, Dublin; and with Carli Jefferson and Clair Le Couteur from Lunatraktors, debuting their new show "TimeWeavers" at the Scene + Heard, at Smock Alley Theatre, Dublin, 28th February, 2pm. Did you know the arts are good for your health? Today’s episode presented by Mary Moynihan highlights the role of the arts in maintaining physical and mental well-being and looks at prominent figures using their platforms to advocate for peace and freedom of expression: • Pep Guardiola, Manager of Manchester City F.C., has spoken publicly against war, highlighting the responsibility public figures have to promote peace. • Historian and Author Rutger Bregman addresses issues of censorship and open debate in connection with the BBC. His lecture "A Time of Monsters" forms part of the renowned BBC Reith Lectures - an annual lecture series organised and broadcast by the BBC, long associated with big ideas and robust public discourse. • Ukrainian skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych made headlines during the Winter Olympics after being disqualified for refusing to remove his “helmet of memory,” honouring Ukrainian athletes killed in the conflict with Russia - a powerful example of sport intersecting with remembrance and protest.
