PTSB announces a large cut in mortgage interest rates and more could be ahead. We compare the Irish and UK markets and explore if this (unfortunately!) will lead to house prices increasing again.
It’s been a busy week in Silicon Valley with the next generation of artificial intelligence products being released, we explore the impact AI might have on jobs and the economy, and will it be a net positive or negative? We also look at how it might affect how we date one another and if our virtual assistants can find the perfect match.

With Elon Musk sounding the alarm on the birth rate crisis that affected the Roman Empire and now our generation, we examine the causes and possible solutions and if history is doomed to repeat itself. Good news might finally be on the horizon for the Dublin rental market and we examine the increase in housing stock while also looking at the effect of rent controls on the housing market and their unintended consequences. We also review the recent UK local and mayoral elections and discuss if Labour’s fait accompli general election win may be just a little bit premature?

Do you need to have a partner or significant other to buy a home? We examine the rise of dual income mortgages and has there been correlation or causation to higher house prices in Ireland and across the world. With asylum seekers reportedly heading to Ireland en masse because of the UK’s ‘Rwanda Bill’, which has earmarked the country as safe for deportation, we look at where does the spat go from here – is it a bun right or something much bigger? And finally with the abuse of politicians ever increasing (including the former Taoiseach Leo Varadkar this week), we examine where our political system goes from here and will anyone young want to get involved in politics anymore.

What did the government know before proposing to widen the definition of the family at the March referendums? We look ahead to what asylum applications might do in the coming quarters, and how it feeds into politics. As Paschal Donohoe takes to Instagram to share the latest business grant, we discuss if corporate welfare is the new norm in the Irish economy. We respond to a listener who asks if politicians have woken up yet to Ireland’s rising population and the need for the infrastructure to match it. Finally, we discuss an Economist article on Gen-Z and their economic and social prospects.
