Pantisocracy

10.00pm RTÉ Radio 1

The airwaves haven’t been the same since Panti Bliss’s last takeover, but that all changes as the cabaret of conversations returns tonight.

In the first episode of this new season, the host welcomes three creative people whose beloved projects have been significantly impacted by the current global pandemic and ongoing lockdown.

Panti chats with writer Mark O’Connell about new book Notes on An Apocalypse, Indian-Irish novelist Cauvery Madhavan, who discusses new novel The Tainted, and singer and actor Lisa Lambe, who performs material from her second solo album Juniper.
