Programme #68 (March 2023)

Alternative Eye is supported by the College of Arts, Social Sciences and Celtic Studies, University of Galway and Flirt FM

In the March 2023 edition of Wireless, we go behind the scenes in the world of audio documentary with independent producer Orla Higgins and feature her new podcast series on anti-racism, Alternative Eye. We also look back at how last month’s World Radio Day was marked by ourselves at Flirt FM and Phoenix FM in west Dublin.
