Poll: Yay or Nay to the NRC Taxi Ad
This is the NRC Christmas radio ad – a new addition to the love/hate list in the style of Marmite, Daniel O’Donnell and transubstantiation. Opinion is divided in Culch Towers, but nobody really cares what we think, what do you think? Yeah, we do polls now…

I Heart Tea Crowd Episode 8 – Dermot and Dave
It’s here… it’s finally here!

7 Deadly Wins #1: The Underrated Moments of #Aras11

The Podcast Sessions #1
My problem is finding the podcasts I like. And to be fair, there are some great ones out there. Some from the man on the street, some from the big boys of the media world – some, like my own, maybe, fall in the middle ground and often somtimes don’t get that little umph or [...]

Video: OMG it’s Jedward!
So, a weird thing happened to us yesterday. There we were, minding our own business (for a change), checking our email (for a change) and we come across one called ‘Message from Jedward’.

However, that doesn’t proclude me from learning about the greener side of life and [...]
