Episode Synopsis

Concluding a discussion begun in TPOE 96 with Orla Gartland and TPOE 97 with Conor and Ben, we delve into David Kitt's comments about feeling forced to move away from Dublin and what's next for artists as the housing crisis continues. We talk to Sean aka Kobina, an electronic artist living in Amsterdam about why he moved, if he misses Dublin, the differences in renting there, and if he's coming back anytime soon. Then Maija Sofia, an amazing singer songwriter from Galway who's lived in London before going to Dublin, discusses what life is like amid the reality of the housing crisis and what's next.
